Abstract: Purpose: This article investigates and analyzes effective ways to enhance the digital health literacy of the elderly, providing a basis for decision-making by relevant departments. Method: This study used a randomized controlled trial method to divide the research subjects into an online intervention group (referred to as the online group), an offline intervention group (referred to as the offline group), and a control group. Online or offline DHL improvement training was conducted around three dimensions: "how to search for health resource information, how to distinguish the quality of health resource information, and how to confidently make health information decisions". The eHEALS scores before and after the intervention were compared to observe the effects of different interventions. Result: Before intervention, the total eHEALS scores of the control group, online group, and offline group were 21.38 ± 7.533, 24.31 ± 10.224, and 19.49 ± 7.246, respectively. The results showed no significant difference among the three groups (P>0.05). After intervention, the total scores of the three groups were 21.95 ± 4.987, 27.90 ± 8.747, and 36.80 ± 3.227, respectively, with significant differences between the three groups, and both the online and offline groups were higher than the control group; The offline group was higher than the online group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Both online and offline education can help improve the digital health literacy of the elderly, and offline education forms are superior to online education.
