Abstract

Fungal skin infections that have a fairly high prevalence in the community are tinea versicolor or Tinea Versicolor. Tinea Versicolor generally occurs in individuals with poor hygiene and sanitation conditions. School-age children have a fairly high risk of being infected with Tinea versicolor due to their high physical activity. The purpose of this study was to determine the results of Malassezia furfur identification in skin scrapings of students at State Elementary School 6 in Antiga Village, Karangasem Regency, Bali. This type of research uses a descriptive study to identify the fungus that causes tinea versicolor in students' skin scrapings using direct observation methods. The samples in this study were skin scrapings from 30 students selected using purposive sampling techniques. Laboratory examinations for Malassezia furfur identification were carried out at the Parasitology and Mycology Laboratory of STIKES Wira Medika Bali using direct observation. The results showed that out of 30 samples examined, 20 samples (67%) showed positive results for the identification of Malassezia furfur in their skin-scraping specimens and 10 samples (33%) showed negative results. Reviewed based on the frequency distribution of Malassezia furfur identification results based on gender, it is known that out of 20 positive results, 2 were female (10%) and 18 were male (90%). Based on the results of this study, it was concluded that in the sample population studied, there was a relatively high prevalence of Tinea versicolor, which was around two-thirds of the total samples examined

Abstract

Infeksi kecacingan adalah salah satu penyakit yang sering dijumpai dalam masyarakat dan diakibatkan oleh parasit nematoda usus atau parasit golongan Soil Transmitted Helminths (STH). Salah satu pekerjaan yang berisiko terinfeksi parasit yaitu petugas pengangkut dan pengelola sampah, sebab mereka akan bersentuhan langsung dengan sampah atau kotoran tanpa menggunakan alat pelindung diri. Tujuan dari penelitian ini, yaitu untuk mengetahui hasil identifikasi telur cacing Soil Transmitted Helminths (STH) pada kuku petugas pengangkut dan pengelola sampah di TPS 3R Padangsambian Kota Denpasar, Bali. Sampel yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu sampel kuku yang diambil dari petugas pengangkut dan pengelola sampah di TPS 3R Padangsambian Kota Denpasar Bali yang berjumlah 38 sampel. Pemeriksaan telur cacing ini dilakukan dengan metode sedimentasi menggunakan larutan NaCl 0,9%. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Laboratorium Parasitologi STIKES Wira Medika Bali. Data hasil penelitian di analisa dengan cara deskriptif. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dari sampel kuku, petugas pengangkut dan pengelola sampah di TPS 3R Padangsambian Kota Denpasar Bali diperoleh 2 sampel (5,2%) ditemukan telur cacing Soil Transmitted Helminths (STH) spesies Ascaris lumbricoides pada kedua sampel dan 36 sampel (94,8%) lainnya negatif atau tidak ditemukan telur cacing. Saran kepada para petugas pengangkut dan pengelola sampah untuk selalu menggunakan Alat Pelindung Diri secara lengkap dan tepat saat bekerja dan selalu menjaga kebersihan diri serta kebersihan lingkungan.
