E-Duva is an application model designed to introduce innovations for delivering information and education about visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) tests. The use of the E-Duva application can facilitate access to information and education for mothers without the need to visit a healthcare facility to learn about the VIA test. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the E-Duva application on the knowledge and attitudes of women of childbearing age (WUS). The study population comprised women of childbearing age (WUS). We employed a quasi-experimental research design with a pretest-posttest design using non-probability purposive sampling. The total sample size in this study was 30 respondents, with 15 women in the control group and 15 women in the intervention group. A questionnaire was used to assess the knowledge of WUS regarding cervical cancer and the VIA test. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Paired T-test. The study results indicate a significant increase in knowledge in both the experimental group (p = 0.000; mean SD 90.88±6.9) and the control group (p = 0.000; mean SD 78.40±10.1). Attitudes toward early detection of cervical cancer were significantly related (p = 0.015). This suggests that a more positive attitude towards early detection of cervical cancer among WUS is associated with a greater willingness to undergo cervical cancer screening. The findings of this study support the role of the E-Duva application in enhancing the knowledge and attitudes of women of childbearing age regarding VIA tests and cervical cancer, emphasizing the potential of technology-driven health education in improving women's health outcome.
