Abstract

Risk factors that can trigger diarrhea are environmental factors, community behavior factors, lack of community knowledge about diarrhea, and malnutrition. Mothers' knowledge plays a major role when diarrhea occurs, such as assessment, control, and prevention techniques. The actions taken by mothers when diarrhea occurs will determine the morbidity in children. Objective: To determine the effect of education on mothers' knowledge of diarrhea management in the upstream village of Pancur Batu subdistrict. Methods: This study was quantitative in nature, using a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest posttest design and a population of 50 respondents, with a sample size of 50 respondents. The independent variable was diarrhea education for mothers, and the dependent variable was mothers' knowledge level. The statistical test used was the paired sample t-test. Results: There was a significant increase in mothers' knowledge about diarrhea management in toddlers after education, with a significant value of 0.001 (p < 0.05) and showing that the average score of mothers' knowledge about diarrhea management in toddlers increased from a score of 48.30 to 79. Conclusion: Education has a positive effect on increasing mothers' knowledge about diarrhea management in toddlers in Hulu Village, Pancur Batu District.
