Abstract

Introduction. Breast cancer is known as the first killer of cancer. Long-term treatment is more prone to patient compliance problems, lack of understanding of the pain, and saturation of taking medication leads to non-adherence that worsens the patient's condition. This study analyzes the effect of health education with audio-visual media on drug adherence in breast cancer patients Method. This research is a quasi-experiment with a pre-post test control group design. Purposive sampling was carried out for 1 month at the Oncology Polyclinic at Petrokimia Gresik Hospital. Subjects who met the inclusion of 36 patients were evaluated with the MMAS (Morinsky Medication Adherence Scale) questionnaire. The data was then analyzed using the Paired T-test. ResultsThe paired t-test revealed a statistically significant (p = 0.000, α < 0.05) improvement in medication adherence among breast cancer patients following health education with audiovisual media. Conclusion. This suggests that audiovisual media can be an effective tool in enhancing medication adherence in this population. Further research is warranted to explore the optimal content, duration, and frequency of audiovisual interventions. Additionally, studies investigating the cost-effectiveness of this intervention and its impact on other patient outcomes, such as quality of life and treatment efficacy, are needed
