Kepadatan larva vektor malaria di desa Ciwaru, kecamatan Bayah, kabupaten Lebak, Banten. = The Density of Malaria Vector Larvae in Ciwaru, Bayah Subdistrict, Banten Province.

Abstrak : Malaria merupakan salah satu masalah kesehatan utama di Indonesia dikarenakan tingginya mortalitas dan morbiditas penyakit ini. Pada tahun 2007, Kecamatan Bayah dinyatakan mengalami kejadian luar biasa malaria. Meskipun telah dilaksanakan program pemberantasan malaria, ternyata masih terdapat laporan kasus malaria di daerah tersebut. Pada tahun 2007, dilaporkan 198 kasus malaria di Kecamatan Bayah sehingga diperlukan strategi pemberantasan malaria yang sesuai, yaitu integrated vector management yang memfokuskan pada jenis vektor lokal malaria dan menentukan tindakan yang sesuai berdasarkan vektor yang ditemukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kepadatan larva vektor malaria di Desa Ciwaru, Kecamatan Bayah. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif dan menggunakan desain potong lintang dengan subjek penelitian semua larva vektor malaria. Pengambilan data dilakukan pada tanggal 1-3 Desember 2008. Penangkapan larva menggunakan dipping methode di lagoon, kolam bekas galian pasir dan batu bara, serta sawah. Larva yang tertangkap diidentifikasi dengan kunci identifikasi O’Connor. Larva yang ditemukan adalah Anopheles (78%) dan Culex (22%). Anopheles lebih banyak ditemukan di lagoon (42,93%) dibandingkan di sawah (18,32%) dan kolam bekas galian pasir (16,75%). Kata kunci : malaria, larva vektor malaria, tempat perindukan, Ciwaru.




Abstract : Malaria is one of major health problems in Indonesia due to its high morbidity an mortality. In 2007 there was a malaria outbreak in Bayah Subdistric. Although malaria vector control program had been implanted in Ciwaru, malaria cases are still reported in this area. In 2007, there were 198 malaria cases reported, thus malaria should be controlled properly. One of the new strategies for malaria control are integrated vector management which focused on the importance of local vector then choosing the appropriate control tools. The aim of this research is to identify the density of malaria vector larvae in Ciwaru. This is a descriptive study using a cross-sectional design with all malaria vector larvae as research subject. The survey was conducted on 1-3 December 2008. Larvae collection was done by dipping method from lagoon, ponds, and rice fields. Larvae were identified using O’Connor identification key. The larvae found in Ciwaru were Anopheles (78%) and Culex (22%). Anopheles was mostly found at lagoon (42,93%) than at rice field (18,32%) and ponds (16,75%).
