Abstract

Background: Worms are an infectious disease that is common in the tropics. The high incidence of helminthiasis is caused by many people living in plantations. This is a risk factor, especially for elementary school children who often play on the ground. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the factors associated with the incidence of intestinal worms in elementary school children in the Air Beliti Health Center Work Area. Methods: This research is an analytical survey research using a cross-sectional design conducted in Januar-March 2021 in elementary schools in the Air Beliti Health Center Work Area. The population in this study were all children who were the target of worming in the Air Beliti Health Center working area with a target number of 22,362 people. The sample in this study was some children who were the target of giving worm medicine in the Air Beliti Health Center working area and met the inclusion criteria. Researchers get a minimum sample of 94 children. Data analysis used univariate analysis, bivariate using chi�square test, and multivariate using multiple logistic regression test. Results: The analysis showed that handwashing habits (p-value 0.000), nail hygiene (p-value 0.007), and snacking habits (p�value 0.000) had a significant relationship with the incidence of worms in elementary school children. The variable of snacking habits became the most dominant variable associated with the incidence of intestinal worms in elementary school children. Conclusion: Clean and healthy living behavior needs to be emphasized to elementary school students. It should also be the responsibility of parents and teachers.
