ABSTRAK
Latar Belakang. Infeksi oleh populasi kuman rumah sakit terhadap seorang pasien yang secara fisik sudah lemah sulit terhindari. Rumah sakit adalah tempat yang rentan terjadinya infeksi nosokomial. Intensive Care Units (ICU) merupakan area dengan risiko besar untuk terjadinya infeksi nosokomial. Penggunaan nasal kanul merupakan salah satu terapi oksigen yang sering digunakan di ruang ICU dan berpotensi sebagai media penyebaran infeksi nosokomial.
Tujuan. Untuk mengidentikasi variasi bakteri pada nasal kanul di Ruang ICU RSUD Undata tahun 2015.
Metode. Penelitian ini bersifat observasional deskriptif, pengumpulan data diambil secara langsung dari pasien di Ruang ICU, kemudian dilakukan isolasi dan identifikasi bakteri di laboratorium dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 22 pasien, sampel diambil dengan teknik consecutive sampling. Penelitian ini menggunakan sumber data primer dan sekunder dari RSUD Undata Palu tahun 2015 yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan ekslusi.
Hasil. Dari 22 pasien diperoleh sebanyak 95,45% ada pertumbuhan bakteri dan 4,55% tidak ada pertumbuhan bakteri. Untuk variasi bakteri yang didapatkan yaitu Staphylococcus aureus 22,72%, Micrococcus varians 22,72%, Staphylococcus epidermidis 13,63%, Eschericia coli 9,09%, Klebsiella pneumonia 9,09%, Streptococcus sp. 4,55%, Enterobacter sp. 4,55%, Bacillus sp. 4,55%, Serratia sp. 4,55% dan tidak ada bakteri 4,55%.
Kesimpulan. Penggunaan nasal kanul terdapat berbagai variasi pertumbuhan bakteri.

ABSTRACT

Background. Infection by bacteria populations hospital on a patient who is physically weakened difficult averted. The hospital is a vulnerable place nosocomial infection. Intensive Care Units (ICU) is an area with a great risk for nosocomial infection. Use of nasal cannula oxygen therapy is one that is commonly used in the ICU and has potential as a medium for spreading nosocomial infections.
Purpose. To identify the bacteria in the nasal cannula variations in ICU Hospital Undata in 2015.
Method. This study was an observational descriptive study, collecting data taken directly from the patient in the ICU, and then carried out the isolation and identification of bacteria in the laboratory with a total sample of 22 patients, samples were taken with consecutive sampling technique. This research uses primary and secondary data sources from hospitals Undata Palu in 2015 that met inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Results. Of the 22 patients there were obtained as 95.45% bacterial growth and 4.55% no growth of bacteria. For a variety of bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus obtained 22.72%, Micrococcus varians 22.72%, Staphylococcus epidermidis 13.63%, Escherichia coli 9.09%,, Klebsiella pneumonia 9.09%, Streptococcus sp. 4.55%, Enterobacter sp. 4.55%, Bacillus sp. 4.55%, Serratia sp.
4.55% and no bacteria 4.55%.
Conclusion. Use of nasal cannula there are many variations of bacterial growth.
