<![CDATA[Abstrak : Keluhan demam sering terjadi pada banyak penyakit mulai kondisi ringan hingga penyakit yang membutuhkan perawatan segera seperti Deman berdarah dengue (DBD) namun masyarakat sering kurang menyadari sehingga berakibat fatal akhirnya menyebabkan kematian.Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui pengaruh metode edukasi ceramah dan diskusi terhadap pengetahuan kader kesehatan dalam deteksi dini DBD. Desain penelitian menggunakan pretest postest without control group. Total populasi diambil menjadi sampel yaitu 30 kader kesehatan di desa Suruhwadang kecamatan Kademangan kabupaten Blitar. Pengetahuan kader kesehatan meliputi pemahaman pengertian, mengenali tanda gejala, penyebab, penatalaksanaan, pencegahan, siklus/fase DBD dan tanda sindrom syok dengue yang diukur dengan kuesioner. Analisis data dengan Wilcoxon sign rank test. 53 % kader kesehatan mempunyai pengetahuan baik saat pretest menjadi 83% saat posttest. Analisa data menunjukkan ada perbedaan pengetahuan kader kesehatan antara pretest dan postest (p=0,001). Perpaduan metode edukasi ceramah dan diskusi menjadi metode yang tepat karena peserta edukasi tidak hanya pasif mendengarkan edukator tetapi dapat menjadi lebih aktif untuk menyampaikan pendapat, membuat kesimpulan atau memecahkan masalah sesuai materi yang dipelajari. Diharapkan petugas kesehatan dapat meningkatkan pengetahuan kader kesehatan dalam deteksi dini DBD untuk mencegah akibat fatal dari penyakit ini.
