EFEKTIVITAS INTERVENSI EDUKASI BERBASIS E-BOOKLET DALAM MENINGKATKAN KUALITAS PERAWATAN DIRI PASIEN CAPD

Abstract

Background: Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) is a crucial treatment option for patients with chronic kidney disease in Indonesia. However, the risk of peritonitis due to poor self-care quality remains a major challenge. Conventional education methods are often ineffective, underscoring the need for interactive digital educational media. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of e-booklet-based educational intervention on improving self care quality among CAPD patients. Methods: A one-group pre-test and post-test design was employed with total sampling of CAPD patients at Dr. Moewardi Hospital, Surakarta. Valid (CVI = 0.963; KMO = 0.911) and reliable (Cronbach’s alpha > 0.92) questionnaire instruments comprising 28 items on a 0–3 Likert scale were used. The intervention involved providing CAPD self-care e-booklets over a one-month period. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: There was a significant improvement in the proportion of patients with good self care quality, increasing from 41.9% to 74.2%, and the number of patients in the poor self-care category dropped to 0% post-intervention. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference (p<.001), with a higher count of positive ranks (17) than negative ranks (14). Conclusion: E-booklet-based educational media significantly enhance the self-care quality of CAPD patients. Recommendation: The e-booklet is recommended as an integral component of routine educational programs to support therapy sustainability and prevent complications.
