Abstract

Background: Pneumonia among toddlers is still considered a serious health problem in Indonesia. It can be seen from the high-level coverage of pneumonia cases spread among toddlers. The continued sustainability of life being the key to healthcare development, access to healthcare services for this early-age group is very important. Purpose: This research aims to find out the coverage correlation between healthcare services on the occurrence of pneumonia among toddlers in the city of Surabaya. Methods: The researchers utilize an ecological study design for all districts in the city of Surabaya within the year 2019,2020, and 2021 with the district as the unit of the analysis. The data was analyzed by using Pearson’s and Spearman’s correlation. QGIS application is also used to map and visualize the extent of pneumonia issues and toddler healthcare coverage. Results: The results of the Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis show that toddler healthcare coverage did not correlate with the occurrence of toddler pneumonia in the city of Surabaya. However, several districts in Surabaya City exhibit disparities between toddler healthcare coverage and toddler pneumonia occurrence rates. Conclusion: In the years 2019-2021, the cases of toddler pneumonia fluctuated, whereas in 2020 the number of cases decreased compared to 2019 and then increased again in 2021. The same trend also occurred in toddler healthcare services coverage.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The countries with the third highest TB cases worldwide are India, China, and Indonesia. A decrease in stamina will occur in a person suffering from tuberculosis. Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the relationship between nutritional status and suspected new TB cases in junior high school students in the working area of Puskesmas Keputih Surabaya. Methods: This study was conducted with a cross-sectional study design in the working area of Puskesmas Keputih in 2023. Secondary data was obtained from Keputih Health Centre in 2023. The research sample used a total sampling population. The association between nutritional status and suspected new TB cases in junior high school students was tested using the chi-square method. Results: A chi-square test was conducted on high school students and found no significant association between nutritional status (underweight and average weight) and TB screening or suspected new TB cases (PR = 0.68, p-value = 0.16). In addition, it was also found that there was no significant association between nutritional status (overweight and average weight) and TB screening or suspected new TB cases (PR = 1.01, p-value = 1.00). Conclusion: There was no significant association between nutritional status and the incidence of new suspected tuberculosis in junior high school students. This indicates that other risk factors also play an essential role in influencing a person's immune system.
