Abstract

Background: Hirschsprung-associated enterocolitis (HAEC) is one of the worst and most common complications of Hirschsprung’s disease (HD). The mortality rate of HD patients with enterocolitis is still considered to be higher compared to that of those without enterocolitis. Purpose: This study aimed to identify and evaluate potential risk factors for HAEC development. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using secondary data from the medical records of HD patients treated from January 2015 to September 2018 at Regional Public Hospital (RSUD) Dr. Soetomo, Surabaya. The inclusion criteria were HD patients who had or had not experienced enterocolitis. The analysis was done by comparing the presence of risk factors between groups of HD patients with and without preoperative and/or postoperative HAEC. The results were presented as the median value and frequency. To evaluate further, a prevalence ratio (PR) with a 95% confidence interval was performed. The Mann–Whitney U test was also performed with a significance level of p < 0.05 for one factor: length of aganglionic intestinal segments. Results: This study showed that 12 of the 40 HD patients studied (30%) had experienced enterocolitis. The risk of developing HAEC was associated with patients who had a history of previous enterocolitis (PR 6.60 [2.94 < PR < 14.80]). Regarding surgical details, patients who had had surgery only once (31.30% compared to 14.30%), surgery with one surgical method (29.40% compared to 20.00%), and a primary procedure had a higher incidence of HAEC (29.40% compared to 27.30%). Conclusion: HD patients with a history of previous enterocolitis were found to have a higher risk of developing HAEC.

Abstract

Background: The success of individual antiretroviral drug (ARV) treatment in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) was determined by conducting a routine evaluation of the patients’ Cluster of Differentiation 4 (CD4) count. The indicators used to measure the success of the HIV and AIDS treatment were mortality, mobility, and quality of life (QoL). Purpose: The purpose of this research was to analyze the relationship between clinical status (smoking status, duration of ARV therapy, the CD4 count, and body mass index [BMI]) and the QoL of patients with HIV and AIDS who were stable during treatment. Methods: This type of research was quantitative analytical research with a cross-sectional design. This research was conducted at Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya, from September to November 2017. The study population was patients with HIV and AIDS in Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya. The research sample was taken by purposive sampling with the inclusion criteria being patients with HIV and AIDS who had been treated for ≥6 months with adherence ≥95% and who came directly to the hospital. Results: The majority of respondents were female (53.36%), junior/senior high school graduates (66.67%), married (62.22%), non-smoking (75.56%), had undergone ARV therapy for ±10 years (77.78%), and had a QoL in the adequate category (62.22%). The basic clinical status with a significant relationship with the respondents’ QoL were the CD4 count (p = 0.00) and BMI (p = 0.00). Conclusion: There was a relationship of the CD4 count and BMI with the QoL of the patients with HIV and AIDS.

Abstract

Background: Pinworm infection remains a global public health problem in Indonesia, with the highest prevalence in primary school–aged children. The government has made helminthiasis control efforts through annual deworming every six months, yet data on the enterobiasis prevalence and its risk factors are still limited. Purpose: This research aimed to determine the role of personal hygiene and anthelmintic or worm medicine consumption in the prevention of enterobiasis among primary school children. Methods: This research employed an analytic observational method with a cross-sectional design. The population used was primary school children in the Public Health Center (PHC) of Kaliwungu area, Kendal District, Central Java Province. The research sample was 150 students from first grade to third grade at 1 Primary Elementary School 1 Kutoharjo. The data sources were obtained from interviews of risk factors and perianal swab examinations. The data were analyzed by a chi-square test and multiple logistic regression. Results: The prevalence of pinworm infection among primary school children remains high (37.33%). The results of the multivariate analysis showed that there are three determinant variables of pinworm infections: not washing hands with soap before eating (p < 0.01; Prevalence Odds Ratio (POR) = 6.47; 95% Confidence Interval [CI] = 2.87 < POR < 14.59); not washing hands with soap after defecation (p = 0.01; POR = 3.36; 95% CI = 1.40 < POR < 8.05); and not consuming anthelmintic drugs within the past six months (p = 0.03; POR = 2.43; 95% CI = 1.08 < POR < 5.50). Conclusion: Hand washing habits and annual deworming are important factors to prevent pinworm infections.

Abstract

Background: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is one of many life-threatening complications of diabetes mellitus (DM), which is characterized by severe hyperglycemia, metabolic acidosis and ketonemia. This complication can eventually lead to coma and death if not treated properly. Purpose: The aim of this study is to describe the profile of the DKA patients who were at Regional Public Hospital (RSUD) Dr. Soetomo in 2017. Methods: This study was a descriptive study that used the medical record data of DKA patients who were at RSUD Dr. Soetomo in 2017. The study’s total sample size was 63 patients. The study’s variables were gender, age, type of DM, severity of DKA, precipitating factors, main complaints, vital signs, random plasma glucose level, electrolyte level, and blood gas analysis. The frequency, mean, and standard deviation were analyzed. Results: Most of the 63 DKA patients were female (66.67%), aged from 50–59 years (38.10%). The DKA cases being handled by the Dr. Soetomo Hospital were overwhelmingly of type 2 DM patients (88.89%). More than half the patients (58.73%) experienced severe DKA. Altered states of consciousness (46.03%) and shortness of breath (26.98%) were the most common main complains made by the DKA patients. Almost all patients experienced infection (88.89%) as the precipitating factor; the most common infections were sepsis (92.86%), pneumonia (30.36%), and urinary tract infections (23.21%). Two thirds of the patients (66.67%) had a length of stay of 0–7 days. About 57.14% of the DKA patients died while undergoing treatment. Conclusion: The number of severe DKA patients and the mortality rate in our study were higher than in other studies. Females and the elderly were more prone to DKA, and the most common precipitating factor was infection.

Abstract

Background: Acne Vulgaris (AV) is one of the most common diseases in the field of dermatology and ranks as the eighth most prevalent disease worldwide. Early management of this potentially deforming skin disease may reduce the pathophysiological burden and improve the quality of life of patients. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the pharmacotherapy for new patients with AV. Methods: This cross-sectional study used new patients with AV of the Cosmetic Division of the Outpatient Skin and Venereal Health Unit, Regional Public Hospital (RSUD) Dr. Soetomo, from January to December 2013 that were descriptively presented. The variable was the pharmacotherapy given. This study used secondary data collection by looking at the patients’ medical records. The variables studied were acne lesions and pharmacotherapy regimens, including the administration route and the medicine used. Results: The number of samples that met the inclusion criteria was 951 patients. Comedonal acne was most commonly given topical tretinoin. Papulopustular acne was most commonly given a topical combination of clindamycin and tretinoin, while acne conglobata was most commonly given a combination of topical clindamycin and tretinoin with oral doxycycline. Conclusion: The new patients with comedonal acne were mostly prescribed topical tretinoin pharmacotherapy. A pharmacotherapy combination of topical clindamycin and tretinoin was given to most new patients with papulopustular acne, whereas new patients with conglobata acne were given a pharmacotherapy combination of topical tretinoin and clindamycin with oral doxycycline.

Abstract

Background: Pneumonia is one of the leading causes of death for children and is caused by pneumococcus, staphylococcus, and streptococcus bacteria. Exclusive breastfeeding and exposure to cigarette smoke are risk factors for pneumonia in children less than two years old. Purpose: The aim of this research was to analyze the relationship between exclusive breastfeeding or exposure to cigarette smoke and pneumonia in children aged less than two years at Public Health Center (PHC) of Wates, Kediri District. Methods: This research employed analytic observational research using a case–control research design. The number of research samples used was 60, consisting of 30 case respondents and 30 control respondents. The samples were taken in the PHC of Wates, Kediri District’s working area in July 2019. The determination of the samples was carried out through simple random sampling. The data were analyzed using chi-square analysis. Results: The research variables related to pneumonia in children less than two years old at PHC of Wates, Kediri District were exclusive breastfeeding with Odds Ratio (OR) = 3.50 (95% Confidence Interval (CI) = 1.20–10.19), the age of the mothers of the two-year-old infants with OR = 0.19 (95% CI = 0.04–0.78), and the education of the mothers of children less than two years old with OR = 3.14 (95% CI = 1.07–9.27). Conclusion: Exclusive breastfeeding, maternal age, and mothers’ level of education are some of the risk factors for pneumonia. The suggestion from this research is to hold socialization in the form of pneumonia prevention, education on exclusive breastfeeding for mothers who have children under two years of age, and the dangers of smoking for children's health.

Abstract

Background: Pandeglang, a district in Banten province, Indonesia, was the worst affected area of the Sunda Strait tsunami which occurred on 22nd December, 2018. Aside from threats of communicable disease outbreaks, the district faced the challenges of managing non-communicable diseases (NCD) in the community. Purpose: The aim of the study is to describe the post tsunami impact on cases of hypertension and diabetes mellitus and the expected one-year projections of these diseases in the district of Pandeglang, Banten. Methods: In January 2019, we collected primary data from Pandeglang District Health Office (DHO) and 15 Public Health Centres (PHCs) that were heavily affected by the tsunami. Surveillance officers were also interviewed for their subjective opinions on disease projections in both the DHO and PHCs. Aggregated data of cases presenting to the PHCs for assistance were analysed in relation to the post tsunami period. The diseases of interest included hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Results: Reported cases of hypertension and diabetes mellitus increased a few days after the tsunami. For hypertension, the cases spiked on the 5th and 8th days, but for diabetes mellitus the spike came much later. Average cases of hypertension and diabetes mellitus per PHC were 62 and 3, respectively. At district and PHC level, hypertension and diabetes mellitus were considered as minor contributing factors to the morbidity and mortality in the affected communities. The projection of these diseases was optimistic after the first month. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the volume of cases with hypertension and diabetes in the district of Pandeglang tended to be in the first few weeks post tsunami These diseases are projected to lessen in the second month after the disaster due to the recovery of local health services.

Abstract

Background: Norovirus has become a major cause of severe outbreaks of gastroenteritis since the discovery of the rotavirus vaccine, with the main symptom being diarrhea. Until now, research on the epidemiological analysis of norovirus has not been carried out at Regional Public Hospital (RSUD) Dr. Soetomo, Surabaya. Purpose: This study aims to provide clinical epidemiology data and an analysis of norovirus infections in children with diarrhea at Regional Public Hospital (RSUD) Dr. Soetomo, Surabaya, Indonesia, including the prevalence of norovirus infection in each age group and sex, its clinical appearance, and its seasonal variation. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in children aged 1–60 months hospitalized for diarrhea in RSUD Dr. Soetomo between April 2013 and March 2014. Identification of the virus in the stool was done by norovirus enzyme immunoassay Quick NaviTM Noro2. The proportion, age, sex, clinical symptoms, and patterns of the norovirus seasonal data were calculated. Results: Norovirus was detected in 64 samples (19%) of the 340 stool samples, with a mean patient age of 11.75 months; it was mostly found in patients less than 24 months of age (95%), and 64% were male. The monthly pattern of norovirus infection was mostly found in November, followed by May and April. The clinical symptoms were fever (72%), vomiting (66%), bloating (59%), abdominal cramps (34%), perianal inflammation (27%), abdominal distension (16%), and seizures (8%). Conclusion: The prevalence of norovirus was found to be high in patients with diarrhea aged 1–60 months hospitalized in RSUD Dr. Soetomo, with a proportion of 19%. Further research is needed to determine the severity of norovirus infection.

Abstract

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that is still a global health problem. Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM) can result in poor glycemic status, with factors that affect patients including long-term DM and medication compliance. Purpose: This study aimed to determine the risk factors of long-term DM and non-compliance with medication on the poor glycemic control status of patients with type 2 DM. Methods: This type of research used observational analysis with a case–control design. Samples were taken from patients with type 2 DM, with 40 cases and 40 controls. The criteria for sample inclusion were that the patients had a glycosylated hemoglobin level check, were willing to be research respondents, and could communicate well. The exclusion criterion was patients experiencing a drastic decline in health status during the study. The sampling technique used was consecutive sampling. This research was conducted at the Panti Wilasa Citarum Hospital in Semarang City from July to September 2019. The relationship and the risk of long-term DM and adherence to taking medication with glycemic status were tested using the chi-square test. Results: This study showed that a duration of DM >5 years (p = 0.01; Odss Ratio (OR) = 3.46; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.37 < OR < 8.69) and non-compliance with taking medication (p = 0.02; OR = 3.15; 95% CI = 1.25 < OR < 7.93) are risk factors for poor glycemic status. Conclusion: Duration of DM >5 years and non-compliance with taking medication are risk factors for poor glycemic status in patients with type 2 DM.
