Driving Behavior and Mileage with the Incidence of ISPA in Students UNAIR Surabaya

Productive lifes short by health problems cause inhaling dirty air generate from motor vehicle exhaust emissions. Transport activities generate air pollutants that lead to the onset of disease Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI). The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between driving behavior and mileage with ARI at Airlangga University students. This research was an observational analytic study and case control design. The sample size in this study was 44 people for each group of cases and controls with systematic random sampling technique. To determine the relationship and odd ratio, the study used statistical Chi Square test. The results showed that there was a relationship between driving behavior consists of the used of PPE (p = 0.008), speed drive (p = 0.001), and the distance (p = 0.001) with ARI. Respondents who never wore PPE might increase that risk of acute respiratory infection 2.6 times compared with respondents who always wear PPE. Driving speed of 60 km/hours.
