Abstract

Indonesia ranks 36th among countries most prone to natural disasters, with 216 earthquakes recorded by BNPB between 2009 and 2019. Aceh is one of the high-risk regions, having experienced major disasters such as floods, earthquakes, and the 2004 tsunami. These conditions highlight the importance of knowledge of basic life support (BLS), which is essential for managing respiratory arrest, cardiac arrest, and airway obstruction in emergency situations. This study aimed to determine the level of basic life support knowledge among health workers at the North Lhoksukon Health Center, Aceh. A descriptive observational method with a survey approach was used to provide a general overview of respondents’ characteristics. The study applied univariate analysis and involved a total sample of 139 health workers. The results showed that most respondents had a good level of knowledge (116 people; 83.5%), followed by sufficient knowledge (13 people; 9.4%) and poor knowledge (10 people; 7.2%). These findings indicate that while the majority of health workers demonstrate good understanding, there is still a need for improvement among those in the sufficient and poor categories. Therefore, it is recommended that institutions provide regular BLS training to maintain and enhance the knowledge of health workers.

Abstract

According to the WHO and the Ministry of Health, hypertension is defined as blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mmHg, consistent with the ESC/ESH guidelines. Hypertension is one of the leading causes of premature death worldwide. Symptoms experienced by patients with hypertension include headaches, sweating, palpitations, snoring, daytime sleepiness, muscle weakness, cramps, and cardiac arrhythmia. Clinical manifestations of hypertensive urgency include elevated blood pressure, severe headache, anxiety, and shortness of breath. Mrs. M, a 68-year-old woman, came to the Samudera Community Health Center complaining of a headache that had worsened approximately 3 days ago. The headache is felt at the back of the head, feeling heavy, and sometimes radiates throughout the entire head. The patient also describes the headache as throbbing. The headache was exacerbated when the patient could not sleep, consumed salty foods, and did not take her medication regularly.  The headache subsides slightly when the patient takes medication and sleeps with their head elevated.  The patient reported that the symptoms were also accompanied by nausea, dizziness, palpitations, and an inability to sleep at night. The patient has been diagnosed with hypertension for approximately 5 years. On physical examination, the patient’s blood pressure was 190/100 mmHg. The patient was advised to adopt a healthy diet by reducing salt intake. The patient was also prescribed the following medications: Captopril 25 mg twice daily, Amlodipine 5 mg once daily, Paracetamol 500 mg three times daily, and Domperidone 10 mg twice daily, to be taken as needed.
