Abstract

Background & Objectives: Based on data from the Ciamis District Health Service Profile (2022), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) ranks 6th out of the 10 most common diseases at community health centers, with 16,195 cases. Systemic inflammation in RA can affect blood cell productivity. This has the potential to cause blood abnormalities, which can lead to diseases such as anemia, leukemia, or blood clotting problems. Routine blood tests are performed as a screening test to determine blood values in RA patients. The purpose of this study was to determine the results of routine blood tests in RA patients in Ciamis Regency. Method: This study used a descriptive method with total sampling technique. The examination was conducted on RA patients in Ciamis Regency in May 2024 with a sample size of 20 respondents. The study used secondary data that was processed into diagrams and then explained narratively. The study used a hematology analyzer located in the hematology laboratory of Ciamis Regional General Hospital. Results: This study found that the percentage of normal blood values for erythrocyte parameters was 70%, hemoglobin was 70%, hematocrit was 70%, average erythrocyte index was normal at 90%, leukocytes were 95%, average leukocyte types were normal at 80%, and thrombocytes were 90%. Low values were found in the erythrocyte (30%), hemoglobin (30%), hematocrit (30%), MCV (25%), MCH (10%), RDW SD (10%), and lymphocyte (11%) parameters. Meanwhile, high values were found in the parameters of white blood cells (10%), lymphocytes (8%), monocytes (15%), neutrophils (10%), eosinophils (40%), basophils (5%), and platelets (10%).     Conclusion: It can be concluded that the values for erythrocytes, hemoglobin, hematocrit, erythrocyte indices, leukocytes, leukocyte types, and platelets were generally within the normal range.

Abstract

Tuberkulosis (TB) masih menjadi salah satu masalah kesehatan masyarakat global. Indonesia menempati peringkat kedua di dunia dengan beban tuberkulosis dan tuberkulosis resisten obat (TB-RO) tertinggi setelah India. Berdasarkan Global Tuberculosis Report 2023 yang diterbitkan oleh World Health Organization (WHO), diperkirakan terdapat sekitar 1.060.000 kasus TB setiap tahun di Indonesia. Evaluasi keberhasilan terapi tuberkulosis pada fase intensif umumnya dilakukan melalui pemeriksaan Basil Tahan Asam (BTA) pada sputum setelah satu hingga dua bulan pengobatan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan hasil pemeriksaan BTA pada sputum pasien tuberkulosis paru setelah menjalani pengobatan selama satu dan dua bulan. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain deskriptif dengan melibatkan 15 pasien tuberkulosis paru yang menjalani terapi fase intensif. Pemeriksaan sputum dilakukan menggunakan metode pewarnaan Ziehl–Neelsen untuk menentukan hasil Basil Tahan Asam (BTA). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebanyak 12 pasien (80,0%) telah mengalami konversi BTA menjadi negatif, sedangkan 3 pasien (20,0%) masih menunjukkan hasil BTA positif, yang terdiri atas masing-masing satu pasien dengan hasil scanty, positif (+1), dan positif (+2). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar pasien telah mencapai konversi BTA negatif selama fase intensif pengobatan, meskipun sebagian kecil pasien masih menunjukkan hasil BTA positif sehingga memerlukan pemantauan lanjutan sesuai dengan program pengobatan tuberkulosis. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa mayoritas pasien tuberkulosis paru telah mencapai konversi BTA negatif setelah menjalani pengobatan selama satu hingga dua bulan, yang menunjukkan keberhasilan respons terapi pada fase intensif.
