Glukosa darah meningkat seiring dengan proses penuaan semakin banyak lansia yang berisiko terhadap terjadinya diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus pada lansia umumnya bersifat asimptomatik, walaupun ada gejala seringkali berupa gejala yang tidak khas seperti kelemahan, latergi, perubahan tingkah laku, menurunnya status kognitif atau kemampuan fungsional. Hal tersebut menyebabkan diagnosis diabetes mellitus pada lansia terlambat. Teknik pengambilan sampel dalam penelitian ini mengunakan teknik Total Sampling dengan jumlah sample 30 responden dari lansia yang menderita Diabetes Mellitus sebanyak 18 responden dan lansia yang menderita komplikasi sebanyak 12 responden dengan menggunakan alat glukotest baru. Hasil penelitian yang telah dilakukan pada 30 responden menunjukkan bahwa lansia yang berusia 74-90 tahun memiliki kadar gula darah tinggi dengan jumlah 15 orang (50%). Berasarkan jenis kelamin, lansia yang berjenis kelamin perempuan memiliki nilai kadar gula darah sewaktunya yang paling banyak dibandingkan lansia laki-laki dengan jumlah 20 lansia perempuan (66.7%). Sedangkan berdasarkan rata-rata, gula darah sewaktu lansia di Desa Sambung yaitu 234.80 mg/dl. Kadar gula darah sewaktu kategori diabetes mellitus banyak ditemukan pada faktor positif, sehingga upaya pemberian edukasi terkait faktor risiko diabetes mellitus perlu ditingkatkan.
Hypertension is classified as a disease that is often called the Silent Killer. Hypertension can attack various ages, including the elderly. Hypertension in the long term will cause various complications. In the Treatment of hypertension, many natural plants can be consumed, one of which is star fruit. Sweet starfruit juice is very useful for lowering blood pressure because of its fibre, potassium, phosphorus and vitamin C content. This study was to determine the effect of starfruit juice on lowering blood pressure in elderly people with hypertension at the integrated service centre in the working area of Rejosari Dawe Kudus Public Health Center. This study used a Quasy experiment method with a pre-test-post-test research design with a control group. A sample of 20 people, divided into two groups, namely 10 people in the experimental group and 10 people in the control group. The results of the independent t-test, the results of the posttest systolic blood pressure p-value = 0.004, while the diastolic blood pressure posttest p-value = 0.014, so it can be seen that the p-value <0.05, then H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. In this study, it can be concluded that there is an effect of giving star fruit juice on reducing blood pressure in elderly people with hypertension at the integrated service centre in the working area of the Rejosari Dawe Kudus Community Health Center.
Purpose To examine the associations between physical activity and depressive symptoms in adults with stroke. Design We conducted a cross‐sectional study involving the data of 3234 adults with stroke obtained from the 2018 Basic Health Research (Riset Kesehatan Dasar, RISKESDAS). Methods Physical activity level in metabolic equivalents‐minutes per week were determined using the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire according to the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behavior recommendations. Depression was assessed using the Mini‐International Neuropsychiatric Interview. Multivariate binomial logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the predictive role of physical activity for depression after adjusting for confounders. Results Adults with stroke who met the WHO recommendation of physical activity were independently and significantly associated with lower odds of depression after adjustment for confounders (adjusted OR = 0.757, p = 0.017). Conclusions Performing physical activity according to the WHO recommendation is associated with a lower likelihood of depression among Indonesian adults with stroke. Clinical relevance Clinicians should be informed by the findings of this study and prescribe exercise interventions or plan physical activities to optimize recovery and prevent poststroke depression.
Jumlah kasus DBD di Indonesia masih cukup tinggi. Di kabupaten Jepara, sebanyak 52 desa endemis demam berdarah dengue salah satunya di Kecamatan Kalinyamatan. Pada awal Januari 2013, penderita DBD mencapai 176 orang dan tiga orang di antaranya meninggal dunia. Penderita DBD di daerah tersebut cukup tinggi terutama pada anak usia balita dan usia sekolah. Berdasarkan survey di Sekolah Dasar Robayan terdapat 5 siswa yang terserang demam berdarah dengue dalam kurun waktu 3 bulan terakhir. Sehingga diperlukan Program PSN 3 M-plus (Pemberantasan Sarang Nyamuk Plus) yang mampu mengatasi permasalahan DBD di lingkungan sekolah tersebut. Tujuan program ini adalah terjadinya peningkatan kesadaran masyarakat sekolah meliputi siswa, guru dan orang tua dalam mensukseskan program PSN 3 M plus sehingga kejadian Demam Berdarah dapat ditekan khususnya dimusim penghujan. Metode yang digunakan dalam program ini adalah melalui peningkatan pengetahuan masyarakat sekolah tentang PSN 3 M Plus, demonstrasi dengan memanfaatkan media ikan untuk membunuh jentik-jentik nyamuk, simulasi dan kampanye melalui kerja bakti bersih-bersih lingkungan sekolah. Hasil kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah terjadinya peningkatan pengetahuan tentang penyakit Demam Berdarah Dengue dan perubahan perilaku dalam mensukseskan program PSN 3 M plus bagi masyarakat sekolah secara mandiri. Kata Kunci : Siswa sekolah, PSN 3M plus
