Abstract

Global TB Report 2022 recorded more than 700 thousand TB cases. This figure is the highest since TB became a National Priority Program. In Indonesia, the highest number of TB cases is found in the productive age group, especially those aged 45 to 54 years. This study aims to determine the profile of pulmonary tuberculosis treatment at the Kaluku Bodoa Health Center. The research design used is a non-experimental study with data collection conducted retrospectively using medical records, including individual characteristics (age, gender, education, occupation), patient type, type of Directly Observed Treatment (DOT) supervisor, and treatment category.

In terms of individual characteristics, there were 44 patients aged 46-55 years, 123 male patients, the majority of whom had a primary education level (97 patients), and most of the patients were working (174 patients). Based on patient type, there were more new patients, totaling 177. All patients had a family DOT supervisor, totaling 201 patients. The treatment category used is category 1 for 197 patients.
