Description
Summary:Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis which attacks various organs, especially the lungs. Management of tuberculosis treatment based on medical history is divided into two categories. Category 1 for new patients and category 2 for relapsed patients. The success rate of tuberculosis treatment is one of the indicators used in assessing the success of treatment. In the strategic planning of the Indonesia Ministry of Health, the national standard for tuberculosis treatment success rate is 90%. This study aims to determine the effect of treatment categories on the success of pulmonary tuberculosis treatment in outpatients at Dr. Hasan Sadikin Central General Hospital Bandung. The study design was a cohort study carried out retrospectively with a descriptive approach and the sampling technique was purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out on patient medical record data and DOTS (Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course) program logbook from 360 outpatients throughout 2019-2021. The results showed that the success of tuberculosis pulmonary treatment: 63.33% was successful and 36.67% was unsuccessful. From the data obtained a statistically significant correlation between age and treatment success (p=0.000029), which means that age had an effect on the success of pulmonary TB treatment. In addition, there was no statistically significant correlation between gender, first sputum status, HIV co-infection, comorbid of DM, complicated of TB, and treatment categories.
