| dc.description.abstract | Pulmonary tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by the bacteria Mycobacterium
tuberculosis. Drop Out is a patient who does not seek treatment for 2 consecutive months or
more before the treatment period is complete which can cause TB complications. This
research aims to prove the relationship of drug dropout history with TB complications in Dr.
Soekandar Mojosari Regional Hospital and Puri Public Health Center Mojokerto Regency.
The design in this study is Corellation Analysis with the case control approach method. The
population in this study were all TB sufferers who had a history of drug withdrawal with TB
complications. The sampling technique in this research is Non Probability Sampling.
Consecutive type is a sample selection by establishing research criteria included in the study
until a certain period of time. The study was conducted on December 25 2019 - January 31,
2020. The independent variable in this study was a history of drug withdrawal, and the
dependent variable in this study was TB complications. The instrument used in this study was
a history of drug withdrawal using interviews and TB treatment cards, while TB
complications used patient status. The Spearman Rho test results showed that pvalue = 0.055
or more than α (0.05), so that H1 was accepted, which means there was no relationship
between history of drug withdrawal with TB complications at Dr. Soekandar Mojosari
Regional Hospital and Puri Mojokerto District Health Center. Based on this study it can be
concluded that TBC complications that occur not only due to drug withdrawal factors, but
can be due to factors from the spread of infections that are increasingly widespread, the
immune system of TB patients with less, TB comorbidities, nutritional status of TB sufferers,
and also knowledge of TB patients who are less aware of maintaining health, check-up
handling TB so that many sufferers experience complications. | en_US |
