Gold is a mining commodity that has a high value. Tatelu’s gold processing is traditionally done with tromol machines that produce high intensity continous noise. Noise is a trigger of stress, which is one of the causes of dyspepsia. This study aimed to find out the relationship between continous noise exposure of the mining tromol and dyspepsia complaints among Tatelu villagers. The study was done by using a cross sectional design. The samples were divided into two groups: the control and the exposed groups. Each group consisted of 20 people. Interviews used structured questionnaires, and dyspepsia diagnostics were based on Rome Consensus III. The characteristics of samples and the prevalence of dyspepsia complaints were assessed using univariate analysis. Chi square was used to assess the relationship between continous noise exposure of the tromols with complaints of dyspepsia. The results showed that in residential areas exposed to noise, 70% of the samples had complaints of dyspepsia, while in the control area there were only 25%. The results of the statistical analysis using the Chi square showed the value x2count (8.12) > x2table (3.84) and the P-value = 0.004 x2tabel (3,84) dan nilai P = 0,004 < 0,05 dengan < 5 %. Simpulan: Terdapat hubungan bermakna antara pajanan bising kontinyu tromol emas dengan keluhan dispepsia pada masyarakat Desa Tatelu. Kata kunci: bising, stres, dispepsia.
