Abstract

ABSTRACT Pulmonary tuberculosis or pulmonary TB is a disease that is easily transmitted through the air from the source of transmission, namely BTA positive TB patients when coughing or sneezing, patients spread germs into the air in the form of sputum splashes. For this reason, an examination method that has high sensitivity and specificity is needed as a tool for early detection of Pulmonary TB. Research Objective: To study the comparison of the sensitivity and specificity of the Ziehl-neelsen method and the Molecular Rapid Test method in examining BTA in the sputum of TB suspected patients at the Puskesmas against the gold standard using BTA culture. This study is an analytic observational study with a cross sectional design. The population in this study were all patients suspected of having Pulmonary TB who came to the Kupang Health Center, Jetis Health Center, and Gedeg Health Center who performed microscopic and culture examinations in the laboratory during 2023. Sample selection used simple random sampling method with a sample size of 60 patients. The hypothesis was proven using the Kappa test. Results: the sensitivity and specificity of the Ziehl-Neelsen method BTA examination were 60% and 100%, while the sensitivity and specificity of the Molecular Rapid Test method examination were 100% and 100%. The results of the Cohen's Kappa test showed that between the Ziehl-Neelsen and Molecular Rapid Test methods both had high sensitivity and specificity (Kappa; 0.733). Conclusions and advice: Based on the results of the study, the molecular rapid test method has a higher sensitivity than the Ziehl-Neelsen method. This method can be recommended for early detection of pulmonary TB Keywords: Pulmonary TB, Ziehl-Neelsen method, TCM method.
