Abstract

In 2020, an estimated 287,000 maternal deaths occurred, equivalent to one death every two minutes. A recent WHO study reported that hemorrhage, most often occurring during or after childbirth, was responsible for nearly a third (27%) of maternal deaths, with preeclampsia and other hypertensive disorders contributing an additional 16%. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of health education on the knowledge of high-risk pregnant women regarding the prevention of pregnancy complications in the Bukit Mulya Community Health Center (Puskesmas) working area in Mukomuko Regency. This study used a quasi-experimental "one-group pretest-posttest" design, involving only one group without a control group. The pretest was administered to each respondent before the treatment. The researcher then administered the treatment to each respondent, and then administered the posttest to 33 respondents using a total sampling technique. Univariate analysis revealed that more than half of the respondents 19 (57.6%) in the Bukit Mulya Community Health Center working area in Mukomuko Regency) had poor knowledge before receiving health education, while more than half 17 (51.5%) had good knowledge after receiving health education. The bivariate analysis results, due to the data being normally distributed, yielded a paired samples test with a p-value of 0.000 < 0.05. Therefore, Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted, indicating a significant effect between health education and the knowledge of high-risk pregnant women regarding preventing pregnancy complications. This is to ensure that health workers can improve and maintain the provision of planned and continuous health education to high-risk pregnant women using engaging and easy-to-understand methods and media.

Abstract

Menarche is the first sign of puberty in adolescent girls, marking the maturity of reproductive function. Lack of knowledge about menarche can cause anxiety, especially among students with disabilities. Audio-visual media are considered effective because they can convey information in a more interesting and easily understood way for children with special needs (Pratiwi et al., 2022). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of audio-visual media on knowledge about menarche among female students with disabilities in Bengkulu City in 2025.  The research method used was a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The sample consisted of 30 female students with disabilities who had not yet experienced menarche, selected using probability sampling techniques. Data collection was conducted using a questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon test.  The results showed that before being exposed to audio-visual media, the majority of respondents were in the low knowledge category, with 19 individuals (63.3%), 9 individuals (30%) in the adequate category, and 2 individuals (6.7%) in the good category. After being provided with audio-visual media, almost all respondents were in the good category, namely 28 (93.3%) and 2 (6.7%) in the adequate category. The Wilcoxon test results showed a p-value of 0.001 (p 0.05), indicating a significant effect of audio-visual media on improving knowledge about menarche among disabled female students. Conclusion: Audio-visual media significantly influences the improvement of knowledge about menarche among disabled female students. This medium can serve as an effective educational alternative in reproductive health education.
