Abstract

Worm infection is a problem that can be prevented and treated through simple measures such as good sanitation practices, proper hygiene, and effective deworming treatment. This intervention is aimed at students attending Anak Tangguh School, which comprises children aged 7 to 11 years. Participants in the socialization program completed a questionnaire to assess their knowledge and habits regarding worm infections. Additionally, their height and weight were measured using a scale and stature meter. The analysis of 26 children's weight and height revealed that 22 were overweight and 10 did not meet the ideal height according to WHO standards. Following the socialization program, participants acknowledged their understanding of worm infection and its consequences, expressing their commitment to adopting a clean and healthy lifestyle.

Abstract

Enterobiasis, also known as pinworm infection, is a parasitic infestation that predominantly affects children and is caused by the Enterobius vermicularis parasite. Worm infections can significantly impact an individual's productivity and immune system. This study aims to document the occurrence of enterobiasis among children aged 6 to 9 years in the Kebon Kongok landfill area of West Lombok Regency. Data collection involved the administration of the cellophane tape method and a questionnaire filled by the parents or guardians of the participating children. Among the 188 participants, 36 children (19.15%) were identified as having enterobiasis. Notably, boys exhibited a higher prevalence than girls, and the most common age for enterobiasis was 7 years. Statistical analysis revealed that the child's age, their habit of playing in the dirt, and the parents' or guardians' age are pivotal factors influencing the incidence of enterobiasis in the Kebon Kongok landfill area of West Lombok Regency.
