ABSTRAK   Pada saat kehamilan bisa terjadi  berbagai penyulit kehamilan antara lain mual dan muntah yang sering dialami pada ibu hamil. Pada masa pandemic Covid 19 merupakan masa sulit yang harus di hadapi oleh semua masyarakat termasuk ibu hamil dalam menjalani kehamilannya (RCOG,2020), terutama ibu hamil yang sedang mengalami keluhan mual muntah. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk mengurangi muntal muntah pada ibu hamil dengan melibatkan keluarga. Pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini dilakukan di Desa Tawangsari Kecamatan Taman Kabupaten Sidoarjo. Pelaksanaan Pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini di lakukan selama 4 bulan dengan melibatkan sebanyak 40 ibu hamil yang mengalami mual muntah beserta keluarganya. Ibu hamil 20 orang diberikan akupresure sedangkan 20 orang ibu hamil sebagai kontrol. Metode yang dilakukan adalah melakukan kunjungan rumah dengan pendekatan keluarga family centered maternity care (FCMC), menggunakan protokol kesehatan ketat dengan cara memberikan  akupresure pada kelompok perlakuan sedangkan pada kelompok kontrol hanya di lakukan observasi. Sebelum dilakukan  akupresure pada ibu hamil di lakukan dulu pengukuran mual muntahnya (pre test) dengan menggunakan instrument kuisioner dengan penilaian Score Pregnancy Unique Quantification of Emesis and or Nausea Scoring System  (PUQE). Akupresure  dilakukan dengan cara menekan secara manual pada Pericardium 6 pada daerah pergelangan tangan yaitu 3 jari di atas pergelangan tangan yang segaris dengan jari tengah dilakukan selama 2-5 menit selama 7 hari, setelah itu di lakukan pengukuran kembali(post test). Hasil dari kegiatan ini didapatkan pada kelompok perlakuan  ibu hamil setelah dilakukan akupresure hasil post test terjadi penurunan derajat mual muntahnya sebanyak 16 orang (80%) dan 4 orang (20%) derajat mual muntahnya tetap, sedangkan hasil post test pada kelompok kontrol yang tidak diberikan akupresure sebanyak 18 (90%) derajat mual muntahnya tetap dan 1 orang (10%) mengalami penurunan. Kesimpulan dari kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini yaitu akupresure dapat menurunkan keluhan mual dan muntah ibu hamil. Upaya untuk menurunkan mual muntah ibu hamil ini akan berhasil bila  melibatkan  keluarga untuk itu perlu dilakukan upaya-upaya lanjutan dengan melibatkan peranan keluarga.   Kata kunci : Akupresure,Kehamilan, mual muntah     ABSTRACT   During pregnancy, various complications of pregnancy can occur, including nausea and vomiting that are often experienced by pregnant women. During the Covid-19 pandemic, it was a difficult time that all people, including pregnant women, had to face during their pregnancy (RCOG, 2020), especially pregnant women who were experiencing complaints of nausea and vomiting. This community service activity aims to reduce vomiting and vomiting in pregnant women by involving the family. This community service is carried out in Tawangsari Village, Taman District, Sidoarjo Regency. The implementation of this community service was carried out for 4 months involving as many as 40 pregnant women who experienced nausea and vomiting and their families. 20 pregnant women were given acupressure while 20 pregnant women were as controls. The method used was home visits with a family centered maternity care (FCMC) approach, using strict health protocols by giving acupressure to the treatment group while in the control group only observations were made. Before performing acupressure on pregnant women, the measurement of nausea and vomiting (pre-test) was carried out using a questionnaire instrument with an assessment of the Score Pregnancy Unique Quantification of Emesis and or Nausea Scoring System (PUQE). Acupressure is done by pressing manually on Pericardium 6 in the wrist area, namely 3 fingers above the wrist in line with the middle finger for 2-5 minutes for 7 days, after which the measurement is carried out again (post test). The results of this activity were obtained in the treatment group of pregnant women after acupressure the post test results decreased the degree of nausea and vomiting as many as 16 people (80%) and 4 people (20%) the degree of nausea and vomiting remained, while the post test results in the control group were not given acupressure as much as 18 (90%) the degree of nausea and vomiting remained and 1 person (10%) experienced a decrease. The conclusion of this community service activity is that acupressure can reduce nausea and vomiting complaints of pregnant women. Efforts to reduce nausea and vomiting of pregnant women will be successful if it involves the family for that it is necessary to make further efforts by involving the role of the family.   Keywords: Acupressure, Pregnancy, Nausea, and Vomiting.
