Rasio Lingkar Pinggang dan Pinggul dengan Penyakit Jantung Koroner di RSUD Kabupaten Sukoharjo (The Ratio of Waist and Hip Circumference to Coronary Heart Desease at the Sukoharjo District Hospital)
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of death in Indonesia. Central obesity is one of the risk factors that is often found in patients with CHD. Body mass index (BMI) of waist and hip circumference is commonly used to measure the central obesity in individuals. And now, this method is considered as the anthropometric measurement which is more sensitive, cheaper and easier to assess central obesity.This study aims to determine the relationship between
hip and waist circumference ratio with the incidence of coronary heart disease in Sukoharjo district hospital.
This study is an analytic study using cross-sectional study design. Blood pressure and blood sugar levels in this study serve as a controlling variable. 109 study subjects were taken through simple random sampling. The subjects were those who came to the emergency room for ECG assesment conducted between May and September 2009.
Based on chi-square test, the results show the relationship between hip and waist circumference ratio with the occurence of CHD with a value of RP = 1.760; CI 95% = 1.115 < RP < 2.778 and p-value = 0.007. Relationship between blood pressure and the CHD incident is at the value of RP = 1.533; 95% CI = 1.041 to 2.256 and the p-value = 0.022, while the relationship of blood sugar levels with CHD is at a value of PR = 1.148; 95% CI = 0.779 to 1.691 and the p-value = 0.317. Based on logistic regretion result show the relation between hip and circumference ratio with the occurence of CHD with value of p-value 0.028. There are no relation blood pressure and blood sugar levels with CHD, with value of p-value 0.083 and
0.782.
The relationship between the ratio of waist and hips with the incidence of CHD is confirmed in the patients of Sukoharjo District Hospital.
