Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that poses a global challenge in many countries, including Indonesia. Its rapid and easy transmission through the air is a major factor contributing to the widespread spread of this disease. Environmental factors, particularly housing quality, are important to examine in greater depth to understand their relationship with the rise in tuberculosis cases. This study aims to: (1) Identify housing quality conditions, (2) Analyze the patterns of tuberculosis case distribution, and (3) Examine the relationship between housing quality and tuberculosis cases.
The research methodology employs a quantitative approach. Sampling was conducted using purposive sampling by comparing the case group (patients) with the control group (non-patients). The required sample size included 49 tuberculosis patients and 49 non-patients. Data collection was carried out through field observations and structured interviews using a questionnaire and observation sheets. Data analysis was performed using descriptive, spatial, and inferential statistics. In this analysis, the Nearest Neighbor Analysis method was used to determine and identify patterns of tuberculosis case distribution, as well as the Spearman’s rank correlation test to examine the relationship between housing quality and tuberculosis cases in the study area.
The results of the study indicate that housing quality in South Purwokerto District is predominantly in the medium and high categories. Additionally, the distribution pattern tends to cluster in specific areas. Based on further analysis, a relationship was found between housing quality class and tuberculosis cases in South Purwokerto District, indicating that higher-quality housing tends to have more non-patients, whereas tuberculosis patients are more commonly found in lower-quality housing.
