dengue fever
Abstract
Background: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a public health problem in Indonesia,
especially in endemic areas. Active participation of elementary school students through
training as larvae monitors is a key strategy. Objectives: To determine the effect of
larvae monitor training on knowledge and skills in preventing DHF among fifth-grade
students at SDN 2 Sukun Malang. Research Metodes: A pre-experimental study with a one
group pretest-posttest design was conducted involving 30 purposively selected fifth-grade
students. A questionnaire and observation checklist were used, analyzed using paired t-test.
Results: There was a significant increase in knowledge (p < 0.05) and skills (p < 0.05) after the
larvae monitor training was conducted. Conclusion : The study concludes that larvae monitor
training is effective in improving students' knowledge and skills in preventing DHF. The
involvement of students as larvae monitoring cadres is expected to become a sustainable
promotive and preventive strategy in the school environment.
