Abstract:
This study aims to analyze the physical environment of the home in people affected by pulmonary tuberculosis and who are not affected by pulmonary tuberculosis, to determine the effect of the physical condition of housing the physical environment of the home in people affected by pulmonary tuberculosis. The research method used in this study is a survey method. Based on the research, it is known that the influence of the physical condition of housing on patients with pulmonary tuberculosis that for the lighting variable is part of the homes of lung tuberculosis patients who do not meet the requirements (89.86%), as well as ventilation (98.6%), humidity (91.3%) and occupancy density meets the requirements (52.2%). Houses with tuberculosis are eligible for variable lighting (10.14%), ventilation (0%), humidity (8.70%) and occupant density (47.8%). Effect of Physical Condition of Housing on Non-Sufferers of Lung Tuberculosis. For lighting variables in the control house (non-pulmonary TB sufferers) that did not meet the requirements (27.54%), ventilation (100%), humidity (57.97%) and occupancy density (18.84%). Whereas in the control house that meets the requirements for lighting (72.46%), ventilation (0.00%), humidity (42.03%), and occupant density (81.16%). The physical environment of the housing of pulmonary tuberculosis sufferers in South Barito Regency does not generally meet the requirements of good lighting, ventilation, humidity and density of residents in the house. The physical environment that is not sufferers for lighting and density of occupants is more qualified, but for ventilation and humidity is still dominant that does not meet the requirements. There is a significant influence on the level of 90% of the physical condition of the house from lighting and humidity conditions as well as the density of its inhabitants to patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Barito Selatan Regency, while to control (non-sufferers) pulmonary tuberculosis, the humidity and occupant density variables have a significant effect after controlling the research variables
