Abstract

Noise in the work environment is a significant health risk factor, especially in affecting workers blood pressure and pulse rate. According to the WHO, noise is defined as unwanted or excessive sound that can damage human health. At PT. Bosowa Berlian Motor Kima Branch, Makassar, high noise exposure has the potential to cause health problems such as hypertension and pulse rate disorders. This study aims to describe blood pressure and pulse rate in workers exposed to noise in this work environment. The research method uses a descriptive cross-sectional approach with secondary data collected in December 2024. The results showed that 51.6% of workers were exposed to noise above 85 dB, with 51.6% of respondents having above-normal blood pressure and 32.3% experiencing tachycardia. Factors such as length of service, length of employment, and smoking history also contribute to health risks. The conclusion of this study is that noise exposure has a significant impact on workers blood pressure and pulse rate, so interventions such as noise control, the use of personal protective equipment, and health programs are needed to reduce health risks and improve workers welfare.

Beberapa faktor risiko yang terkait dengan karsinomanasofaring termasuk gaya hidup, status sosial ekonomi, kebiasaan alkohol dan merokok. Dengan menggunakan sampling totalquota yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi, penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif retrospektif. Tujuan penelitian ini mengetahui perbandingan karakteristik pasien Karsinoma Nasofaring pasien yang merokok maupun yang tidak merokok. Hasil penelitian ini didapatkan Jumlah sampel yang didapatkan yaitu 45 sampel, didapatkan pasien karsinoma nasofaring terbanyak pada pasien merokok yaitu 25 pasien (55,56%), pasien dengan histopatologi pada pasien karsinoma nasofaring yang merokok terbanyak yaitu non-kreatinizing carcinoma (WHO2) dan Undifferentiated carcinoma (WHO3) dengan 10 pasien (22,22%), dan stadium pada pasien merokok terbanyak yaitu stadium IV (T4 atau N3) dengan 15 pasien (33,33%). Kesimpulan dari penelitan ini Terdapat hubungan signifikan antara pasien yang merokok terhadap hasil biopsi histopatologi (p=0,000) dan stadium pada pasien karsinoma nasofaring (p=0,041).
