Abstract


Pengetahuan mengenai penyakit toksoplasmosis sangat penting untuk pencegahan dan pengendalian infeksi yang disebabkan Toksoplasma gondii. Gejala klinis awal terinfeksi toksoplasmosis pada Wanita usia subur (WUS) yang imunokompeten, termasuk didalamnya ibu hamil sangat sulit dideteksi karena biasanya tidak terdapat gejala apa pun. Skrining serologi Toxoplasma memiliki implikasi sebagai satu-satunya cara untuk menentukan infeksi toksoplasmosis pada ibu hamil selama trimester pertama dapat menularkan infeksi pada janin berupa konsekuensi kelainan kongenital yang serius. Pemeriksaan laboratorium toksoplasmosis dengan menggunakan deteksi serologi berbagai antibodi Toxoplasma di Indonesia masih terbilang cukup mahal. Maka dari itu, tujuan dari kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah untuk mengetahui sejauh mana tingkat pengetahuan pencegahan faktor risiko toksoplasmosis pada Wanita usia subur. Dalam kegiatan ini, Wanita usia subur diberikan pretes, dilanjut dengan memberikan penyuluhan dan pembagian leaflet tiga Langkah higientitas pencegahan toksoplasmosis dan diakhiri dengan pengisian postes; dengan jumlah peserta 20 orang WUS. Hasil pretes dan postes dibandingkan dan data terkumpul dianalisis dengan uji Wilcoxon. Rerata hasil skor pengetahuan awal kegiatan adalah 73.15 dan setelah kegiatan adalah 87.4 dengan hasil analisis yang diperoleh p = 0.000 (p<0.005).  Pengabdian masyarakat ini didapati bahwa penyuluhan dan pembagian leaflet tiga Langkah higienitas pencegahan toksoplasmosis berpengaruh terhadap peningkatan pengetahuan pada Wanita usia subur. 

Knowledge of toxoplasmosis is very important for the prevention and control of infections caused by Toxoplasma gondii. Early clinical symptoms of infection with toxoplasmosis in immunocompetent women of childbearing age, including pregnant women, are very difficult to detect because usually there are no symptoms. Toxoplasma serologic screening has implications as the only way to determine whether toxoplasmosis infection in pregnant women during the first trimester can transmit infection to the fetus in the form of serious congenital abnormalities. Toxoplasmosis laboratory examination using serological detection of various Toxoplasma antibodies in Indonesia is still quite expensive. Therefore, the purpose of this community service activity is to determine the level of knowledge of preventing toxoplasmosis risk factors in women of childbearing age. In this activity, women of childbearing age were given a pretest, followed by providing counseling and distributing leaflets of three hygiene steps to prevent toxoplasmosis and ending with filling out the posttest; with 20 participants. The results of the pretest and posttest were compared and the collected data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The mean score of the initial knowledge of the activity was 69.00 and after the activity was 78.90 with the results of the analysis obtained p = 0.000 (p<0.005). From this community service, it was found that counseling and distributing leaflets of three hygiene steps to prevent toxoplasmosis had an effect on increasing knowledge in women of childbearing age.
