Hipertensi merupakan penyakit tidak menular yang dapat menyebabkan komplikasi seperti stroke, penyakit jantung, dan gagal ginjal. Rendahnya pengetahuan penderita hipertensi dapat mempengaruhi pengendalian tekanan darah. Salah satu upaya untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan penderita hipertensi adalah melalui pendidikan kesehatan menggunakan media audiovisual. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektivitas pendidikan kesehatan melalui media audiovisual terhadap tingkat pengetahuan penderita hipertensi di Puskesmas Simpang IV Sipin Kota Jambi Tahun 2026. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan desain pre eksperimental menggunakan pendekatan one group pretest-posttest design. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada tanggal 2 Mei 2026 dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 20 responden yang diambil menggunakan teknik accidental sampling. Instrumen penelitian menggunakan kuesioner pengetahuan hipertensi. Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat dan bivariat menggunakan uji Paired Sample T-Test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan nilai rata-rata pengetahuan responden sebelum diberikan pendidikan kesehatan adalah 7,80 dengan standar deviasi 1,542 dan setelah diberikan pendidikan kesehatan meningkat menjadi 12,65 dengan standar deviasi 1,461. Hasil uji statistik diperoleh nilai p-value = 0,000 (

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease capable of precipitating severe complications, including stroke, cardiovascular disease, and renal failure. Deficiencies in patient knowledge often subvert optimal blood pressure management. To address this issue, health education utilizing audiovisual media serves as a strategic intervention to enhance patients' understanding. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of audiovisual-based health education on the knowledge levels of hypertensive patients at Puskesmas Simpang IV Sipin, Jambi City, in 2026. This quantitative study employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. Conducted on May 2, 2026, the study involved 20 respondents selected via accidental sampling. Data were gathered using a validated hypertension knowledge questionnaire and subsequently subjected to univariate and bivariate analyses, utilizing the Paired Sample T-Test. The findings revealed that the mean knowledge score of respondents prior to the intervention was 7.80 with a standard deviation of 1.542. Following the health education session, the mean score significantly increased to 12.65 with a standard deviation of 1.461. Statistical analysis yielded a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), demonstrating that audiovisual-based health education exerts a statistically significant effect on enhancing patient knowledge. In conclusion, health education delivered through audiovisual media is highly effective in improving the knowledge levels of hypertensive patients, as it successfully optimizes the respondents' attention, comprehension, and retention of the health information provided.
