Program pencegahan dan pemberantasan demam berdarah dengue (DBD) telah berlangsung sekitar 43 tahun dan berhasil menurunkan angka kema- tian dari 41,3% pada tahun 1968 menjadi 0,87% pada tahun 2010, tetapi belum berhasil menurunkan angka kesakitan. Bahkan, Indonesia men- duduki urutan tertinggi kasus DBD di Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) pada tahun 2010. Salah satu faktor belum efektifnya pencegahan DBD di Indonesia adalah masih lemahnya sistem kewas- padaan dini. Peran juru pantau jentik (jumantik) sangat penting dalam sistem kewaspadaan dini mewabahnya DBD karena berfungsi untuk memantau keberadaan dan menghambat perkembangan awal dari vektor penular DBD. Seiring masih tingginya angka kasus DBD di Indonesia, muncul pertanyaan bagaimana peran jumantik dalam sistem kewaspadaan dini DBD selama ini di Indonesia. Artikel ini mencoba menelaah masalah tersebut berdasarkan tinjauan pustaka. Secara umum, peran jumantik dinilai cukup berhasil dalam pencegahan DBD, namun terdapat beberapa hal yang perlu menjadi bahan evaluasi.Kata kunci: Jumantik, demam berdarah dengue, sistem kewaspadaan diniAbstractPrograms of prevention and eradication of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) has been around 43 years and managed to reduce mortality from 41,3% in 1968 to 0,87% in 2010, but has not managed to reduce morbidity.
