Abstrak Pos Pembinaan Terpadu Penyakit Tidak Menular (Posbindu PTM) merupakan salah satu bentuk pemberdayaan peran serta masyarakat untuk pengendalian penyakit tidak menular. Saat ini terjadi peningkatan prevalensi penyakit tidak menular di Indonesia. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengidentifikasi implementasi program Posbindu PTM di Provinsi Jawa Barat. Desain penelitian ini adalah potong lintang. Data yang dikumpulkan adalah data kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Data kualitatif diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam dan focus group discussion. Informan utama berasal dari Dinas Kesehatan, Puskesmas, kader, dan masyarakat. Data kuantitatif didapatkan dari 187 responden yang berkunjung ke Posbindu PTM. Sebagian besar adalah perempuan dan berumur 45 tahun ke atas. Faktor pendukung pelaksanaan program Posbindu PTM adalah adanya pedoman Posbindu PTM, Posbindu kit, kader yang mampu mengidentifikasi faktor risiko PTM, kesiapan tenaga medis dan paramedik dalam penanganan PTM, serta adanya dukungan dari kepala Dinas kesehatan dalam menangani PTM. Sedangkan faktor penghambatnya adalah dana yang terbatas, kurang lengkapnya penyuluhan yang diberikan kader, kurangnya dukungan dari perangkat desa, dan tidak adanya tenaga medis/paramedik. Perlu peningkatan sosialisasi program Posbindu PTM dalam meningkatkan kesadaran terhadap kesehatan, serta dilengkapinya Buku Pedoman Posbindu PTM dan Posbindu kit untuk masing-masing Posbindu PTM. Kata kunci: Posbindu PTM, kader, dana, PTM Abstract Integrated coaching post for non-communicable diseases (Posbindu PTM) is a form of empowering community participation to control non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Currently, there is an increase in the prevalence of NCDs in Indonesia. The aim of this study was to identify the implementation of the Posbindu PTM program in West Java Province. This was a cross sectional study. The data collected was quantitative and qualitative data. Qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. The informants of the study came from the district health agency, public health centers, cadres and the community. A total of 187 participants visiting Posbindu PTM were interviewed, mostly were women and aged ≥ 45 years. Supporting factors for the implementation of the Posbindu PTM program are the availability of guidelines and Posbindu kit, capability of cadres to identify the risk factors of NCDs, readiness of medical and paramedical personnel in non communicable management and the support from the head of the health department in non communicable management. The inhibiting factors are limited budget, lack of counseling by cadres, lack of support from village officials, and lack of medical/ paramedical personnel. It is necessary to increase the socialization of the Posbindu PTM program in increasing awareness of their health and to complete the guidelines and kits for each Posbindu PTM.

IntroductionMultimorbidity refers to the presence of two or more chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in a given individual. It is associated with premature mortality, lower quality of life (QoL) and greater use of healthcare resources. The burden of multimorbidity could be huge in the low and middle-income countries (LMICs), including Ethiopia. However, there is limited evidence on the magnitude of multimorbidity, associated risk factors and its effect on QoL and functionality. In addition, the evidence base on the way health systems are organised to manage patients with multimorbidity is sparse. The knowledge gleaned from this study could have a timely and significant impact on the prevention, management and survival of patients with NCD multimorbidity in Ethiopia and in LMICs at large.Methods and analysisThis study has three phases: (1) a cross-sectional quantitative study to determine the magnitude of NCD multimorbidity and its effect on QoL and functionality, (2) a qualitative study to explore organisation of care for patients with multimorbidity, and (3) a longitudinal quantitative study to investigate disease progression and patient outcomes over time. A total of 1440 patients (≥40 years) on chronic care follow-up will be enrolled from different facilities for the quantitative studies. The quantitative data will be collected from multiple sources using the KoBo Toolbox software and analysed by STATA V.16. Multiple case study designs will be employed to collect the qualitative data. The qualitative data will be coded and analysed by Open Code software thematically.Ethics and disseminationEthical clearance has been obtained from the College of Medicine and Health Sciences, Bahir Dar University (protocol number 003/2021). Subjects who provide written consent will be recruited in the study. Confidentiality of data will be strictly maintained. Findings will be disseminated through publications in peer-reviewed journals and conference presentations.

Abstract. One of the endeavors that the government has done to prevent and control non-communicable diseases (NCD) by increasing community participation in the early detection of NCDs is the NCD Integrated Guidance Post (Posbindu). However, in 2017, only 12.96% of the residents in Bogor City accessed it. This meant that the 30% target was not reached. The in this study, we researched the implementation of the NCD Posbindu at Bogor City. Data was gathered through in-depth interviews, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), documentary research, and observations. Eleven informants was interviewed and 24 informants was involved in the FGD. Two NCD Posbindus was observed at Mekarwangi and Cipaku Public Health Centers (PHC). We discovered that the standards and policies have supported the program, but not all the informants were aware of the targets of the program; there were also problems in the number and abilities of the human resources involved, ineffective communication between the cadres, in the coordination between the cadres, and lack of support from local public figures. The program had adequate funding from the regional budget, the Operational Health Aid Funds, and donations from the community. Although more funds are necessary for the promotion and prevention part of the program. We recommend that new cadres are recruited and trained, and that a reward system is used to provide motivation for the cadres.Abstrak. Salah satu upaya pemerintah untuk mencegah dan mengendalikan penyakit tidak menular melalui peningkatan peran serta masyarakat dalam deteksi dini faktor risiko penyakit tidak menular adalah melalui Pos Pembinaan Terpadu (Posbindu) Penyakit Tidak Menular (PTM). Namun, pada tahun 2017 cakupan kunjungan masyarakat ke Posbindu PTM di Kota Bogor hanya sebesar 12,96%. Ini berarti target yang ditetapkan (30%) belum tercapai. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana implementasi kegiatan Posbindu PTM di Kota Bogor. Metode yang digunakan adalah wawancara mendalam, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), telaah dokumen dan observasi. Informan penelitian terdiri dari 11 informan wawancara mendalam dan 24 informan FGD. Observasi dilakukan di 2 Posbindu PTM di Puskesmas Mekarwangi dan Puskesmas Cipaku. Peneliti menemukan bahwa standar dan kebijakan yang ada telah mendukung program, tetapi belum semua informan mengetahui siapa target program, selain itu juga terdapat permasalahan dalam jumlah dan kemampuan kader, komunikasi yang tidak efektif antar kader, koordinasi antar kader, dan kurangnya dukungan dari tokoh masyarakat local. Pendanaan program tidak mengalami masalah, karena dana program berasal dari APBD, dana Bantuan Operasional Kesehatan, dan sumbangan masyarakat. Walaupun masih membutuhkan pendanaan lebih lanjut untuk promosi dan pencegahan. Peneliti merekomendasikan dilaksanakannya pembaharuan informasi dan pelatihan yang berkala untuk para kader, perekrutan kader baru, pemberian reward atau pemilihan kader teladan dan Posbindu PTM terbaik, peningkatan kerja sama lintas sektor lembaga pendidikan, pemerintah dan swasta.

Background: Non-communicable diseases seriously affect public health and socio-economic development of the country due to the high number of people suffering from diseases, being disabled and mortal. However, the proportion of people who recognized themselves a suffering from non-communicable diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia is not high. For cases that their disease situations have been identified, there are not appropriate treatment and preventive behaviors. Objectives: 1) To determine the proportion of 25 - 84 years old peoplewho identified themselves as suffering from hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia. 2) To learn treatment and preventive behaviors in the group of people who identified themselves as suffering from diseases. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a randomly selected sample of 1600 residents in Thua Thien Hue province. Results: The proportion of people knowing that they are suffering from hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia was 29.4%; 3.2% and 7.8% respectively. Among them, the proportion of people who did not treat and treated irregularly accounted for 42.7%; 13.7% and 75.2% respectively; the proportion of people who did not change their lifestyles and dietary habits accounted for 50.1%; 5.9% and 56.8% respectively. Conclusions: The proportion of people who identified themselves as suffering from some non-communicable diseases without appropriate treatment and preventive behaviors is alarming. Interventions are needed to help people realize the importance of treatment and prevention effectively. Key words: Non-communicable diseases, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia

Abstract Background From disease prevention to health promotion, communication is key for Public Health (PH) practice and, according to the 9th Essential Public Health Operation its goal is to improve populations health literacy and capacity to access, understand and use information. Though social media is frequently presented as a potentially useful tool for PH communication, there is a lack of evidence about its effectiveness and impact on PH outcomes. This study researches Instagram® as a PH tool and aims to know who is using it, what content is shared on the platform and how much engagement there is. Methods This cross-sectional study regards information on 1000 Instagram® posts with the hashtags publichealth, publichealthpromotion, healthpromotion, publichealthmatters and publichealtheducation. Authors categorized post content and creators, and reviewed the number of likes and comments per post to determine engagement. Data analysis was performed on IBM SPSS® Statistics. Results The most common content categories were communicable diseases (n = 383), non-communicable diseases (n = 258) and healthy lifestyles (n = 143). Health professionals post more about communicable diseases (43,6%) and non-professionals about healthy lifestyles (36,1%). Non-professionals (n = 191) post about PH issues almost as much as health professionals (n = 220) and PH associations (n = 201). Most don't reference their sources (n = 821). Posts on communicable diseases have the most likes and comments per post (mean of 172 likes and 3,1 comments). Conclusions Half the Instagram® posts analysed in this study were made by health professionals or organizations. Communicable diseases, non-communicable diseases and healthy lifestyles were the most frequent content categories and had the most engagement. The majority of posts didn't reference their sources. Though Instagram® seems to be a potential PH communication tool, further research is needed to confirm its benefits for PH. Key messages Social media platforms like Instagram® are potentially powerful tools for PH communication. There is a need to understand the efficacy of social media as health promotion tools.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) disproportionately affect low and middle-income countries where nearly three quarters of NCD deaths occur. Bangladesh is also in NCD burden. This cross-sectional study was done on 50 health facilities centres at Gazipur district in Bangladesh from July 2015 to December 2015 to introduce SARA for better monitoring and evaluation of non-communicable diseases health service delivery. The General Service readiness index score was 61.52% refers to the fact that about 62% of all the facilities were ready to provide general services like basic amenities, basic equipment, standard precautions for infection prevention, and diagnostic capacity and essential medicines to the patients. But in case of non-communicable diseases, among all the health facilities 40% had chronic respiratory disease and cardiovascular diseases diagnosis/ management and only 32% had availability of diabetes diagnosis/management. Overall readiness score was 52% in chronic respiratory disease, 73% in cardiovascular disease and 70% in diabetes. Therefore, service availability and readiness of the health facilities to provide NCD related health services were not up to the mark for facing future targets.  A full-scale census survey of all the facilities of the study area would give a better understanding of the availability and service readiness.

ObjectivesTo assess the prevalence of disabilities (vision, hearing, mobility, cognitive, self-care and communication) and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) among the elderly population in two districts in Telangana, India.DesignPopulation-based cross-sectional study using a cluster random sampling method to select the study clusters.SettingElderly population in Khammam and Warangal districts were recruited. Detailed interviews were conducted by trained community health workers. Personal and demographic information such as age, gender, level of education and a self-report of NCDs was collected. The Washington Disability Questionnaire was administered to assess the presence of disabilities.Participants1821 participants aged ≥60 years, 54.5% were women, and 73.3% had no education.Primary outcome measurePrevalence of disabilities and NCDs.ResultsOverall, the prevalence of at least disability was 20.3% (95% CI 16.3 to 24.9). The prevalence of self- reported disabilities were: seeing (5.9%; 95% CI 4.4 to 7.8), mobility (12.8%; 95% CI 9.7 to 16.8), hearing (3.6%; 95% CI 2.7 to 4.8), cognition (4.8%; 95% CI 3.5 to 6.7), self-care (3.3%; 95% CI 2.3 to 4.7) and communication (1.8%; 95% CI 1.2 to 2.6). Overall, the prevalence of at least one NCD was 34.2% (95% CI 30.9 to 37.7). Hypertension was the most common systemic condition (25.4%; 95% CI 22.4 to 28.7), followed by diabetes (9.0%; 95% CI 7.3 to 11.0), and body pains (muscle-skeletal) (9.9%; 95% CI 8.1 to 12.2).ConclusionEvery fifth elderly person in the districts of Khammam and Warangal in Telangana had at least one self-reported disability. Besides, a third of the elderly had at least one NCD. There is a definite need to develop comprehensive public health strategies to address disabilities and NCDs in Telangana.

Abstract Background Refugees are highly vulnerable to many health-related risks. Monitoring non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is of overriding importance in these populations. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of risk factors for NCDs amongst Afghan refugees in a refugee camp located in southern Iran. Methods This cross-sectional sturdy was conducted in 2018. Risk factors such as inadequate nutrition, physical inactivity, tobacco smoking, obesity and overweight, hypertension (HTN), elevated fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and dyslipidaemia were assessed. Data were gathered with a modified WHO STEPS procedure. Prevalence and age-standardized prevalence and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated. Results The estimated prevalence were 94% for inadequate fruit/vegetable consumption, 18% for physical inactivity, 9% for tobacco smoking, 3% for FPG, 20% for HTN, 51% for central obesity, 24% for overweight, 19% for obesity, and 69% for dyslipidaemia. Conclusions Except for inadequate fruit and vegetable intake and dyslipidaemia, the prevalence of other NCD risk factors was low among Afghan refugees in Iran. Raising awareness about healthy diet and its importance and the provision of more affordable fruit and vegetables are two effective measures toward improving the health of refugees in Iran.

Abstract Objectives The study assessed the prevalence and associated factors of behavioural risk factors of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) among adolescents in four Caribbean countries. Content In all 9,143 adolescents (15 years = median age) participated in the cross-sectional “2016 Dominican Republic, 2016 Suriname, 2017 Jamaica, and 2017 Trinidad and Tobago Global School-Based Student Health Survey (GSHS)”. Eight behavioural risk factors of NCDs were assessed by a self-administered questionnaire. Summary Prevalence of each behavioural NCD risk factor was physical inactivity (84.2%), inadequate fruit and vegetable intake (82.2%), leisure-time sedentary behaviour (49.6%), daily ≥2 soft drinks intake (46.8%), ever drunk (28.6%), twice or more days a week fast food consumption (27.6%), having overweight/obesity (27.4%), and current tobacco use (13.8%). Students had on average 3.6 (SD=1.4), and 79.0% had 3–8 behavioural NCD risk factors. In multivariable linear regression, psychological distress and older age increased the odds, and attending school and parental support decreased the odds of multiple behavioural NCD risk factors. Outlook A high prevalence and co-occurrence of behavioural risk factors of NCDs was discovered and several factors independently contributing to multiple behavioural NCD risk factors were identified.

Abstract Background Health literacy plays a prominent role in empowering individuals for prevention as well as management of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). However, there is paucity of information on the health literacy of patients with non-communicable diseases in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed to assess communicative health literacy and associated factors in patients with NCDs on follow-up at Jimma Medical Center (JMC), Ethiopia. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted from 4 May 2020 to 4 July 2020 with 408 randomly selected adult patients, attending outpatient department of JMC in Ethiopia. The final sample size was obtained by using single population proportion formula. All patients with NCDs who were on follow-up at chronic illness clinic, JMC, were used as a source population. All eligible patients with NCDs who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were included in this study. A simple random sampling technique was used to recruit study participants. Data were collected through structured interviewer administered questionnaires on the six of nine health literacy domains using Health Literacy Questionnaire (HLQ) containing 30 items, socio-demographic and socio-economic characteristics, disease-related factors, and health information sources. Multivariable logistic regression was executed to determine the associations. Result Descriptive analysis shows more than half of the respondents in four of the six health literacy domains had high communicative health literacy level (CHLL). The proportion of people with high CHLL across each of the domains was as follows: health care provider support (56.1%), social support for health (53.7%), active engagement with a healthcare provider (56.1%), and navigating healthcare system (53.4%). We found educational status was significantly associated with five of six health literacy domains whereas number of sources was associated with four of six health literacy domains. Conclusion The overall findings of the current study indicate that health literacy levels vary according to socio-demographic and disease characteristics of patients. Thus, healthcare professionals should assess patients’ health literacy level and tailor information and support to the health literacy skills and personal context of their patients.
