Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by persistently high blood sugar levels, which can lead to complications such as diabetic foot issues. A crucial aspect for healthcare professionals providing care to DM patients is assessing the patient's level of adherence and understanding regarding self-care and disease management. Data from the 2023 SKI (Indonesian Health Survey) indicates there were 118,184 cases of Diabetes Mellitus in Central Java. Foot care education delivered via remote services assists patients in performing proper foot care to prevent complications associated with the condition. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of an animated video based on the Theory of Planned Behavior in improving the knowledge and adherence of patients with diabetic ulcers. A quasi-experimental design was employed, utilizing a one-group pre-test and post-test approach with a control group. Incidental sampling was used to select 60 respondents. The Mann-Whitney test yielded a p-value of < 0.05 (0.017), demonstrating that the animated video based on the Theory of Planned Behavior was effective in enhancing both adherence and knowledge among patients with diabetic ulcers. The findings suggest that this animated video, leveraging audiovisual media, can be implemented in educational settings to help prevent foot complications in patients with diabetes.

High consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) has become an increasing public health concern, particularly among adolescents. Excessive SSB intake is a major risk factor for various non-communicable diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, dental caries, and certain types of cancer. This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with the level of sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption among adolescents. This study employed a descriptive literature review approach. Data were obtained from national and international journals relevant to the topic of SSB consumption among adolescents. The selected articles were analyzed to identify factors associated with SSB consumption. The findings indicated that SSB consumption among adolescents is influenced by several factors, including individual factors (gender and knowledge), socioeconomic factors (peer influence and pocket money allowance), environmental factors (mass media exposure and beverage availability), and psychological factors (stress level and preference for sweet tastes). This study highlights that SSB consumption is a multifactorial behavior influenced by various interacting determinants. Therefore, comprehensive interventions targeting both individual and environmental factors are needed to reduce SSB consumption among adolescents.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the global, national, and regional health problems. DM often requires complex medications and lifestyle management that can impact patients’ daily life, including spiritual practices such as fasting during Ramadhan. For Muslims with DM, fasting during Ramadhan can be challenging due to the need to modify the treatment regimens and risk of hypoglycemia.  This study aimed to analyze the effects of education intervention regarding Ramadhan fasting on knowledge improvement and blood glucose of patient with DM type 2. This study used a case study design involving three patients with DM type 2. All three respondents received education from the researchers. The patients’ knowledge and fasting blood glucose were measured before and after the intervention. The results of this study showed an improvement in knowledge in DM patients after the intervention, while fasting blood sugar results remained unchanged. Based on the results of the study, diabetes mellitus (DM) management education during fasting has been potentially effective in improving respondents' knowledge and prevent hypoglycemia during Ramadhan fasting. In conclusion, education alone is benefit in increasing patient’s knowledge and may prevent hypoglycemia during Ramadhan fasting.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease with a high prevalence in Indonesia that requires appropriate dietary management to prevent complications. Nutrition education plays a crucial role not only in improving patient knowledge but also in influencing eating behavior and dietary compliance. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of nutrition education on dietary compliance and food waste among hospitalized DM patients at Muhammadiyah Hospital Gresik. This pre-experimental research used a one-group pretest–posttest design involving 20 respondents selected through purposive sampling. The independent variable was nutrition education in the form of counseling, leaflets, and direct guidance, while the dependent variables were dietary compliance and food waste, measured using observation and the food weighing method with a scoring system of 0–25–50–75–100%. The results showed a significant increase in dietary compliance from 30% to 75% and a decrease in food waste from 65% to 20% after education (p < 0.05). Thus, nutrition education effectively improves dietary adherence and reduces food waste among DM patients.

Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion. One of the influencing factors for this condition is lifestyle, particularly dietary patterns and physical activity. Objective: This study aims to describe the dietary patterns and physical activities of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients at Kalisat Regional Hospital (RSD), Jember. Method: The research design used is a case study involving two patients diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation studies, and analyzed using nursing care stages. Results: The study found that both patients consumed high amounts of simple carbohydrates such as sugar, sweet cakes, and noodles, exceeding the normal daily intake limits. Physical activity was minimal, limited to light household chores like cleaning and short-distance walking. Conclusion: Both patients were diagnosed with ineffective health management. Nursing interventions focused on behavioral health education to improve patients’ knowledge and motivation in managing Diabetes Mellitus independently.

Type II diabetes mellitus (Type II DM) is a chronic disease that requires long-term self-care skills to prevent serious complications. However, many patients have difficulty managing blood sugar levels independently due to a lack of structured and ongoing education. The Student Creativity Program (PKM) aims to improve the self-care skills of Type II DM patients through an educational approach based on the Self-Care Deficit theory from Dorothea Orem. The activity was carried out in Bonto Ramba, the working area of the Tamalanrea Makassar Health Center, involving 35 participants (33 women and 2 men). Interventions were carried out through interactive counseling, demonstrations of diabetic foot wound care, practice simulations, and the distribution of easy-to-understand educational media. Evaluation was carried out using a pre-post test to measure knowledge improvement and an observation sheet to assess the ability of self-care practice. Results showed a significant improvement in participants' self-care knowledge and skills after the intervention. In addition, family involvement in assisting patients has also increased, strengthening the sustainability of self-care behavior. Participants gave positive feedback on the method of delivering material that was contextual and relevant to daily life. The supportive-educational approach used has been proven effective in empowering patients and building awareness of the importance of self-control of health conditions. This program not only contributes to improving the quality of life of Type II DM patients, but also strengthens the role of the family as the main support in the treatment process. In conclusion, structured education based on Orem theory can be used as an intervention model that can be replicated in other areas with high prevalence of DM, as a promotive and preventive strategy in community-based management of chronic diseases.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and obesity, pose significant health risks for the elderly in Indonesia, including those in Aneuk Paya Village, Lhoknga District, Aceh Besar. These conditions, if left unmanaged, can lead to severe complications, impacting the quality of life of older adults. This community service project aims to improve elderly individuals' understanding of NCDs, as well as their prevention and management, through educational initiatives carried out at the Integrated Health Post (Posbindu). The activities involved interactive counseling sessions, health assessments including blood pressure monitoring, and measurements of body weight, height, waist circumference, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels. The community service event, conducted on July 22, 2025, revealed a significant improvement in the elderly participants’ knowledge about NCDs. Notably, 83% of the participants gained a better understanding of the prevention of NCDs, while 70% reported improved knowledge regarding blood sugar and blood pressure management. Moreover, there was a noticeable increase in the number of elderly individuals attending regular Posbindu visits, which suggests a growing commitment to managing their health. Health education through Posbindu has proven to be an effective tool in raising awareness and changing health behaviors among the elderly, helping to prevent NCD complications. The project demonstrates the pivotal role of Posbindu not only in promoting NCD prevention but also in providing continuous support to the elderly in managing their health, ultimately enhancing their quality of life. This initiative highlights the importance of local health programs in addressing the growing prevalence of NCDs in elderly populations and emphasizes the need for further community-based health interventions.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that requires long-term adherence to treatment. One of the main challenges in managing type 2 DM is the low level of patient adherence to medication. This literature review aims to analyze the effect of health education on improving patients’ knowledge and medication adherence. The review is based on selected scientific articles that discuss the relationship between education, knowledge, and adherence in patients with DM. Findings indicate that health education-delivered through counseling, printed media, self-instructional modules, or home visits—generally improves patients’ understanding of the disease and the importance of regular treatment. This increase in knowledge contributes to better health behavior, particularly in terms of medication compliance. Interactive educational methods that involve healthcare providers and patient families are more effective than one-way communication approaches. Structured and continuous education tailored to patient characteristics has the potential to significantly enhance disease management. Therefore, health education should be prioritized as a key strategy to improve treatment adherence and prevent long-term complications in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Hypertension and diabetes mellitus, which many elderly suffer from, are a significant problem in Indonesia because they pose a risk of serious complications and even death. At the Olak Kemang Community Health Center, the incidence of hypertension and diabetes mellitus in the elderly has increased. However, the scope of elderly people's active participation in various hypertension and diabetes mellitus management programs is still low. Based on the results of the team's research and initial observations, it is known that the main cause of this problem is a lack of family support and limited knowledge about the efforts that families must make in managing illnesses in the elderly. This situation indicates weak family functioning which has an impact on health. This community service activity aims to strengthen family functions and self-care behavior for elderly people with hypertension and diabetes mellitus in the work area of the Olak Kemang Community Health Center through the implementation of Posdaya (Family Empowerment Post). Posdaya activities include counseling about family functions, developing family skills to manage hypertension and diabetes mellitus in the elderly, as well as assisting families to be able to access various application-based health services for the elderly and families. The activity was attended by 20 elderly people and their families. The results of the activity showed that 80% of participants experienced increased knowledge. In addition, participants provided statements of attitude to improve family function and implement self-care behavior for elderly people with hypertension and diabetes mellitus.
