Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease caused by the bacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Indonesia is the country with the second largest number of TB cases in the world. Tuberculosis in children cases in Indonesia reached 110,881 and West Sumatra is in sixth place with 2,751 cases. Tuberculosis in children cases are often ignored for various reasons such as lack of parental knowledge about preventing TB in children. Health education through audio-visual media and booklets is one of the efforts made to provide health information about preventing TB in children. The purpose of this study was to see changes in parental knowledge before and after intervention with video and booklet media and to compare the effectiveness of each media. This study used the "Pretest-Posttest Two Group Design" design which was conducted in the Pegambiran Health Center Work Area. The sample consisted of 54 people consisting of 2 groups, namely 27 people in the audio-visual media group and 27 people in the booklet media group. Sampling used the Simple Random Sampling technique. Univariate analysis showed frequency distribution and bivariate analysis used the Wilcoxon rank test and the Mann Whitney test. The results of the study with the Wilcoxon test obtained knowledge before and after audio-visual intervention with a p-value of 0.000 <0.05 and booklet media showed a p-value of 0.000 <0.05. The results of the Mann Whitney test with a p-value of 0.284> 0.05. It can be concluded that there is no difference in the effectiveness of using audio-visual media compared to booklet media in increasing parental knowledge about preventing childhood tuberculosis. It is hoped that the Health Center and related agencies will use audio-visual media and booklets in providing health education about preventing TB in children.
