Abstract

According to the World Health Organization, in 2018 there were an estimated 214 million cases of malaria, and there were 438,000 deaths worldwide due to suffering from malaria. Most malaria cases are in Africa, 88% of which result in death. The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between family support and prevention of malaria transmission at the Mapaddegat Community Health Center. This type of research is quantitative using a cross sectional design with a total sample of 63 respondents, with the sampling technique using Total Sampling. Data measurement tools used questionnaires and checklists, and were analyzed using univariate and bivariate data analysis. The results showed that more than half of the respondents (57.1%) had poor family support and more than half of the respondents (52.4%) had poor prevention of malaria transmission. Based on the bivariate analysis, the results showed that there was a relationship between family support and the prevention of malaria transmission at the Mapaddegat Health Center with a P Value = 0.004. It was concluded that there is a relationship between family support and prevention of malaria transmission. It is hoped that this research can be used as a source of information for health workers to pay more attention to family support for malaria prevention so that the incidence of malaria can be controlled.
