HUBUNGAN INDEKS MASSA TUBUH TERHADAP TERJADINYA HIPOTERMI PASCA OPERASI GENERAL ANESTESI DIRUANG PEMULIHAN INSTALASI BEDAH SENTRAL RSUD BAYU ASIH PURWAKARTA Hermanto Hutabarat Fakultas Kesehatan Prodi D4 Keperawatan Anestesiologi Institut Teknologi dan Kesehatan Bali, Email : [email protected] ABSTRAK Latar Belakang : Pada fase pasca anestesi pasien beresiko mengalami hipotermi. Hipotermi selama tindakan anestesi dan pembedahan dipengaruhi oleh beberapa faktor, salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi yaitu IMT. Pada orang gemuk cadangan lemak lebih banyak sehingga agen anestesi di redistribusi dari darah dan otak kedalam otot & lemak, tubuh yg banyak menyimpan lemak sehingga lebih baik dalam mempertahankan suhu tubuh. Tujuan Penelitian : Diketahuinya hubungan ant ara indeks massa tubuh dengan hipotermi pada pasien pasca general anestesi di RSUD Bayu Asih Purwakarta. Metode Penelitian : Penelitian kuantitatif observasional analitik dengan desain penelitian studi potong lintang (Cross - sectional). Jumlah sampel 57 res ponden dengan teknik pengambilan sampel consecutive sampling. Uji statistik menggunakan uji Spearman’s rho . Hasil Penelitian : Ada hubungan antara indeks massa tubuh dengan kejadian hipotermi pasca general anestesi dengan signifikansi p value sebesar 0,05 . Tingkat keeratan hubungan didapatkan nilai r = 0,002 menunjukkan tingkat keeratan hubungan yang rendah. Kesimpulan : Ada hubungan indeks massa tubuh dengan hipotermi pada pasien pasca general anestesi di RSUD Bayu Asih Purwakarta Jawabarat. Kata Kunc i : indeks massa tubuh, hipotermi, general anestesi

THE CORRELATION BETWEEN BODY MASS INDEX AND THE INCIDENCE OF HYPOTHERMIA IN POST GENERAL ANESTHESIA SURGERY IN THE RECOVERY ROOM AT CENTRAL SURGICAL INSTALLATION OF BAYU ASIH PURWAKARTA HOSPITAL Herma nto Hutabarat Faculty of Health Diploma IV Nursing Anesthesiology Program Institute of Technology and Health Bali Email : [email protected] ABSTRACT Background : In the post anesthesia phase, the patient i s at risk for hypothermia. Hypothermia during anesthesia and surgery is influenced by several factors, one of them is BMI. On the other hand, in obese people, fat reserves are more, so that anesthetic agents are redistribution from blood and brain into mus cle and fat, thus, the body stores a lot of fat and it is better at maintaining body temperature. Aim: To determine the correlation between body mass index and hypothermia in post general anesthesia patients. Method: The study employed analytical observati onal quantitative research with a cross - sectional study design. There were 57 respondents recruited as the sample through consecutive sampling technique. The data were analyzed by tatistical test using Spearman's rho test. Finding : The finding indicated t hat there were correlation between body mass index and the incidence of hypothermia after general anesthesia with a significance p value of 0.05. The level of closeness of the correlation obtained a value of r = 0.002 indicated low level of closeness of co rrelation. Conclusion : There is a correlation between body mass index and hypothermia in post general anesthesia patients at Bayu Asih Hospital, Purwakarta, West java.
