Abstract

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (VCF) is a significant causeof morbidity and mortality among elderly patients. Fractures canhappen because of osteoporosis, tumors, or other conditions.In the past two decades, kyphoplasty has emerged as surgicaloptions that play a central role in the treatment of vertebralcompression fractures. Before the common use of kyphoplasty, theprincipal surgical option for treatment of compression fractures wasdecompression and fusion. However, surgical fixation frequentlyfailed in elderly patients because of osteopenia. Kyphoplastyhas expanded to include treatment of osteoporotic compressionfractures, traumatic compression fractures, and metastaticcompression fractures. Osteoporotic compression fractures are nowthe most common indication for this procedure.Kyphoplasty utilizes an inflatable balloon to create a cavityfor the cement with the additional potential goals of restoringheight and reducing kyphosis. Kyphoplasty is an effectivetreatment options for the reduction of pain associated withvertebral body compression fractures. Biomechanical studiesdemonstrate that kyphoplasty is initially superior for increasingvertebral body height and reducing kyphosis, but these gainsare lost with repetitive loading. Complications secondaryto extravasation of cement include compression of neuralelements and venous embolism. These complications are rarebut more common with vertebroplasty. Kyphoplasty is a safeand effective procedure for the treatment of vertebral bodycompression fractures.

Abstract

Hypertension is a global public health problem that contributes to the leading cause of death and death worldwide. The prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia based on the results of blood pressure measurements in residents aged ≥18 years is 34.11%. Hypertension can be caused by 2 factors, namely risk factors that can be modified (diet, physical activity, alcohol, cigarettes) and risk factors that cannot be modified (age, gender, and genetics). Hypertension that is not managed properly can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. This activity uses sustainable methods in the form of PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Action) and blood pressure measurement. It was found that 26 participants suffered from hypertension. Screening for hypertension is very important to prevent complications and produce a better quality of life.

Insomnia is characterized by dissatisfaction with the quality or quantity of sleep, insomnia presents challenges such as difficulty initiating, maintaining, and waking early, and is common in older adults. The Hana Nursing Home hosted this activity, with 61 participants in attendance. In this activity, there were 9 elderly people with mild and moderate insomnia respectively (14.75%) and 5 people (8.2%). Therefore, comprehensive clinical evaluation in the form of education and early detection is essential for effective clinical management of insomnia. Keywords: Insomnia, Education, Early detection
