Abstract

Introduction: Hearing loss and tinnitus may occur in pilots due to exposure of the high noise level (ranges from 104-110 dB) generated by aircraft/helicopters. In addition, flying time, acoustic trauma, diabetes mellitus, hypertension and smoking are risk factors of hearing loss. Objective: to identify the factors associated with hearing loss in the crew of the Indonesian Army Aviation Center, SemarangMethods: in the cross-sectional research, 114 military helicopter aircrews aged 20-58 years, working for the Army Aviation Center in Semarang were included. The exclusion criteria were history of previous ear surgery, infection of the outer and middle ear, the use of ototoxic drugs (kanamycin, cisplatin and carboplatin). The level of hearing loss and tinitus was assessed by otoscopy and audiometry. Whereas, tinnitus was obtained from the history taking. Data were analyzed using chi-square test and fisher's exact and Yates’s correction.Results: One hundred and fourteen subjects (mean age of 26.54 + 4.72) were included. Several factors such as flight time (p = 0.698), acoustic trauma (p = 0.151), diabetes mellitus (p = 0.596), smoking (p = 0.222), hypertension (p = 0.356) were not associated with sensorineural hearing loss. Several factors such as flight time (p = 0.706), acoustic trauma (p = 0.5160), diabetes mellitus (p = 0.789), smoking (p = 0.495), hypertension (p = 0.112) were not associated with tinnitus.Conclusion: There is no association between flight time, acoustic trauma, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and smoking and hearing loss.

Abstract

Latar belakang : Kemoterapi bersifat sistemik dan non selektif sehingga tidak hanya sel kanker yang mati tetapi juga sel normal. National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) merekomendasikan Platinum-based sebagai rejimen kemoterapi untuk kanker kepala dan leher terutama Cisplatin dan Carboplatin. Cisplatin dan Carboplatin dapat menyebabkan efek samping mielosupresi. Tujuan : Membuktikan bahwa terdapat perbedaan kejadian mielosupresi pada penderita Kanker Kepala dan Leher (KKL) yang mendapat kemoterapi Cisplatin dan Carboplatin. Metode : Penelitian observasional dengan desain penelitian kohort prospektif di klinik THT-KL, bangsal dan bagian rekam medis instalasi rawat jalan/rawat inap RSUP Dr. Kariadi Semarang. Sampel ditentukan sebanyak 90 orang dan mendapat kemoterapi platinum based dengan salah satu komponen berupa Cisplatin atau Carboplatin sebanyak 3 seri. Analisis data dengan uji Pearson Chi-square dan Fisher’s exact test. Hasil : Subyek penelitian 90 orang, 45 orang mendapatkan Paclitaxel Cisplatin dan 45 orang mendapatkan regimen Paclitaxel Carboplatin. Hasil penelitian ini didapatkan 48,9% pasien stadium IV, histopatologi terbanyak WHO 3 (83,3%). Rerata usia terbanyak 50-59 tahun, dan diagnosis terbanyak pada KNF (66,7%). Secara keseluruhan kemoterapi seri I menunjukkan Carboplatin menyebabkan perubahan kadar hemoglobin (p=1,000) dan leukosit (p=0,292) dengan jumlah subyek lebih banyak dibanding Cisplatin. Sedangkan pada kemoterapi seri III, Carboplatin menyebabkan perubahan kadar hemoglobin (p=<0,023), leukosit (p=0,670), dan trombosit (p=1,000) lebih banyak dibandingkan Cisplatin. Simpulan : Kadar hemoglobin berbeda bermakna pada pasien yang mendapatkan kemoterapi Carboplatin seri III (p<0,023). Kata kunci : Kemoterapi Cisplatin/Carboplatin., kanker kepala dan leher, mielosupresi. Background : Chemotherapy is systemic and non-selective so it often results in not only cancer cells dying but normal cells will also die. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) recommends Platinum-based chemotherapy regimens for head and neck cancer, especially Cisplatin and Carboplatin. Cisplatin and Carboplatin chemotherapy can cause one of the side effects of myelosuppression. Myelosuppression is a decrease in cell production of leukocytes, erythrocytes, and / or platelets. Objective : Proving the difference incidence of myelosuppression in head and neck cancer patients receiving Cisplatin and Carboplatin chemotherapy.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Oral mucositis is an injury of normal mucosal tissue with an acute inflammation of the oral, tongue, and pharyngeal mucosa after exposure to chemo-radiotherapy. Post chemoradiotherapy oral mucositis is commonly accompanied by painful swallowing or odynophagia. Povidone iodine 1% is an antiseptic mouthwash that widely used to prevent infections in the oral cavity. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of 1% povidone iodine mouthwash on the incidence of oral mucositis in patients with head and neck malignancy at Dr. Kariadi General Hospital Semarang.    METHOD: This study was single random blinded experimental study, with total samples of 44 patients with head and neck malignancy after chemoradiotherapy. The samples divided into treatment group of 22 samples with 1% povidone iodine mouthwash and control group of 22 samples with NaCl 0.9% recruited using single random sampling at Dr. Kariadi Semarang General Central Hospital in 2022. The effect of 1% povidone iodine mouthwash on the incidence of oral mucositis and odynophagia was analyzed using the Fischer Exact and Mann Whitney test. RESULT: In the 1% povidone iodine mouthwash group day 15th, 21 patients (95.5%) were found without mucositis and 1 patient (4.5%) with mucositis oral grade I. In the 1% povidone iodine mouthwash group, 21 people (4.5%) were found without odynophagia and 1 people (4.5%) had odynophagia. There was an association between oral mucositis and odynophagia on povidone iodine 1% group (p < 0.05).        CONCLUSION: Povidone iodine 1% mouthwash can affect the incidence of oral mucositis in patients with head and neck carcinoma. Povidone iodine 1% mouthwash can reduce the incidence of oral mucositis and odynophagia compared to placebo in patients with head and neck carcinoma.
