Abstract

Work environment factors are one of the factors that cause success in carrying out work but can also cause failure in carrying out a job, because the work environment can affect the physical and mental conditions of workers. One of the factors of the work environment is exposure to noise. Exposure to noise can cause health problems such as increased blood pressure. This study used an analytic observational study with a cross sectional approach. The number of samples is 102 respondents obtained by means of simple random sampling. Measuring noise intensity using a sound level meter and blood pressure using a blood pressure meter. Individual characteristics are assessed using a questionnaire. The results showed that there was an effect of exposure to noise intensity on systolic and diastolic blood pressure with p-values of 0.001 and 0.048 and r-values of 0.329 and 0.192 respectively. There is a strong and unidirectional relationship between noise exposure and blood pressure. This increase in blood pressure can be controlled with hearing conservation such as regular hearing tests. Keywords : Noise intensity, blood pressure

Abstract

Diarrhea in Indonesia is still a problem with high morbidity and mortality rates. Factors that influence the prevalence of this disease are that some people in Indonesia do not have access to healthy drinking water and proper sanitation. The quality of drinking water that does not meet bacteriological requirements can be a cause of diarrheal disease. So it needs to be anticipated through concrete steps by utilizing natural resources that contain anti-microbial compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, brazilin and brazilein which function as anti-microbials. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of Secang Wood (Caesalpinia Sappan L.) in reducing bacteria Coliform in Refillable Drinking Water with experimental research methods quasi laboratory scale by using 1 gram of secang wood in 1 liter of refillable drinking water with a variation of contact time 12 hours, 24 hours, and 36 hours.The results of the study of the addition of 1 gram of secang wood in 1 liter of refillable drinking water with a contact time of 12 hours the percentage of decrease is 100%, 24 hours the percentage of decrease is 100% and 36 hours the percentage of decrease is 100%. Based on the results obtained from the three observations, the results of the quality of pH, color, and turbidity examination were best at a contact time of 12 hours compared to the contact time at 24 hours and 36 hours. The addition of secang wood with a contact time of 12 hours, 24 hours and 36 hours is effective in reducing bacteriaColiform bacteria in accordance with the requirements of Permenkes RI No. 2 Year 2023. For this reason, it is recommended for the community to use secang wood with a contact time of 12 hours in drinking water as an effort to prevent diarrheal disease.  Keywords :Coliform; secang wood(Caesalpinia Sappan L.);  refillable drinking water
