Environmental factors and drinking water are risk factors for diarrhea. it is important to examine the influence of environmental hygiene factors and drinking water on the incidence of diarrhea. Therefore, this study presents information regarding the influence of environmental cleanliness and drinking water on diarrhea by reviewing empirical studies in previous and current research. In order to identify the influence of environmental cleanliness and drinking water factors on the incidence of diarrhea, a review of literature collected from the PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar databases in English and Indonesian was carried out. Literature taken from the last 10 years, namely from 2014 to 2024 and in the form of full text publications. Environmental sanitation factors and good drinking water play an important role in determining how susceptible a person is to gastroenteritis or diarrhea. The availability of clean drinking water is the most important factor in preventing diarrhea. Lack of clean water has emerged as one of the main factors causing diarrhea. Access to proper and clean drinking water is obtained from protected drinking water sources, including tap water (taps), public hydrants, public taps, water terminals, rainwater reservoirs or protected springs and wells, drilled wells/pumps that are at least a distance away 10 meters from waste disposal facilities can prevent diarrhea.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Toddlers are a highly vulnerable group to diseases transmitted from their surroundings as they are heavily dependent on their parents. Diarrhea remains a global health issue, including in Indonesia. The mortality rate from diarrhea among toddlers remains high in Indonesia, and one of the major risk factors influencing diarrhea in toddlers is environmental sanitation. To identify the potential impact of environmental sanitation on the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers. This research uses a systematic review method by searching literature in various databases. The databases used are Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, PubMed, Scopus, and SpringerLink. The inclusion criteria applied are publications from 2020-2024 and observational study designs.The search identified 17 articles that met the inclusion criteria. Most studies show that sanitation conditions, including toilet cleanliness, access to drinking water, availability of clean water, wastewater management, and waste disposal systems, are associated with the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers. Environmental sanitation plays a crucial role in influencing the occurrence of diarrhea in toddlers. Environmental factors, including toilet conditions, access to clean water, wastewater management, and waste disposal systems, contribute to the risk of diarrhea in toddlers. Additionally, other factors such as handwashing with soap, exclusive breastfeeding, house flooring type, and food and beverage management also play a role in the occurrence of diarrhea. Keywords: Environmental sanitation, Diarrhea, Toddlers.
