ABSTRAK
Polusi udara merupakan salah satu masalah kesehatan dan lingkungan terbesar
didunia serta salah satu faktor resiko utama kematian. Peningkatan kematian
akibat polusi udara terlihat jelas di Asia Selatan, Asia Timur, dan Asia Tenggara.
Tingginya kadar PM dan CO diperkirakan ikut menyebabkan terjadinya gangguan
fungsi paru, terutama pada pekerja yang sering terpapar polusi. Penelitian ini
merupakan jenis observasional analitik yang dilakukan untuk mengetahui
perbedaan dan korelasi fungsi paru yang berdasarkan paparan PM2.5 dan CO
ekspirasi petugas penyapu jalan dan petugas pengangkut sampah di Kota Banda
Aceh. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan pendekatan desain potong lintang (cross
sectional). Selama rentang waktu Juli hingga Agustus 2023, terdapat 102 sampel
penelitian yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan bersedia menjadi subjek penelitian
yang terdiri dari 51 petugas penyapu jalan dan 51 petugas pengangkut sampah.
Berdasarkan analisis data pada gambaran fungsi paru, PM2.5 dan kadar CO
ekspirasi didapatkan pada subjek penelitian dominan memiliki fungsi paru yang
normal yakni sebanyak 53 subjek (52,0%), tepapar PM2.5 dengan tingkat sedang
sebanyak 85 subjek (83,3%) dan kadar CO ekspirasi tinggi sebanyak 50 subjek
(49.0%). Namun tidak ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara kedua kelompok
pada variabel ini. Analisis korelasi menunjukkan bahwa PM2.5 dan kadar CO tidak
berkorelasi signifikan terhadap fungsi paru pada petugas penyapu jalan dan
petugas pengakut sampah di Kota Banda Aceh. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa
paparan PM2.5 dan kadar CO ekspirasi tidak berhubungan secara signifikan
dengan penurunan fungsi paru petugas penyapu jalan dan petugas pengangkut
sampah di Kota Banda Aceh.

ABSTRACT Air pollution is one of the biggest health and environmental problems in the world and one of the main risk factors for death. The increase in deaths due to air pollution is clearly visible in South Asia, East Asia and Southeast Asia. High levels of PM2.5 and CO are thought to contribute to lung function disorders, especially in workers who are frequently exposed to pollution. This research is an analytical observational type conducted to determine differences and correlations in lung function based on exposure to PM2.5 and CO exhalation of street sweepers and garbage collection officers in the city of Banda Aceh. This research was conducted using a cross-sectional design approach. During the period from July to August 2023, there were 102 research samples who met the inclusion criteria and were willing to become research subjects, consisting of 51 street sweepers and 51 garbage collection officers. Based on data analysis on lung function, PM2.5 and exhaled CO levels in the research subjects. we found most subject predominantly have normal lung function, namely 53 subjects (52.0%), but 85 subjects (83.3%) were exposed to moderate levels of PM2.5. %) and high exhaled CO levels in 50 subjects (49.0%). However, there was no significant difference between the two groups on this variable. Correlation analysis shows that PM2.5 and CO levels are not significantly correlated with lung function in street sweepers and garbage collection officers in Banda Aceh City. This shows that exposure to PM2.5 and exhaled CO levels are not significantly related to decreased lung function of street sweeper and garbage collection officer in Banda Aceh.
