AbstractThe degree of health is influenced by many factors including the environment, behavior, health services and heredity. health is a basic human right and is one of the factors that determine the quality of human resources. The use of contraception is an effort to maintain health. there are various kinds of contraception one of which is the IUD. Intrauterine device (IUD) or also called an intrauterine device (IUD) is a very effective method of contraception to prevent pregnancy reaching 99.7%. IUD birth control has many advantages including a long effective period of contraception that is 3-5 years, no hassle to remember the medication schedule, no need to change devices, or refill prescriptions and return to the doctor or midwifeto repeat contraception and most importantly the return of fertility can occur immediately after removing the IUD. These advantages make IUD birth control a pregnancy delay tool that is most effective compared to other contraceptives. the lack of mother's knowledge about the benefits of using the IUD birth control program and the large amount of incorrect information makes mothers reluctant to use the IUD birth control program. Current conditions, the use of effective long-term contraceptive methods, especially the IUD, has relatively decreased while the use of hormonal contraceptive methods dominates. the provision of information through counseling is aimed at women of childbearing age and pregnant women so that they can provide appropriate information about the benefits of using KB IUDs and the awareness of mothers to use safer contraception andlong-term. long-range

Program Indonesia Sehat yang diluncurkan Kementerian Kesehatan tahun 2016, disebabkan oleh masih belum tercapainya misi “Indonesia Sehat”sesuai target yang telahditetapkan. Berbagai masalah kesehatan yang belumtercapai salah satunya adalah Pencapaian Program Keluarga Berencana.Tujuan penelitan ini adalah mengetahui bagaimana peran keluarga dalam Program Indonesia sehat dengan pendekatan keluarga (PIS-PK) dalam Program Keluarga Berencana. Desain penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Diskriptif dengan pendekatan Cross Sectional. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh keluarga di wilayah Puskesmas Sumurgung Kecamatan Palang Kabupaten Tuban, yaitu sebanyak 9570 keluarga, dengan tehnik pengambilan sampel secara Cluster diperoleh sampel sebanyak 384 keluarga.Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan kuesioner, yang diambil dari materi lembar balik dari Program Indonesia Sehat dengan Pendekatan Keluarga (PIS-PK) dari Kementerian Kesehatan. Data yang terkumpul dianalisa dengan prosentase dan disajikan dalam bentuk tabel. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Peran keluarga dalam mengikuti Program Keluarga Berencana, mengacu dari pelaksanaan 5 tugas keluarga yaitu Mayoritas keluarga (99,22%) Mengenal tentang Keluarga Berencana, Lebih dari separoh keluarga (68, 23 %)  mampu mengambil Keputusan untuk melakukan Keluarga Berencana, Lebih dari separoh keluarga (51,82%)  mengikuti program Keluarga Berencana, Lebih dari separoh keluarga (56,25%)  mampu memodifikasi Lingkungan bagi keluarga yang mengikuti Kb, dan Mayoritas keluarga (99,22%)  mampu memanfaatkan fasilitas kesehatan terdekat untuk ikut program keluarga Berencana. Untuk tetap meningkatkan peran keluarga yang belum optimal kerjasama petugas kesehatan/pelayanan kesehatan terdekat, kader kesehatan dan keluarga sangat dibutuhkan, agar program ini tetap bisa berjalan secara berkesinambungan, dan mencapai hasil yang diharapkan. The Healthy Indonesia Program launched by the Ministry of Health in 2016 was the consequence of the "Healthy Indonesia" mission which was not achieved the targets set. One of achievement which was not achieved the target set was the Birth Control Program. The purpose of this study was to find out the way how to improve the role of families in the healthy Indonesia Program with the family approach (PIS-PK) in the Birth Control Program. The study used descriptive with Cross Sectional approach. The population in this study was the whole family in the area of the Puskesmas in Sumurgung District in Palang District in Tuban,  as many as 9570 families. The sample was 384 families taken by cluster sampling technique. The data was collected by questionnaire, taken from the flipchart material from the Healthy Indonesia Program with the Family Approach (PIS-PK) from the Ministry of Health. The collected data was analyzed with a percentage and presented in tabular form. The results of the study showed that family behavior follows the Birth Control Program, referring to the implementation of 5 family tasks. The majority of families (99.22%) were familiar with birth control program, more than half of families (68, 23%) are able to make decisions to do birth control program, more than half of families (51.82%) follow the family birth control program, more than half of families (56.25%) were able to modify the environment for families following the Kb, and the majority of families (99.22%) were able to utilize the nearest health facility to participate in the birth control program. In order to increase the role of the family that was not optimal the cooperation of health workers / closest health services, health cadres and families are needed, so that this program can continue to run continuously, and achieve the expected results.

Birth Control Program

ABSTRACT: For canine and feline population management in an urban area, a set of well-developed strategies is required to prevent overpopulation, the abandonment of animals, and zoonosis. An understanding of the dynamics of these populations and a characterization of these populations are necessary for action planning. The proposed strategies should be monitored and evaluated so that canine and feline population management programs are properly implemented. Population management programs can be improved through evidence based adaptive management. The objective of this study was to characterize the canine and feline populations and their dynamics in an urban area and to evaluate the impact of a birth control program. Three cross-sectional census surveys and a birth control program were conducted in a neighborhood of São Paulo area with 4,275 households. The two first surveys were performed in 2005 and 2006, prior to implementation of the birth control program, and were used to characterize the canine and feline populations. The third survey was performed in 2008, eighteen months after the birth control strategy had been established. The canine population decreased from 2006 to 2008, after birth control. The mean age for the canine population was 3.36 years; 65% of the dogs were younger than 3 years of age. The mean life expectancy at birth was 3.9 years for male dogs and 5.9 years for female dogs. The mean age for the feline population was 1.66 years; 74% of the cats were 1 year of age or less. The canine and feline populations had a high mortality rate for juveniles younger than 1 year of age. There was an 8% and an 18% decrease in canine and feline birth rates, respectively, after spay or neuter intervention. There was a high animal population turnover, which was more pronounced in the feline population.

The Impact

Web- and application-based prescription services have been heralded as “Uber for birth control,” offering patients the convenience of obtaining hormonal contraceptives at the touch of a smartphone screen. This innovation stands poised to disrupt a system that currently fails to meet the contraceptive needs of many women, particularly adolescents and those who are rural or low-income. The creation of online contraceptive prescribers provides a new and promising avenue for increased access to hormonal birth control. However, the reach and coverage of these services, as well as their implications for public health goals, including unintended pregnancy and various health screenings, remains unclear. In this article, we describe the current landscape of online contraceptive services and identify the potential impacts on unplanned pregnancy and other health outcomes. We find these services may reduce geographic and logistical barriers for rural and low-income populations. However, their impact on access for adolescents is likely to be minimal, as more than half the services do not prescribe to minors. Furthermore, increasing use of telemedicine may reduce rates of screening for public health concerns, including interpartner violence, sexually transmitted infections, and cervical cancer. We offer specific recommendations for future research to evaluate the impact of these services on unplanned pregnancy and other public health outcomes.
