Abstract

The demand for an effective and precise monitoring and control system for intravenous infusion therapy has increased due to concerns regarding medication errors and inefficiencies associated with current manual monitoring methods employed by nurses, particularly when caring for multiple patients across different rooms. This research aims to enhance intravenous infusion therapy by developing a real-time monitoring and control system. The system utilizes IoT technology and advanced sensors, including the load cell sensor for infusion volume detection, the FC-33 optocoupler sensor for precise infusion drop monitoring, and also a servo motor as an actuator to bend the infusion hose. Integrated with the NodeMCU ESP32 microcontroller, the system empowers healthcare professionals with the user-friendly DripControl+ app to remotely monitor and cont rol the infusion process. The results indicate a seamless collaboration among the system components. The FC-33 Optocoupler sensor exhibits an outstanding accuracy rate of 99.39%. The load cell sensor achieves an impressive 99.61% accuracy. The servo motor precisely follows predetermined positions. These outcomes effectively highlight the system's ability to accurately control the infusion drip rate with exceptional precision. The FC-33 optocoupler sensor and servo motor play crucial roles in achieving this accuracy. With an impressive average accuracy of 97.99%, the system has proven to be highly efficient. However, it should be noted that sudden changes in infusion speed could impact the accuracy of the readings. The future research could focus on refining the system's ability to respond to abrupt changes in infusion speed through advanced algorithms, such as machine learning.

Abstract

Lead is one of the heavy metals used as an additive in gasoline to enhance lubrication and combustion efficiency in motor vehicles, such as container truck drivers, and is commonly found on highways. Truck drivers have a higher tendency to inhale air containing lead while on the road, which can lead to poisoning. Hair and blood can serve as biomarkers of lead exposure in the body. The purpose of this research is to determine the lead levels in the hair and blood of container truck drivers at PT. Trans Indo Sakti Surabaya using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). This research is a descriptive study conducted at the Analytical Chemistry Laboratory of the Department of Medical Laboratory Technology, Health Polytechnic Ministry of Health Surabaya and the Standardization and Industrial Services Center Laboratory in Surabaya from October 2022 to May 2023. The samples used in the study are 15 container truck drivers, selected using purposive sampling technique. This study demonstrates results of the lowest hair lead level value at 0.1936 µg/g and the highest at 3.026 µg/g. Among the respondents, 9 were categorized as having normal levels, while 6 respondents were categorized as having abnormal levels. For the blood samples, the lowest lead level obtained was 0.146 µg/dL and the highest was 3.81 µg/dL. The lead levels are still categorized as normal. The presence of lead in the body is influenced by age, length of employment, duration of work, and smoking habits.

Abstract

An active smoker is someone who smokes cigarettes, resulting in an impact on their health, as well as on passive smokers and the surrounding environment. Smoking exposes individuals to the risk of lead inhalation due to cigarette smoke. Accumulated lead from smoked cigarettes can pose a health risk. This study aimed to identify respondent characteristics and analyze lead levels in both active and passive smokers. The research employed a descriptive approach with quantitative analysis. The sample consisted of urine samples from 20 active and passive smokers in the vicinity of Wadung Asri, selected using purposive sampling. The study was conducted at the Toxicology Laboratory, TLM Department of the Health Polytechnic in Surabaya, and at BARISTAND from October 2022 to May 2023. Based on the characteristics of active and passive smokers, regarding age, those aged 21-44 accounted for 25% of active smokers and 30% of passive smokers, those aged 45-59 constituted 10% in both categories, and those aged 60-74 constituted 15% of active smokers and 10% of passive smokers. The study results revealed that lead levels in the urine of active smokers ranged from a high of 0.1592 µg/mL to a low of 0.0885 µg/mL. Conversely, in passive smokers, lead levels in the urine ranged from a high of 0.0885 µg/mL to a low of 0.000032 µg/mL. Thus, the conclusion drawn from this study is that one respondent exhibited lead levels exceeding the normal threshold of <0.15 µg/mL.
