Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis is a serious disease that requires special attention from the community and the Government of Indonesia, especially the Maluku Province. One commonly used analytical method in the health field is survival analysis. Survival analysis is a statistical method related to observing the period until the occurrence of an event or events. This study aims to model and identify factors that affect the recovery rate of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Ambon City using Cox Proportional Hazard regression. The results of the Hazard Ratio interpretation show that the variables that have a significant influence are chest pain and night sweats. Specifically, patients experiencing chest pain exhibit a recovery rate 0.487264 times faster than those devoid of such symptoms. Similarly, patients experiencing night sweats demonstrate a recovery rate of 0.619839 times faster than their counterparts not experiencing this symptom. This study highlights the imperative of recognizing and addressing symptoms like chest pain and night sweats in managing pulmonary tuberculosis in Ambon City.
