Abstract

Urinary tract stone (BSK) is still a global public health problem and ranks as the third most common urologic disease in the world, with an average prevalence of 1-12%. The incidence of BSK in Indonesia is estimated to be around 170,000 cases annually, with recurrence rates of 15-17% in one year, 50% in 4-5 years, 75% in 10 years and 95-100% in 20-25 years. Recurrence of BSK can increase national mortality as well as the cost of treatment. Symptoms of BSK can range from mild to severe pain with complications such as urosepsis to renal failure. The occurrence of BSK can be influenced by factors in the patient's internal environment that can be controlled through the regulation of healthy living behaviours or treatment, including family history, water consumption, physical activity performance, and metabolic profile. In addition, BSK can also be influenced by external environmental factors that are relatively difficult to control, especially BSK and the environment, including the physiography of the area where the patient lives. No research publications have been found that examine the relationship of heredity and elevation of the living environment to BSK. For this purpose, this study was conducted from March to April 2021. The type of research conducted was an analytical observational study using a survey research method with a cross-sectional design. The results showed that there were 93 (44.93%) patients with BSK, while 114 (55.07%) did not have BSK. The results of statistical tests found a significant relationship between hereditary characteristics and elevation of the living environment on the incidence of urinary tract stones (BSK) with a value of P = 0.0001 and 0.0001, respectively. Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between hereditary characteristics and elevation of the living environment on the incidence of urinary tract stones (BSK).
