Abstract

Hottest temperatures make body adapting by excreting excessive sweating. CV Alumunium Mandiri Palembang manufacture in making fan and pot that is fire furnace causing hottest temperatures. When the body loses fluid without being accompanied by the consumption of replacement fluids for a long time, it will cause the urine to be concentrated (supersaturation) which will then form crystals in the urine. This study aims to analyze the influence of heat on the production section of the work environment towards the occurrence of urine crystallization in CV Alumunium Mandiri Palembang. Methods: This research used a proportional simple random sampling study design. The sample was workers CV Alumunium Mandiri Palembang and there were 35 respondents. The data analysis that was done was bivariate and univariate data. Bivariate analysis used Chi-Square Test. Result: The results showed that variabel The influence of heat (P- value=0,013; 95% CI= 1,140-60,625), age (P-value =0,091; 95% CI= 0,916-11,146), working period (P-value =0,039; 95% CI= 1,055-19,192), consumption of drinking water (P-value =0,018; 95% CI= 1,016-54,095). Prevalence of urine crystallization in the amount of 22.9% or 8 toward workers. Conclusion: Therefore it could be concluded that urine crystallization was not related to age but was influenced by the temperature of heat in the work environment, working period and consumption of drinking water.
