PEMBERDAYAAN IBU HAMIL DALAM MENINGKATKAN KEBUGARAN DENGAN INOVASI IKHA DIGITAL DI DESA NAMBO

Abstract

Pregnancy is a critical period that requires regular health monitoring. This community service program was carried out in Nambo Village, Bogor Regency, with the aim of improving the fitness of pregnant women through the use of the “Intensive Antenatal Physiotherapy for Safe and Healthy Pregnancy and Childbirth (FA IKHA)” digital app and antenatal exercise. Health activities included door-to-door screenings, fitness assessments using the Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), education on using the IKHA Digital app, and three sessions of prenatal exercise led by community health workers. The results of the activities showed an increase in pregnant women’s knowledge and participation regarding the importance of physical activity and self-monitoring of their health during pregnancy. The number of participants in the prenatal exercise sessions increased compared to the previous implementation, and health cadres demonstrated a good understanding of how to use the IKHA Digital app. The sustainability of the program requires the support of health workers, cadres, and the village government so that the benefits obtained can be optimally maintained.
