Abstract

Banyuasin is the district with the highest number of filariasis sufferers in South Sumatra. Nearly all of the areas here are filariasis endemic, with an mrRate greater than 1.5%. The purpose of this research, therefore, is to analyze what risk factors may contribute to increased filariasis events in the work area near the Banyuasin district’s health center. Furthermore, this research covers cases reported in 2019. Observational analytic research with case control design was used in the prepration of this report. Overall, 33 samples from 11 cases and 22 controls were used in this research. Data analysis was done on both a univariate and bivariate basis using a Chi-Square Test. The overall results of this study were the majority of the control group (66.7%). Gender p-value = 0,124, occupation p-value = 1,000, habit of going out from home p-value = 0,050, habit of using mosquito nets p-value = 0,469, habit of using mosquito drugs p-value = 0,524, The habit of using clothes and trousers p-value = 0,643, the habit of hanging clothes p-value = 0,031. Poor SPAL condition p-value = 1,000, Use of wire mesh p-value = 0,475, Poor ceiling conditions p-value = 1,000. The conclusion of this research was that there is a distinct relationship between filariasis, the habit of going out at night, and the habit of using long clothes.
