- Abstract
Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is infectious disease that can cause death. This disease is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This disease attacks the respiratory organs so that the patient will experience a cough in the long term. The suspected cases of Pulmonary TB had increased from 2018 (200 cases) to 2019 (220 cases) at The Public Health Service Center Lumpo, South Pesisir Regency. The purpose of study was to analyze the risk factors for Pulmonary TB in the work area of Lumpo Public Health Service Center. The research method was analytic with case control design. The sample in the study amounted to 72 consist of 36 cases and 36 controls. The dependent variable was the incidence of pulmonary TB. The independent variables consist of environmental factors (occupancy density) and behavior factors (the habit of throwing sputum any place and smoking habit). The research was conducted by collecting primary and secondary data. The data were analyzed with univariate and bivariate analysis. Statistical test used chi-square test with SPSS application. It showed that the occupancy density (p-value=0.004 and OR=6.476), the habit of throwing sputum any place (p-value=0.000 and OR=16.333), and Smoking habit (p-value 0.000 and OR 0.361) were significant with Pulmonary Tuberculosis at Lumpo Public Health Center, South Pesisir Regency in 2020. It can be concluded that environmental and behavioral factors were risk factors that related with Pulmonary Tuberculosis disease.
