Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus, also abbreviated as DM, is a non-communicable disease whose number of sufferers is increasing. DM (diabetes) sufferers are not only the elderly but also many people of productive age. The Jembrana District Health Service noted that DM is a disease that is included in the top 10 most common diseases in hospitals and health centers in Jembrana. A total of 6,740 DM patients have been registered and controlled at community health centers in Jembrana. Melaya, one of the sub-districts in Jembrana, recorded that during 2020 there were 782 cases recorded. Methods: This type of research is a pre-experimental design using one group pre-test and post-test design. The research location is the Kerta Semaya Samaniya Jembrana Cooperative, Bali. The sampling method was nonprobability sampling using the consecutive method. The total research sample was 38 respondents. The data collection tools used are DKQ and DSMQ. The data analysis used is univariate analysis, bivariate analysis using the Willcoxon Rank Test. Results: Most respondents had poor knowledge and attitudes in the prevention of diabetes mellitus before the intervention, and there was an increase in knowledge and attitudes after respondents were given an audiovisual-based health education intervention. There is an influence of audiovisual-based health education with p = 0.000 (p<0.05), thus it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in knowledge and attitudes between before and after providing audiovisual-based educational videos. Conclusion: Providing audiovisual-based health education about preventing diabetes mellitus has proven to be effective in increasing knowledge and attitudes in preventing diabetes mellitus.
