dc.description.abstract | Leptospira is a genus of spirochaete bacteria that causes a widespread zoonotic disease called leptospirosis. Leptospirosis is still endemic in Malaysia and the number of cases in Selangor is still considerably high. This study aimed to measure the awareness, basic knowledge and preventive practices on leptospirosis among students in Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Cina) Shin Cheng (Harcoft), Selangor, Malaysia. A cross-sectional study design was done and data from 105 students were collected. The study was conducted with face-to-face interview using paper questionnaire and the results were then keyed into Google form. The data were then analyzed with Chi-square test of independence and Fisher’s exact test to see the relationship between the sociodemographic of students with the knowledge and practice level of students towards leptospirosis. The study showed that around one third (31,4%) of the students have never heard or was less aware of the disease leptospirosis. As for knowledge and practice level towards leptospirosis, 36,2% of students had good knowledge and majority of the students (90,5%) had satisfactory score for practice level. The gender of students had no significant relationship (p>0,05) with the knowledge and practice level. However, the school level of students had an association (p<0,05) with the knowledge and practice level towards leptospirosis. From this study, it was found that the awareness and knowledge level among student on leptospirosis could not be considered as good. Therefore, further enforcement of public health education and awareness program in school should be carried out. | id |
dc.description.sponsorship | Leptospira adalah satu genus bakteri spirochaeta yang menyebabkan penyakit zoonotik yang disebut leptospirosis. Leptospirosis masih endemik di Malaysia dan jumlah kasus di Selangor masih cukup tinggi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menilai tingkat kepedulian, pengetahuan dasar dan praktik pencegahan tentang leptospirosis pada pelajar Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Cina) Shin Cheng (Harcoft), Selangor, Malaysia. Penelitian dirancang dengan studi cross-sectional dan data dari 105 pelajar telah dikumpulkan melalui wawancara tatap muka menggunakan kuesioner kertas dan hasilnya kemudian dimasukkan ke dalam Google form. Analisis data dilakukan dengan uji Chi-square dan uji Fisher’s exact untuk menguji hubungan antara sosiodemografi pelajar dan tingkat pengetahuan serta praktik pencegahan pelajar terhadap leptospirosis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sekitar sepertiga (31,4%) pelajar belum pernah mendengar atau kurang peduli akan leptospirosis, sedangkan untuk tingkat pengetahuan dan praktik terhadap leptospirosis, 36,2% pelajar memiliki pengetahuan yang baik, dan mayoritas (90,5%) pelajar memiliki nilai yang memuaskan untuk tingkat praktik. Studi ini menunjukkan bahwa jenis kelamin pelajar tidak memiliki hubungan yang nyata (p>0,05) dengan tingkat pengetahuan dan praktik, namun demikian tingkat kelas pelajar memiliki hubungan yang nyata (p<0,05) dengan tingkat pengetahuan dan praktik terhadap leptospirosis. Dari penelitian ini diketahui bahwa tingkat kepedulian dan pengetahuan pelajar tentang leptospirosis dianggap tidak cukup baik. Oleh karena itu, peningkatan pendidikan kesehatan masyarakat dan program kepedulian di sekolah harus terus dilakukan. | id |
