BACKGROUND: The prevalence of preeclampsia cases in the province of Aceh has increased every year. This case in West Aceh District has increased from year to year in pregnancy that can have adverse effects on both the mother and the fetus. AIM: Analyzing risk factors for the incidence of preeclampsia in pregnant women in the working area of the Meureubo and Johan Pahlawan Puskesmas, Aceh Barat district. METHODS: This was an analytic observational study with a case-control study design. The study population was pregnant women in Meureubo and Johan Pahlawan subdistricts of Aceh Barat district. The sample selection is purposive sampling, amounting to 42 people – bivariate data analysis using the Chi-square test. RESULTS: There is a significant relationship between the knowledge factor and preeclampsia incidence with a p = 0.029 < 0.05. The analysis results obtained an odds ratio (OR) = 0.171, which means that pregnant women with inadequate knowledge have a 0.171 fold risk of developing preeclampsia. There is a significant relationship between the incidence of hypertension and preeclampsia incidence in pregnant women with a p = 0.009 < 0.05. The analysis results obtained an OR = 2.50, which means that pregnant women who have a history of hypertension have a 2.50 times risk of experiencing preeclampsia compared to other pregnant women. The variables of age, parity, food consumption, and history of diabetes mellitus were not significantly associated with preeclampsia incidence in pregnant women with p > 0.05. CONCLUSION: There is a significant effect of providing a self-empowerment-based education package to the elderly on the level of knowledge and oral hygiene status of the elderly in Darul Imarah District, Aceh Besar (p < 0.05).

Prevalensi stunting di Indonesia masih cukup tinggi yaitu mencapai 32,8% pada baduta. Meski terjadi penurunan prevalensi stunting tahun 2018 baik pada balita maupun baduta namun masih belum mencapai target yang diharapkan. Salah satu upaya untuk percepatan penurunan prevalensi stunting yaitu melalui pendidikan dan deteksi dini stunting pada anak. Tujuan kegiatan pengabdian yaitu untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan masyarakan khususnya orang tua baduta agar melakukan pengukuran panjang badan secara berkala pada anak sebagai upaya deteksi dini stunting. Metode yang digunakan berupa ceramah untuk memberikan edukasi tentang stunting dan praktik deteksi dini stunting dengan cara pengukuran antropometri. Kelompok sasaran adalah ibu baduta yang berjumlah 25 orang. Monitoring dan evaluasi diukur pada aspek perubahan pengetahuan, menggunakan kuisioner dan wawancara. Keberhasilan kegiatan diukur dan dianalisis menggunakan Paired T-test. Hasil analisis menunjukkan adanya perubahan pengetahuan setelah mendapatkan edukasi tentang stunting (p= 0,000). Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa adanya perbedaan pengetahuan yang signifikan antara pre dan post pemberian edukasi kelompok sasaran. Hasil pengukuran panjang badan terjaring 12% baduta dengan panjang badan >-2 SD. Kegiatan pengabdian ini dapat dijadikan langkah awal untuk memberdayakan masyarakan dalam mendeteksi secara dini stunting pada baduta dan dapat dilakasanakan secara berkelanjutan kedepannya.

BACKGROUND: Anemia is a nutritional problem that affects the amount of hemoglobin in red blood cells experienced by many young women in the Polytechnic of Health-Ministry of Health. Aceh. One of the alternatives for preventing and controlling anemia is to consume papaya fruit and tablet extraction. AIM: Analyzing the benefits of taking Papaya (Carica papaya Linn.) Vitamin C and Fe tablet to increase hemoglobin levels in anemia adolescent girls. METHODS: About 45 participants were involved. They were divided into three groups for 15 correspondents in each group. The participants with anemia were all girls who were students of Aceh Health Polytechnic. A quasi-experimental design was used with a non-randomized pretest-posttest control group design. The first group was given papaya and Fe treatment; then the second group was given Vitamin C and Fe treatment, and the third group was given Fe treatment. To analyze the data, univariate analysis and bivariable analysis were used to test paired t-test and one-way ANOVA. RESULTS: The results show that there was an increase in hemoglobin levels in all groups (Papaya and Fe groups, Vitamin C and Fe, Fe). The statistical results of the one-way ANOVA test showed that there were significant differences in changes in hemoglobin levels (p > 0.05). The administration of papaya + Fe increases hemoglobin levels more than Vitamin C + Fe. The difference in average hemoglobin levels in each group due to the consumption of papaya containing Vitamin C together with Fe tablets was effective for increasing hemoglobin levels. This is in line with the prevention of anemia. Naturally, one of these can be done by eating fruits that contain lots of Vitamin C. CONCLUSION: Giving papaya + Fe has been proven to be more effective in increasing hemoglobin levels in adolescent girls suffering from anemia.

Labor pain has an impact on the barriers to the delivery process due to the lack of self-control of the mother on labor pain so that the mother's physical condition can be weak. So the risk of cesarean delivery. One method of reducing pain is by non-pharmacological methods.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of breath relaxation techniques and murottal quran audio on delivery pain first stage in ingin jaya health center, aceh besar regency. This study is a quasi-experimental study with a two-group pre-posttest design using a randomized controlled trial. The population of maternity mothers in the Working Area of the Ingin jaya Health Center, Ingin jaya District, Aceh Besar regency. The sample selection is purposive sampling with inclusion and exclusion criteria, the sample is 70 people. The results showed that there were significant differences between before and after treatment with P value 0.00<0.05.Treatment with audio murotal and aromatherapy significantly reduced labor pain with P value 0.00 <0.05. Aromatherapy and Audio Murotal Al-Quran are effective in reducing pain in the first stage of labor in the work area of the Ingin jaya Public Health Center, Aceh Besar regency.

BACKGROUND: Post-partum physiological bleeding can cause post-partum mothers to experience anemia; often, post-partum mothers are limited by nutrient and fluid intake to keep the body strong and have ideal body weight. AIM: The aim of the study is to knowing the difference between beet juice and Guava juice on erythrocyte and hematocrit (HTC) levels in post-partum mothers at Darul Imarah Health Center, Darul Imarah District, Aceh Besar District. METHODS: This was a quasi-experimental study with a pre-post test design using a randomized controlled trial. The population of post-partum mothers in the Darul Imarah Health Center, Darul Imarah District, Aceh Besar District. The sample selection is purposive sampling with inclusion and exclusion criteria; the sample is 45 people. RESULTS: The results showed differences in erythrocyte and HTC levels between before and after giving guava and iron (Fe) juices with a p-value of 0.00 <0.05. Beet juice increases the average erythrocytes and HTC levels higher than guava juice. There were significant differences in erythrocyte levels in the guava + Fe, beet + Fe, and control (Fe) treatment groups with a p-value of 0.001 <0.05. the difference in the average difference in erythrocyte levels between the guava and beet treatment groups was 0.03. The treatment group Bit + Fe had a higher mean erythrocyte level different than the guava + the treatment group and the control group (Fe). There was a significant difference in HTC levels in the guava + Fe, beet + Fe, and control (Fe) treatment groups with a p-value of 0.001 <0.05. the difference in the average difference in erythrocyte levels between the guava and beet treatment groups was 0.03. The treatment group Bit + Fe had a higher mean difference in HTC levels than the guava + the treatment group and the control group (Fe). CONCLUSION: There is a significant difference in erythrocytes and HTC levels between before and after giving guava juice and beet juice to post-partum mothers with a p-value of 0.00 <0.05. Beet juice increases the average level of erythrocytes and HTC, which is higher than guava juice in post-partum mothers at the Darul Imarah Health Center.
