Abstract

Tuberculosis is one of the top 10 leading causes of death in the world. In 2017 an estimated 10.4 million people suffered from TB and 1.3 million people died of the disease. TB is a disease based on the region that has a spatial dependence (correlation between geographic regions), therefore its restraint must also consider the spatial distribution patterns of the case that can be learned through spatial analysis. The purpose of this research was to analyze spatially the distribution of BTA positive pulmonary TB cases based on population density, coverage of healthy houses, altitude, and the number of poor families in Kota Kupang 2018. The type of research used in this study was quantitative descriptive with Geographic Information System (GIS) approach. The sample in this study consisted of all new cases of BTA positive pulmonary TB in 2018 amounted to 451 cases. Spatial analysis showed that the BTA positive pulmonary TB cases distributed to spread the subdistricts in Kota Kupang which was a region of low altitude (<150 masl) with the highest distribution in the areas with high population density, high coverage of the healthy house, and the high number of poor families. It calls for networking between the government and the community in the prevention of BTA positive pulmonary TB.

Indonesia is one of the countries with a high enough DBD case and often occurs KLB. Many efforts and preventive programs have been done, but the cases of DBD continue to increase annually. This research aims to explain the correlation of knowledge, customs hanging clothes, and water container with the incidence of DBD in the work area Oesapa Puskesmas Kupang City. This is a quantitative research using the cross-sectional study. The population in this study was 72 people with sampling techniques using the total sampling method. Data analysis used is by univariate analysis and bivariate analysis using the chi-Square test. The results of this research show that the factor that has a relationship with the incidence of DBD is knowledge (ρ = 0.000), the habit of hanging clothes (ρ = 0.000), and the presence of mosquito larva (ρ = 0.001). Communities with low knowledge, poor habits in hanging clothes, and low environmental sanitation can increase the occurrence of environmental DBD cases. The need to increase knowledge in society so that people know, to want, and able to independently prevent the occurrence of DBD in the environment.

The results showed that the perception of mothers under five about stunting is still limited. Mothers perception of the notion of stunting was limited to physical appearance only, such as small figure of children, slow growth, short stature, thinness, weakness, and malnutrition.The impact is prone to illness, weakness, lack of enthusiasm, laziness to move, physical disabilities and reduced children's grasping power. Direct causes of stunting in children not breastfed, not immunized, worms, malnutrition, mothers not consuming nutritious food during pregnancy, premature birth and genetic factors. Efforts to prevent and control stunting byproviding nutritious food and marungga vegetables, routine health checks, exclusive breastfeeding, posyandu, and inviting children to do activities. Informants did not state that environmental factors such asclean water and sanitation is a indirect cause of stunting in children. Prevention and control of stuntingonly focuses on specific nutrition interventions such as food intake and routine health checks at posyandu, but ignores sensitive nutrition interventions, namely clean and healthy lifestyle. Suggestion: it is necessary to do socialization about stunting and its handling through specific interventions and sensitive interventions.

Abstract

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are health problems often experienced by workers due to several reasons, namely age, gender, body mass index, length of work, workload, work attitude and temperature. Hospital laundry workers are nonmedical staff in charge of washing dirty linens. As they use physical abilities, the workers have a high risk of musculoskeletal complaints. This study aimed to determine and analyze the risk of ergonomic MSDs in laundry workers at three public hospitals. This study was an analytic survey with a cross-sectional design. The study was located at hospital Prof. Dr. W. Z. Johannes, RST Wirasakti and RSB Titus Uly Kupang, and was conducted in January - August 2021. The population in this study was all laundry staff who worked in three hospitals. The sample of 33 people was taken using total sampling technique. The results showed that there was a relationship between age (p= 0.027), years of service (p= 0.001), workload (p= 0.002), work attitude (p= 0.001) and temperature (p= 0.001) with MSDs. Gender (p= 0.183) and body mass index (p= 0.282) were found unrelated to MSDs. The Hospital Occupational Health and Safety (K3) Management needs to be improved by providing occupational health promotion, ergonomic work attitude training for laundry workers and provision of adequate laundry facilities to minimize the occurrence of MSDs.

Abstract

Laundry is a necessity for some people who have a busy schedule so they don't have more time to wash clothes. However, there are still many laundry entrepreneurs who do not pay attention to the work safety of employees so that work accidents cannot be avoided. The lack of awareness to constantly use PPE is influenced by many factors. This study aims to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitudes, age and basic skills with the use of PPE in laundry workers in Kupang City. The research method used was cross sectional with a population of 83 people and the number of samples used was 46 people with a random sampling method. The instrument of this study is a questionnaire. Data analysis using chi-square. The results showed that there was a relationship between independent variables and dependent variables using the Chi-square test, so the results obtained were that there was a relationship between the use of PPE in laundry workers in Kupang City with knowledge (p = 0.21), attitude (p = 0.000), age (0.029) and basic skills (p = 0.000). Based on the keofesien (r) test of the four variables, it has a very low correlation or relationship linkage. Where the first variable is the keofesien test value (r) of 0.019, the second variable is 0.000, the third variable is 0.013 and the fourth variable is 0.000 with the use of correlational analysis from this study is r = -1 or close to -1 so that the relationship between the two variables is strong and has the opposite relationship. It is hoped that laundry owners can provide a correct understanding of the importance of using PPE when working to avoid the risk of work accidents.

Abstract

Stunting is an impaired physical and cognitive growth posed by a chronically inadequate intake and repeated chronic infections.

Noelbaki Village contributes to the high stunting incidence, with 49 cases in children aged 6-24 months. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with stunting in children aged 6-24 months in Noelbaki Village. This study is an analytical study with a case-control design performed in 98 samples with a ratio of 1:1, with 49 children as the case group and 49 as the control group. The sampling technique used was total sampling, using chi-square test analysis. The results show that nutritional intake (OR=9,750, 95%CI 3,483-24,737; p=0,000) was the most factor attributed to the incidence of stunting, followed by complementary feeding (OR=8,538 95%CI 3,441-21,190; p=0,000) exclusive breastfeeding (OR=7,654 95%CI 3,028-19,351; p=0,000) and infectious diseases (OR=6.923 95%CI 2.852-16.804; p=0,000) while immunization status and basic sanitation were not contributing factors to stunting incidence. Health agencies are expected to be able to engage with the community in efforts to improve nutritional quality by focusing on the movement of exclusive breastfeeding and complementary feeding and the prevention of infectious diseases in children.
