Abstract

This community service activity aims to improve the skills of health cadres in optimizing the coverage of early detection of non-communicable diseases using the SAKTI application at the Ngadiluwih Health Center UPTD, Kediri Regency. Non-communicable diseases have increased every year and are one of the leading causes of death, which is of national and global concern at this time. Based on the results of a preliminary study at the Ngadiluwih Health Center in 2023, it was found that the non-communicable disease control program in 2023 had not reached the target; therefore, it was necessary to strengthen the Primary Service Integration (ILP) at the Ngadiluwih Health Center, Kediri Regency. The data collection method used a questionnaire that was administered before (Pre-test) and after (post-test) the implementation of the activity. The results of the statistical analysis showed a significant increase in knowledge and skills. The average pre-test value was 6.23, and the average post-test value increased to 8.88. The significance value of the Wilcoxon Test was 0.000 (p <0.05), which indicated that the increase in knowledge and skills was statistically significant.  This increase indicates that the counseling method carried out successfully increased the knowledge and skills of cadres on the use of the SAKTI Application, and they were able to conduct independent screening in the community.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease with a steadily increasing global prevalence and is among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality, including in Indonesia. This condition creates a major health and economic burden, particularly for individuals with low to middle socioeconomic status, as it is often detected late and inadequately treated. Limited public awareness of early symptoms, modifiable risk factors, and preventive measures is a key factor contributing to delayed diagnosis and the risk of serious complications in the future. This community service program was carried out at Ngasem Community Health Center, Kediri Regency, and involved 25 participants with a history of DM. The primary objective was to enhance community knowledge and awareness regarding DM through health education using a participatory approach. Knowledge levels were assessed before and after the intervention to evaluate the effectiveness of the educational activity. The results indicated a clear improvement in participants’ understanding of the early symptoms of DM, associated risk factors, and preventive strategies. This suggests that participatory health education is an effective approach to improving public knowledge and encouraging proactive health behavior. Sustained and systematic educational interventions are therefore essential to support the prevention and control of DM at the community level.

Abstract

The maternal mortality rate (MMR) in Indonesia remains relatively high, with postpartum infection being one of the leading causes. The postpartum period is a critical phase during which physiological changes occur, increasing the risk of infection. However, the lack of adequate maternal health monitoring remains a challenge in the early detection of complications. This study aims to implement health technology-based monitoring using wearable sensors (HRV sensor/smartwatch) and axillary thermometers to detect changes in maternal body temperature and heart rate variability during the postpartum period. A total of 20 postpartum mothers, aged 2-14 days, from Pagesangan Subdistrict, were monitored for seven days. The results showed that the majority of participants (90%) were in good health; however, two participants (10%) experienced an increase in body temperature above 38°C and unstable HRV, which are early indicators of postpartum infection. These participants were immediately provided with additional health education and referred to healthcare professionals for further examination. Meanwhile, the remaining participants continued to receive routine monitoring and education regarding postpartum infection prevention. The implementation of this community service program demonstrated that health technology-based monitoring is effective in detecting real-time health condition changes, allowing for faster medical interventions and increasing maternal awareness of postpartum health. The findings suggest that this method can serve as an innovative approach to reducing postpartum infection risks and improving maternal health quality. Further development and wider application of this approach in other regions are recommended to enhance postpartum care and maternal well-being.

Abstract

Elderly is the final stage of the human life cycle, which at this stage experiences many changes both physically and mentally, especially decline in various functions and abilities that were once possessed. Health factors that play a role in changes in nutritional status include the increasing incidence of degenerative and non-degenerative diseases that result in changes in food intake, changes in the absorption of nutrients at the tissue level, and some cases can be caused by certain drugs that must be minimized by the elderly due to the disease they are suffering from. Fulfillment of good nutritional needs needs to be supported by knowledge of nutrition itself so that it can provide complete benefits for the elderly. After health counseling is carried out, it is hoped that it can improve the health degree and quality of elderly services as a process of early detection and health improvement. This activity will be carried out in August 2024. The implementation method is carried out by lectures and discussions. The media used are nutritional leaflets on the elderly, LCDs, laptops and projectors. The implementation of health counseling is carried out by bringing the elderly to the counseling site and providing a pre-test before being given health education and a post-test after being given health education. The result of this activity is an increase in the level of knowledge of 100% of the elderly about nutrition in the elderly. This activity concluded that under this activity it was carried out and produced changes in accordance with the output target, namely knowledge about nutritional fulfillment in the elderly. It is hoped that the counseling provided can be implemented and applied to daily life.

Abstract

Adolescence is a crucial period of social and emotional development that affects mental well-being. However, many adolescents experience emotional disorders, such as anxiety and depression. Based on WHO data (2021), around 2.8% of adolescents aged 15-19 years experience depression, with a higher incidence in girls. Various factors, such as academic pressure, hormonal changes, and social and family problems, are often the main triggers of depression in adolescent girls. If not handled properly, this condition can have a negative impact on development and quality of life. This community service method begins with Socialization, Pretest, Lecture plus Method, Demonstration and role play self-hypnosis method, and posttest on the 7th day on 75 adolescent girls at SMPN 3 Abiansemal. This community service shows that self-hypnosis contributes to reducing depression in adolescent girls. Research using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test showed a decrease in depression levels after self-hypnosis therapy (p = 0.013). Although several studies support its effectiveness, more scientific evidence is needed to confirm its clinical benefits. However, self-hypnosis has the potential to be an alternative strategy that can help young women cope with depression and improve mental health.
