Sampai kini, demam berdarah dengue masih menjadi masalah kesehatan yang utama di Kota Depok. Hal tersebut terlihat pada jumlah kasus yang terus meningkat dan semua kelurahan sudah berkembang menjadi daerah endemis demam berdarah dengue yang dapat dicegah dengan mengendalikan vektor. Upaya pembersihan sarang nyamuk PSN 3M Plus adalah teknologi yang disarankan untuk mengendalikan kejadian demam berdarah dengue, tetapi belum mendapat dukungan pelaksanaan dari masyarakat. Studi ini bertujuan untuk menggali informasi tentang pengetahuan, sikap dan praktek masyarakat dalam pengendalian vektor demam berdarah dengue di Kota Depok. Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan dan partisipasi masyarakat dalam pengendalian vektor DBD masih rendah, dan lingkungan sosial berpengaruh sangat dominan terhadap keputusan masyarakat.Kata kunci: Demam berdarah, pengendalian vektor, promosi kesehatanAbstractUntil now, dengue hemorrhaegic fever (DHF) is the major health problem in Depok City, number of cases was increasing, and nowadays all sub-district have DHF endemic areas. DHF can be prevented by vector control. PSN 3M Plus is the recommended technology, but the community has not been implemented it yet. This study aims to explore information about knowledge, attitude and practice in dengue control among the communities. Results of this study indicated that knowledge and community participation dengue vector control were still low, and social environment factor was the dominant factor influencingcommunity decision. Keywords: Dengue, vector control, health promotion

Owing to increased epidemic activity and difficulties in controlling the insect vector, dengue has become a major public health problem globally. The prevention and control of dengue rely mainly on vector control methods. A systematic review was conducted using four databases (PubMed, Cochrane, Google Scholar and Scopus) and a manual search of the reference lists of the identified studies. Data from included studies were extracted, analyzed. Applying all inclusion and exclusion criteria 23 articles was included. Further relevant articles using this keywords Aedes dengue breeding habits housing and community intervention were selected. Eight studies combined community participation programme with dengue control tools. Findings of the published literature indicate that at baseline, almost half the respondents did not know that dengue is serious but preventable, or that it is transmitted by mosquitoes. The analysis showed that dengue vector control is carried out by vertically structured programmes of national, state, and local administrative bodies through fogging and larval control, without any involvement of community-based organizations, and that vector control efforts were conducted in an isolated and irregular way. The most productive container types for Aedes pupae were cement tanks, drums, and discarded containers. Evidence that community-based dengue control programmes alone and in combination with other control activities can enhance the effectiveness of dengue control programmes is weak. This review demonstrates a paucity of reliable evidence for the effectiveness of any dengue vector control method. Standardized studies of higher quality to evaluate and compare methods must be prioritized to optimize cost-effective dengue prevention. Clear best practice guidelines for the methodology of entomological studies should be developed.

Diarrhea remains a major health problem in Surabaya. Based on data from Surabaya City Health Service in2012 there were 92,072 cases of diarrhea, and the village of Wonokusumo contributed 255 cases in 2012 andmore than doubled, as many as 608 cases in 2013.This study aims to describe the practice of PHBSin the household setting and the incidence of diarrhea. Thisis a non-experimental study using descriptive data analyses. The instrument used in gathering data was aquestionnaire and observation sheet.Results of of the study with regard to knowledge, attitudes, and practice and implementation of PHBSprinciples by housewives. In the case-group, with regard to knowledge aspect, the accomplishment wereqood or 38.4%, moderate or 44.2%, and poor or 17.4%, while the non case-group has differentaccomplishment, good or 15.1%, moderate or 61.6%. and poor or 23.3%.Results with regard to attitude among the respondents in the case group was good 19.2%, moderate 46.2%,and poor 17.3%, while in the non case-group the results were good 39.5%, moderate 54.7%, and poor5.8%. Results for practices in case group were good 18.6%, moderate 73.3%, and poor 8.1%, while in noncase group the results were good 7%, moderate 77.9%, and poor 15.1%. Finally, with regard to theapplication of PHBSprincuples, the case-group were mostly unhealthy (74.4%), whereas in the non-casegroup the most common response was healthy (65.1%).Analyses of the above data indicated that in terms of knowledge, attitude, and practice, most housewivesresponded a moderate value. Interms of PHBSimplementation the case-group showed unhealthy responsethan the non-case group.By observing the 10 indicators of good household PHBSthe family will be protected from diseasesespeciallydiarrhea

Esse estudo avaliou a produtividade dos criadouros de Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) e Aedes albopictus (Skuse) no município de Parati através dos dados da vigilância entomológica obtidos pelos métodos preconizados pelo Programa Nacional de Controle da Dengue (PNCD). O maior número de pupas de A. aegypti foi coletado nos ralos (31%), garrafas e latas (23%); e com A. albopictus o maior número foi nas garrafas, latas (24%) e vasos de planta (21%). Do total de pupas obtidas, 84,3% e 79,3% das pupas de A. aegypti e A. albopictus respectivamente foram coletadas em pequenos reservatórios: garrafas, vasos de plantas, pneus, bromélias, oco de árvores e ralos. Essas produtividades contradizem a literatura e podem ser explicadas pelas limitações de acesso aos grandes reservatórios e falha na capacitação dos agentes. Esse estudo chama atenção para a importância que os pequenos reservatórios podem ter na densidade do vetor no meio urbano nacional e conclui que a metodologia de vigilância entomológica usada tem sido ineficaz para identificar os grandes e mais produtivos criadouros. Essa conclusão sugere que essa ineficácia pode ser um fator importante pelos insucessos no combate a dengue no Brasil. Evaluation of Breeding Productivity from Surveillance Data for Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) and Aedes albopictus (Skuse) in Parati, RJ, Brazil Abstract. This study evaluated the pupa-productivity of the entomologic surveillance according methodology used by the official Program for Dengue Control in Brazil (PDCB) for Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) and Aedes albopictus (Skuse) in Parati, RJ, Brazil. The highest number of A. aegypti pupae were found in drains (31%), bottles and cans (23%); and the highest number of A. albopictus pupae were found in bottles and cans (24%), and plant vases (21%). Of the total pupae identified 84.3% and 79.3% of A. aegypti and A. albopictus respectively were collected in small receptacles: bottles, plants vase, tires, bromeliads and tree holes. These productivities are not supported by literature and can be explained by the restrictions of access for the bigger receptacles and lack of training of the agents. The study points out the importance which the small receptacles can have on vector densities in urban environment despite of their productivity and conclude that the entomology surveillance methodology for dengue used in PDCB has no efficacy to identify the bigger and more productive receptacles. This conclusion suggests that this inefficacy can be an important factor for the failures on dengue vector control in Brazil.

Over a past decade, an administrative decentralization model, adopted for local administration development in Thailand, is replacing the prior centralized (top-down) command system. The change offers challenges to local governmental agencies and other public health agencies at all the ministerial, regional, and provincial levels. A public health regulatory and legislative framework for dengue vector control by local governmental agencies is a national topic of interest because dengue control program has been integrated into healthcare services at the provincial level and also has been given priority in health plans of local governmental agencies. The enabling environments of local administrations are unique, so this critical review focuses on the authority of local governmental agencies responsible for disease prevention and control and on the functioning of local legislation with respect to dengue vector control and practices.

The control of dengue relies on the elimination of vector breeding sites. This study identified the container categories most productive for A. aegypti within the framework of the São Paulo dengue vector control program (DVCP) in São Sebastião, a large city located on the state’s coast where dengue cases have occurred since 2001. Containers were inspected monthly for the occurrence of mosquito immature stages during two consecutive vector-breeding seasons in 2002–2004. Containers were classified by their material, use, and fixed or removable status. Pupal productivity differed significantly among container types, items made of metal and plastic, and boats being those with the highest relative contribution. Significant correlations between traditional indices of A. aegypti abundance (Container Index, House Index, and Breteau Index) and pupal productivity/demographic indices (Pupae/Container, Pupae/House, Pupae/ha, and Pupae/Person) ranged 0.56–0.65; correlations were not statistically significant for any combination involving the Pupae/Container index. The assessment of pupal productivity indices could be incorporated into the DVCP without any additional operational onus, allowing vector control managers to determine appropriate control actions targeting the most productive containers and sites. Further studies are needed to assess whether pupal productivity indices may be used as epidemiological indicators of risk of dengue transmission.
