Abstract

Adolescent health services remain a concern in Central Sulawesi due to low adolescent participation in adolescent posyandu (community health posts for adolescents). This community service activity aims to empower youth health cadres to increase participation in the implementation of youth health posts in Tanambulawa Subdistrict, Sigi Regency, Central Sulawesi. The intervention comprised training and the implementation of adolescent posyandu. Evaluation employed a pretest–posttest design for the cadres and monitoring of posyandu activities. The program was conducted in February–March 2024. Twenty-five cadres participated in the training, and 17 adolescents attended the posyandu. The average knowledge score increased from 6.04 (pretest) to 8.32 (posttest). The adolescent posyandu was held on 8 March 2024 in Sibalaya Selatan Village. In conclusion, the training improved cadres’ knowledge about adolescent posyandu and adolescent anemia, and the posyandu activities were successfully implemented. It is recommended that adolescent program coordinators and cadres intensify outreach to adolescents and parents regarding the importance of adolescent posyandu.

Abstract

Food Additives (FDA) are certain ingredients added to food to make it look attractive and have a longer shelf life. FDA can be dangerous if used in food in doses greater than the specified standard or consumption limit. Hazardous FDA are usually found in school snacks, so education is needed to increase students' knowledge to protect them from dangerous FDA. The purpose of this community service is to increase students' understanding and knowledge regarding dangerous FDA in school snacks. This activity was carried out at SMA Negeri 7 Palu with a total of 59 participants. The implementation of the activity was in the form of providing education about dangerous FDA in school snacks to students using lecture methods and leaflet distribution. Knowledge measurements were carried out before and after the education. The results of the pre-post test showed that there was an effect of providing education on students' knowledge with a significance value of α = 0.00 with an increase in knowledge of 25.4%. The increase in students' knowledge is expected to have implications for students' attitudes in choosing safe foods for consumption.

Abstract

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes, hypertension, kidney failure and heart disease are increasingly becoming a serious threat throughout the world, including in Indonesia. Kidney failure is a non-communicable disease with increasing morbidity and mortality. NCDs (kidney failure) usually appear without symptoms and do not show any specific clinical signs, so that most people are not aware of the dangers of NCDs. Early detection and prevention efforts for kidney failure are very important because kidney failure in children and adolescents can have a negative impact on future life. This community service aims to conduct early detection screening for risk factors for kidney failure and health education to increase knowledge about NCDs. The method used in this activity is education and socialization of Kidney Failure Disease in adolescents at SLTA N 3 Luwuk. The targets involved in this activity were more than 100 people. The results of the pre-test and post-test activities on participants showed an increase in test scores before and after receiving education. The average pre-test score of participants was 7.55 with SD 0.202, in the post-test the average score was 9.72 with SD 0.521. From these results, it can be seen that there was an increase in score of 2.17 points. The results of the statistical test obtained a p value of 0.000, which means that there is a significant difference between the scores before (pre-test) and after education (post-test). This community service activity is an important promotive and preventive step in improving public health, especially for adolescents in efforts to prevent and overcome kidney failure.

Abstract

Cadres are the drivers of various aspects of society's social life. Health cadres are one of the partners of health workers who are expected to be able to bridge between health workers and the community, helping improve the health and welfare of people in the region. The principle of community empowerment is applied in health development programs; one example is the Integrated Service Post (Posyandu). Posyandu is an activity that is managed and organized from, by, for, and with the community. The aim of community service activities is to provide education about the KIA book to health cadres. The target of the activity was health cadres, totaling 20 participants. The methods used were lectures, questions, and answers using the KIA book as tools and presentation material about the use of the KIA book. Evaluation of community service activities by assessing pre-test and post-test regarding knowledge of KIA book use by cadres. The post-test was carried out after participants received information about using the KIA book. The results of the activity showed an average pre-test score of 60.71 and an average post-test score of 72.85. The conclusion of this community service activity was that there was an increase in the level of knowledge of health cadres in using KIA books to monitor the growth and development of toddlers as an effort to screen for early stunting.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a major worldwide health concern, with some regions in Indonesia facing challenges in achieving case detection objectives. This initiative sought to enhance tuberculosis case detection using mobile X-ray screening, the provision of preventative medication, and the identification of latent tuberculosis infections among household contacts and high-risk groups, especially stunting children. The results indicated that just 6.03% of participants had a history of tuberculosis contact, but 67.84% presented risk factors including malnutrition, exposure to smoking, previous tuberculosis diagnosis, and diabetes. Chest radiography revealed anomalies in 6.03% of individuals, requiring further diagnostic verification. Furthermore, stunting was widespread, with 48% categorized as moderately stunted and 27% as severely stunted. Post-intervention evaluations indicated an enhanced mother's understanding of tuberculosis. Initiatives to enhance tuberculosis case finding among women and children under five in rural regions must be expanded and strengthened to decrease transmission, enhance detection rates, bridge information gaps, mitigate stigma, and increase treatment coverage, ultimately leading to reduced tuberculosis transmission.

Abstract

Penyuluhan keselamatan radiasi merupakan langkah penting dalam meningkatkan pemahaman dan kesadaran mengenai bahaya paparan radiasi serta upaya pencegahannya. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk memberikan edukasi kepada radiografer, pasien, pengantar pasien, perawat pengantar, dan mahasiswa Praktik Kerja Lapangan (PKL) terkait prinsip keselamatan radiasi, yaitu justifikasi, limitasi, dan optimasi, serta penerapan proteksi berbasis jarak, waktu, dan perisai. Penyuluhan dilakukan di Instalasi Radiologi Rumah Sakit Pusat Pertamina (RSPP) dengan total 23 peserta. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi pre-test, penyampaian materi melalui presentasi dan media visual (poster, pamflet), diskusi interaktif, serta post-test untuk mengukur peningkatan pemahaman. Hasil menunjukkan rata-rata nilai peserta meningkat dari 61,30 pada pre-test menjadi 85,65 pada post-test, dengan seluruh peserta mencapai nilai di atas 70. Tingkat kehadiran dan partisipasi mencapai 100%. Namun, durasi pelatihan yang singkat dan minimnya praktik menjadi keterbatasan utama. Disarankan pelatihan lanjutan dengan simulasi berbasis praktik dan evaluasi jangka panjang untuk memastikan dampak berkelanjutan. Kegiatan ini membuktikan efektivitas penyuluhan interaktif dalam meningkatkan pemahaman keselamatan radiasi.

Abstract

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) in pregnant women remains a serious public health challenge due to its impact on both maternal and fetal health, ranging from delivery complications and anemia to the risk of low birth weight (LBW) and stunting. Data from the Tolitoli District Health Office in 2023 reported 406 cases of CED among pregnant women, with the highest prevalence (19.2%) found in Baolan Subdistrict. This condition highlights the need to strengthen the role of community health cadres in early detection and nutritional support for pregnant women. This Community Service Program aimed to improve cadres’ knowledge and skills in monitoring maternal nutritional status through simple anthropometric measurements (Mid-Upper Arm Circumference, body weight, and height). The activity was conducted in Buntuna Village, within the working area of Baolan Health Center, Tolitoli District, on July 30, 2025, involving 18 health cadres. The methods included education using presentations and booklets, a question-and-answer session, and hands-on practice of anthropometric measurements. Knowledge was assessed using pre- and post-tests with questionnaires, while skills were observed using a checklist-based assessment. The post-test results indicated a significant improvement in knowledge from 40% to 86%, while skills increased from 11% to 100%. Prior to the intervention, only two cadres were skilled, but after training, all participants were able to perform measurements accurately. These findings demonstrate that practice-based training is effective in strengthening cadre capacity and has the potential to enhance the effectiveness of CED prevention programs at the community level.

Abstract

The Generasi Berencana Peduli Organ Reproduksi Perempuan (GEnRE POP) program aims to empower adolescents and improve their knowledge of reproductive health. The program was implemented in Bukit Bambu Village, Poso District, involving 20 adolescents aged 15–19 years. Activities included an initial survey, interactive health education, peer facilitator training, establishment of a support group, and evaluation using pre- and post-tests. Results showed a substantial improvement in participants’ knowledge, with average scores increasing from 45 to 85 (88.9%). The program also succeeded in forming a youth reproductive health support group and enhancing participants’ communication skills through peer educator training. This participatory approach created an inclusive learning environment that encouraged adolescents to become change agents in promoting reproductive health within their community. Overall, the GEnRE POP program proved effective in increasing adolescent reproductive health literacy and is recommended for continued implementation with support from local government, health workers, and educational institutions.

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease is still the leading cause of global death and shows an increasing trend in Indonesia, including in semi-urban and rural areas such as Marawola District, Sigi Regency. Low health literacy and limited access to services are challenges in preventing and detecting this disease. This community service activity aims to improve early detection and promotive-preventive interventions of cardiovascular diseases through the Interprofessional Collaboration (IPC) approach. The implementation method involved seven villages with a target of 210 heads of families (321 individuals). Activities include coordination, socialization, health screening (blood pressure, blood sugar levels, cholesterol, BMI, and abdominal circumference), health education, and profession-based interventions (nursing, midwifery, nutrition, and sanitation). The screening results showed the prevalence of hypertension at 44.1%, pre-hypertension at 48.7%, diabetes mellitus at 11.5%, high cholesterol at 39%, and obesity and overweight at 43.6%. The collaborative intervention through education about the efforts of blood pressure and improved participants' understanding of nutrition, environmental cleanliness, and medication adherence. The discussion emphasized that the IPC accelerates problem identification, enriches interventions, and increases community involvement. However, limited time and laboratory equipment are obstacles that must be fixed in future activities. In conclusion, integrating IPC in community-based cardiovascular screening and intervention programs is feasible and sustainable.
