Abstract

This Community Service activity was held on September 21, 2025, at the Elderly Posyandu (Integrated Health Post for Elderly People) in Bibis Luhur Village, Banjarsari District, Surakarta, with 84 participants. The main challenges faced by the partners were the elderly's low level of knowledge regarding hypertension, the lack of regular blood pressure checks, and the lack of skills among cadres in conducting blood pressure checks and simple acupressure techniques. The activities included providing educational materials on hypertension, pre- and post-tests, blood pressure checks, and acupressure training at points PC6, HT7, and GB20. Results showed an increase in participant knowledge based on the post-test results, as well as in the cadres' ability to perform blood pressure checks independently. Participants were also able to practice acupressure and demonstrated high enthusiasm throughout the activity. This program resulted in increased community understanding, enhanced cadre skills, and a commitment to continue regular blood pressure monitoring by Posyandu cadres. This activity is expected to become a sustainable effort in preventing and managing hypertension in the community.

Abstract

Nutrisi terbaik dalam kualitas dan kuantitas pada saat masa pertumbuhan otak yang terjadi dari 0 bulan sampai 6 bulan terkandung dalam ASI Ekslusif. Praktik pemberian ASI eksklusif. dari 276 bayi usia (0-6bulan) Di Wilayah Sungai Beliung Pontianak hanya 187 (67,75%) yang melaksanakan ASI eksklusif. Sedangkan, presentase bayi usia kurang dari 6 bulan mendapatkan ASI ekslusif di Kota Pontianak sebesar 57,6% dengan target 50%. Walaupun telah memenuhi target, faktanya lebih dari setengah bayi usia 0-6 bulan di wilayah Kelurahan Sungai Beliung telah mendapatkan MP ASI dini yang memberikan dampak kesehatan yang kurang baik, diantaranya meningkatkan kasus stunting dan masalah gizi lainnya. Daun katuk berkhasiat untuk menstimulasi pengeluaran air susu ibu sedangkan kandungan steroid dan polifenol didalamnya berfungsi untuk menaikkan kadar prolactin dengan demikian produksi ASI dapat meningkat. Daun lembayung bermanfaat untuk menstimulasi hormon oksitosin dan prolaktin seperti alkoloid, saponin, polifenol, steroid, dan flavonoid sehingga dapat meningkatkan produksi ASI. Sasaran dalam kegiatan ini adalah Ibu Hamil TM 3, kelompok ibu menyusui, dan kader yang berjumlah 50 orang didukung oleh mitra yaitu bidan wilayah kerja Puskesmas Perumnas II. Pelaksanaan kegiatan dilakukan dengan bentuk Penyuluhan tentang Peningkatan Produksi ASI melalui Pemberian Kombinasi Daun Katuk dan Lembayung pada tanggal 13 Juni 2025. Dari 50 peserta yang hadir, tim mengambil sampel 30 peserta. Analisis data dilakukan dengan uji Wilcoxon dan didapatkan hasil p value = 0.003 sehingga dapat disimpulkan terdapat perbedaan pengetahuan yang bermakna antara sebelum dan sesudah mendapatkan penyuluhan tentang Peningkatan Produksi ASI melalui Pemberian Daun Katuk dan Lembayung.

Abstract

Urinary incontinence is an involuntary leakage of urine commonly experienced by postpartum women due to pelvic floor muscle weakness. This condition can interfere with daily activities and reduce quality of life. Physiotherapy serves as an effective non-pharmacological approach for the prevention and management of urinary incontinence, particularly through pelvic floor muscle exercises such as Kegel exercise and its variations. This educational activity aimed to improve the understanding of postpartum women at Posyandu Mulyorejo Asparaga RW 4 regarding the prevention and management of urinary incontinence through physiotherapy-based exercises. The study employed a one-group pre–post test design, in which participants completed questionnaires before and after the educational intervention to assess program effectiveness. Educational materials were delivered using leaflets and practical demonstrations of pelvic floor muscle exercises, including classic Kegel exercise, half squat, bridge exercise, cat–cow stretch, cross-legged breathing, and supine relaxation. Post-test results showed a significant increase in participants’ understanding, with all respondents providing correct answers to every post-test question. The physiotherapy education program proved effective in enhancing awareness and skills among postpartum women to independently perform pelvic floor muscle exercises at home as a non-pharmacological strategy to prevent and reduce symptoms of urinary incontinence.

Abstract

Low Back Pain (LBP) is a musculoskeletal disorder resulting from improper ergonomics. Low back pain is a highly prevalent global health issue that leads to activity limitations and work absenteeism. One occupation with a high ergonomic risk is office work involving the use of computers or laptops. Among office workers at Mining Company X, 96.4% were found to have a moderate ergonomic risk and were classified as requiring corrective action based on the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) method. In addition, these office workers reported moderate severity of low back pain complaints. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between working posture and low back pain complaints among office workers at Mining Company X. This study employed an observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The respondents consisted of all office workers at Mining Company X, totaling 30 participants.

The results showed that the majority of workers had hazardous working postures (67%) and experienced moderate low back pain complaints (67%). There was a moderately strong relationship between working posture and low back pain (C = 0.482). It can be concluded that there is a relationship between working posture and low back pain among office workers at Mining Company X.

Abstract

Low back pain (LBP) is a common musculoskeletal disorder that often occurs due to excessive muscle contraction. It may also be caused by heavy workloads and long working hours. Workers across various sectors generally experience LBP and can interfere with daily activities. Understanding preventive measures for LBP is crucial to reduce its occurrence. This community service activity aimed to provide education to workers regarding LBP, including its definition, causes, risk factors, ergonomic working positions, and stretching exercises as preventive strategies. The program was implemented using the Participatory Education Method (PEM) approach. The activities were carried out through poster media, interactive discussions in the form of question-and-answer sessions to identify workers’ problems, and simulations of stretching exercises that can be practiced during work breaks. The results showed a significant increase in workers’ knowledge about LBP. This improvement in understanding is expected to raise workers’ awareness of maintaining ergonomic posture and performing regular stretching exercises, thereby reducing the incidence of LBP in the workplace.

Abstract

Neck pain is a common health problem that often affects workers, especially those who engage in strenuous physical activity or have poor posture habits. Every job carries the risk of accidents or occupational diseases. One example is a non-ergonomic posture or body position during work (not in accordance with the principles of comfort and safety) which can trigger prolonged pain in certain parts of the body. Education from physiotherapy is very useful in helping workers understand the importance of good posture and how to reduce the risk of neck pain. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to measure the effectiveness of physiotherapy education regarding neck pain in improving the posture of workers at the UPTD Agribisnis North Pontianak. The method used in this activity was to provide health promotion counseling regarding physiotherapy education related to neck pain and posture. To measure workers' understanding, a pre-test and a post-test were conducted in the form of questions.
