The Correlation Between Density Residential, Ventilation, and Lighting against Pulmonary TB in Kramat Jati subdistrict health center. Guided by dr. YANTI HARJONO, MKM. and dr. PERTIWI SUDOMO, MM. Tuberculosis disease is a public health problem that needs to be aware of (reemeging). According to the survey results of 2008 the number of TB patients in Indonesia is the fifth largest in the world after India, China, South Africa, and Nigeria. Total TB cases in Indonesia in 2008 there were 429,682 with an estimated 189 cases per 100,000 population. Every year there are 209,157 new cases with a mortality rate of 62 246 people. Incidence of smear positive TB cases around 78 per 100,000 population. Tuberculosis is caused by various risk factors, such as age, gender, physical environment of the home (residential density, lighting, ventilation, temperature, and humidity), nutritional status, and socioeconomic circumstances. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the density of occupancy, lighting and occupancy ventialsi with pulmonary TB in sub-district health centers Kramat Jati Jakarta. This type of research with a descriptive analytic cross sectional study design. The number of respondents as many as 32 people, univariate and bivariate data were analyzed using Fisher exact test. Univariate results showed 76.9% of patients suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis and found respondents with male gender 49.4% of women as much as 40.6%, 75% of respondents arriving at the full adult age range, 21.9% were age young adults, and 3.1% of respondents older, judging from the density of residential respondents balanced ie 50% of respondents have a dense residential housing that the other has not solid, to vent itself as much as 84.6% of respondents have a less residential ventilation, similar to lighting there is 84.6% of respondents have a less residential lighting. The results of bivariate analysis showed there is no relationship between residential density with pulmonary TB (p = 0.083), however lighting is correlated with pulmonary TB (p = 0.025), and ventilation is correlated with pulmonary TB (p = 0.001). Therefore it is expected that this study respondents who have inadequate housing conditions as above can prevent early to avoid transmission to others, and the breeding of germs in a moist environment that can aggravate the symptoms of the disease. Key words: pulmonary tuberculosis, the density of occupancy, ventilation, lighting, home physical environment Referensi : 15(1993-2010)
