Karangasem, August 30, 2022

On August 5 2022, the Psychiatry Specialist Study Program, Faculty of Medicine, Udayana University held a social service event related to the early detection of mental disorders due to Covid-19 in Parisada High School students, Amlapura. The implementation of social service activities for mental health services is organized in the context of practicing the Tri Dharma of Higher Education from Udayana University as part of the Progam Udayana Mengabdi (PUM).


This event was initiated by dr. Ida Aju Kusuma Wardani, Sp.KJ (K), MARS; dr. Ni Ketut Putri Ariani, Sp.KJ (K); dr. Ni Ketut Sri Diniari, Sp.KJ (K); and Dr. dr. Luh Nyoman Alit Aryani, Sp.KJ (K) as Head of Study Program.


The event was held thanks to the collaboration of the Unud Faculty of Medicine and Parisada Amlapura High School, Karangasem. The activity began with screening of students by filling out the Children Depression Inventory (CDI) questionnaire. After obtaining the screening results from the students, we continued with counseling session to the students.


The lecture was delivered by dr. Ida Aju Kusuma Wardani, SpKJ(K), MARS as organizer of the social event. Counseling participants consisted of 65 students of grades X-XII, 5 teachers and 1 vice principal of SMA Parisada Amlapura. The participants seemed enthusiastic about listening to the counseling topics given and were active in the question and answer session. In the question and answer session there were 20 questioners and each questioner received a souvenir from the committee. After the screening and counseling activities were completed, participants received basic food packages from the committee. The event ends at 12.00 WITA.


For the assessment of the results on the CDI questionnaire, a reference value of < 20 is said to be normal and a reference value of ? 20 is said to be likely to have depressive disorders in children. Based on this reference value, out of 65 respondents who filled out the questionnaire, the results showed that 6 people (9.23%) had depressive disorders in children.


In general, this activity ran smoothly and received high enthusiasm from students. The total number of participants reached 71 people. It is hoped that routine social service activities are carried out as ongoing services, so that they can benefit doctors and of course the community.
