Pemberian Cairan Karbohidrat Elektrolit, Status Hidrasi dan Kelelahan pada Pekerja Wanita (Carbohydrate electrolyte solution improve hydration status and decrease fatigue among women workers

---

Background: Heat exposure cause dehydration and fatigue if water in take is insufficient. Carbohydrate electrolyte drinks consumption maintans workers hvdration status and preventfatigue. Women workers at ironing department in garment industry are at risk of dehydration andfatigue because of the heat exposure.
Objective: To determine the effect of carbohydrate electrolyte solution on hydration and fatigue status among women workers. Method: This quasy experiment was conducted in pre post test control group design. Population of this study was women workers aged 18-35 years in ironing department of garment industry. Thirty-three subjects were selected by inclution criteria. Subiects were given three treatments, without intervention, drink water and carbohydrate electrolyte solution. Body weight andfatigue of the subiects were measured on the third, fourth, and fifth intervention days before and after each treatment. Body weight was measured using digital scales. Fatigue was measured by reaction timer to flash light. Data were analyzed using paired t test, Wilcoxon test, and Ancova.
Result: Body weight decreased 0.1±0.2 kg after work without intervention and drinking water, while increased body weight of o.iso.t kg after given carbohydrate electrolyte. Reaction timed to flash light decreased 12.2±49.0 milliseconds after given carbohydrate electrolyte solution increased 14.9±62.3 and 26.4±33.8 milliseconds after drinking water and without intervention respectively. Drinking carbohydrate electrolyte solution improved hydration status and decreased fatigue status before and after control/edfor energy and fluid intake, vitamin B1and B6 intake.
Conclusion: Carbohydrate-electrolyte solution improved the hydration status and decreased fatigue among women workers.
Keywords: Carbohydrate-electrolyte solution, hydration status, fatigue, women workers
