Abstract

Abstract: Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) has been a common complication which should be aware of, in hemodialysis procedure. Its pathogenesis is multifactorial, and severe anemia is considered as one of the most notable risk factors on IDH. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between plasma iron profile and intradialytic hypotension in hemodialysis patients. This was an analytical and retrospective study using medical records of hemodialysis patients at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital, Manado from January to May 2022. Sampling was conducted through consecutive sampling method, on available records.  Patients with CKD grade 5 which undergoes routine HD twice a week for >3 weeks, aged 18-60 years old were included, while subjects with sepsis, malignancy, autoimmune disease, crisis hypertension, and unstable congestive heart failure were excluded for further studies. The details on iron profile and blood pressure measurement were then extracted, which then analyzed with descriptive analysis and Pearson correlation using IBM SPSS Statistics 26.0. The results obtained a total of 35 patients; 57.1% were male. The Pearson correlation analysis on all variables reported several notable significant results, with a correlation between iron profile and blood pressure measurement were seen in TIBC and systole pre- and post-procedure (-.496 and -.611 respectively) with strong negative relationship; and serum ferritin value with systole post-procedure (.373) implying moderate positive relationship. The results suggested that the increase of ferritin value and decrease of TIBC value were correlated with the increase of systole blood pressure. Meanwhile, the TIBC had a strong positive correlation with systolic changes (.473) meanwhile serum iron had a moderate negative correlation with diastolic changes (-.365). In conclusion, there is a significant correlation between iron profile and changes in blood pressure, with higher iron profile value (lower TIBC) is positively correlated with the increase of both systole and diastole measurement; also negatively correlated with the reduction of blood pressure in hemodialysis patients Keywords: iron; ferritin; intradialytic hypotension; hemodialysis; transferrin; total iron binding capacity

Abstract

Abstract: Chemotherapy in cancer patients has psychological impacts which are depression, anxiety and stress. This study aimed to evaluate the levels of depression, anxiety and stress in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. This was a descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. Samples were obtained by using non-probability sampling with purposive sampling technique. Subjects were cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital aged over 18 years old, not pregnant, and not having an infectious disease. Assessment of levels of depression, anxiety and stress using DASS-42. The results obtained 62 patients undergoing chemotherapy; 47 were women (75.8%). The median and interquartile age range was 52 (14.75) years and body mass index (BMI) was 22 (5.17), 42 patients having an income <3.5 million rupiahs (67%), 36 patients with duration of illness >1 year (58%) and the majority of patients (79%) were in marital status. Among subjects, 23% experienced depression, 40% experienced generalized anxiety disorder, and 21% experienced stress. In conclusion, patients undergoing chemotherapy can experience depression, anxiety and stress disorders. Keywords: depression; anxiety; stress; chemotherapy; cancer patients   Abstrak: Kemoterapi pada pasien kanker memiliki dampak psikis yaitu depresi, cemas, dan stres. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui tingkat depresi, cemas, dan stres pada pasien kanker yang menjalani kemoterapi. Jenis penelitian ialah deskriptif dengan desain potong lintang. Sampel diperoleh menggunakan non-probability sampling dengan teknik purposive sampling. Subjek penelitian ialah pasien kanker yang menjalani kemoterapi di RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou dengan usia di atas 18  tahun, tidak hamil, dan tidak sedang dalam pengobatan penyakit infeksi. Penilaian tingkat depresi, cemas, dan stres menggunakan DASS-42. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan­ 62 pasien yang menjalani kemoterapi; 47 pasien ialah perempuan (75,8%). Median dan interquartil range usia ialah 52 (14,75) tahun dan  IMT 22(5,17), dengan 42 pasien mempunyai pendapatan <3,5 juta rupiah  (67%),  36 pasien dengan lama sakit  >1 tahun (58%) dan sebagian besar pasien (79%) dalam status kawin.
