Abstract

AN OVERVIEM OF URIC ACIS LEVELS AMONG THE ELDERLY AT POSYANDU IN PERING VILLAGE, BLAHBATUH DISTRICT, GIANYAR REGENCY Background: Uric acid is one of the non-communicable diseases that commonly occurs in the elderly due to degenerative processes that cause a decline in body functions, especially kidney function in excreting uric acid. Increased uric acid levels can be influenced by several factors such as age, gender, body mass index (BMI), and physical activity. Desa Pering is one of the areas with a relatively high elderly population, however, data regarding the description of uric acid levels among the elderly in this area is still limited. Objective: This study aims to describe uric acid levels among the elderly at Posyandu Lansia in Desa Pering, Blahbatuh District, Gianyar Regency. Methods: This study was a descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 78 elderly respondents selected using purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through interviews, questionnaires, and uric acid examination using the Point of Care Testing (POCT) method with capillary blood samples. Data were analyzed descriptively and presented in frequency distribution tables. Results: The results showed that most respondents were female (78.2%), aged 60–74 years (76.9%), had a BMI categorized as overweight (51.3%), and had light physical activity (62.8%). Most respondents had normal uric acid levels (79.49%), while 20.51% had high uric acid levels.Conclusion: Most elderly at Posyandu Lansia in Desa Pering have normal uric acid levels. However, some still have high uric acid levels influenced by factors such as age, gender, BMI, and physical activity. Therefore, preventive efforts through a healthy lifestyle and regular health check-ups are necessary. GAMBARAN KADAR ASAM URAT PADA POSYANDU LANSIA DI DESA PERING KECAMATAN BLAHBATUH KABUPATEN GIANYAR Latar belakang: Asam urat merupakan salah satu penyakit tidak menular yang sering terjadi pada lansia akibat proses degeneratif yang menyebabkan penurunan fungsi tubuh, terutama fungsi ginjal dalam mengekskresikan asam urat. Peningkatan kadar asam urat dapat dipengaruhi oleh berbagai faktor seperti usia, jenis kelamin, indeks massa tubuh (IMT), dan aktivitas fisik. Desa Pering merupakan salah satu wilayah dengan jumlah lansia yang cukup tinggi, namun data mengenai gambaran kadar asam urat pada lansia di wilayah tersebut masih terbatas. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran kadar asam urat pada lansia di Posyandu Desa Pering, Kecamatan Blahbatuh, Kabupaten Gianyar. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 78 responden lansia yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara, kuesioner, serta pemeriksaan kadar asam urat menggunakan metode Point of Care Testing (POCT) dengan sampel darah kapiler. Data dianalisis secara deskriptif dan disajikan dalam bentuk tabel distribusi frekuensi. Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar responden berjenis kelamin perempuan (78,2%), berada pada kelompok usia 60–74 tahun (76,9%), memiliki IMT kategori berat badan lebih (51,3%), dan aktivitas fisik ringan (62,8%). Kadar asam urat responden sebagian besar berada dalam kategori normal yaitu sebanyak 62 responden (79,49%), sedangkan kategori tinggi sebanyak 16 responden (20,51%). Kesimpulan: Sebagian besar lansia di Posyandu Desa Pering memiliki kadar asam urat dalam kategori normal. Namun, masih terdapat sebagian lansia dengan kadar asam urat tinggi yang dipengaruhi oleh faktor usia, jenis kelamin, IMT, dan aktivitas fisik, sehingga diperlukan upaya pencegahan melalui pola hidup sehat dan pemeriksaan rutin.
