Masyarakat pesisir memiliki gaya hidup yang cenderung mengonsumsi makanan tinggi lemak serta mempunyai kebiasaaan merokok yang tinggi. Kebiasaan ini menyebabkan prevalensi penyakit kardiovaskular meningkat di daerah tersebut. Penyakit kardiovaskular merupakan salah satu penyakit tidak menular yang memiliki angka prevalensi cukup besar, sebanyak 15 dari 1000 orang di Indonesia menderita pernyakit kardiovaskular. Kebiasaan merokok, obesitas, kurang aktivitas fisik, dan hiperkolesterolemia merupakan faktor risiko penyakit kardiovaskular yang dapat dimodifikasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran status merokok, rasio lingkar pinggang-panggul, aktivitas fisik, dan kadar kolesterol total pada masyarakat di Wilayah Pesisir Simeulue. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif analitik dengan rancangan cross-sectional. Penelitian ini berlokasi di Desa Kota Batu Kecamatan Simeulu Timur Kabupaten Simeulu Provinsi Aceh. Sampel penelitian ini adalah penduduk laki-laki berjumlah 95 orang yang berusia minimal 21 tahun. Didapatkan mayoritas penduduk laki-laki di Wilayah Pesisir Simeulue merupakan perokok aktif (72,6%), sebagian kecil penduduk memiliki status RLPP meningkat/berisiko (31,6%), sebagian besar responden memiliki derajat aktivitas fisik tinggi (73,7%), serta pengukuran kadar kolesterol total didapatkan persentase penduduk dengan kolesterol sedikit tinggi (25,3%) dan kategori tinggi (12,6%). Adanya penduduk yang merokok, mengalami obesitas, kurang beraktivitas fisik, dan menderita hiperkolesterolemia menyebabkan peningkatan risiko penyakit kardiovaskular di suatu wilayah. Diperlukan promosi gaya hidup sehat, seperti mengurangi kebiasaan merokok dan meningkatkan aktivitas fisik untuk menurunkan risiko penyakit kardiovaskular pada masyarakat di Wilayah Pesisir ini.

Coastal communities have a lifestyle that tends to consume high-fat foods and have high smoking habits. These habits cause the prevalence of cardiovascular disease to increase in the area. Cardiovaskular disease is a non-communicable disease that has a fairly large prevalence rate, as many as 15 out of 1000 people in Indonesia suffer from cardiovascular disease. Smoking habits, obesity, lack of physical activity, and hypercholesterolemia are modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease. This research focus on the coastal area because the lifestyle of the community tends to consume high-fat foods and has a high smoking habit. This habit increase the prevalence of cardiovascular disease in the area. This study aims to determine the description of smoking status, waist-to-hip circumference ratio, physical activity, and total cholesterol levels in communities in the Simeulue Coastal Area. This research uses descriptive analytical methods with a cross-sectional design. This research is located in Kota Batu Village, East Simeulu District, Simeulu Regency, Aceh Province. The sample for this research was 95 male residents who were at least 21 years old. it was found that the majority of the male population in the Simeulue coastal area were active smokers (72.6%), a small proportion of the population had increased/at risk RLPP status (31.6%), the majority of respondents had a high degree of physical activity (73, 7%), as well as measuring total cholesterol levels, it was found that the percentage of the population with slightly high cholesterol (25.3%) and the high category (12.6%). The presence of residents who smoke, are obese, lack physical activity, and suffer from hypercholesterolemia cause an increased risk of cardiovascular disease in an area. It is necessary to promote healthy lifestyles, such as reducing smoking habits and increasing physical activity to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in this coastal area.
