| Summary: | Background:Â Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by
mycobacterium tuberculosis. The disease is still being the world
attention and, no one country is free from TB case. Until recently
mortality and morbidity is also still high. The factors that are closely
related to the incidence of pulmonary TB are the housing condition,
individual characteristics and geographical conditions.
Objective:Â To understand case distribution of cases of pulmonary TB
smear (+) and risk factors (housing condition, individual
characteristics, and geographical conditions) in Gunungkidul.
Research Methods:Â The research is descriptive analytic. Study
population is people who suffered with pulmonary tuberculosis in
2010 with total sample 138 people.
Results: The house temperature which not qualified is 37.7% (p value
= 0,53, RR = 1,14 CI = 0,7 � 1,7), a house ventilation which not
eligible is 52.2% (p value = 0,77, RR = 0,9 CI = 0,6 � 1,4), type of
flooring which not water is 26.8% (p value = 0,002, RR = 1,9 CI = 1,3 �
2,8), residential density which not eligible is 23.2% (p value = 0,89, RR
= 0,9 CI = 0,5 � 1,6), and density residential which not eligible is
39.1% (p value = 0,004, RR = 1,8 CI =1,2 � 2,8). The sum of men
64.5% and women 35.5% (p value = 0,276, RR = 0,8 CI =0,5 � 1,2),
age group is most productive 15-50 years 54,35% (p value = 0,276,
RR = 0,8 CI =0,5 � 1,2), the greatest quantity in educational level is
low education 75.4% (p value = 0,31, RR = 0,79 CI = 0,5 � 1,2), never
smoking status 40,6% (p value = 0,16, RR = 1,4 CI = 0,9 � 2,2) and
status of smoker 15,9% (p value = 0,40, RR = 1,3 CI= 0,7 � 2,4).
Access to health services from home in most cases � 1 km (84.1%).
There are primary clusters (District Paliyan, Panggang and Purwosari)
that significance (p value = 0.035).
Conslusion: The most influential factors on the incidence of TB is
house ventilation, humidity and type of flooring.
