Abstract

Background: Bedridden patients were highly susceptible to oral complications due to prolonged immobilization, impaired oromotor function, and limited capacity for self-care. The accumulation of debris and reduced salivary flow can become pathological, leading to infection in the oral cavity. This case report aims to describe two cases of medico-compromised bedridden inpatient highlighting the importance of optimizing oral health care. Case Report: Two bedridden inpatients were reffered to Oral Medicine Division, Universitas Indonesia hospital from internist. First case, was a 59-year-old female inpatient with stage IV breast carcinoma and bone metastasis. The second case, was a 68-year-old male inpatient with acute encephalopathy and multiple comorbidities. Both patients shows decreased consciousness, severe oral dryness with high Clinical Oral Dryness Scores (CODS), poor oral hygiene with a abundant plaque and debris, inflamed periodontal tissue and lip lesion. Oral health care maintenance by cleaning and wipping teeth and oral mucosa using sterile gauze moistened in 0.9% NaCl was done and demonstrated to caregiver to be done daily. Petroleum Jelly was perscribe for  the lips lesions. Both patients showed improved mucosal hydration, debris reduction, and greater comfort.  Discussion: Oral cavity infection is one of the factors that plays an important role in accomplishing the successful overall treatment while bedridden patients had increased risks of oral infection due to limited abilities. Cleaning and wipping with 0,9% NaCl was a safe choice for patient with high risk of aspiration, had a mild antiseptic properties and maintain mucosal hydration. Conclusion: Optimization of oral care in bedridden patients begin with the selection of oral health care maintenance methods by considering the patient's systemic condition.

Abstract

Achieving and sustaining low disease activity (LDA) and remission in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains challenging. This study examined the rates and predictors of LDA/remission and sustained LDA/remission in an Indonesian RA cohort. A retrospective study of newly diagnosed adult patients attending a rheumatology clinic in 2020-2021 was conducted. Patients were followed for 12 months to evaluate achievement of LDA/remission, defined as DAS28-ESR ≤3.2, and those meeting the target were observed for an additional 12 months to evaluate sustained LDA/remission. Cox regression was used to identify predictors of time to LDA/remission and loss of LDA/remission. Of 166 participants, 91 (54.8%) achieved LDA/remission, with a median time of 10 months. Among these, 39 (41.8%) maintained LDA/remission for 12 months. The median time to loss of LDA/remission was also 10 months. In multivariate analysis, no baseline variables (age, sex, rheumatoid factor (RF) positivity, disease activity, obesity, or disease duration) predicted achieving or sustaining LDA/remission. In this Indonesian cohort, over half of patients reached LDA/remission within 12 months. However, fewer than half sustained it over the following year, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring and timely treatment adjustments, even after remission is achieved.
