Abstract

The research aims to explore the healthy life behavior as dominant factors of ISPA on tod-dlers. This control cased-epidemiologic study observes the affect of mother’s unhealthy behavior on ISPA incidents. There are 54 samples consisting of 24 mothers of toddles with ISPA as the case while another 30 people as the control group. The data collection uses questioners for risk factor analysis by means of Relative Ratio (RR). As a result, 18 of 20 unhealthy factors (RR>1) are categorized as ISPA risk factors. These results clearly show that ISPA may easily occur on toddlers with insanitary mothers.
