Abstract

Introduction: Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease which affects joint cartilage. As many as 80% patients movement are limited and 25% of them can not even perform daily activities. Osteoarthritis is one of the ten most disabling diseases in developed countries. Due to its chronic and progressive nature, socio-economic impacts in many developed and developing countries are enormous. The purpose of this study is to determine the profile of patients with osteoarthritis in the Orthopedic Department of RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya (Dr. Soetomo General Hospital)Method: This is descriptive observasional research. Questionnaires data were obtained from all patients in the Department of Trauma and Orthopedic of RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya during September 1, 2016 until October 31, 2016. Thirty five subjects with osteoarthritis were analyzed for the study. The variables observed in the patient profile include sex, age, body mass index, type of osteoarthritis, Kellgren-Lawrence scoring system, and knee osteoarthritis severity index.Result: The result shows that 43% of the samples were aged 60-69 years, 83% of the samples were female, 37% of the samples had an I BMI obesity, 60% of samples had bilateral osteoarthritis, and 77% of samples from primary osteoarthritis. A total of 15 of 53 knee samples had class III, and 15 of 53 knee samples also had class I, and as many as 21 of the 35 samples had a "very severe" clinical gradation. These results may be due to patients who have low grade gradation clinics and have received medical attention at the level I health facility or II.Conclusion: From the results of this study, it can be concluded that age, sex, BMI, Kellgren-Lawrence assessment system, index severity of patients Lequesne osteoarthritis in RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya is in conformity with research that has been done in many places and theories that exist.Keywords: Knee osteoarthritis, age, gender, Kellgren-Lawrnce scoring system, knee osteoarthritis severity index

Abstract

ABSTARCTIntroductions: One of the most common cause of morbidity and mortality in premature infants is respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Several studies have shown that a single dose administration of antenatal corticosteroid therapy in women who are at high risk for premature delivery was associated with decreased incidence of RDS. The study aims to determine the effect of antenatal corticosteroid therapy on the incidence of RDS in prematurity in the Department of Child Health Hospital Dr. Soetomo.Methods: Analytic observational case-control design study was used for this research. Samples were taken from the medical records of RDS patients in premature baby and non-RDS with 36 samples in each group.Results: Antenatal corticosteroid therapy has effect in RDS incidence (p = 0.016). While the results of the odds ratio was 0.298 (with 95% CI 0.110 to 0.810), it means that premature infants with antenatal corticosteroid therapy has 0.298 times lower risk than those who were not given antenatal corticosteroid therapy.Conclusion: Antenatal corticosteroid therapy did not provide a direct relathionship to the incidence of respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants, but it a protective factor that can reduce the incidence of RDS in prematurity.

Abstract

Introduction: Metabolic syndrome is a syndrome characterized by central obesity, high blood glucose or impaired glucose tolerance, dyslipidemia, and high blood pressure. Nearly 70% to 80% of Diabetes melitus (DM) population was diagnosed with metabolic syndrome. We aimed to present the data of frequency of metabolic syndrome in patients with DM for a basis of future research.Methods: This is a descriptive study design on DM patients based on NCEP ATP III criteria. The data was collected from direct measurements and laboratory results of all DM patients: waist circumference, weight, height, and blood pressure of the subjects, triglyceride status (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) status, and fasting blood glucose status.Results: From 77 DM patients, results were obtained in this study were 69 (89.61%) patients with DM-metabolic syndrome  (DM-MetS) and 8 (10.39%) patients with DM-non-metabolic syndrome. From 69 patients with DM-MetS, 52 (75.36%) were female and 17 (24.64%) were male.Conclusion: A total of 69 (89.61%) patients with T2DM were diagnosed as metabolic syndrome.

Abstract

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasing in Indonesia, furthermore, it requires high treatment cost such as conservative therapy and kidney transplantation or dialysis. There are two types of dialysis; hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis. The patient who undergoes HD needs periodical laboratories evaluation due to its impact on hemoglobin (Hb), leukocyte and platelets. The purpose of this study was to obtain the levels of Hb, leukocyte and platelets regularly in stage 5 CKD patients undergoing HD.Methods: Data were collected from patients’ medical record from October to December 2014 and it was characterized based on age, sex, HD frequency, HD period, hemoglobin, iron saturation, ESA (erythropoiesis-stimulating agent), leukocyte level and platelets level. 60 samples were included with the same ratio.Results: The average of age was 45 years old and the average of HD period was 40 months. All patients suffered anemia, however, only 51 patients could be evaluated the iron saturation. From it, 37 patients had the iron saturation of ≥20% which 14 (38%) of them received ESA. There were 14 patients who suffered zinc deficiency anemia with the iron saturation of <20% which 4 (29%) of them received ESA.Conclusion: Most of patients’ leukocyte and platelets levels were normal. Patients who received ESA had higher Hb levels. Platelets levels had a reverse correlation with the longer period of hemodialysis.
