Ignorance of help and incompetent BLS management of a helper often occur in real cases in the field. This study aimed to determine the effect of health education on basic life support to the level of public knowledge. This research design used Pre- Experimental Design, with One Group Pretest-Posttest Design method. The population of this research is the community of Dlanggu District, Mojokerto Regency. The sample was taken as many as 59 respondents. The sampling method used is Probability type Simple Random Sampling. The data were collected using a questionnaire. The data was analyzed by using Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test with a significance level <0.05. The results showed a significance value of 0.000 (p<0.05), thus it can be concluded that there were significant differences before and after the provision of health education about BLS procedures.
Diabetes Mellitus merupakan kelompok penyakit metabolik yang ditandai hiperglikemia. Keadaan hiperglikemia tersebut dapat menyebabkan krisis hiperglikemik yang mempunyai angka morbiditas dan mortalitas yang tinggi. Salah satu intervensi yang dapat dilakukan untuk menurunkan kadar gula darah adalah dengan electrical stimulation. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh electrical stimulation terhadap penurunan kadar gula darah pada pasien diabetes mellitus.

Instrumen penelitian menggunakan electrical stimulation set Glukometer, dan SOP. Hasil penelitian responden mempunyai kadar gula darah rata-rata sebelum electrical stimulation sebesar 261,2 mg/dL, sedangkan kadar gula darah sesudah electrical stimulation rata-rata 211,6 mg/dL. Hasil analisa dengan menggunakan uji t sampel berpasangan menunjukkan bahwa p value = 0,000 < α (0,05) sehingga terdapat pengaruh electrical stimulation terhadap penurunan kadar gula darah pada pasien diabetes mellitus di Puskesmas Gayaman Mojokerto. Electrical stimulation dapat menurunkan kadar gula darah pasien diabetes mellitus.
