Abstract

Personal hygiene during menstruation is an action to maintain health and hygiene in female genital areas during menstruation. Based on data compiled from the Central Statistics Agency and the National Development Planning Agency in 2010, 63 million female adolescents in Indonesia paid less attention to the hygiene of their reproductive organs when menstruating. Furthermore, infectious disease incidence that occurred in adolescents’ reproductive tract (10-18 years) was about 42%. This research purposed to describe personal hygiene behavior during menstruation in female students of class VIII SMPN 13 Kupang. The research was a descriptive study with a quantitative approach. The number of samples was 63 female students of class VIII SMPN 13 Kupang taken by the simple random sampling technique. The results showed that the majority of respondents had a good level of knowledge (85,71%) and a positive attitude (80,95%) towards personal hygiene behavior during menstruation. However, most respondents had poor personal hygiene during menstruation (53,96%). Schools need to provide more references on adolescent reproductive health, especially personal hygiene during menstruation, for school teenagers. Keywords: menstruation; personal hygiene; behavior

Abstract

Tuberculosis is a directly infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium Tuberculosis. During the last three years, most patients with pulmonary tuberculosis were at the Kambaniru Health Center. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between economic status and the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis, to determine the level of knowledge about the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis, and to determine the relationship between the physical condition of the house and the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis. This research is an analytic observational study with a case-control research design. The sample in this study was 110 people, consisting of 55 cases and 55 controls. The data obtained were analyzed using the Chi-square test. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between economic status (0.001), level of knowledge (0.022), type of floor (0.001), temperature (0.001), and the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis. There is no relationship between occupancy density (0.095), ventilation (0.096), humidity (0.233), and the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis. Therefore, there is a need for cooperation between the government, public health center officers, and the community so that efforts can be made to reduce tuberculosis cases at the Kambaniru Health Center.
