ABSTRACT
Background: DHF (dengue hemorrhagic fever) is an infectious disease that
is caused by dengue virus. To date no specific medicine is available for this disease.
Jakarta Province ranks 5th in the incidence of DHF. In 2014, the CI (cumulative
incidence) of DHF was 48.7 cases/100,000. In Cipayung sub district (East Jakarta),
there were 136 new cases of DHF (CI = 52.1/100,000) in 2015. This study aimed to investigate the determinants
of DHF outbreak in Cipayung, East Jakarta. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study, conducted in Cipayung,
East Jakarta. A sample of 594 households were selected at random for this study.
The dependent variable was DHF. The independent variables were dweller density,
water container drainage, container supervision. The data were collected using questionnaire
and observation. The data were analyzed by multiple logistic
regression. Results: DHF incidence was affected by container supervision
< 1 time per week (OR (Odd ratio) = 2.45; 95% CI = 1.57 to 3.84; p < 0.001), container drainage < 4 times/month (OR = 1.82; 95% CI = 1.19 to 2.79; p = 0.006), dweller density < 4 (OR = 0.61; 95% CI = 0.42 to 0.87; p = 0.007). Conclusion: DHF incidence is affected by container supervision
< 1 time per week, container drainage < 4 times/month, dweller density < 4.
