Abstract

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a major non-communicable disease with a high health burden both globally and nationally. This study aims to describe the clinical and demographic characteristics of CKD patients hospitalized at the Universitas Kristen Indonesia General Hospital in 2023. This research employed a quantitative descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 82 patients were selected through total sampling from medical records. The collected data included age, sex, occupation, highest educational level, place of residence, and history of hypertension and diabetes mellitus as the main comorbidities. The results showed that the 55–65-year age group was the most prevalent (35.6%). Female patients dominated the sample (55.9%). Based on occupation, most patients were housewives (35.4%). The highest level of education recorded was senior high school (54.9%). The most common comorbidities were hypertension (43.9%) and diabetes mellitus (13.4%). These findings indicate that older age, female sex, non-formal occupations, senior high school education level, and the presence of hypertension and diabetes mellitus are frequently observed characteristics among CKD patients at RSU UKI in the 2023 period. The results are expected to serve as a baseline for developing prevention and clinical management strategies for CKD and to raise public awareness regarding the importance of regular kidney function screening.

Abstract

Hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) occurs when fetal red blood cells (RBCs), which possess an antigen that the mother lacks, cross the placenta into the maternal circulation, where they stimulate antibody production. The antibodies return to the fetal circulation and result in RBC destruction. Three classifications of HDN are: ABO, other causes like unexpected immune antibodies like anti-c or anti-K and Rhesus–anti D alone or may be accompanied by other Rh antibodies, examples anti-D with anti-C or anti-E. Clinical presentation of HDN varies from mild jaundice and anemia to hydrops fetalis (with ascites, pleural and pericardial effusions). This article discusses hemolytic due to incompability Rhesus anti-D.)

Abstract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common urogenital infection in both community and hospital settings, most frequently caused by Escherichia coli. In Indonesia, UTIs are estimated to reach 90–100 cases per 100,000 population annually and occur more often in females due to a shorter urethra that facilitates microbial entry. This study aimed to describe UTI case characteristics by age, sex, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, recurrent UTI history, and clinical manifestations at Universitas Kristen Indonesia Hospital during 2020–2021. A descriptive design was applied using secondary data from medical records. A total of 102 patients met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The highest proportion of cases occurred in the 22–59-year age group (53 patients; 52.0%). Female patients predominated (62; 60.8%). Hypertension was identified in 45 patients (44.1%) and diabetes mellitus in 25 (24.5%). Recurrent UTIs were found in 53 patients (52.0%). Dysuria was the most frequent clinical manifestation (81; 79.4%). These findings indicate that UTIs at this hospital mostly affected adult females and were commonly accompanied by hypertension and recurrent infection, with dysuria as the leading symptom.

Abstract

Introduction: Urinary tract stones are a common urological condition characterized by the formation of stone masses from crystallized substances in the urine. Stone formation is influenced by various intrinsic and extrinsic factors and may occur in both the upper and lower urinary tract. Objective: This study aimed to determine the characteristics of patients with urinary tract stones at UKI General Hospital Jakarta during January 2020–December 2022. Method: This study used a descriptive analytic design. Data were obtained from the medical records of patients diagnosed with urinary tract stones at UKI General Hospital during the study period. Result and Discussion: A total of 102 patients with urinary tract stones were identified. Most patients were women, accounting for 60 patients (58.8%). The largest age group was 66–75 years, comprising 25 patients (24.5%). Comorbid conditions included hypertension in 29 patients (28.4%), obesity in 41 patients (40.1%), benign prostatic hyperplasia in 9 patients (8.8%), diabetes mellitus in 7 patients (6.8%), pregnancy in 4 patients (3.9%), and high cholesterol in 8 patients (7.8%). Conclusions: Patients with urinary tract stones at UKI General Hospital were predominantly women and aged 66–75 years. Hypertension and obesity were the most frequently observed associated conditions.
