Pemeriksaan Kontaminasi Bakteri Staphylococcus aureus pada Seragam Dokter Muda yang Bertugas di ICU Dewasa RSVP H. Adam Malik Medan
ii
ABSTRAK
Seragam dokter berpotensi terkontaminasi dengan bakteri patogen dan
selalu menjadi perhatian sebagai risiko transmisi bakteri patogen di lingkungan
rumah sakit. Staphylococcus aureus adalah penyebab utama infeksi rumah sakit.
Infeksi disebabkan strain resistan dari S. aureus sulit diobati karena telah
berkembang menjadi resistan terhadap obat-obat antimikroba.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kontaminasi bakteri S. aureus
pada seragam dokter muda yang bertugas di ICU dewasa RSUP H. Adam Malik
Medan.
Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan desain cross
sectional. Berdasarkan teknik consecutive sampling diperoleh sampel berjumlah
30 orang dokter muda, kemudian dilakukan pengumpulan data primer.
Melalui metode identifikasi konvensional ditemukan 17 isolat S. aureus
dari seluruh sampel. Hasil skrining dengan metode uji disk Cefoxitin
menunjukkan bahwa satu diantara 17 isolat tersebut teridentifikasi sebagai
MRSA.
Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini disimpulkan bahwa ditemukan prevalensi
S. aureus yang mengkontaminasi seragam dokter muda pada sisi seragam sebesar
56,7% dan MRSA sebesar 3,3%.

ABSTRACT
White coats are highly potential of being contaminated by pathogenic
bacteria and are often the site of being at risk in the transmission of pathogenic
bacteria in hospitals. Staphylococcus aureus is the main cause of infection in
hospitals. Infections caused by the resistant strain from S. aureus are difficult to
be cured due to its resistant trait towards antimicrobial drugs.
The aim of this study was to investigate S. aureus contamination of the
white coats that were used by young doctors’ who work in the adult ICU RSUP H.
Adam Malik Medan.
This is a descriptive study with cross sectional method. Based on
consecutive sampling technique, investigator was collected the primary data from
30 young doctors. Bacterial identification was using the conventional method.
Overall, investigator found 17 white coats that were contaminated with S.
aureus. Screening results with Cefoxitin disk test method showed that one of the
17 isolates was identified as MRSA.
Based on the results of this study, investigator concluded that the
prevalence of S. aureus and MRSA that contaminated young doctors’ white coats
were 56,7% and 3,3%, respectively.
