Abstract
The research was done to analyzed the relationship between the Staphylococcus and Pseudomonas bacterium in the air and the nosocornial infection incident potential in the intensive care unit ward. The research was conducted in Dr Wahidin Sudirohusodo Central General Hospital, Makassar. This was an analytic observational research with the cross sectional study design. Samples taken were human samples based on the criteria of the research as many as 61 patients, and the environment samples were as many as 7 rooms. The data were analyzed using the Chi-square test and spearman's correlation. The research result indicates that the air quality related to bacterium pollution is the air in the intensive care unit room does not qualify based on the Decree of Minister of Health Republic of Indonesia Number 1204/MENKES/SK/X/2004. The result of the microorganism culture and identification is found the nosocornial infection causing bacteria namely Staphylococcus Sp. And Pseudomonas Sp. Based on the statistic test, the value of p=0.026 is obtained, so there is the relationship between Staphylococcus Sp and the nosocomial infection incident potential. The Pseudomonas Sp bacterium indicates the value of p=0.054, so there is no relationship between Pseudomonas Sp bacterium and the nosocomial infection incident potential. Then in relation to the humidity is (p=0.000), and the lighting is (p=0.027), so there is the correlation on the amount of bacteria in the air in the intensive care unit room. Where as the temperature (p=0.891) and room width (p=0.956) do not have the correlation on the amount of bacteria in the intensive care unit room.
