Gambaran Kadar HbCO dalam Darah pada Masyarakat Dusun Gemeling, Gedangan, Sidoarjo

Abstract

Carbon monoxide (CO) is one of the toxic pollutants which is resulted from the emission of mobile sources and immovable sources. The inhaled CO will go into the lungs then into the bloodstrea. For instance, it will compete with oxygen to bind the hemoglobin. CO-hemoglobin bond forms hemoglobin carboxy (HbCO) which is 200-300 times stronger than the oxygen bond with Hb. As consequence, oxygen is pushed out from its bond with Hb. This study aims to determine the description of blood HbCO levels in the community of Demeling Hamlet due to CO exposure from roads located in Gedangan and cooking oil factory nearby.This research is descriptive research with cross sectional approach. Samples of HbCO in blood were taken from 12 housewives aas respondets who domiciled in Dusun Demeling and samples of CO in the air (5 points). Technique of sampling in this study used technique of Purposive Sampling. Data collected is analyzed using tabulation descriptively in the form of tables.The results showed that HbCO levels in the blood of respondents living nearby Gedangan had an average of 9.98% and respondents living close to the cooking oil factory with an average of 8.68%. Average of ambient CO levels in the air around Gedangan was 11456.04 μg / Nm3 and area near the cooking oil factory was 2063.07 μg / Nm3. Respondents aged > 40 years had an average HbCO in blood of 11.54% and the age of ≤40 years had an average of 6.24%.Respondents living> 5 years had an average HbCO of 9.34%. Respondents whose location near Gedangan roads had average HbCO levels higher than respondents near the cooking oil factory because motor vehicle activity lasts for 24 hours. At last, to reduce CO content in the ambient air, it is hoped that people can create green environment by planting plants around their house. Keywords : HbCO content, Carbon monoxide, Road

Hubungan Kadar CO Udara dengan Kadar Karboksihemoglobin Pada Pedagang Kaki Lima Sekitar Traffic Light

“…Penelitian yang pernah dilakukan menyatakan bahwa konsentrasi CO lebih tinggi ketika jalan dalam keadaan ramai atau pada waktu sibuk (13) . Berdasarkan penelitian yang telah dilakukan di jalanan kota makasar menyatakan bahwa jika kondisi jalan memiliki kepadatan lalu lintas yang tinggi maka dapat menyebabkan meningkatnya kadar CO udara (14) . Berdasarkan penelitian yang dilakukan di jalan kota Ambon menunjukkan bahwa jalan raya yang tidak memiliki cukup tumbuhan memiliki kadar CO udara yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan jalan raya yang memiliki cukup tumbuhan, dan berdasarkan penelitian yang dilakukan mengenai efektifitas pohon angsana dalam meneyerap polusi udara menunjukkan bahwa keberadaan pepohonan terutama pohon Angsana (Pterocarpus indicus) dapat mengurangi kadar polutan udara yang berasal dari gas buang kendaraan bermotor (15,16) .…”

The Difference in Carboxyhemoglobin Levels in Blood between Grilled and Non-grilled Food Vendors in Medan, Indonesia

“…A study by Pratiwi et al showed that more than half of the participants (58.33%) with the age of > 40 years had a higher mean in COHb levels, 11.54%, compared to the ≤ 40 years age group, which was 6.24%. This indicated that most of the participants with the age of > 40 years had a high COHb level exceeding the 5% limit [11]. Furthermore, Khoiriyah et al stated that age was correlated with COHb levels in Indonesian Traffic Warden (Dinas Perhubungan) with a moderate correlation (r) of 0.405 [12].…”

“…Road situation which was related to pollution levels and the number of passing vehicles could also affect the COHb levels in the blood. Pratiwi et al showed that CO level in ambient air around Demeling Village, Sidoarjo District, was low due to the small number of passing vehicles at the time of sampling [11]. Acute health effects such as neurological or cardiovascular-related problems due to high CO levels had been well documented in the literature.…”

“…Moreover, wind direction also affected the spread of air pollutants. The wind that moved toward the southeast direction was parallel to the road; thus, pollutants would disperse rapidly as there were no obstructions from buildings [11].…”

“…Umur seseorang juga merupakan salah satu faktor kerentanan individu. Penurunan kapasitas kardiovaskuler karena proses menua dan berkurangnya fungsi elastisitas jaringan paru-paru mengakibatkan seseorang akan semakin rentan terhadap paparan CO sehingga kadar COHb akan semakin tinggi [13].…”
