Introduction: Diarrhea is a disease associated with poor people and mostly suffered by toddlers. The poor environmental quality triggers the growth of pathogenic microorganisms. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between basic sanitation with diarrhea in toddlers. Methods: The study was observational analytical study with cross-sectional design. The study was conducted in Leran Village, Bojonegoro, East Java, Indonesia. The sample was toddlers mother, amounting 63 respondents choosing by simple random sampling technique. Results and Discussion: The results of data analysis showed that diarrhea in toddlers was related to the type of floor (p = 0.026, PR = 2.21), latrine condition (p = 0.000, PR = 3.28), waste management (p = 0.000, PR = 27.5), clean water source (p = 0.000, PR =5.32). Conclusion: Several ways to reduce the prevalence of diarrhea including cleaning the floor regularly, providing a mat on the floor, provide a closed and waterproof trash, boiled water before drinking, and washing hands with soap after contacting with the ground.
Introduction: Workers in the maintenance and repair division's shipping division work in outdoor physical environments, which get hot temperatures from the environment. They cause excessive sweating while working and can cause dehydration if not drinking enough water. Methods: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between drinking habits and work climate perception with dehydration status in shipping companies' workers. The research method was analytic observational, with a cross-sectional design in 2019 in one of the shipping companies with a sample size of 49 workers who were selected using simple random sampling from 55 worker populations. The independent variables included respondent characteristics, drinking water consumption habits, and work climate perceptions, while the dependent variable was dehydration status. Dehydration status among workers was measured base on the specific gravity of urine measured in the laboratory, and the working climate was measured using a heat stress monitor. Result: The results showed that 85.71% of workers had minimum dehydration status, and 14.29% had significant dehydration. Then, there was a meaningful relationship between drinking water habits and dehydration status (r = -0.320 and p = 0.025). There was also a relationship between workers' work climate perceptions and dehydration status (r = -0.283 and p = 0.049). Conclusion: The relationship showed a weak negative meaning that the less habit of drinking water among workers, the higher the dehydration status of the workers. The more disturbed they perceive the working climate; the less dehydrated status of workers will be. So it can be ignored that there were drinking habits and the work climate perceptions with dehydrated status in shipping companies' workers. Keywords: dehydration status, drinking habits, work climate perceptions.
Salah satu gangguan musculoskeletal yang dapat terjadi pada pergelangan tangan adalah Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). Pekerja wanita berisiko lebih tinggi terhadap kejadian CTS dibandingkan pria. Gerakan pekerjaan yang dilakukan secara repetitif dan berkepanjangan dapat memperbesar risiko terjadinya keluhan CTS. Pekerja wanita bata pres di Dusun Kaligoro masih melakukan aktivitas pencetakan bata pres secara manual dan berulang sehingga pekerja memiliki risiko mengalami keluhan CTS. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan kuat dan arah hubungan antara masa kerja dan gerakan repetitif dengan keluhan CTS pada pekerja wanita bagian produksi bata pres di Dsn. Kaligoro, Ds. Kaligoro, Kec. Kutorejo, Kab. Mojokerto, Jawa Timur. Jenis penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional dengan rancang bangun crossectional. Jumlah sampel dalam penelitian ini diambil dengan teknik simpel random sampling berjumlah 42 pekerja dari total populasi 47 pekerja. Hasil analisis menunjukkan terdapat hubungan cukup kuat dengan arah positif antara masa kerja (r=0,367) dan gerakan repetitif (r=0,493) dengan keluhan CTS. Semakin lama bekerja dan semakin banyak frekuensi gerakan repetitif yang dilakukan maka risiko pekerja mengalami keluhan CTS semakin besar.
Diarrhea in children under five based on diagnosis and symptom occurred in 18.5% of children in 2018 and 12.3% of children in 2013, indicating an increase. According to the health profile of Bojonegoro Regency of 2018, out of 33,667 diarrhea cases reported, 31,010 or 92.11% of them were treated. This study aims to analyze the relationship between handwashing practice, use of latrine and SPAL (sewerage) with diarrhea incidents in Bojonegoro Incidents. This study used observational study design with cross-sectional approach. Samples in this study were 63 toddlers spread across 4 villages taken using proportional random sampling technique. The collection of primary data was performed by interviewing and observing mothers that had toddlers. Chi square test method was used to determine the relationship between variables examined, where diarrhea occurred in children under five if p < α (α margin of error = 0.05). The results of the study conducted from December 27, 2019 to January 31, 2020 showed that there was a significant relationship between handwashing habit and diarrhea incidents in toddlers, with p=0.000. There was no significant relationship between latrine condition and diarrhea in toddlers, with p=0.808. Furthermore, there was no significant relationship between SPAL condition and diarrhea incidents in toddlers, with p=0.085. There was a significant relationship between handwashing habits in mothers that had children under two with diarrhea incidents.
