Lingkungan Fisik Kamar Tidur dan Pneumonia pada Anak Balita di Puskesmas Kawalu Kota Tasikmalaya

Pneumonia is still an important public health problem in Indonesia, especially in Tasikmalaya city, West Java. It was predicted that pneumonia contributed to fetal death at about 16.4%, while the incidence of the pneumonia among under 5 years children is 25%. The objective of this study is to know the relationship between physical environment of baby sleeping room and pneumonia. Design of the study used is case control study. The sample size is 300 subjects consists of 150 cases and 150 controls. Based on multivariate analysis, the nutritional status of children relate closely with pneumonia (OR = 6.041; 95% CI =1.607- 22.713). While from an interaction analysis it was found that there is an interaction effect of mosquito coil and nutritional status on pneumonia (OR=2.828 ;CI 95%= 1.667-4.7988). Based on probability computation it was known that under 5 years old children who suffer from pneumonia has probability odds of 15.6 times has incomplete diphteria and measles immunization, poor nutritional status, and using mosquito coil compared to healthy children. Under five years children is recommended to get complete DPT and measles immunization, provided balance nutritional intake and not using mosquito coil in sleeping room
