Abstract

Household waste is waste that comes from daily activities in the household. Garbage can cause environmental damage, a source of disease, and disrupt public health. Many rersidents of Jorong Ombilin live on the outskirts of Lake Singkarak and there are many community actions that dispose of household waste around the lake. This study aims to determine the factors that influence people's behavior in disposing of household waste in Lake Singkarak Jorong Ombilin in 2022. This research is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design, which was conducted from February - September 2022 with a total sample of 90 respondents in Jorong Ombilin. Sampling using systematic random sampling technique. Data were processed using SPSS and analyzed using the chi square statistical test. The results showed that 67.8% of respondents took action to dispose of household waste in the lake, 58.9% had low level of education, 68.9% had bad knowledge, 56.7% had inadequate facilities, and 70.0% assume had inappropriate supervision. There is a correlation of variables of education (p=0.011), knowledge (p=0.000), availability of facilities (p=0.000), supervision (p=0.018) with community actions. Factors that have a significant relationship with community actions in disposing of household waste in Lake Singkarak Ombilin are the level of education, knowledge, availability of facilities, and supervision. It is recommended that the local government improve supervision of community actions and providing supporting facilities, create written regulation, and impose penalty of community actions in disposing of household waste.

Abstract

 Indonesia is being hit by an outbreak of the Covid-19 virus which attacks therespiratory tract and the process of transmission can be through activities without paying attention to clean and healthy lifestyle (PHBS), for example not wearing a mask, not washing your hands, not keeping your distance because the transmission can be through fluids coming from the nose and mouth. Meanwhile, health workers and village government are elements that can support achieving optimal PHBS in the community, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. Thus, this study aims to identify the relationship between the roles of health workers and village government towards changes in community PHBS during the COVID-19 pandemic.This type of research is quantitative research with an internal statistical research design through a cross sectional approach. A sample of 75 respondents obtained through purposive sampling technique. The Independent Variable is the role of health workers and the village government, while the Dependent Variable is the change in community PHBS. The data analysis used is the Chi Square test.The results showed that there was a relationship between the role of health workers and changes in community PHBS during the Covid-19 pandemic with a p value (0.022) <(0.050). Likewise, the role of the village government also has a relationship with changes in community PHBS during the Covid-19 pandemic with a p value (0.039) < (0.050).The positive role of health workers and village government has been shown to have a relationship with changes in community PHBS during the Covid-19 pandemic, so it is recommended for health workers to maintain the quality of service to the community, especially in providing health education about PHBS in household settings. The village government is advised to continue to approach the community and work with health workers in an effort to provide information about the importance of implementing PHBS, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract

 Mechanical rat control usually uses traps, and bait is an important factor in successful rat catching. The aim of this study was to describe the diversity of species and sex of rats, as well as to measure the differences in the effectiveness of using salted fish, roastedcoconut and fried foods on the number of rats caught at Kalimas Terminal, Tanjung Perak Port, Surabaya.This research is a quasi-experimental research with a Posttest Only Design research design and was conducted at Kalimas Terminal, Tanjung Perak Port, Surabaya. The variables in this study were the type of bait used, namely salted fish, grilled and fried coconut and the number of rats caught. The tools used were 150 single live traps, each of which 50 traps were baited with salted fish, roasted coconut and fried foods. The ratscaught were identified for their type, sex and number. Species and sex were analyzed using a frequency distribution table, then an ANOVA test with α of 5% was used to analyze differences in the number of rats based on the type of bait installed.The rat species caught were Rattus norvegicus with 57 individuals (15 males and 42 females) and Rattus tanezumi 17 individuals (6 males and 11 females). The number of rats that entered the trap using salted fish bait was 41 tails, 18 rats used roasted coconut bait, and 15 rats used fried bait. There is a difference in the use of salted fish, roasted coconut and fried food on the number of rats caught at the Kalimas Port of Tanjung Perak, Surabaya(p-value = 0.001).Salted fish is the most effective bait compared to roasted and fried coconut. Its use can be replaced with fried bait periodically if the trap success drops drastically.

Abstract

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) adalah bakteri yang menyebabkan penyakit menular tuberkulosis (TB) secara langsung. Menurut Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO), sekitar 10,6 juta orang di seluruh dunia terinfeksi bakteri tuberkulosis pada tahun 2021. Dalam periode 2016 hingga 2020, tiga negara dengan tingkat tuberkulosis, MDR-TB, dan tuberkulosis tertinggi/ HIV salah satunya adalah negara Indonesia. Jawa Tengah adalah salah satu wilayah Indonesia tertinggi dengan 40.528 kasus TB dan CNR hingga 110 per 100.000 penduduk. Kepatuhan pasien dalam minum obat sangat berpengaruh terhadap hasil pengobatan TB. Pasien yang tidak minum obat secara konsisten berisiko drop out dan meningkatkan resistensi obat (MDR). Penelitian bertujuan untuk melihat bagaimana sikap, perilaku, dan pengetahuan seseorang berhubungan dengan kepatuhan pengobatan pasien TB. Studi yang menerapkan metodologi potong lintang (cross-sectional) kepada 81 responden pasien TB di Puskesmas Kedungmundu dan Rowosari Kota Semarang ini bersifat kuantitatif dengan rumus perhitungan sampel slovin dari populasi sebanyak 418 orang. Data yang terkumpul kemudian diuji secara statistik menggunakan uji chi-square untuk menguji ada tidaknya hubungan antar variabel. Temuan mengungkapkan adanya hubungan yang kuat antara kepatuhan pengobatan (0,05) di Kota Semarang dan pengetahuan pasien (p=0,006), sikap (p=0,001), dan perilaku (p=0,000). Menurut temuan penelitian yang dilakukan, ada hubungan yang kuat antara kepatuhan pengobatan pasien dengan pengetahuan, sikap, dan perilaku pasien. Pasien yang secara konsisten minum obat anti TB dianggap penting dalam keefektifan program pengobatan. Penelitian selanjutnya agar dapat meningkatkan jumlah sampel dan memperlauas cakupan daerah sasaran agar dapat mendeteksi dan memberikan gambaran secara lebih luas terhadap variable yang diteliti.

Abstract

A hospital for type B in Sidoarjo, in the section of infectious waste management, has already implemented the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). However, the use of complete PPE is still lacking. As a result, there was a work accident in 2010 where a worker suffered from a skin infection caused by infectious waste. The aim of this study is to describe the knowledge, attitudes, actions on the use of PPE, and the facilities and infrastructure of PPE among infectious waste management workers at a type B hospital in Sidoarjo in 2023. This research is a descriptive observational study, with a sample population of 10 infectious waste management workers using a total sampling technique. The variables studied are the knowledge, attitudes, actions on the use of PPE, and the facilities and infrastructure of PPE among infectious waste management workers. Data analysis was performed univariately. The results showed that out of 10 people, 8 people (80%) had good knowledge and 2 people (20%) had sufficient knowledge. 7 people (70%) had good attitudes and 3 people (30%) had sufficient attitudes. 4 people (40%) had good actions and 6 people (60%) had sufficient actions. Additionally, 3 people (30%) had good PPE facilities and infrastructure and 7 people (70%) had sufficient PPE facilities and infrastructure. The conclusion obtained from this study is that the knowledge and attitudes of the workers are categorized as good, while the actions of the workers and the PPE facilities and infrastructure are categorized as sufficient. The suggestion is to pay more attention to the availability, completeness, and comfort of the PPE facilities and infrastructure needed by infectious waste management workers, and to conduct research on the use of PPE.

Abstract

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are known vectors for Dengue Fever (DF). This disease is caused by the Dengue virus, necessitating control measures that do not harm public health. One such measure is the use of ginger powder (Zingiber officinale) as a larvicide against Aedes aegypti larvae, the vector of DF. This experimental study employed a Completely Randomized Design with statistical analysis using the F-test. Four treatment concentrations and one control were tested: 5 grams, 10 grams, 15 grams, and 20 grams, with three repetitions for each treatment, observed over a 4-hour period. The study aimed to determine the effect of ginger powder (Zingiber officinale) as a larvicide on Aedes aegypti larvae. The average larval mortality at a concentration of 5 grams was 4.3 larvae, 7.6 larvae at 10 grams, and 10 larvae at both 15 grams and 20 grams. The F-test results showed that at the 1% level, Fht > Ftb. Duncan's Multiple Range Test indicated that the effective concentration was 15 grams, at which all Aedes aegypti larvae died within 4 hours. The utilization of ginger powder (Zingiber officinale) as a larvicide, with varying amounts of powder, resulted in different larval mortality rates. The higher the concentration of ginger powder (Zingiber officinale), the higher the larval mortality rate of Aedes aegypti.

Abstract

Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) cases became the number one disease in Gowa Regency in 2020, with a total of 17,394 cases and a percentage of 8.52% of the top ten diseases. Several factors, including unhealthy home environment factors, can cause ARI. Data on healthy homes in the Gentungan Health Centre area is 3,328 out of 6,163 houses examined from 7,704 houses. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the physical quality of the house and the incidence of ARI in the Gentungan Health Centre working area, Gowa Regency. This type of research is analytical and observational with a case-control approach. There were 134 samples, 67 case samples, and 67 control samples. Samples in this study used systematic random sampling. The results showed there was a significant relationship between temperature (p=0.000), humidity (p=0.003), and ventilation (p=0.005) with the incidence of ARI in toddlers, and there was no significant relationship between lighting (p = 0.791) and the incidence of ARI disease in toddlers. It is expected that the Gentungan Health Centre can counsel the community about the importance of maintaining the physical quality of the house and the dangers of ARI. Then, the community is expected to control the risk factors for ARI by improving the physical quality of the house and for further researchers to conduct research related to the relationship between the physical quality of the house and ARI disease the incidence of ARI in toddlers.

Abstract

North Jakarta City is a Coastal Area in the Province of DKI Jakarta. Data from 2017-2021 shows that diarrhea cases in toddlers in North Jakarta City have fluctuated over a 5-year period, with more than 15,000 cases each year. Drinking water facilities that meet health requirements only reach 37.01%. This study aims to analyze the risk factors for the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers in North Jakarta City. This study uses a cross-sectional study design with a sample size of 112 samples taken using cluster sampling technique. The variables examined in the study are the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers, total bacteriological quality of E.coli in water, quality of water storage places, household drinking water treatment, food hygiene sanitation conditions, and handwashing behavior of mothers/caregivers. Data were processed and analyzed descriptively as well as hypothesis testing using chi-square test and multiple logistic regression analysis using the backward: Likelihood Ratio (LR) method. The results showed that the bacteriological quality of total E.coli in water that did not meet the requirements, household drinking water treatment, and handwashing behavior with soap of mothers/caregivers are risk factors for the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers. Therefore, increasing the knowledge and skills of mothers/caregivers and monitoring the quality of household drinking water are needed to prevent and address diarrhea in toddlers.
