Determinants of Pneumonia in Toddlers in Jambi City

Abstract

Background: Pneumonia is an acute respiratory infection and the second leading cause of toddler deaths in Indonesia. Nutritional status, immunization status, and humidity in the house constitute risk factors for the incidence and prevalence of pneumonia. Purpose: The objective of this research is to analyze the determinants of nutritional status, immunization status, and air humidity against the incidence of pneumonia in toddlers in Jambi City. Methods: This was an observational study. A case-control design approach was adopted. The research location was the Public Health Center of Talang Bakung in Jambi City, which has the highest prevalence of pneumonia cases. This study was conducted from January 2019 to August 2019. The number of samples in this study was 66 toddlers, with a 1:1 ratio of cases. Data was collected using a multistage random sampling technique. Primary and secondary data obtained was analyzed with a logistic regression test method. Results: The highest proportion of pneumonia cases was observed in toddlers between the ages of 12 and 35 months (75.76%). The proportion of female toddlers was 57.58%, with the number of siblings being ≥1 (93.94%). The proportion of people who completed secondary level maternal education was 60.61%, which was higher than the proportion of people who completed secondary level paternal education (54.55%). The employment status of fathers was 96.97%. Underweight status was associated with pneumonia (AOR=5.81; 95%CI=1.07–31.68). Inadequate air humidity was associated with the incidence of pneumonia (AOR=7.37; 95%CI=1.80–30.13). Conclusion: Nutritional status and air humidity were identified as determinants of pneumonia in toddlers in Jambi city.

Sosialisasi Pneumonia dan Imunisasi PCV (Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine) pada Ibu anak Balita di Desa Uevolo Parigi Moutong Sulawesi Tengah

“…Penelitian Wati et al ( 2021) menyimpulkan bahwa imunisasi, ASI eksklusif, riwayat infeksi saluran napas akut, dan tempat tinggal yang padat berhubungan dengan kejadian pneumonia pada balita (Wati, 2021). Penelitian Izhar (2021) mengemukakan bahwa kejadian pneumonia berhubungan dengan status gizi balita dan kelembaban udara dimana balita bertempat tinggal (Izhar, 2021).…”

Faktor-Faktor Lingkungan Rumah Yang Berhubungan Dengan Kejadian Pneumonia Pada Balita : Sebuah Kajian Sistematis

“…Diantara hasil studi tersebut adalah hasil penelitian 18) , menunjukkan bahwa kelembaban yang tidak memenuhi syarat memiliki korelasi signifikan terhadap pneumonia balita ditandai nilai p = 0,01 OR 7,37 95% CI 1,80-30,13 dengan demikian balita yang bermukim di rumah yang lembab berisiko menderita pneumonia sebanyak 7,37 kali daripada balita yang tinggal di rumah dengan kelembaban yang memenuhi persyaratan kesehatan. Studi dengan hasil sama juga ditemukan dari penelitian 10) , ditemukan hasil bahwa kelembaban berkorelasi signifikan dengan pneumonia balita p = 0,030 OR 3,422 95% CI 1,228 -9,538 artinya balita yang terpapar udara lembab di dalam rumah berisiko menderita pneumonia sebanyak 3,42 kali daripada balita yang bermukim di rumah dengan kelembaban yang sesuai dengan standar kesehatan yang dipersyaratkan.…”
