Faktor Risiko Penyakit Ginjal Kronik : Studi Kasus Kontrol Di Empat Rumah Sakit Di Jakarta Tahun 2014

A case control study was conducted in four government hospitals in Jakarta according to KidneyDisease Improving Global Outcome (KDIGO) 2012 criteria, in the last 10 years. Control subjectswere diagnosed as not CKD based on estimating glomerulus filtration rate (e-GFR) of ≥60ml /minute/1.73m2 and normal urinalysis test. Data were collected by interviewing with subjects usingstructured questionnaires. Laboratory test results were extracted from the medical records orretested laboratory results of serum creatinine, HbA1c, and urinalysis at screening and enrollmenttime. A total of 429 eligible subjects in each group were analysed by logistic regression. Age, familyhistory of CKD, plain water consumption ≤2000ml/day, carbonated drink consumption, energy drinkconsumption, history of kidney diseases, kidney stone, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus increasedrisk of CKD with adjusted odds ratio range from 1.8 to 25.8. Consumption of coffee, tea, chocolate,alcohol drinks, non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), traditional herbal for musculoskeletaldisorder or obesity, smoking, and less quality of drinking water were not significantly associatedwith CKD. It concluded that risk factors of CKD were everyday consumption of carbonated drinkand energy drink

Praktek Pencegahan Penyakit Menular dan Faktor yang Berperan pada Pekerja Laboratorium Puskesmas di Tiga Provinsi di Indonesia, Tahun 2012

Laboratorium merupakan salah satu lokasi kerja di pelayanan kesehatan yang memberikan risiko lebih tinggi untuk terpapar kuman TB lebih tinggi dibandingkan ruang kerja lainnya. Kewaspadaan dan perilaku pencegahan penyakit menular terutama TB pada pekerja laboratorium sangat perlu diperhatikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi praktek pencegahan penyakit menular dan faktor yang berperan pada pekerja laboratorium di tiga provinsi di Indonesia. Penelitian dilakukan secara potong lintang, pada 60 pekerja laboratorium yang bertugas di 50 Puskesmas (Puskesmas rujukan mikroskopis/PRM dan Puskesmas pelaksana mandiri/PPM) di Provinsi Banten, Provinsi Gorontalo, dan Provinsi Kalimantan Selatan. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara dengan menggunakan kuesioner terstruktur dan observasi, pada tahun 2012. Praktek pencegahan penyakit menular ditentukan berdasarkan 14 pertanyaan. Hanya 40% dari 60 pekerja laboratorium yang baik dalam praktek pencegahan penyakit menular saat bekerja di laboratorium. Pekerja dari Puskesmas di Provinsi Banten berpeluang 4,2 kali lebih banyak untuk baik dalam praktek pencegahan penyakit menular dibandingkan dengan pekerjadari Puskesmas di Provinsi Kalimantan Selatan (p=0,03 OR 4,21; 95%CI 1,14-15,47). Pekerja dari Puskesmas di Provinsi Gorontalo tidak berbeda dengan pekerja dari Puskesmas di Provinsi Kalimantan Selatan dalam praktek pencegahan penyakit menular (p=0,08 OR 5,51; 95%CI 0,83-36,73). Faktor lama kerja dan jenis Puskesmas merupakan faktor perancu terhadap hubungan antara lokasi provinsi pekerja laboratorium dengan praktek pencegahan penyakit menular (p>0,05). Lokasi provinsi dimana Puskesmas berada merupakan faktor yang berhubungan secara signifikan terhadap praktek pencegahan penyakit menular.Kata Kunci : pekerja laboratorium, Puskesmas, pencegahan penyakit menular AbstractLaboratory is one of the health care locations with higher risk for tuberculose infection (TB) than other workplaces.
