Abstract: Diabetics are at high risk of developing chronic disease problems such as diabetic foot injuries. Diabetic foot injuries can be prevented if diabetics have good knowledge so that they are able to carry out diabetic foot care. The provision of DSME can facilitate the knowledge and ability of diabetes mellitus clients to carry out self-care. This study aims to analyze the effect of DSME on the prevention of diabetic foot injuries. The method used is a quasi-experiment with one group pre-test post-test design. Data collection uses research instruments in the form of questionnaires. The study sample used was 55 people with a purposive sampling technique. The data analysis technique used is the marginal homoegenity test. The results showed that there was an effect of DSME on the prevention of diabetic foot injuries. It is hoped that the Center for Public Health can make DSME a regular health promotion program to improve the self-care ability of type 2 diabetes mellitus clients while preventing complications from diabetic foot injuries.
