The case definition has high sensitivity. All health centers have followed the guidelines from the Ministry of Health and WHO but the cases are found only as a suspect due to laboratory examination only thrombocyte and hematocrit, can not be analyzed trends of events either graph (weekly, monthly, yearly) minimal and minimum time series pattern. During 2016 in Blora District 713 reported cases of dengue with CFR 1.26. Availability of DHF guidebook (65.38%), nurse 53.85%, 0% healthiness. Of the 26 PHC, 65.38% of the surveillance personnel have never had training with 100% having double duty. Ability to process and analyze data below 40%, accuracy and completeness of report below 60% (Ewars) and 42% (STP). The immediate response has been made by the health department but not yet at the puskesmas level because the DHF report is still awaiting information from the active surveillance of the health department at the hospital in Blora. Discussion: This study emphasizes the need for laboratory-based dengue surveillance systems especialli trained personnel.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis is a disease of international concern. Control measure have been implemented in the World and Indonesia. One of the indicators of TB prevention program in Indonesia is Case Notification Rate (CNR), through case finding to screen of suspected TB, physical examination, laboratory and diagnosis Objective: Implementation of TB case finding program in Blora Distric, Indonesia, 2017 Methods: A descriptive observational study of evaluation. Subjects were 12 TB programmers at Public Health Center, 12 laboratory workers and 1 supervisor of Blora District Health Office. Data were collected by in-depth interviews and observations on input, process, output and outcome aspects. Results: Input aspect, 75% of respondents have double job, with duration of >5 years (75%) and was followed TB training >5 years (66%). Aspects of process, planning, budget requirements, targeting above 90%. Increase internal lineage (58%). Implementation already uses active search (92%) and passive (67%). Involvement of health cadres is not optimal, people are more confident to health workers in the village. PPM has not gone well (17%) so many patients are not reported in PHC. Clinics, hospitals and private practice doctors have not yet applied DOTS strategy treatment. Monitoring and evaluation has been done by wasor >2 times/year 33% and <2 times/year 67%. The CNR output aspect of 2016 128/100.000 population is below the national target of 316/100.000 population. Outcome aspect consists of 91.1% cure rate and 3.5% death. Conclusions: Overall TB case finding in Blora has gone well. But there are still shortcomings in the input aspect, needs to improve the skills of TB programmers with training and refresher.  On process aspect is still necessary increasing PPM by involving the private sector, hospitals and polyclinics, involving the village midwife actively encompassing TB cases cross program and sector network. So it can increase the CNR TB in Blora.
