Abstract


Insidensi kejadian carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) 3,8% di dunia dan insidensi lebih tinggi pada individu yang pekerjaannya memerlukan fleksi atau ekstensi jari berulang dalam waktu yang lama seperti karyawan bank. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis hubungan antara masa kerja dan keluhan CTS pada karyawan Bank BJB Cabang Subang yang bekerja menggunakan komputer. Penelitian ini pendekatan potong lintang dan instrumen pengumpulan data menggunakan Boston Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Questionnaire. Sampel adalah 54 karyawan Bank BJB Cabang Subang yang menggunakan komputer. Kriteria inklusi adalah perempuan dan laki-laki berusia ≥24 tahun, menggunakan komputer pada saat bekerja, serta tidak memiliki riwayat diabetes melitus dan artritis reumatoid. Kriteria eksklusi, yaitu memiliki masa kerja kurang dari satu tahun, memiliki riwayat trauma tangan atau pergelangan tangan, sedang hamil, atau telah menopause.  Analisis data dilakukan dengan Uji Eksak Fisher dan didapatkan p=0,000 (<0,05) terdapat hubungan signifikan masa kerja dengan keluhan CTS pada karyawan Bank BJB Cabang Subang yang menggunakan komputer. Kelompok yang memiliki masa kerja ≥4 tahun memiliki proporsi CTS lebih besar dibanding dengan kelompok yang memiliki masa kerja <4 tahun. Semakin lama masa kerja maka semakin tinggi risiko CTS  karena terjadi gerakan berulang pada jari tangan secara terus-menerus dalam jangka waktu yang lama sehingga dapat menyebabkan kompresi pada jaringan sekitar carpal tunnel.

 

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN WORK PERIOD TO COMPLAINTS OF CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME ON EMPLOYEES AT BANK BJB SUBANG WORKING USING COMPUTER
