| description | Background: Eating “sirih/Betel” (Ngeu Nata) as a culture in Ngada society can become one of the primary sources of tuberculosis transmission due to sharing leaves and betel liquid reservoirs together with other people. If one of the people who share leaves is tuberculosis (TB) patient, it can transmit TB to other people. The purpose of this study was to identify the factors that influence tuberculosis transmission in “Ngeu Nata” culture using the health belief model approach.
Design and Methods: This study used cross-sectional, involving 110 respondents, selected by consecutive sampling. The respondents were Bajawa ethnicity, age 36-67, at least consume Betel once a day together with other people in Ngada district, East Nusa Tenggara.
Results: The results showed that most respondents had high transmission behavior in betel-eating culture (51.8%). Factors related to TB transmission behavior: medical history of TB (p=0.028), knowledge about TB (p=0.038), the perception of TB severity (p=0.037); the perception of benefits (p=0.039) and the perception of barrier (p=0.038). The dominant factor was knowledge, (OR 2.36 (95% CI) 1.01-5.51).
Conclusion: Implication: nurses should include aspects of the “Ngeu Nata" culture in designing TB education for Bajawa ethnicity in order to prevent TB transmission in Ngada district, East Nusa Tenggara. |
