Abstract

Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a long-term inflammatory condition affecting the nasal mucosa and paranasal sinuses, which significantly impacts patients’ quality of life due to persistent and recurrent symptoms. Limited epidemiological data regarding CRS are available in Central Kalimantan, particularly at RSUD dr. Doris Sylvanus in Palangka Raya, prompting this study to determine its prevalence and patient distribution characteristics. This research employed a quantitative descriptive design with a cross-sectional approach. Data were collected from medical records of patients diagnosed with CRS in 2023 and 2024. Univariate analysis was conducted, and results were presented in tables and diagrams illustrating frequency distributions by year, gender, age, and main complaints. The findings showed a total of 118 CRS patients, with 53 cases in 2023 and 65 cases in 2024. The prevalence of CRS increased from 4.91% in 2023 to 10.83% in 2024. Based on gender, males accounted for 50.8% (60 patients), while females represented 49.2% (58 patients). The age group most affected was 46–55 years (31%), indicating a predominance among individuals of productive age. Nasal congestion was the most frequent primary complaint, reported by 35% of patients. The study concludes that the prevalence of CRS at RSUD dr. Doris Sylvanus increased notably from 2023 to 2024, with a slightly higher incidence among males in the productive age group. These findings highlight the need for enhanced preventive measures and early diagnosis to manage CRS more effectively in the local population.

Abstract

Upper Respiratory Tract Infection (URTI) is a common disease among children under five years old. It acutely infects the upper respiratory tract and is mainly caused by viral or bacterial infections. URTI is typically characterized by symptoms such as runny nose with thickened nasal discharge, cough, fever, sneezing, and sore throat. URTI remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality from infectious diseases worldwide. determine the association between age, sex, and nutritional status with the incidence of URTI among children under five years old at RSUD dr. Doris Sylvanus during the period 2023–2024. This study employed an analytical observational design with a retrospective case-control approach. Data were obtained from medical records of under-five patients diagnosed with URTI and non-URTI. Variables analyzed included age, sex, and nutritional status. Univariate and bivariate analyses were performed using the chi-square test. The results showed a significant association between age and the incidence of URTI among children under five years old (p = 0.039). There was no significant association between sex and the incidence of URTI (p = 0.0578). In contrast, nutritional status showed a significant association with the incidence of URTI (p = 0.004). Age and nutritional status were significantly associated with the incidence of acute upper respiratory tract infection among children under five years old, while sex was not significantly associated. These findings indicate that age and nutritional status play an important role in the occurrence of URTI in children under five.
