This study aims to determine the effect of health education on pregnant women's knowledge and attitudes regarding Congenital Hypothyroidism Screening (CHS) at Dermawati Clinic, Tembung Deli Serdang, in 2025.

The research instrument was a knowledge and attitude questionnaire, and data analysis used a t-test.The results showed that regarding knowledge, before the intervention, the majority of respondents in the control group had poor knowledge (90.3%), and after the intervention, all respondents in the experimental group had good knowledge (100%). Regarding attitude, before the intervention, all respondents in the control group had negative attitudes (100%), while after the intervention, all respondents in the experimental group had positive attitudes (100%). The statistical test results showed a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05) for both variables, indicating a significant effect of health education on pregnant women's knowledge and attitudes regarding SHK. Results;The conclusion of this study is that health education delivered in a structured, relevant, and interactive manner can increase knowledge and shape positive attitudes among pregnant women toward SHK implementation.

Abstract

According to Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 87 of 2014 concerning population development and family development, family planning and family information systems. The family planning (KB) program is a program that seeks to regulate childbearing, spacing and ideal age of birth, manage pregnancy, through the promotion of protection and assistance in accordance with reproductive rights to create a quality family. Many couples of childbearing age still have limited knowledge about implant contraception, including how it works, benefits, side effects, and its safety as a long-term contraceptive method. This results in low interest and trust in the use of implant contraception. The purpose of this study is to determine the factors that influence the decision of fertile couples in using implant contraception. This type of research uses a survey method with a cross-sectional approach, namely where measurements or observations are carried out simultaneously on the independent and dependent variable data. The population is all PUS mothers who use implant contraception in Bandar Khalifah Village, namely 45 people by total sampling. Data analysis uses the chi-square test and multivariate with logistic regression tests. Based on the results of the logistic regression test, this study shows that there is an influence of knowledge on implant contraception in Bandar Khalifah Village, Percut Sei Tuan District, Deli Serdang Regency with an Exp (B) value of 103.964. The conclusion of this study is that the variable of knowledge is the most influential factor on the use of contraceptive implants in PUS in Bandar Khalifah Village. Therefore, health workers should provide counseling and promotion to the community, especially in PUS, about contraceptive implants so that the community's knowledge and attitudes become better. The results of this study can be a basis for health workers, especially midwives and family planning officers, in developing more effective and targeted educational, counseling, and approach strategies to increase the use of contraceptive implants.
