dc.description.abstract | Background: Low knowledge and motivation about using personal protective equipment on
farmers can cause work accidents in the workplace. Upper limb injuries comprise 67% of all
injuries, and the most active parts are fingers (43%). Due to the high number of injuries among
farmers, the community needs emergency services where this emergency condition requires
immediate health services to reduce mortality and prevent disability. Purpose: This study aims
to analyze the factors that affect farmers' ability to report daily emergencies in the Agricultural
Area of Lumajang Regency. Methods: The design of this study was cross-sectional. The
research respondents were 62 farmers who were taken by purposive sampling. Data collection
used a questionnaire consisting of knowledge of injury recognition, management, and
emergency events reporting. Data analysis was bivariate analysis with the Chi-Square test.
Results: Knowledge of farmers recognizing injuries with good categories as much as 92% (p
= 0.042), knowledge of farmers doing injury management as much as 80.6% in good category
(p = 0.000), and knowledge of reporting of daily emergency events in agricultural areas as
much as 61, 3% is moderate (p = 0.000). Recognizing the causes of injury in agricultural areas
will increase farmers' knowledge in managing injuries to seek assistance in handling victims
quickly and accurately with useful reporting techniques. Conclusion: The ability to report
emergency events in the agricultural area is still in an adequate category. We must
continuously improve the socialization of standard operational procedures (SOP) regarding
effective communication in reporting injury incidents at PSC 119 Lumajang District. Services
provided are fast, precise, responsive, and alert to prevent disability and save someone's life
from death. | en_US |
