Abstract

Lowered consciousness is a life-threatening condition that necessitates prompt assessment and first aid. One crucial method for addressing such emergencies is the primary survey, which aims to identify and treat life-threatening conditions quickly. Pasar Petisah, one of the largest and busiest markets in Medan, is a high-risk location for such emergencies due to its crowded nature. Therefore, the community at Pasar Petisah needs to have a strong understanding of the primary survey procedure. This study is a descriptive cross-sectional analysis that uses primary data collected through questionnaires. The sample size consists of 97 subjects, selected using non-probability sampling techniques. The results indicate that among the 97 participants, only 3 (3.1%) demonstrated a good level of knowledge about the primary survey, 41 (42.3%) had a sufficient level of knowledge, and 53 (54.6%) had a lacking level of knowledge. Regarding readiness to perform the primary survey, 61 individuals (62.9%) reported feeling prepared, 23 individuals (23.7%) were doubtful, and 13 individuals (13.4%) felt unprepared. Overall, while the community at Pasar Petisah generally lacks adequate knowledge about conducting a primary survey in cases of lowered consciousness, a majority still express readiness to perform the primary survey in emergency situations.

Abstract

Background: With the advancement of technology, access to information about acne vulgaris has become easier. Social media has become a key platform for influencers and doctors to educate the public about acne, which often leads acne sufferers to use social media as a reference for understanding the condition and treatment options. As a result, many individuals choose to practice self-medication based on information obtained from social media. Purpose: This study aims to examine the impact of social media on self-medication and the treatment of acne vulgaris. Methods: This is an analytical cross-sectional study conducted among high school students. The sample was selected using consecutive sampling. Data was collected through a questionnaire that assessed social media usage, self-medication practices, and treatment outcomes. Result: Among the 92 respondents who participated in this study, the following results were found: 18 respondents had a high level of social media usage, 54 respondents had a moderate level, and 20 respondents had a low level. In addition, 64 respondents expressed interest in self-medication, while 28 respondents were not interested in self-medication. The results of the acne treatment of 64 people interested in self-medication showed that eight people had significant improvement in self-medication results, 52 people had slight improvement, and four people had no improvement. The bivariate analysis shows that social media influences self-medication but does not affect treatment outcomes. Conclusion: Social media influences self-medication but does not affect the treatment outcomes of acne vulgaris.

Abstract

Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a rare autosomal recessive genodermatosis characterised by photosensitivity, dry skin, pigmentary abnormalities, premature skin aging, and skin cancers at an early age. This case report aims to alert health professionals about this disease, considering the rarity of the disease and the need for an early diagnosis of patients with XP. A 4-year-old boy was referred to our department with multiple painful ulcerated masses over his head and face, which had developed over the past two years. At the age of 6 months, the patient started to develop hyperpigmented spots of numerous sizes on his face, and gradually spread to the other sun-exposed areas of his body. He also had dry skin, photophobia, redness, and watery eyes. Dermatological examination showed multiple ulcerated erythematous nodules at the temporal and frontotemporal region; multiple scaly, hyperpigmented macules, papules, and cutaneous horns at the facial region; multiple hypopigmented and hyperpigmented macules, generalised distributed, predominantly over the sun-exposed areas. A biopsy examination from one of the nodules showed keratinising squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The patient was diagnosed with xeroderma pigmentosum and was treated with multidisciplinary assessment involving dermatology, paediatric, oncology surgery, ophthalmology, and otolaryngology. The diagnosis in this patient is made clinically based on history taking, physical examination, and confirmation of malignancy from biopsy. Early diagnosis of XP is crucial for decreasing the development of neoplasms, which could improve the patient’s quality of life.

Abstract

Exfoliative dermatitis (ED) is defined as diffuse erythema and scaling of the skin involving more than 90% of the total body skin surface area. It is a reaction pattern and cutaneous manifestation of a myriad of underlying ailments, including psoriasis and eczema, or a reaction to the consumption of certain drugs. Though some experts believe it does not pose a significant risk of death, erythroderma is a potentially life-threatening condition that requires proper diagnosis, identification of underlying etiology, and management. Several factors have been implicated as triggers for erythroderma and can be grouped into several general categories, including preexisting dermatoses, drugs, and malignancies. Drugs Involved in ED, one of the drugs that cause it is cardiac drugs such as captopril. Captopril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors containing a sulfhydryl group and has occasionally been implicated in complex immunological diseases, this chemical group has been considered the culprit of allergic reactions to captopril. Histopathologic examination is important to exclude differential diagnosis. Management of ED involves combining symptomatic relief with addressing the underlying etiology and potential systemic complications. In patient hospitalization is required in acute cases.
