Abstract

BACKGROUND: Given the urgent need to address the significant morbidity and mortality associated with Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) in Indonesia, there is a growing interest in exploring cost-effective screening approaches, such as handheld echocardiography.OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to ascertain the prevalence of RHD in North Sumatra, Indonesia.METHODS: This descriptive observational study was conducted within the population of North Sumatra from 2022 to 2023. Junior high school students aged 12 to 15 years were included from randomly selected schools in Langkat, Tebing Tinggi, and Labuhan Batu. Data collection encompassed various parameters, including social demographic information, parental characteristics, environmental factors, household details, anthropometric measurements, physical assessments, auscultation findings, and echocardiographic data. The data were analyzed descriptively.RESULTS: In our study, a total of 692 children were examined, with an average age of 12.9 years and a standard deviation of 1.1 years, among whom 42.5% were male. Utilizing echocardiographic evaluations, we identified RHD in four children, yielding a prevalence rate of 0.6%. Further examination of these cases revealed that the majority, accounting for three individuals (75%), exhibited borderline RHD, while one child (25%) presented with definite RHD.CONCLUSION: In our study population, the prevalence of RHD was 0.6%. A broader echocardiographic screening program is necessary to determine the overall prevalence of RHD, assess the disease burden, and identify individuals earlier to prevent adverse outcomes.

Abstract

Background: PPM implantation is used to send electrical impulses to the heart muscle to correct heart rhythm disturbances also known as cardiac arrythmia. Assessing the patient's quality of life after a PPM implantation is crucial for predicting the therapy's effectiveness and success. Objectives: This study aims to assess the quality of life of patients following pacemaker implantation by using the SF-36 questionnaire. Methods: A cross-sectional study conducted from January 2021 to July 2023 on 60 outpatients with a minimum duration of PPM implantation of 6 months in the cardiology department of H. Adam Malik Hospital Medan. Patient’s quality of life was assessed based on the SF-36 questionnaire. Subjects then were grouped based on age, gender, PPM duration and location, as well as other echocardiographic parameters that may affect patient’s quality of life after PPM implantation. Results: There were 60 patients included in this study. Majority of patients were male (56.7%) with an average age of 67.98 ± 10.95 years old and most patients had comorbidities (81.7%). The majority of patients (93.3%) had a single-chamber permanent pacemaker implanted, with 68.3% of these devices’ ventricular leads positioned in the non-apical segment of the heart.  After assessing the quality of life, we found there’s a relationship between age, gender, and PPM lead locations with nearly all SF-36 domains (p<0.05). Additionally, there was a significant association between comorbidities and SF-36 scores, including physical function, physical limitations, and emotional limitations (p<0.05). There was a significant association between ejection fraction and SF-36 scores, including physical function, role limitations due to physical health problems, vitality, social function, bodily pain and general health. However, no relationship was found between IMT and PPM implantation duration with SF-36 scores (p>0.05). Conclusion: We identified a relationship between age, gender, comorbidities, PPM lead location, and ventricular ejection fraction with the quality of life of patients following PPM implantation

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Although heart failure therapy has advanced, many patients still experience functional limitations, which impact their quality of life. OBJECTIVES: To explore the factors influencing heart failure patients' preferences for quality of life and longevity. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Adam Malik Hospital, Medan, Indonesia. The study was conducted from April 2023 to October 2023. A total of 143 chronic heart failure patients were included using purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews and the EuroQol five-dimension five-level questionnaire, EuroQol visual analogue scale, and the Time Trade-Off method. Statistical analysis was performed using multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS: Of the 143 patients, 66.4% preferred quality of life over longevity, and 47.3% were willing to trade two years of their lives for a better quality of life. The main factors associated with this preference were heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (OR: 3.554; 95% CI: 1.373 - 9.198; p: 0.009), diabetes mellitus (OR: 2.705; 95% CI: 1.108 - 6.602; p: 0.029), and lower visual analog scale scores (OR: 0.889; 95% CI: 0.848 - 0.932; p: 0.000). Our results also showed that patients in the longevity group had better ejection fractions, fewer rehospitalizations, and were less likely to have diabetes mellitus or chronic kidney failure compared to the quality of life group. CONCLUSION: The majority of heart failure patients choose quality of life over longevity, and this may be influenced by symptom burden and rehospitalization history. These findings emphasize the importance of patient-centered therapy focusing on symptom management and psychosocial support.
