Menstrual personal hygiene is an important component of maintaining reproductive health among adolescent girls. Inadequate knowledge and inappropriate personal hygiene practices during menstruation may increase the risk of health problems and poor sanitation. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of menstrual personal hygiene education through the GIRLS SAN-SANITATION Program on menstrual personal hygiene knowledge and practices among adolescent girls at Fajar Harapan Orphanage, Pekanbaru. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The study sample consisted of 100 adolescent girls who participated in all stages of the study. The intervention was delivered through interactive education covering menstruation, genital hygiene, sanitary pad use and replacement, hand hygiene, underwear hygiene, and the proper disposal of used sanitary pads. Data were collected using questionnaires administered before and after the intervention and were analyzed using univariate and bivariate analyses with an appropriate paired statistical test based on data distribution. The results showed an increase in the achievement of menstrual personal hygiene knowledge and practices from 57% at the pretest to 91% at the posttest, representing an increase of 34 percentage points. The statistical analysis showed a p-value of 0.018 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference between the scores before and after the educational intervention. Menstrual personal hygiene education through the GIRLS SAN-SANITATION Program has the potential to serve as a promotive and preventive approach to improving menstrual personal hygiene knowledge and practices among adolescent girls in an orphanage setting.

One crucial component of the School Health Unit (UKS) program is the recording of medical records and the reporting of students' health conditions. Implementing digital health records in the UKS offers various benefits, such as facilitating the documentation of health screening results, immunization status, nutritional status, medical history, periodic health check-up results, and follow-up health services for students. Despite the ongoing advancement of health digitalization, the implementation of digital health records in UKS remains relatively limited due to constraints such as inadequate information technology infrastructure, low user competence in utilizing digital technology, and a lack of integration between school health data and the information systems of healthcare facilities. Given this context, it is important to conduct research on user acceptance regarding the utility of a digital health recording system for UKS using the System Usability Scale (SUS) method. The objective of this study is to analyze the level of student acceptance regarding the design of a digital health recording system for UKS. This study employs a descriptive quantitative method. The research was conducted at SMA Negeri Batam, involving 30 respondents who serve as UKS administrators at the school. Data collection methods included field observations and the distribution of questionnaires. The questionnaire was designed based on the SUS (System Usability Scale) method. Results: The "UKS Care" application is a mobile-based prototype designed to assist UKS activities in the digital recording and management of student health data. The application features several key components: Student Data, Health Check-ups, Medication, Schedules, Health Education, Reports, Notifications, and User Profiles. Analysis results indicate that the UKS Care application achieved an average SUS score of 80, placing it in the "Acceptable," "Grade A," and "Excellent" categories. Conclusion: The UKS Care application is accepted by users as a digital health recording system for UKS.

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that remains a major concern in public health, especially in toddlers. One factor that plays a role in preventing stunting is the mother's ability to provide good care, including an understanding of child nutrition. Nutrition education is one effort that can be done to improve mothers' knowledge and abilities in child care. This study aims to determine the effect of nutrition education through video media on maternal care resilience in mothers with children at risk of stunting in the work area of the Tambelan Community Health Center UPTD, Bintan Regency. This study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The population in this study were mothers with children at risk of stunting with a sample of 32 respondents selected using the total sampling technique. Data collection was carried out using a maternal care resilience questionnaire administered before (pretest) and after (posttest) the nutrition education intervention through video media. Data analysis was performed using the Paired Sample t-test after a normality test using Shapiro-Wilk. The results of the study showed that the average value of maternal care resilience before the intervention (pretest) was 96.91, while after the intervention (posttest) it increased to 111.75. The results of the statistical test showed a p-value = 0.000 (p <0.05) which means there is a significant effect of nutrition education through video media on increasing maternal care resilience in mothers with children at risk of stunting. The conclusion of this study shows that nutrition education through video media is effective in increasing maternal care resilience. Therefore, video media can be used as a method of health education in efforts to prevent stunting in the community, especially for mothers who have children at risk of stunting.
