ABSTRAK
Hepatitis C merupakan penyakit infeksi yang disebabkan oleh virus Hepatitis C (HCV) yang menyerang organ hati dan dapat berkembang menjadi kronis serta menimbulkan komplikasi serius. Populasi tahanan di Rumah Tahanan Negara (Rutan) termasuk kelompok berisiko tinggi terhadap infeksi Hepatitis C karena berkaitan dengan riwayat perilaku berisiko sebelum masa penahanan.
Pemeriksaan Anti-HCV menggunakan metode rapid diagnostic test (RDT) dipilih sebagai skrining awal karena memiliki prosedur sederhana, hasil cepat, serta sensitivitas dan spesifitas yang cukup baik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui Gambaran hasil pemeriksaan Anti-HCV dan karakteristik sampel penelitian pada tahanan di Rumah Tahanan Negara Perempuan Kelas IIA Sukamiskin Kota Bandung.
Penelitian ini menggunakan data primer yang diperoleh langsung dari
responden. Pemeriksaan Anti-HCV dilakukan menggunakan metode
imunokromatografi dengan rapid pertama sensitivitas 96,7 dan spesifisitas 97,5%, dan pemeriksaan konfirmasi menggunakan rapid test dengan sensitivitas 99,3

ABSTRACT
Hepatitis C is an infectious disease caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV),
which attacks the liver and can develop into a chronic condition and cause serious complications. The population of inmates in state detention centers (Rutan) is considered a high-risk group for hepatitis C infection due to a history of risky behavior prior to incarceration. Anti-HCV testing using the rapid diagnostic test (RDT) method was chosen as the initial screening method due to its simple procedure, rapid results, and good sensitivity and specificity. This study aimed to describe the results of anti-HCV testing and the characteristics of the research sample among inmates at the Class IIA Sukamiskin Women\'s State Detention Center in Bandung City.
This study used primary data obtained directly from respondents. Anti-
HCV testing was performed using immunochromatography, with a sensitivity of 96.7% and a specificity of 97.5% for the initial rapid test, and a confirmatory rapid test with a sensitivity of 99.3% and a specificity of 98.1%. Data were collected through interviews and questionnaires. The data were then processed and presented in a distribution table.
The initial test results showed that three respondents tested reactive for
anti-HCV out of 30 samples, and the confirmatory test revealed two reactive for anti-HCV.
The study concluded that the percentage of prisoners with anti-HCV tests was 2 reactive for anti-HCV, representing 6.67%, and 28 non-reactive for 93.33%. Therefore, increased education regarding the prevention and
transmission of hepatitis C is necessary.
