Abstract

Abstrak Tuberkulosis masih menjadi masalah penyakit infeksi di dunia termasuk di Indonesia. Walaupun penggunaan Directly Observed Treatment Shortcourse Chemotherapy (DOTS) sebagai terapi yang direkomendasikan World Helath Organization (WHO) dipergunakan, kasus drop out masih cukup tinggi. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menggambarkan faktor yang mempengaruhi kejadian drop out di Puskesmas Sukamerang, Garut selama tahun 2011. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode cross sectional dengan instrument penelitian berupa kuesioner yang didasarkan pada petunjuk perawatan TB yang diterbitkan oleh Kementrian Kesehatan. Subjek adalah semua penderita TB yang drop out selama pengobatan di Puskesmas Sukamerang, Garut sejumlah 30 orang. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan statistical programme for social sciense (SPSS) versi 17. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pasien TB drop out adalah laki-laki dengan usia < 35 tahun, pendidikan tamat SMP, pendapatan di bawah upah minimum regional dan bekerja sebagai buruh. Tingkat pengetahuan tentang TB paru penderita drop out pengobatan TB paru dan sikap mereka termasuk kurang baik walaupun peran pengawas menelan obat (PMO) telah cukup baik. Masalah tersebut ditambah dengan sulitnya akses menuju pelayanan kesehatan. Upaya penting dalam penanganan kasus TB adalah bagaimana memotivasi penderita agar mereka mau menyelesaikan pengobatan sesuai dengan program yang ditetapkan. Untuk mewujudkan upaya tersebut, diharapkan program penanggulangan TB paru dapat meningkatkan upaya penjaringan penderita TB paru dan meningkatkan strategi pelaksanaan pengobatan TB paru melalui penyebaran informasi tentang pengobatan TB paru dan peningkatan peranan PMO.
