Worm infections in humans are caused by intestinal nematode worms, namely Soil Transmitted Helminths (STH), which are transmitted through contaminated soil through direct contact with parasite eggs or larvae in the soil. School-age children are a group that has a high risk of STH infection because they are often exposed to soil, contaminated water, and lack of awareness of personal hygiene. Soil Transmitted Helminth (STH) transmission through eggs is excreted in the form of feces or urine which contaminates soil and water that has poor sanitation and water supply. Worm infection in children of basic age can cause stunted growth and development of children, disability, and blindness. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between environmental sanitation and infection of intestinal worm eggs (Soil Transmitted Helmint) in elementary school children in Bangli Regency. Respondents who were examined were 30, namely elementary school students in Bangli Regency starting from grades 1-6. School environmental sanitation data obtained by a questionnaire with the observation method. The data on worms for the respondents were obtained by taking fecal samples and examined using the direct method at the Parasitology Laboratory of STIKes Wira Medika Bali. The results showed that the overall sanitation condition of the school environment in Bangli Regency was 90% good and the prevalence of worm infections in elementary school children in Bangli Regency was 3.3%. There is no relationship between environmental sanitation and infection of intestinal worm eggs (Soil Transmitted Helmint) in elementary school children in Bangli Regency (p-value 0.05)..  Keywords: Soil Transmitted Helmints, elementary school children, direct slide method, Necator americanus

Worm infections often caused by worms transmitted through the soil (Soil-Transmitted Helminths). Types of STH worms include roundworms (Ascaris lumbricoides), whipworms (Trichuris trichiura) and hookworms (Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator Americanus). Worms commonly suffered by school-age children with the most aged between 5-14 years. Worms can affect the intake, digestion, absorption, and metabolism of food, which can result in loss of protein, carbohydrates, fats, and vitamins. Trichuris trichiura and hookworm can cause massive amounts of blood loss and decreased hemoglobin levels. This study aims to determine the relationship of Trichuris trichiura infection with hemoglobin levels in children in the village of East Serang Kilasah, Banten. This research is an analytic survey with a cross-sectional design with 42 respondents. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The results of the fecal examination by the Kato-Katz method found 23 children (54.76%) with mild worm levels and 19 children (45.24%) with moderate worm levels. The results of blood tests found 36 children (85.71%) with normal hemoglobin levels and six children (14.79%) with low hemoglobin levels. Based on the results of statistical tests, the results obtained P-value 0.004 (P-value <0.05). This result means that there is a significant relationship between Trichuris trichiura infection and hemoglobin levels in children in the Kilasah Serang Timur village of Banten. Efforts should be made from the local health office to increase knowledge about personal hygiene to villagers through health education to prevent helminth infections and to administer mass worm medicines every six months. It is also necessary to administer blood enhancing drugs for anemic citizens.

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.
