Dampak Pengelolaan Tinja Terpadu Terhadap Infeksi Ascaris Lumbricoides Di Daerah Kota (I)

Abstract

A study on the health impact of integrated environmental sanitary management was done in the village of Pisangan Baru, East Jakarta. As an indicator of health status, Ascaris lumbricoides infection in school children was used. The result of the study before the intervention showed that the prevalence of A. lumbircoides infec­tion in school children who lived in RW 06 Pisangan Baru was 46.3% and 45.7% who lived in RW 013. Ex­amination of sewage water in ditches showed 42% positive with A. lumbircoides eggs in RW 06 and 30% in RW 013. The result of soil examination in RW06 was 18% positive while in RW 013 was 20% positive with tion of sewage water in ditches showed 42% positive with A. lumbricoides eggs in RW 06 and 30% in RW 013. The result of soil examination in RW06 was 18% positive while in RW 013 was 20% positive with A. lumbricoides eggs. The result of a post - intervention study showed a prevalence of 33.7% in school children from RW 06 and 25.8% from RW 013, whereas the sewage water examination in ditches around RW 06 was 14% positive with A. lumbricoides eggs and 24% in RW 013. The soil ecamination in RW 06 revealed 6% positive while in RW 013 was 16% positive with A. lumbricoides eggs. The result of the study showed that the impact of intervention was clearly evident on the waste water contamination but not on the reinfection of school children with A. lumbricoides as well as the degree of soil contamination
