<p>In Indonesia, soil transmitted helminths (STH) infection is still a public health problem particularly in the child of elementary school age. The high of that infection was also supported by low environmental sanitation and poor personal hygiene. STH infection is one of 10 great of frequent diseases in Palue Island and in this region still able can be found an adult worm in feces even from regurgitate. This was observational analytic study by cross sectional design. The location of the study was Palue Island, Sikka Regency, East Nusa Tenggara. The repondents of the study was 100 students of eight elementary school. Diagnosis of STH infection was establised based on worm eggs examination in feces used floatation method. Questionnaire, and check list were the instruments for collecting data in this study. There were significant relationship between house’s environmental sanitation (p=0.043), school’s environmental sanitation (p= 0.000), personal hygiene (p = 0.032) with STH infection among the students of elementary school in Palue Island, Sikka Regency, East Nusa Tenggara. Multivariate analysis obtained that personal hygiene was the most influence variable to the STH infection in this region.</p>

BACKGROUND: Helminthiasis is a parasitic disease in human that causes a disturbance in food absorption and lead to malnutrition. The disease slowly impacts on the intelligence. The incidence of helminthiasis in Indonesia remains high, ranging from 2.5% to 62%. A preliminary study found that the proportion of helminthiasis in children is 31.25%. AIM: The aim of the study to analyse the relationship between age, school sanitation and personal hygiene with helminthiasis elementary school children in Juhar Karo Regency in 2019. METHODS: This was an observational study with a cross-sectional design. Subjects were children in grades IV, V and VI with and without helminthiasis. A total of 194 children selected by proportional random sampling were enrolled. Data were collected by interview, observation, and stool examination with the Kato-Katz method. RESULTS: The proportion of helminthiasis in boys was 51.0%, the proportion of poor sanitation in school was 36.6%, and the proportion of poor personal hygiene was 67.5%. CONCLUSIONS: Personal hygiene was significantly associated with the incidence of helminthiasis (RP = 6.052; 95% CI = 3.029-12.902; P-value = 0.001). Improved personal hygiene may prevent the occurrence of helminthiasis. CONCLUSION: The proportion of helminthiasis in elementary school students in this region was 50.0%. Personal hygiene has been shown to be related to helminthiasis. In this study, subjects with poor personal hygiene had a chance of 6.052 times greater to experience helminth infection compared to subjects who had good personal hygiene.

Di Indonesia penyakit cacingan tersebar luas di pedesaan dan di perkotaan dengan prevalensi semua umur 40%-60% dan murid SD 60-80%. Survei Depkes RI di 10 propinsi di Indonesia menemukan prevalensi kecacingan di Kabupaten Pesisir Selatan tahun 2003 (85, 8%) dan tahun 2005 (51,4% ) lebih tinggi dari kabupaten lain. Angka infeksi kecacingan tinggi dipengaruhi oleh kebersihan diri, sanitasi lingkungan dan kebiasaan penduduk. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui hubungan perilaku cuci tangan dengan kejadian kecacingan pada murid SD Kabupaten Pesisir Selatan. Penelitian dengan desain cross sectional ini menggunakan data sekunder hasil survei kecacingan Depkes RI tahun 2005, jumlah sampel 257 orang. Diagnosis penyakit kecacingan ditegakkan berdasarkan pemeriksaan telur cacing pada tinja dengan metode Katto-Katz. Hasil penelitian menunjukan perilaku cuci tangan memakai air dan sabun sebelum makan terbukti berhubungan bermakna dengan kejadian kecacingan (OR=2,35, 95% CI=1,40-3,94), variabel lain yang berhubungan bermakna adalah perilaku BAB tidak dijamban dengan nilai OR = 2,64 (95%CI=1,46-4,77) dan perilaku jajan bukan di warung sekolah (OR =1,96 (95% CI=1,06-3,65). Murid SD dan masyarakat disarankan mencuci tangan sebelum makan dengan air dan sabun. Di samping pengobatan, perlu dilakukan penyuluhan kesehatan dan peningkatan PHBS pada murid dengan pemeriksaan berkala perilaku dan kebersihan diri di sekolah.Kata kunci : Cuci tangan, kecacingan, kebersihan diri, sanitasi lingkunganAbstractIn Indonesia, helminth infection spread out at rural and urban community with prevalence at elementary school of 60% - 80% and for all age of 40%-60%. Helminths prevalence in Pesisir Selatan district is higher than that of other districts which was 85, 8 % on 2003 and 51,4 on 2005. Helmints infection depends on personal hygiene, environmental sanitation and residential habit. The objective of the this study is to know relationship between hand washing behaviour before eating with helminths occurrence among elementary school students in Pesisir Selatan.

Research’s results showing that hand washing behaviour before eating is related to helminths occurrence (OR= 2,35, 95% CI = 1,40-3,94), other variables with statistically significant relationship to helminths occurrence is defecation behavior not at the toilet (OR = 2,64; (95% CI OR =1,46-4,77) and eating snacks in small shop at school (OR= 1,96 ;95% CI=1,06-3,65). It is recommended to elementary school student and society to familiarize to hand washing before eating with water and soap.

Soil Transmitted Helminths (STH) infections is one of health issues in Indonesia that has environment and social basis. It is classified as neglected disease. The Indonesian government already has eradication program, but it is not supported by evaluation and monitoring program. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence and relation of each risk factors related to STH infections in elementary school in Ngis village, Karangasem regency, Bali. The study was done by analytical description using cross sectional study. Samples were selected from population based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Primary data about suspected risk factors were collected using questionnaire. Diagnosis was established using Kato-Katz modification method. Data was analyzed using chi-square with confidence interval 95% or p value ≤0.05 categorized as significant. 138 students enrolled in this study, the median age is 9 (6-13) years. The prevalence of STH infections is 10.1% with 78.6% is single infection of Trichuris trichiura and 21.4% mixed infections. The proportion of STH infections in males is higher than female but it is statistically insignificant. STH infections have significant relationship with some risk factors such as not washing hand after defecation, not washing hand after playing with soil, barefoot, not cutting nails and consuming anti-helminthic routinely. The highest risk factor of STH infections in Ngis village is not having available and proper latrine. (OR=33.9; 95%CI=5.749-199.769). The prevalence of STH infection is quite high with mild to moderate intensity and risk factors namely low hygiene and limited latrines.

Background: The prevalence of Soil Transmitted Helminth (STH) infections in Indonesia is still high, especially in elementary school children in North Sumatra Province.  STH infection is thought to cause harm to nutrient requirements due to lack of calories, causing health and nutritional conditions to decline. Purposes: To determine the relationship of STH infection with nutritional status in 105926 State Elementary School students. Method: Analytic observational with cross sectional design.  Sampling uses a total sampling method, with a total sample of 87 people.  Nutritional status was determined by the CDC-NCHS 2000 growth curve and the determination of the STH infection used the Kato-Katz examination method.  Results: 26 samples (29,9%) were positive and 61 samples (70,1%) were negative for STH infections.  Positive samples infected with STH have nutritional status that is dominated by moderate and good nutritional status. Conclusion: There is no correlation between STH infection and nutritional status in 105296 State Elementary School students in Percut Sei Tuan District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra.
