Abstract

Introduction: Aphasia is understood as difficulty in understanding or producing language caused by disorders involving the brain hemispheres. Early assessment of aphasia is very important to prevent the emergence of telegraphic speech styles, improve welfare, independence, social participation, quality of life, reduce length of stay and care costs, but there is little literature on this subject, especially in stroke patients. Purpose: This study is to provide an overview of the assessment of aphasia in stroke patients. Methods: The design of a case study involving 6 participants and data collection was carried out by conducting an assessment using the Language Aphasia Screening Test (LAST) instrument which was monitored for 3 days, including monitoring errors for naming images, monitoring mismatches repeating words and sentences, monitoring spontaneous pronunciation, monitoring image comprehension, monitoring comprehension of verbal instructions.Results: A total of 6 ischemic stroke patients were found wrong in repeating words and sentences. Conclusion: In aphasic stroke patients all language modalities are impaired, ranging from spontaneous speech, repetition, naming, language comprehension, reading and writing

Abstract

Introduction: Sepsis is a serious complication and major cause of mortality among intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Serum lactate is commonly used as a prognostic biochemical marker for sepsis in critically ill patients. Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between serum lactate levels, sepsis incidence, and clinical outcomes in ICH patients in ICU of Dr. Kariadi Hospital. Methods: A retrospective observational cohort study was performed on 30 ICH patients hospitalized in the ICU during 2024. Data normality tested using Shapiro-Wilk; non-normal data were analysed by Mann-Whitney U, categorical data by Chi-square test. Results: Among 30 patients (12 males, 18 females), 20 had hyperlactatemia (>2 mmol/L). The hyperlactatemia group had higher sepsis incidence (90% vs. 50%, p=0.014), MODS (70% vs. 30%, p=0.037), high NLR (>8; 80% vs. 40%, p=0.028), longer ventilator (>8 days; 75% vs. 40%, p=0.007), and LOS (>8 days; 75% vs. 40%, p=0.007). Discussion: Routine serum lactate monitoring in ICH ICU patients is recommended for early detection and prognosis of sepsis. Larger prospective studies are needed to validate these findings.
