1 PRELIMINARY
Diarrheal disease is still one of the major causes of
morbidity and mortality. Almost all geographical
regions of the world and all age groups attacked
diarrhea, but a severe disease with high mortality
mainly found in infants and toddlers. Diarrhea was
the incidence of bowel movements with a more liquid
consistency than usual, with a frequency of three
times or more within a 24 hour period. Diarrhea is

billion cases of diarrhea occur in children with a
mortality rate of about 525,000 children under five
every year(WHO, 2017).
Diarrheal disease is still a public health problem
in developing countries such as Indonesia, because of

times throughout 12 provinces, 17 districts/cities.
Polewali Mandar, Pohuwato, Central Lampung and
Merauke each outbreak occurs 2 times. Number of
patients 1,725 people and 34 deaths (CFR

4 DISCUSSION
4.1 Univariate Analysis
4.1.1 Overview Distribution of Capital
Education in PHC Teluknaga 2019
The study is based on 80 respondents in Puskesmas
Teluknaga, in getting the highest proportion of
respondents with lower education were 51 people
(63.7%). The results are consistent with research
conducted byHartati et al. (2018) The get that the
highest proportion with low education are 64 (59.8%)
and is supported by Siauta (2015) that the highest
proportion of low education was 54 (52.2%).
According to Sander (2005) It is a basic
educational need, education can be obtained from
formal education (elementary education, middle
education and higher education) and informal
education (courses, training and education and
training). Qualification holds an important role in
public health. Based on interviews conducted with
respondents the cause of the low education
respondents in Puskesmas Teluknaga namely because
of the cost of Education high is not supported by an
ICOH 2019 - 1st International Conference on Health
400
adequate income and cause the respondent did not
continue their education to a higher level and prefer
straight married and working, the respondents take
the view on education
4.1.2 Overview Distribution of Knowledge
Capital in Puskesmas Teluknaga 2019
Based on a study of 80 respondents in Puskesmas
Teluknaga, respondents showed the highest
frequency distribution of the knowledge of good as
many as 43 people (53.8%). This is in line with
research Amin, R (2012) of the 171 respondents
whose knowledge is good, as many as 84 infants
(49.12%) and is supported by research Khikmah
(2012) most respondents good knowledge many as 53
people (53%). Lack of knowledge or understanding
of diarrhea and handling become one of the factors
increasing the incidence of diarrhea in children under
five. Knowledge about the prevention of diarrhea is
important because it helps spread the first treatment
in a child with diarrhea (Notoatmodjo, 2007).
Based on interviews with some respondents either
the cause of the knowledge possessed by the
respondents, some respondents admitted to frequently
get information or explanation of diarrhea from direct
health officer at the time of treatment to the clinic.
4.1.3 Distribution Overview Hand Washing
Behavior in Puskesmas Teluknaga
2019
Based on a study of 80 respondents in Puskesmas
Teluknaga show that the highest proportion of
respondents in the can by good conduct as many as
53 (66.3%). This study is in line with research
conducted by Nuraeni (2012)that the majority
responded have handwashing with both categories are
a number of 42 (82.3%) and is supported by Hartati
et al. (2018) that the respondents have handwashing
with good category as many as 43 people (43.3%).
According to the MOH (2007), Conduct hand
washing is a behavior that is very important in the
spread of diarrheal diseases, because the hand is a
medium that was instrumental in the spread of disease
through the fecal-oral route. Not washing hands
before eating or before feeding the food in children,
after a bowel movement, and do not wash your hands
before preparing food or prepare milk for the child,
this can increase the risk of diarrheal disease.
The frequency of handwashing respondents in
Puskesmas Teluknaga have demonstrated good
behavior for interviews, several respondents, they
claimed to have information from health workers
directly. Health care workers often claim to do
counseling to patients at the health center about
handwashing with soap (CPTS) and the benefits to
the practice of direct measures of washing hands
properly.

Puskesmas Teluknaga 2019
Based on the results of study of 80 respondents in
Teluknaga health centers showed that the highest
proportion in the can by a toddler who does not Asi
Exclusive as many as 52 infants (65.0%), in line with
a study done by Maretha et al. (2016)which is the
highest proportion of children who are not acquired
by Exclusive Asi (70.5%) and is supported by
research Amin, R (2012) that the highest proportion
of respondents who did not give breast milk to their
babies as much (70.0%).
Breast milk is the best food for the baby, because
of the components of nutrients available in the form
of an ideal and balanced to digest and absorb
optimally by baby’s digestion tool alone is enough to
keep growth up to 6-month old baby. The existence
of protective factors and nutrients in breast milk
corresponding guarantee good nutritional status of
infants and child morbidity and mortality decreased.
Several epidemiological studies state that
breastfeeding protects infants and children from
infectious diseases, such as diarrhea, otitis media, and
acute respiratory infections bottom. Kekebelan
substance found in breast milk among others would
protect babies from diarrhea (MoH RI, 2014).
Based on the interview a few respondents causes
toddlers exclusive breastfeeding because breast milk
incurred mother very little and often do not meet the
needs of toddlers, some respondents also claimed that
the mother does not give milk to their babies because
of sore nipples and do not know how to breastfeed
right so that the milk does not come out, exclusive
breastfeeding toddlers who are not usually given
supplementary formula instead.
4.1.5 Distribution Overview Nutritional
Status in Puskesmas Teluknaga 2019
Based on the results of a study of 80 respondents,
shows that the highest proportion of children under
five good nutritional status, 60 infants (75.0%). This

development would be good if the toddler has the
status of good health, a healthy environment and
family/caregiver well in his upbringing. Weighing
long illness and death risk of diarrhea will be
increased in children who are malnourished,
especially malnutrition.
Based on interviews with respondents most
toddlers in foster care by the mother so that the needs
and eating toddler adequate and based on observation
programs of nutrition that has been running in
Pusekesmas Teluknaga been running well one of
them is program nutrition counseling is done once a

health centers,
4.2 Analysis Bivariate
4.2.1 Analysis of Capital Education
Relations with Genesis Diarrhea
Toddler Age 6-59 Months in
Puskesmas Teluknaga 2019
Based on analysis of the relationship between the
education of mothers with infant diarrhea, it can be
seen that the proportion of respondents with lower
education, a toddler with diarrhea as many as 41
people (80.4%) and respondents with higher
education under five with diarrhea as many as 12
people (41.4 %).
This is in line with research conducted by
Rohmah Z (2014) showed an association between
maternal education level with the incidence of infant
diarrhea. It is also supported by Siauta (2015) that one
of the factors that influence the incidence of diarrhea
in infants is the rank of parental education. Parents or
less educated mothers tend to have less knowledge
about how to prevent diarrhea. theoretical Sander
(2005) too low public education makes them difficult
to tell about the importance of individual hygiene and
environmental sanitation to prevent the spread of
infectious diseases, including diarrhea. And the
difficulty they received counseling, cause they do not
care about the prevention of infectious diseases.
Therefore should Puskesmas Teluknaga cooperat-
ion with intense Education to conduct socialization to
the public about the importance of education for the
community in order to broaden the public early on, in
addition to conveying information or a message of
health messages goal of socialization is to pay
attention and encourage people to school without
thinking about the cost because the government
already has a 12-year compulsory education starting
from elementary school (SD) to High school (SMA)
free without charging school fees.
4.2.2 Analysis of Knowledge Capital
Relationship with Genesis Diarrhea
Toddler 6-59 Months in Puskesmas
Teluknaga 2019
Based on analysis of the relationship between
knowledge of mothers with toddlers diarrhea can be
seen that the proportion of respondents with less
knowledge, infants with diarrhea as many as 36
people (97.3%) and respondents with good
knowledge, infants with diarrhea as many as 17
people (39.5 %). The results are consistent with
research conducted by Amin (2012) that there was a
significant relationship with the mother's knowledge
of toddler diarrhea. It is also supported by research
conducted byFitriyanih (2005) that there is a
significant relationship between knowledge mother
with toddler diarrhea.
The results also supported by the Notoatmodjo
theory (2007), Knowledge is the result out and this
happened after sensing to a particular object. Sensing
occurs through the five senses, the vast majority of
human knowledge is obtained through the eyes
(vision) and the ear (hearing). Knowledge is
something that is known to anyone with any roads and
something new from the experience gained.
By Therefore should PHC Teluknaga provide
counseling in the form of knowledge regularly 1
month and uneven in some posyandu not only during
the treatment course, the problems related to diarrhea
by providing material about the factors that cause
diarrhea, prevention of diarrhea and infections of
diarrhea and is expected to puskesmas at the time of

handwashing with toddler diarrhea can be seen that
the proportion of respondents with good behavior,
children who have diarrhea as many as 19 people
(70.4%) and respondents with good behavior under

This is in line with research conducted by Majid
(2006), That the study does not prove a link between
handwashing with the incidence of diarrhea in
infants, as well as research Fitriyanih (2005), stating
that there is no significant relationship between
handwashing with toddler diarrhea.
ICOH 2019 - 1st International Conference on Health
402
According to the theory of MOH (2007),
handwashing behavior is a behavior that is very
important in the spread of diarrheal diseases, because
the hand is a medium that was instrumental in the
spread of disease through the fecal-oral route. Not
washing hands before eating or before feeding the
food in children, after a bowel movement, and do not
wash your hands before preparing food or prepare
milk for the child, this can increase the risk of
diarrheal disease.
Based on the results of the questionnaire, the
respondents have shown good behavior regarding
handwashing. But although there is no significant
relationship between handwashing with toddler
diarrhea in Puskesmas Teluknaga mother's behavior
in washing hands with soap should still get the
attention of health officials

between exclusive breastfeeding with the incidence of
diarrhea in infants. This is also supported by Winda
(2010) that toddlers who are not breastfed are at risk of
diarrhea is greater than the infants who are breastfed.
It is also in accordance with the Ministry of
Health of Indonesia (2014) which says that
breastfeeding is the best food for the baby, because of
the components of nutrients available in the form of
an ideal and balanced to digest and absorb optimally
by means of baby’s digestion. ASI exclusive alone
enough to keep growth up to 6-month old baby.
Based on observations conducted health centers
lack of education in providing information about the
importance of exclusive breastfeeding. Therefore, to
increase the exclusive breastfeeding in infants should
health centers to educate early to pregnant women at
the time pregnant mothers check its contents to the
clinic on how to treat breast and breastfeeding true
that exclusive breastfeeding out and the nipple is not
sore and explain the exposure of information about
the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding and the
differences in breast milk with formula in order not
