“…In addition, the Indonesian government through the Ministry of Health also offers a primary care-based program for early detection and monitoring of risk factors for non-communicable diseases called Posbindu [22]. The number of community groups involved in the Posbindu program has reached 33,679 [23], but it still suffers from low involvement (at 25%) of elderly populations due to inadequate facilities, physical disabilities, and communication problems [22]. Moreover, the IHIA as a public institution that corresponds to implementation of UHC in Indonesia also launched a program called Prolanis.…”

Given the increasing burden of chronic diseases in Indonesia, characteristics of chronic multimorbidities have not been comprehensively explored. Therefore, this research evaluated chronic multimorbidity patterns among Indonesians using Indonesian National Health Insurance (INHI) sample data. We included 46 chronic diseases and analyzed their distributions using population-weighted variables provided in the datasets. Results showed that chronic disease patients accounted for 39.7% of total patients who attended secondary health care in 2015–2016. In addition, 43.1% of those were identified as having chronic multimorbidities. Findings also showed that multimorbidities were strongly correlated with an advanced age, with large numbers of patients and visits in all provinces, beyond those on Java island. Furthermore, hypertension was the leading disease, and the most common comorbidities were diabetes mellitus, cerebral ischemia/chronic stroke, and chronic ischemic heart disease. In addition, disease proportions for certain disease dyads differed according to age group and gender. Compared to survey methods, claims data are more economically efficient and are not influenced by recall bias. Claims data can be a promising data source in the next few years as increasing percentages of Indonesians utilize health insurance coverage. Nevertheless, some adjustments in the data structure are accordingly needed to utilize claims data for disease control and surveillance purposes.

“…Unfortunately, the knowledge and skills of community health volunteers (cadres), as the main role of this program, are lacking. Hence, this can impact the process of disease early detection and their role in educating people (Putri & Andriyani, 2018). Therefore, education about life-threatening heart disease in hypertensive women, including signs and symptoms as well as risk factors, needs some improvements and a new strategy.…”

Background: Research has shown an increasing number of young women between the ages 35 and 54 having heart attacks. However, data demonstrated a persisting failure to raise women’s awareness of cardiovascular disease risk. Moreover, very little has been done to date in low- and middle-income countries to educate women on cardiovascular disease risks and the high mortality rates for women. Aims: The aim of this study was to explore hypertensive women’s awareness and perceptions of heart disease. Methods: A qualitative research design using semi-structured interviews was performed. Data were analyzed using an inductive thematic analysis approach. Results: In total, 25 women participated in this study. Three main themes emerged: (1) perception of heart disease and its risk factors, (2) ‘I don’t want to think about it’: perspectives on future risk, and (3) strategies to prevent heart disease. From the participants’ narratives, it was evident that the women in this study had limited knowledge related to heart disease. Although all participants suffered from hypertension, the women still underestimated their risk of developing heart disease in the future. Many women believed that praying to God and maintaining an optimistic mindset could protect them from heart disease. Conclusion: The study’s findings highlight a clear indication of the need to implement renewed strategies for educating women about cardiovascular health tailored to target the rural populations in Indonesia. Raising women's awareness might reduce their risk of suffering from cardiovascular disease in the future.

“…27,28 The reasons include lack of motivation, inadequate facilities, physical limitations, insufficient information, fear of injury, health issues, time constraints, in addition to costs. 29,30 A further reason is the challenge related to maintaining adherence to exercise, essentially for the elderly. 31 Furthermore, the elderly are frequently confronted by physical and psychological challenges when exercising.…”

As bodily functions decline, older people encounter various challenges in physical, mental and social well-being, for example risk of falls, hypertension and depression. Physical exercise is among the most recommended solutions to address the issues faced by the elderly. This study aimed to evaluate a holistic programme incorporating diverse physical exercises (aerobic exercise, muscle strength, flexibility), combined with mental and spiritual practices (breathing relaxation and gratitude) in reducing fall risk, enhancing physical fitness, and regulating blood pressure, in elderly residents of nursing homes. The study employed a Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial design in Surakarta, Indonesia. Seventy-one participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (n=42) or control groups (n=29). The intervention group engaged in the programme three times per week, for 60 minutes per session, over 16 weeks. The control group continued their routine activities, including sunbathing or other relaxing pursuits. In the fall risk variable, the intervention group exhibited a higher mean score than the control group, specifically 49.79 ±2.70 compared to 46.21 ±3.16, p=0.05, while for physical fitness, 60.24 ±7.65 compared to 49.57 ±11.66, p=0.05. Concerning systolic blood pressure, the mean value for the intervention group was 146.11 ± 20.07, while the control group was 148.59 ± 23.20, p = 0.63. The intervention group recorded a mean value of 84.10 ± 13.75 for diastolic blood pressure, whilst the control group recorded 86.25 ± 9.83, p = 0.98. This research underscored the influence of SPIRIT programme on reducing fall risk and enhancing physical fitness in elderly nursing home residents, although it is not effective in lowering blood pressure. Elderly people in nursing homes and communities can consider the SPIRIT programme as an attempt to prevent non-communicable diseases. Additional research is recommended to explore the impact of this programme on the blood pressure of older people.
