Penyakit hipertensi masih menjadi masalah kesehatan masyarakat termasuk di daerah pesisir. Faktor sosio demografi dan konsumsi makan masyarakat pesisir yang tidak seimbang menjadi determinan kejadian hipertensi. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui determinan kejadian hipertensi masyarakat pesisir berdasarkan kondisi sosio demografi dan konsumsi makan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif analitik dengan study cross sectional pada bulan Desember 2019 dengan sampel penelitian berjumlah 90 orang dengan menggunakan uji chi square. Hasil penelitian terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara pola konsumsi makanan (p=0,009; POR=3,780), status pendidikan (p=0,001;POR=5,350), usia (p=0,000;POR=9,000) Kesimpulan penelitian yaitu terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara pola konsumsi makanan, status pendidikan dan umur terhadap kejadian hipertensi di wilayah pesisir Desa Percut Kecamatan Percut Sei Tuan Kabupaten Deli Serdang Sumatera Utara. Saran kepada petugas kesehatan untuk dapat meningkat upaya promosi kesehatan secara berkesinambungan khususnya kepada penderita hipertensi.

Background: Leaflet and poster calendars are one medium to provide health education to patients with pulmonary tuberculosis on the treatment of pulmonary Tuberculosis. The purpose of this research for media want to effectivity leaflet and poster calendars on health promotion to improve the knowledge and attitudes of pulmonary tuberculosis treatment at the Martubung Public Health Center. Methods: Research is a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test group. The population in this study were all patients with pulmonary tuberculosis treatment in Martubung Public Health Center and analyzed with the wilcoxon test. Results: The results of the study using the wilcoxon test showed that the leaflet could increase the pretest value of 10 knowledge to 11.03 (p <0.001) and the attitude of having a pretest value of 41.77 to 45.7 (p <0.001). The wilcoxon test results show that the poster calendar can increase the pretest knowledge value from 8.7 to 11.97 (p <0.001) and the pretest attitude value from 43.7 to 50.27 (p <0.001). Conclusions: The media are most effective in improving knowledge and attitudes about the treatment of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis disease in Martubung Public Health Center is media poster calendar from the average value based on the pre-test and post-test conducted.

<p><strong>Pendahuluan:</strong> prevalensi hipertensi berdasarkan hasil pengukuran pada penduduk usia 18 tahun sebesar 34,1%. Prevalensi hipertensi di Propinsi Sumatera Utara mencapai 6.7% dari seluruh penduduk di Sumatera Utara. Obesitas menjadi salah satu faktor risiko hipertensi yang perlu diwaspadai. Status obesitas dapat diketahui dengan melakukan pengukuran IMT (Indeks Massa Tubuh) sedangkan untuk obesitas sentral dapat diketahui melalui pengukuran LP (Lingkar Pinggang) dan RLPTB (Rasio Lingkar Pinggang Tinggi Badan). <strong>Metode: </strong>Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif dengan analisis deskriptif dan uji diagnostik menggunakan tabel 2x2. Serta desain penelitian ini menggunakan desain <em>cross sectional.</em> Pengambilan sampel dilakukan secara <em>simple random sampling </em>didapatkan sampel sebanyak 80 responden dari total populasi 387. Penelitian dilakukan pada 23 Juni s/d 15 Juli 2019. Lokasi yang dijadikan penelitian ini adalah Desa Kwala begumit kecamatan Stabat dan di lakukan dalam satu dusun yaitu dusun Sido waras. <strong>Hasil: </strong>hasil yang didapat pada kelompok umur 38-47 paling banyak penderita hipertensi sebanyak 15 responden dan jenis kelamin perempuan paling banyak menderita hipertensi. Didapatkan nilai sensitivitas dari titik potong 0,47 sebagai prediktor kejadian hipertensi pada laki-laki dewasa sebesar 87%<strong> </strong>dan nilai spesifisitas sebesar 60%. Serta didapatkan nilai sensitivitas dari titik potong 0,50 sebagai predictor kejadian hipertensi pada perempuan dewasa sebesar 96% dan nilai spesifisitas sebesar 54%. <strong>Kesimpulan: </strong>nilai sensitivitas dan spesifisitas tinggi hal ini bahwa titik potong RLPTB 0.40 dan 0.50 cukup mumpuni dijadikan sebagai alat deteksi dini.</p><p><strong>Kat</strong><strong>a kunci:</strong><strong> </strong>Sensitivitas, Spesifisitas, Prediktor, Hipertensi.</p>

This study measures adult women's knowledge, attitudes, and behavior in contraceptive use in coastal slums. Knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors are supported by supporting factors and driving factors at the mother's household level. This research used a multilevel analytical with a cross-sectional approach. Adult women (individual levels) and heads of the family (family level) are subject in this study, separated into two groups in the individual and household unit. The total sample in this study is 734 samples and originated from 374 samples in individual and household units. The results of this study indicate that maternal knowledge about contraception and mother's education has a positive effect on contraceptive use, as well as husband's support and economic status. Women with an elementary and junior high school education tend not to use contraception 3-5 times more than women with higher education.The family variation between environments binds 26% of the results to the existing multilevel analysis so that contributions made by intervening risk factors at the family level will increase participation in individual contraceptive use by 26%. Supporting factors for mothers in using contraception influence the support of their husbands and family support. Elementary and junior high school education still dominantly influence contraception in adult women in first and second models. Women with primary and junior secondary education tend not to use contraception three to five times more than the group of women who have higher education. Contributions that can be made by intervening risk factors at the family level will increase the participation of contraceptive use in individuals by twenty-six percent.</p><p><em> </em></p></td></tr></tbody></table></div><strong>Keywords: </strong><em> Contraception, Family Support, Slum Area.</em></div>

Method: this research is a type of evaluative research that evaluates and assesses an activity system using qualitative methods to obtain information from data sources or informants regarding activities that have been carried out, in order to be able to explain the actual situation in the field. Results: The problems encountered were workers' health, data reporting and data dissemination. Epidemiological surveillance of workers' health is still lacking so that additional workers' health is needed, then reporting weekly disease data so that current disease trends can be identified, as well as dissemination to stakeholders who are competent in their fields</em><br /><p><em> </em></p></td></tr></tbody></table></div><strong><em>Keyword: </em></strong> <strong><em><span lang="EN-GB">Airport</span><span lang="EN-US">, </span><span lang="EN-GB">Evaluation,</span><span lang="EN-GB">Surveillance.</span></em></strong>
