Abstract

Hypertension remains one of the leading causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide. Regular follow-up visits are essential to maintain control of blood pressure and prevent complications. However, adherence to scheduled health controls among hypertensive patients remains a major challenge, particularly at the primary healthcare level. This study aimed to describe control adherence among hypertensive patients attending Posyandu Integrasi Layanan Primer (ILP) Mars in the working area of Trenggalek Primary Health Center.A descriptive quantitative study was conducted involving 24 hypertensive patients selected using accidental sampling from a population of 50 patients. Data was collected using structured questionnaires between April and May 2026 and analyzed using descriptive (univariate) statistics. Most respondents were female (91.7%), aged 58–67 years (58.3%), had elementary school education (50%), and had attended Posyandu ILP for more than one year (54.2%). Overall, 83.3% of respondents demonstrated adherence to scheduled hypertension control visits. Most hypertensive patients attending Posyandu ILP Mars demonstrated good adherence to routine follow-up visits. Continuous health education and strengthening community-based primary healthcare programs are necessary to sustain patient adherence and reduce hypertension-related complications.

Abstract

Hypertension control depends heavily on sustained medication adherence and self management, and poor adherence remains a major barrier to reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.  The HBM has been widely used to explain why patients engage in or avoid anti hypertensive treatment by focusing on perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits, barriers, self efficacy, and cues to action. The method used a library research method by critically reviewing academic oriented literature. There were 10 research journals adjusted to the literature review problem. The results show that the Health Belief Model is associated with hypertension treatment compliance, with the strongest support for improved short term adherence and blood pressure control in intervention studies, while observational studies show that the most predictive construct varies by population. Overall, the literature supports a positive but context-dependent relationship between the Health Belief Model and hypertension treatment compliance.

Abstract

The digitalization of health information systems represents a strategic move by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia to enhance the accuracy of nutritional status data for children under five, thereby supporting decision-making for stunting prevention programs. This community service initiative aimed to analyze the implementation of the Sigizi Terpadu (Integrated Nutrition Information System) application and identify the causes of discrepancies in nutritional monitoring coverage calculations—comparing the manual Posyandu Recap (APR) application method with the digital Sigizi Terpadu system—at the Ngasem Community Health Center (Puskesmas) in Kediri Regency. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, utilizing in-depth interviews with the health center's nutrition team, field observations, and root cause analysis via Fishbone (Ishikawa) diagrams. The analysis revealed significant differences in 2023 reporting figures: Sigizi Terpadu recorded a coverage rate of 53.7%, whereas the manual APR method showed 49.5%; notably, neither figure met the Health Office's target indicator of 86%. Key factors contributing to this discrepancy included the use of dummy National Identity Numbers (NIK) in the system, errors or bugs caused by surges in national user traffic, irregular attendance of children at Posyandu (disrupting N/D status tracking), limited variety in Supplementary Feeding (PMT) menus, and constraints on village funding. Implemented solutions included data cleaning, the standardization of reporting exclusively through Sigizi Terpadu starting in early 2025, and enhanced education for community health volunteers and parents.
