Abstract

Latar Belakang: Konstipasi sering terjadi dan mempengaruhi 15% populasi di seluruh dunia. Konstipasi dapat menurunkan kualitas hidup pasien dan dapat dipengaruhi oleh banyak faktor, termasuk stres. Stres juga umum, terutama pada siswa, menyebabkan tingkat kecenderungan bunuh diri yang lebih tinggi dan gangguan dari berbagai aspek. Saat ini, di masa pandemi COVID-19, stres lebih sering terjadi karena berbagai penyebab. Salah satu penyebabnya adalah belajar online di masa pandemi COVID-19. Tujuan: Untuk mengetahui
hubungan antara stres belajar online pada masa pandemi COVID-19 dengan konstipasi pada mahasiswa kedokteran USU angkatan 2018 tahun 2021. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional analitik dengan desain cross sectional. Sampel dalam penelitian ini adalah 112 mahasiswa kedokteran USU angkatan 2018 yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan dikumpulkan dengan menggunakan metode consecutive sampling. Data primer diperoleh dengan menggunakan kuesioner online-shared di google form dan diajukan oleh responden. Kemudian dilakukan analisis univariat dan bivariat pada data menggunakan SPSS, yang
terakhir menggunakan Fisher's Exact Test. Hasil: Pada penelitian ini 78 siswa (69,6%) mengalami stres dan 8 siswa (7,1%) mengalami konstipasi. Analisis antara kedua variabel menggunakan Fisher's Exact Test menunjukkan nilai p sebesar 0,431, yang dapat diartikan tidak ada hubungan antara stres belajar online pada pandemi COVID-19 dengan konstipasi. Kesimpulan: Stres belajar online pada pandemi COVID-19 tidak terkait dengan sembelit.
