Abstract

Thousands of patients around the world die every day due to infection when getting health care. This is due to the transmission of pathogenic micro bacteria from the hands of health workers during receiving health care. Hand hygiene is the most important aspect to prevent the transmission of pathogenic micro bacteria and prevent Hospital Acquired Infections (HAIs). Awareness of hand hygiene in health workers is a fundamental behavior in efforts to prevent cross-infection. The purpose of this study was to conduct an evaluation of compliance with hand hygiene at the Hemodialysis Unit nurses at the Haji Public Hospital, Surabaya. This type of research is a descriptive study and observation using a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques in this study were interviews with nurses of the Hemodialysis Unit, and hand hygiene audits. The research instrument used a hand hygiene knowledge questionnaire, Blood Stream Infection (BSI) knowledge questionnaire, and a hand hygiene audit form prepared by WHO. The population in this study were all nurses in the Hemodialysis Unit of the Haji Public Hospital, Surabaya, amounting to 11 people. The results of this study found that the compliance of the hand hygiene nurses of the Hemodialysis Unit was 35%. The compliance rate is still lacking and does not meet the standards set by the Infection Control and Prevention Program (IPC) of the Haji Public Hospital, Surabaya which is 100% and still does not meet the WHO compliance standard of 40%. The low hand hygiene compliance rate is caused by the low participation of basic PPI training and the lack of availability of hand hygiene facilities in the Hemodialysis Unit of the Haji Public Hospital, Surabaya. Suggestions from this research are to do on the job training on how to do proper hand hygiene and improve hand hygiene facilities in the Hemodialysis Unit.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis Preventive Therapy (TPT) is important in TBC control and elimination strategies at the individual and community levels. However, few studies have systematically mapped developing scientific themes and trends related to TPT, primarily through bibliometric analyses. Therefore, a comprehensive bibliometric study is needed to identify key research foci and gaps in the current TPT knowledge pool. Purpose: This study aimed to identify global research trends in TPT as a preventive strategy to reduce TBC incidence. Methods: This study used a systematic literature review approach and bibliometric analysis using Scopus and PubMed databases through the Publish or Perish (PoP) platform, publications from 2010 to 2024. The initial search yielded 266 articles, which were screened using Mendeley for abstracts and keywords, resulting in 109 relevant publications. Bibliometric analyses were then conducted using VOSviewer version 1.6.20. Results: IPT (Isoniazid Preventive Therapy) has a close relationship with Preventive therapy, tuberculosis, child, contact, and HIV. Other results also show that the number of publications discussing TPT from 2020 to 2024 has decreased from 23 to 2, and the latest research topics related to TPT were only found in 2019. Conclusion: Publications related to TPT from 2020-2024 continue to decline; therefore, it is necessary to revitalize research related to TPT, especially by exploring issues that have not been widely discussed, such as the implementation of TPT in high-risk groups other than children and PLHIV, such as people with chronic diseases, the elderly, and populations with limited access to health services.

Abstract

Background: Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever remains a significant public health concern in Sumenep Regency, with cases and fatalities reported annually. In 2023, both the incidence rate (27.74/100,000 population) and the case fatality rate (1.96%) exceeded the national targets (IR ≤10; CFR ≤0.6%). Therefore, evaluating the dengue surveillance system is essential to assess its performance and support effective control measures. Purpose: This study evaluates the dengue surveillance system in Sumenep Regency in 2023 based on surveillance system attributes to provide recommendations for improvement. Methods: The study was conducted at a public health center (puskesmas) and the Regency Health Office, involving 17 informants, including surveillance officers and DHF program managers. Data were collected through interviews, document reviews, and observations using questionnaires and sheets. Analysis was based on surveillance system attributes aligned with Indonesia’s DHF prevention and control guidelines, with results presented in tables and narratives. Results: The surveillance system demonstrated good data stability and timeliness, but remains complex, inflexible, has low user acceptance, is not yet representative, and is not yet sensitive. Conclusion: The dengue surveillance system in Sumenep needs improvements in simplicity, user acceptance, representativeness, sensitivity, and data quality. Efforts should simplify processes, integrate active and passive surveillance, standardize procedures, and strengthen coordination to improve system effectiveness.

Abstract

Background: The SARS-CoV-2 mutation in the bodies of COVID-19 patients is a critical factor for health. Notably, in October 2022, the disease recovery rate in Sidoarjo (96.05%) was lower than the national rate (97.30%). Purpose: This study aims to identify the recovery time and its influencing factors in COVID-19 patients in Sidoarjo. Methods: The life-table method was used to conduct a survival analysis on data from the NAR COVID-19 dashboard in Sidoarjo from January 3 to August 4, 2022, which involved 20,662 respondents. Age group, sex, treatment status, and testing purpose were analyzed. Results: The majority of COVID-19 patients were females (50.30%) aged 26-<46 years (46.24%). Most patients (64.74%) chose to self-isolate, and 63.34% were screened as COVID-19 positive. On average, patients recovered within seven days of diagnosis. The Wilcoxon (Gehan) statistical test yielded a p-value of less than 0.001 for all factors at a significance level of 0.05, indicating a significant difference in the survival time distribution. The age group with the shortest median recovery time was 6-<12 years at 7.03 days, while males had a median recovery time of at 7.66 days. Patients who self-isolated had a median recovery time of 7.16 days, and those who were tested for close contact purposes had a median recovery time of 7.65 days. Conclusion: The median recovery time for COVID-19 patients post-diagnosis was seven days. There was a significant difference in recovery time among the COVID-19 patients based on age group, sex, treatment status, and testing purpose.
