Abstract

Sungai Pisang Village is a village that has only been accessible by smooth road roads in the past year in Padang City. Previously this village was only accessible by sea and by lousy road. This condition causes the Pisang River community to lag in socio-economic and health aspects. This activity aims to screen for worms in elementary school students in Sungai Pisang village because worms are closely related to environmental health and affect the quality of human resources experiencing growth and development. Screening for worms is carried out by examining fecal preparations. This activity also aims to check visual acuity in elementary students and make references for sharp vision correction to learn well. Visual acuity checks were carried out using a Snellen card. The results of the examination showed that 3/143 students had worms and 3/273 students had visual disturbances. Students with worms are recommended to go to the Puskesmas to be given deworming medicine, and students with visual impairments are facilitated for examination by an ophthalmologist and given glasses if needed.

Abstract

Zinc is an essential micronutrient in the human body as a cofactor of about 300 enzymes. Zinc is very instrumental in the growth process, including maintaining the thymus so that atrophy is not fast. Zinc deficiency can affect the immune system. Zinc deficiency can be caused due to a lack of zinc intake. In theory, many factors affect zinc intake, among others, community knowledge, education, economy, diet, habits, and customs. Lambung Bukit Village is a fostered village of Andalas University. Most people in this village are classified as economically deficient because the community generally farms. The level of public knowledge about zinc is still lacking. This service aims to increase public knowledge of the importance of zinc on body health and the provision of zinc supplements to prevent zinc deficiency and is expected to reduce morbidity and mortality due to infection in children. This activity has been carried out at Bustanul Ulum Elementary School in Batu Busuk Village, Lambung Bukit Village, Pauh District, Padang City. Counseling conducted to 48 people (parents of students and teachers). Almost all parents' knowledge is lacking about zinc, the role, source of zinc, and its relation to several diseases. We hope this counseling can increase public knowledge about the importance of zinc on the body, mainly to prevent susceptibility to infections and any food sources that contain zinc. The results of a health examination by pediatricians found two students suffering from Congenital Heart Disease (CHD), poor oral hygiene, and many teeth carious students. Giving zinc syrup to children aged 7-10 years is expected to prevent zinc deficiency in children.
