However, many of them are still uninformed of this complaint. Education plays an important role in the management of xerosis cutis, such as how to identify and avoid triggering factors and how to break the itch-scratch cycle. Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the level of knowledge on xerosis cutis in the elderly population after receiving health education. Methods: This observational study involved 71 subjects who met the inclusion criteria of being elderly and were willing to participate in this study. The data were collected using questionnaires. The level of knowledge was assessed before and after the health education around xerosis cutis. Result: Eleven (15.49%) male and 60 (84.51%) female subjects participated in this study. There was a significant difference mean scores between the pre-test and post-test after health education (p= <0.001). The means of total scores of the pre-test and post-test were 11.72 ± 1.475 and 12.58 ± 1.662. The questionnaire consisted of  chapters regarding skin changes in the elderly, risk factors for xerosis cutis, and management of xerosis cutis. A significant difference in score between the pre-test and post-test was found in all the chapters (p=0.046, p=0.002, and p=0.006). Conclusion: Following health education, there was an improvement in the elderly's level of knowledge on xerosis cutis.

The diagnosis of  superficial dermatomycosis is established clinically, and supported by several examinations, such as microscopic examination, fungal culture, and Wood's lamp examination for certain species. Purpose: This study is to evaluate the improvement of the knowledge of general practitioners and medical analysts after education and workshop. Methods: This cross-sectional observational study involved 70 subjects, consisting of 35 general practitioners and 35 medical analysts from 35 public health centers in Bojonegoro who were willing to participate in this study. The level of knowledge was assessed before and after the health education on laboratory examination for the diagnosis of superficial dermatomycosis. Result: There was a significant difference in mean scores between the pre-test and post-test after health education (p = <0.001). The mean knowledge score of the pre-test before intervention among general practitioners was 36.57 ± 19.088, which increased to 68.00 ± 13.240, and the mean knowledge score before intervention among analysts was 27.14 ± 13.842, which increased to 62.00 ± 12.078 after health education intervention.
