THE INFLUENCE OF COCONUT OIL (COCOS NUCIFERA L) WITH Lime (CITRUS AURANTUFOLIA L) TOWARDS REDUCTION FEVER ON POST IMMUNIZATION BABIES

Abstract

Based on the World Health Organization (WHO) the number of cases of fever worldwide reaches 16-33 million with 500-600 thousand deaths each year. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of coconut oil (Cocos nucifera) immunization L) with lime juice (Citrusaurantufolia L) to reduce fever in infants after DPT Immunization in the Work Area of Lubuk Basung Health Center in 2019. This is Quasi Experiment with Pretest-Postest approach. The study population was all babies after DPT immunization at the Lubuk Basung Health Center. The sampling technique is done by using Purposive Sampling technique. This research was conducted in SLubuk Basung Public Health Center. Data analysis using statistical tests Paired Samples TTest. The results showed that there was a significant difference that was 12.584> 2.306. This means that the Ha hypothesis is accepted because the value of Tcount> T table. Statistical test results obtained a p value of 0,000 <0.05, because <0.05, the difference is statistically significant or significant at a probability of 0.05. In conclusion there is a significant influence in the use of coconut oil with lime juice in reducing fever in infants after DPT immunization. It is hoped that the community will carry out initial treatment to reduce children's body temperature by non-pharmacological means by giving coconut oil (Cocosnucifera L) with lime juice (Citrus aurantufolia L).
