ABSTRAK

LatarBelakang : Tuberkulosis paru (TB paru) adalah suatu penyakit infeksi kronik yang disebabkan oleh Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Semenjak tahun 1994 program pengobatan TB di Indonesia sudah mengacu pada program Directly Observed Treatment Short Course Strategy (DOTS) yang didasarkan pada rekomendasi WHO. Dari lima kunci pokok strategi DOTS, komitmen politik, distribusi obat, deteksi kasus, pencatatan dan pelaporan sudah dilaksanakan. Hanya saja pengawasan oleh PMO yang masih susah dikendalikan akibat kinerja PMO yang berbeda-beda. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisa faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan kinerja PMO dalam mendampingi penderita TB paru di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Kamonji tahun 2012-2013.
Metode : Desain penelitian menggunakan cross sectional dengan jumlah subjek yang diteliti sebanyak 30 penderita dan metode pengambilan sampel yang digunakan ialah purposive sampling. Sumber data berasal dari rekam medis dan data yang diperoleh dari wawancara. Kemudian diuji dengan uji chi-square dengan alternatifnya yaitu uji fisher.
Hasil : Hasil penelitian menunjukan dua variable mempunyai hubungan bermakna yaitu variable pengalaman PMO mendapat informasi mengenai TB dengan p=0,01 dan perilaku PMO dengan p=0,02 serta 5 variable tidak mempunyai hubungan yaitu tempat tinggal, pendapatan, umur, sikap dan tingkat pendidikan dengan p>0,05. Kesimpulan : Terdapat dua variabel yang mempunyai hubungan yang bermakna yaitu pengalaman PMO mendapat informasi dan perilaku PMO serta 5 variable tidak mempunyai hubungan yaitu tempat tinggal, pendapatan, umur, sikap dan tingkat pendidikan.

Kata kunci : PMO, TB paru dan Kinerja.

ABSTRACT
Background: Pulmonary Tuberculosis (Lungs TB) is chronically infected disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Since the year 1994 Lungs TB curing programs in Indonesia have already reffered to the Directly Observed Treatment Short Course Strategy (DOTS) program based on WHO recommendations. Out of DOTS’s five main key strategies, political commitment, medicine distribution, case detection, recording and reporting have been conducted. It is only the surveillance by PMO which is still hard to control due to varies PMO performances. This study aims to analyze factors related to the performances of PMO in assisting Lungs TB patients in the work area of Kamonji Community Health Center years 2012-2013.
Method: This study uses a cross-sectional design with the amount of subjects studied as much as 30 patients and the sampling method used was purposive sampling. Data sources originated from medical records and data gained from interviews. Then tested by chi-square test with the alternative of fisher test.
Results: Results of study show two variables having significant relationships namely variable experience of PMO informed of the Lungs TB with p=0,01 and PMO behavior with p=0,02 and variables which do not have any relationships which are, home environment, income, age, attitude and level of education with p>0,05.
Conclusion: There are two variables which have significant relationships which are variable experience of PMO informed of the Lungs TB with PMO behavior and 5 variables which do not have any relationships which are home environment, income, age, attitude and level of education.
Keywords: PMO, Lungs TB, and Performance
