Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia that occurs due to abnormalities in insulin secretion, insulin action or both and is often accompanied by increased blood pressure. One of the drug-related problems that are frequently encountered is patient non-compliance in taking drugs. This can occur due to a lack of knowledge about managing pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies, making therapeutic outcomes difficult. This study aims to determine the effect of visual media education on managing pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment on the level of knowledge of type 2 DM patients with comorbid hypertension. This type of research is quasi-experimental, with pretest and posttest designs without a control group design. The research sample is the age group that has the age of 18-68 years, as many as 123 people using Purposive Sampling. The results showed that the level of knowledge before being given education was in a good category (4.81%), sufficient (42.29%), and less (52.90%). After being given education visual media, there was an increase in knowledge results for the good (74.25%), sufficient (18.14%) and poor (7.61%) categories. The results of the Wilcoxon test analysis obtained a p-value (0.000) < (0.005), which means that there is an effect of visual media education on the level of knowledge of type 2 DM patients with comorbid hypertension. Through the results of this study, it is hoped that pharmacists can provide ongoing educational counselling to chronic disease patients receiving polypharmacy to prevent drug-related problems.

Abstract

People who seek self-medication for acute headaches in pharmacies are not properly diagnosed and treated. Irrational drug use has a high potential for causing medication errors. The AKO application is one of the digital counseling service apps managed by a pharmacist who has a strategic role in educating patients on self-medication behavior in telemedicine services. The objective of this study is to identify the benefits of AKO use in increasing rational self-medication behavior in headache complaints. It is a descriptive analysis study with a case-control design. The population is the Lamongan community who have had headache self-medication. Samples were taken by purposive sampling technique. A total of 130 participants were divided into two groups: the intervention group and the control group. A headache self-medication questionnaire was employed as the instrument. The collected data was then analyzed using the Mann Whitney test to determine the value of the AKO application in increasing knowledge of the rationality of self-medication in headache complaints. The data from the measurement of the level of knowledge of the rationality of headache self-medication revealed that the majority of the intervention group (92.3%) had good knowledge and none had poor knowledge. While there are still respondents with less knowledge (15.3%) in the control group. The statistical test results for the benefits of AKO application assistance on the level of knowledge of the rationality of headache self-medication revealed a p value = 0.000, indicating a significant difference between the intervention and treatment groups. The use of telemedicine via the AKO application can increase public awareness of the rational use of headache medications. Digital health services can be used as a medium for counseling and remote patient health monitoring.
