Description
Introduction: The tobacco production process has a negative health impact
on tobacco workers. Every day, tobacco farmers who plant, process, and
harvest can absorb as much nicotine as the amount of nicotine found in 50
cigarettes. Therefore, tobacco farmers are at risk of acute nicotine
poisoning known as Green Tobacco Sickness (GTS). The aim of the study
was to determine the effect of educational videos on increasing tobacco
farmers’ knowledge of first aid for GTS in Kedungadem Village,
Kedungadem District, Bojonegoro Regency.
Methods: This research used a pre-experimental one group pre-test post-
test design. The population was 129 tobacco farmers. The sample was 97
tobacco farmers who were recruited by cluster random sampling. The data
were obtained by a questionnaire and analyzed by paired t-test (α≤ 0.05).
Results: The results showed that 63 farmers (64.5%) had a low level of
knowledge before educational videos were played and increased to 84.5%
after the videos were played. The results of the paired t-test indicated that
there was an effect of educational videos on tobacco farmers’ knowledge
of first aid for GTS (P = 0.000).
Conclusion: Health education using videos can increase tobacco farmers'
knowledge about first aid for GTS. Videos can be used as alternative media
for providing health education to the community. Further researchers can
provide a control group and/or use a different method.
