ANALISIS FACTORS OF MEDICAL INFORMATION EXPLANATION ACCEPTED BY PRA SURGERY CATARAC PATIENT IN WILLIAM BOOTH HOSPITAL SEMARANG. YEAR 2006

Abstract

Hospital as health provider has the task and responsibility to give quality of health service to the community. One aspect of quality is how the patients when they come to the doctor receive detail information about the illness they are suffering. Eventhough the information that they received by cataract patient in the William Booth Hospital had been efforted but the number of out patient in the eye unit section had been decreasing from 2001 until 2005. Because of the decreasing visits of out patient unit, it affects the number of patients who would receive operation at installation of surgery unit in the William Booth Hospital. The main point of the research was to analyze the factor of medical information explanation received by patients pra surgery cataract operation in William Booth hospital. This research was observasional with survey which was a research that explain the connection between dependent variable and independent variable meanwhile the method of this research was quantitative and supported by qualitative way. The population used in this research that all patients suffered cataract which were operated in year 2005 with the total of 418 patients meanwhile the sample all the cataract patients which were operated in may 2006 with the total of 49 patients The analyzis that was used in this research were univariate, bivariate and multivariate analyzes. Bivariate analyses used chi square and multivariate used regression logistic. Result from bivariate anlyzis shows that there are connection between independent variables and dependent variable with p values : The level of emergency of cataract illness ( p value = 0,001 ), empathy communication by communicator about cataract illness ( p value = 0,035 ), detail information sent by communicator to be understood easier about cataract illness ( p value = 0,001 ) , communicator’s feedback about cataract illness ( p value = 0,002 ) . Meanwhile in the multivariate analyzis shows that the most variable affect towards medical detail information is passing message by communicator which is easier to be understood and other variables has no effect. Communicator who has the ability to convey detail information that easier to be understood about cataract illness will fall into less level category will have 28 time bigger risk compare to communicator who has the ability to pass a message into good level category .There are also control variables in ages, level of education and care unit level response in passing message by communicator which is easier to be understood towards medical information explanation which has a stronger effect.
