Tuberculosis, Characteristics of TB Patients, Family SupportAbstract
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major health problem in Indonesia, which ranks third in the world for the highest number of TB cases. TB patients generally have characteristics such as being of productive age, elderly, working in environments with pollution exposure, and having positive BTA test results. This study aims to identify the characteristics of family support for TB patients at the Tamansari Community Health Center, Tasikmalaya City. The research used a quantitative method with a population of 55 TB patients in the Tamansari Health Center working area. Results showed that most respondents were over 32 years old (43.6%) and had a junior high school education (45.5%). Regarding family support, 38 respondents (69.1%) received positive support, while 17 respondents (30.9%) experienced negative support. The findings indicate that the majority of TB patients receive positive family support. Family support plays an important role in the recovery and adherence to treatment of TB patients. Therefore, involving families in TB management is essential to improve treatment outcomes.
