"Tuberkulosis merupakan masalah yang serius di masyarakat. Pada tahun 2010, World Health Organization mencatat jumlah penderita tuberkulosis di Indonesia menurun ke posisi empat dengan meningkatnya keberhasilan pengobatan obat antituberkulosis (OAT). Namun, pemberian OAT jangka panjang dapat menyebabkan efek samping ototoksik berupa gangguan pendengaran dan keseimbangan. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui efek ototoksik pada penderita tuberkulosis paru dengan pemberian OAT di RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan.Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif dengan pendekatan potong lintang. Analisis univariat dilakukan dengan tabel frekuensi distribusi sedangkan analisis bivariat dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji t dan Fisher?s exact test. Didapatkan 35 penderita tuberkulosis yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi, 22 orang dengan pengobatan tuberkulosis kategori 1 dan 13 orang tuberkulosis kategori 2. Dilakukan pemeriksaan audiometri nada murni dan tes keseimbangan. Tiga orang (33,3%) penderita tuberkulosis kategori 1 dan 6 orang (66,7%) penderita tuberkulosis kategori 2 mengalami gangguan pendengaran (p < 0,05).Hasil tes keseimbangan menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan yaitu 7 orang (100%) tuberkulosis kategori 2 dengan positif tes Romberg dan 11 orang (100%) tuberkulosis kategori 2 positif tes tandem Romberg. Gangguan pendengaran dan keseimbangan pada penderita tuberkulosis paru dengan OAT ditemukan lebih tinggi pada kategori 2 dibandingkan dengan kategori 1 dengan perbedaan yang signifikan.

Tuberculosis remains a serious problem in the community. In 2010, World Health Organization report that Indonesia?s ranking decrease to fourth position due to success of antituberculosis treatment. But the long term administration of antituberculosis treatment may cause ototoxic effect like hearing and balance impairment. The aim of this study was to describe ototoxic effect of subjects who were given tuberculosis treatment in H. Adam Malik General Hospital.This is a descriptive study with cross sectional approach. Univariat analysis was done by frequency distribution table, meanwhile bivariat analysis was done by t-test and Fisher?s exact test. Thirty five pulmonary tuberculosis patients met the inclusion criteria. Twenty two patients with 1st category, and 13 patients with 2nd category tuberculosis treatment. Pure tone audiometric and balance examination was evaluated. Three patients (33.3%) of 1st category tuberculosis and 6 (66.7%) patients of 2nd category tuberculosis have hearing loss with significant difference (p<0.05).Balance test showed 7 people (100%) of 2nd category tuberculosis having positive Romberg test and 11 people (100%) of 2nd category tuberculosis having positive tandem Romberg test. Hearing and balance impairment found higher in patients with 2nd category antituberculosis treatment with significantly different."

"The author begins his observation from a linguistic phenomenon in Bahasa Indonesia that indicates swapped roles and positions between machineries and workers. Many tools including vehicles and are treated as human beings. On the other hand, a lot more cases show that workers are treated as a part of technology, if not as the machine themselves. According to the author this happens simply because workers do not have their own paradigm. Workers in Indonesia, particularly in Java, think the way their employers do. Workers easily understand, and even support any sort of management decree or decision regarding their wages and economic benefit during the Asian financial crisis. The real human resources building, however, will never be achieved unless the workers can develop a perspective that is free from the penetration of the establishment and their high-tech machineries."
