Abstract

Purpose: Dental caries is a prevalent chronic disease among children, affecting up to 93% in Indonesia. This study aims to optimize the role of teachers as today's smile heroes through empowerment initiatives. Methods: Many parents still believe that dental issues in children are insignificant because their primary teeth will eventually be replaced by permanent ones. However, evidence shows that the first permanent molars typically emerge around 6-7 years and are most susceptible to caries. This susceptibility is due to children frequently consuming cariogenic foods such as chocolate, candy, cakes, and sugary drinks without maintaining proper oral hygiene. Such habits increase the risk of dental caries, which can lead to severe health issues like gingivitis and periodontitis, affecting food mastication. The exposure to advertisements for cariogenic foods on social media and television also influences children's purchasing behavior. The current availability of school-based dental caries prevention programs (UKGS) is inadequate. Empowering school teachers as smile heroes can maximize the potential resources within schools. Results: Trained school teachers can help detect dental health issues early, allowing for timely interventions before problems escalate into more severe conditions. By empowering teachers as smile heroes in dental caries prevention, schools can create an environment that supports optimal dental and oral health for children, promoting healthy smiles. This initiative is crucial to support the “Indonesia Free from Caries 2030” program by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, aiming to reduce the prevalence of dental caries among children. Conclusion: Empowering school teachers is essential for improving children's dental health. Trained teachers can effectively detect and address dental problems early, fostering a supportive environment for optimal oral hygiene and contributing to the national goal of reducing childhood dental caries.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to identify the risk factors for Tuberculosis (TB) through a comprehensive literature review. Understanding these risk factors is essential for effectively preventing and managing TB. Methods: The study employed a literature review method, which is beneficial for obtaining relevant research and synthesizing previous findings. Data sources included national and international journals on TB risk factors obtained from Google Scholar, covering publications from 2019 to 2024. The data analysis involved identifying the research design, study location, publication year, sample size, and number of variables examined. Results: The analysis provided an overview of studies on TB risk factors, including 10 studies conducted domestically and internationally from 2019 to 2024, with the highest number of studies published in 2020. The identified risk factors for TB include age > 75 years, male gender, low knowledge levels, unemployment, history of TB contact, active smoking, low education levels, and living in poorly ventilated houses. Conclusion: The study concludes that several risk factors contribute to the incidence of TB, such as advanced age, male gender, low socioeconomic status, and poor living conditions. Recommendations include encouraging individuals living in poorly ventilated homes to adopt Clean and Healthy Living Behaviors (PHBS) by improving ventilation to allow sunlight and air exchange. Additionally, there is a need for increased public access to TB-related information to enhance knowledge. Governmental efforts are crucial in implementing TB prevention programs, educating on proper cough and sneeze etiquette, and enhancing early detection to break the transmission chain.

Abstract

Purpose: Establishing a bullying prevention and case management system for adolescents in Junior High School. Content: The establishment of this system is based on law No.35 of 2014 the policies interpreted as efforts to prevent and handle violence against children and creating a safe and comfortable learning environment. Implementation of this law is still not optimal due to the lack of involvement from all parties included. Schools are expected to collaborate in creating policies in the form of a decree to initiate a bullying prevention and intervention system in schools, supported by conducting socialization and seminars regarding the roles of teachers, parents, and students in addressing bullying cases. Additionally, the formation of peer counselors in schools through collaboration between the school and health centers or universities is encouraged.It is expected that the number of bullying cases can be reduced and prevented, the availability of reporting services for students that makes students feel safe and comfortable at school, and school will get resources from collaborations with many parties. Challenges in implementing this system include limited resources, both financially and human resources available, inconsistencies in efforts to build the system due to the long time frame, mismatch of visions and missions, and lack of coordination among all parties involved. The strengths of this system are the support from students and parents to protect their right, improved student achievement, an efficient mechanism for handling bullying cases, and creating an inclusive school culture. Implementation of this system can address bullying cases and create an optimal learning environment in schools.

Abstract

Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are primarily caused by lifestyle and behavioral factors and contribute significantly to the prevalence of more severe health issues. Early intervention through screening is crucial to identify individuals at risk and manage these diseases before they escalate. School Health Units (UKS) embody the principles of health education, health services, and promoting a healthy school environment, which can significantly enhance student health and create a conducive learning environment. This study aims to promote the role of UKS in the routine early detection of NCDs among school adolescents. Methods: This study reviews existing literature and examines the current trends of NCDs in Indonesian adolescents. It highlights the discrepancy between the intended comprehensive role of UKS and its current curative-focused practice. The study proposes the implementation of Integrated Development Posts (POSBINDU) within schools as a strategic measure for early screening and prevention of NCDs. Results: The findings indicate a rising trend of NCDs shifting from the elderly to adults and adolescents in Indonesia. Research shows that adolescents are increasingly affected by NCDs, with prevalence rates rising over the past decades. Most adolescents in Indonesia attend secondary schools, spending a significant portion of their day on school premises. However, the current role of UKS is limited to providing curative health services, which is misaligned with the comprehensive health promotion values of UKS. Conclusion: Optimizing the role of UKS by integrating POSBINDU can provide an essential early screening tool for detecting NCDs among school adolescents. This integration can facilitate immediate intervention by healthcare centers and hospitals, thereby enhancing the overall health management system for adolescents.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to identify the barriers faced by online motorcycle taxi drivers, understand their perceptions of occupational diseases (PAK) and work accidents, and examine the rules and facilities provided by companies to support the implementation of occupational health and safety (K3) principles. Methods: This qualitative study uses a phenomenological approach. Informants were online motorcycle taxi drivers selected through purposive sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected through in-depth interviews supported by observations. The data analysis was inductive. Results: The informants were male, aged between 30 and 35 years, from the companies Gojek and Grab. The interview results revealed that the perceived barriers for online motorcycle taxi drivers were primarily related to order availability and weather conditions. Drivers' perceptions of PAK were influenced by various factors, and the application of occupational health principles was seen as essential in mitigating the risk of PAK. Similarly, drivers' perceptions of work accidents were influenced by several factors, with the application of safe driving principles being crucial to reducing the risk of such accidents. The rules and facilities provided by the companies sufficiently support the drivers in implementing K3 principles concerning work safety, whereas, in terms of health, the support was limited to facilitating health insurance registration and payment through the app. Conclusion: Online motorcycle taxi drivers face several barriers in their work. The application of health principles can mitigate the risk of PAK, and safe driving principles can reduce the risk of work accidents. Solutions to support online motorcycle taxi drivers in implementing K3 principles include 1) peer support, 2) provision of regular health check facilities, 3) work readiness checklists, and 4) K3 training.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to understand students' perceptions of occupational health and safety (OHS) management in laboratories to reduce the risk of work accidents. Methods: This qualitative study employs a phenomenological approach. Participants were selected using purposive sampling based on criteria established by the researchers, and data were collected through in-depth interviews. Results: The findings indicate that students are aware of and understand the importance of OHS management in laboratories. Individual work accidents in the laboratory were primarily due to personal negligence, often resulting from carelessness and lack of focus. The use of standard or specialized personal protective equipment (PPE) is crucial in reducing the risk of work accidents in the laboratory, following the applicable Standard Operating Procedures (SOP). The condition of the laboratory itself is also significant in minimizing work accident risks, as good ventilation systems greatly influence safety. Proper air exchange processes and the influx of fresh air into the room must be adequately maintained. The better the air circulation, the healthier the laboratory environment will be. Conclusion: This study concludes that numerous factors, both individual and environmental, can cause work accidents in laboratories. Students perceive the use of PPE as a small but essential step in reducing laboratory accidents. The PPE used must be comfortable, non-intrusive to work, and provide effective protection against specific hazards.

Abstract

Objective: This initiative was carried out to compare the existing HIV screening program and proposed HIV-Self testing at the workplace program. This policy is expected to complement the current HIV screening program to increase HIV case detection in unreachable cases. Ministry of Health report on HIV in 2022 showed an appealing result obtained from a limited implementation of HIVST that the majority of clients (83%) were those who were undergoing HIV screening for the first time, so this pilot shows that HIVST is quite effective in reaching sub-populations that HIV testing services have never reached. Recommended by WHO, HIVST at the workplace may increase the uptake of HIV testing by offering workers greater confidentiality and autonomy and saving time for workers and healthcare providers. Hence, adopting HIVST at the workplace is one of the best options to reach a 90-90-90 cascade in Indonesia. Content: This initiative is supported by a comprehensive education campaign, test kit training, and counselling and support services for those in need. The program's goal is to reduce HIV-related stigma, raise HIV/AIDS awareness, and discover undiagnosed HIV cases in the workplace. These activities contribute to a better awareness of HIV/AIDS, a reduction in stigma and prejudice, the finding of undiagnosed cases, improved access to care and support, and a lower load on the healthcare system. Stigma and discrimination, restricted accessibility, knowledge, privacy issues, and resource availability are all challenges. Nonetheless, enablers include leader support, access flexibility, staff education and awareness, post-test counselling and assistance, and continous evaluation and modification. Thus, workplace HIV self-testing (HIVST) programs provide an innovative approach and potential to be an effective tool in community-wide HIV/AIDS prevention and management efforts.

Abstract

Purpose: This research aims to identify, categorize, and evaluate the effectiveness, efficiency, and environmental impact of various methods used to control rodent vectors in different studies. Method: This research uses a scoping review method with a search of the PubMed database for free full-text articles using the keyword "rodent vector control." Out of 3366 research journals found, only 9 met the inclusion criteria. Information was collected from these 9 journals regarding the control methods used, their effectiveness and efficiency, as well as the reported environmental and public health impacts over the publication range of 2014-2024. Data analysis was conducted qualitatively by presenting and compiling the research report. Results: Each rodent vector control method has its advantages and disadvantages. Physical methods such as rat traps are cost-efficient and have minimal contamination with hazardous substances for the environment, but they are less effective for killing large numbers of rats. Chemical methods like rodenticides are highly effective in reducing rat populations, but they can be toxic to human health and cause long-term environmental contamination. Biological methods such as natural predators and pets are more environmentally friendly but require time to achieve effectiveness. Ultimately, the most appropriate rodent vector control method must be chosen based on specific needs and situations and should be integrated. Conclusion: Rodent vector control requires an integrated approach, including biological, chemical, and physical methods, while considering their long-term impact on public health and the environment. The implementation of biological methods needs to consider ecosystem balance, while the use of chemicals must be cautious to avoid harmful side effects on environmental and public health. Integrating physical approaches should also be applied to reduce rodent habitats without damaging the surrounding environment. Effective and safe rodent vector control can be achieved, supporting sustainable public health.
