ANALYSIS OF TRENDS AND DISTRIBUTION OF TUBERCULOSIS CASES IN THE SERVICE AREA OF PUSKESMAS TAMBAKAJI, 2023–2025

Deskripsi

This study analyzed tuberculosis (TB) cases in the Tambakaji Public Health Center working area from 2023 to 2025. The findings indicate that TB cases remained consistently high during the three-year period, with fluctuating dominance between Tambakaji and Wonosari subdistricts. Tambakaji recorded the highest number of cases in 2023 and 2025, while Wonosari showed a temporary increase in 2024 before improving in 2025. Spatial mapping revealed persistent hotspots in several neighborhood units (RW) in Tambakaji, particularly RW 11 and RW 12, indicating a need for priority intervention. Meanwhile, Wonosari demonstrated an increasing number of low-case and zero-case areas in 2025. These results highlight the importance of strengthening area-based surveillance, contact tracing, health education, and environmental interventions to reduce TB transmission sustainably.
