Abstract

Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) still become health problem for developing countries, especially in Indonesia. Children under five are the group with the highest incidence of ARI in Indonesia. DKI Jakarta Province is one of the provinces that have higher period prevalence of ARI than the national period prevalence. Rawa Terate village is an area where the oldest industrial area in Jakarta called Pulogadung Industrial Estate is located. Symptoms of ARI can occur due to air pollution both inside and outside the home. This study aims to determine the relationship between PM10 concentration and house environmental factors with symptoms of ARI on children under five in Rawa Terate Health Center. The design is cross sectional with quantitative approach and conducted from July to September 2017. The number of sample in this research is 115 children under five. The results showed that the proportion of ARI symptoms in children under five was 79,1%. PM10 concentration was significant relationship with ARI symptoms in children under five relatively (p<0,05). PM10 is a respirable particle so it can trigger the occurrence of ARI. While for the house environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, lighting, ventilation, kitchen location, kitchen smoke hole, occupancy density and smoking family members did not show a significant relationship with ARI symptoms in children under five (p>0.05). Some of variables in this research did not comply the requirements such as PM10, ventilation, temperature, lighting, occupancy density and smoking family members. It is suggested to the community to improve the quality of air within the house by controlling the exchange of air inside the house by opening and closing the window at the right time, and maximizing natural lighting into the house.
