Abstract

Tuberculosis is the biggest infectious disease killer in the world and has long been faced by various countries, including Indonesia. Many TB prevention control programs have been implemented, but public compliance with preventing TB transmission is still low. The research aims to determine the effectiveness of health coaching through TB ​​cards in preventing TB transmission. Quasi-experimental quantitative research design pre-post-test with control group. Purposive sampling technique. The number of respondents in the control and treatment groups was 15 each. Data analysis to measure the significance of the average difference between the 2 groups used the non-parametric Wilcoxon test and the Mann Whitney test. The results of statistical tests show that knowledge p value = 0.000, attitude p value = 0.000 and action p value = 0.000 (p < 0.005). Overall, the research shows that health education through TB ​​cards is effective in increasing TB prevention behavior in the community. Structured and easily accessible information via the TB Card helps the public understand TB transmission, symptoms and preventive measures. Health guidance through TB ​​cards also contributes to community empowerment.
