Abstract

Needlestick incidents are caused by hypodermic syringes, blood draw needles, and connecting needles from intravenous delivery systems which can accidentally puncture the skin, causing injury. WHO states that NSI include to one of the top serious occupational hazards among health workers, including nurses, with >2 million incidents among 35 million health workers. In Indonesia, there was a cohort study which resulted in the finding of 286 cases of NSI with the most frequent occurrence in nurses (42.7%) with an incidence rate of 15.2 out of 1,000 people per year. The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitudes, work fatigue of NSI among nurses at Hospital X. This research uses a quantitative cross sectional design. The population was 275 nurses with 80 sample size. This research instrument used a questionnaire. The Fisher Exact test show the result  of the research which there is a significant relationship between knowledge and attitudes towards the incidence NSI in nurses (p-value 0.003 and 0.013), while the work fatigue variable does not have a significant relationship with the incidence of NSI (p-value 1.000). It is hoped that the K3 Program can be implemented as an effort to prevent NSI in nurses.

Abstract

Tuberculosis in young children is influenced by environmental conditions and household hygiene practices, as this age group has an underdeveloped immune system. This study aims to examine the association between housing conditions—such as lighting, ventilation, and housing density—and hygiene practices and healthy lifestyles with the incidence of tuberculosis in toddlers. A case-control study was conducted involving 42 participants (21 cases and 21 controls) in the service area of the Martapura 2 Community Health Center. Data were collected through home observations, interviews with parents, and direct measurements, and analyzed using chi-square or Fisher’s exact tests and logistic regression. The results showed that poor hygiene and healthy lifestyle practices (p = 0.026; OR = 5.667) and inadequate lighting (p = 0.045; OR = 5.455) were significantly associated with tuberculosis incidence among toddlers. Multivariate analysis identified hygiene and healthy living practices as the most dominant factor (p = 0.031; Exp(B) = 4.978), while lighting showed a near-significant association (p = 0.055; Exp(B) = 4.692). Housing density and ventilation were not significantly associated with tuberculosis incidence. These findings highlight the importance of improving household hygiene practices and ensuring adequate lighting as key strategies to reduce the risk of tuberculosis in toddlers.
