Abstract

Globally (2016) there were 10.4 million incidents of pulmonary TB equivalent to 120 cases per 100,000 population. Medan City is sample area of the International KNCV NGO with TCM and SITRUST facilities. The aim of the study was to analyze the sociodemographic relationship, knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of TB officers at the health centre with the discovery of pulmonary TB cases using the TCM and SITRUST methods. This research used cross sectional study. The population are TB officers in health centre and TB program managers in Medan City Health Office. Samples are 39 pulmonary TB officers in Medan City Health Center. Data collection is done by interview using a questionnaire that has been tested before and analyzed with the Mann-Whitney test. The results of this study were 53.8% of officers aged ≥45 years, female sex (97.4%), having an undergraduate education (46.2%), long time serving ≥ 8 years, had attended training (87.2% ). There is no relationship between age, sex, education, length of service, training, knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors with pulmonary TB case finding (p> 0.05), which means that all characteristics can use the TCM and SITRUST methods in the context of TB case finding pulmonary.
