Abstract

Background: Indonesian health-care workers (HCWs) are at the front liners battling against the Coronavirus-2019 disease (COVID-19) pandemic since March 2020 and must protect themselves by hand hygiene and using personal protective equipment (PPE). Hand hygiene and the use of PPE are associated with an adverse skin reactions. This study aimed to find out the prevalence, characteristics, and risk factors for adverse skin reactions to hand hygiene and PPE among HCWs in Indonesia during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A cross-sectional online questionnaire-based survey among HCWs in Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital Palembang on April 1-30, 2022. The data were collected, including demographic characteristics, occupational-related characteristics, and adverse skin reactions. Results: The study included 134 respondents, the majority of the respondents were female (57,5%), with a mean age was 31,18 ± 4,89 years old. Adverse skin reactions were reported only on 16,4% of respondents. Hands (40,9%) were the most common site affected. The highest symptom and lesion were itch (54,5%), erythema (59,1%) and scales (59,1%). There was a significant association between adverse skin reactions to hand hygiene (p <0,001) and PPE (p = 0,001) before and during the pandemic. However, adverse skin reactions were not associated with increased frequency of hand hygiene and duration of PPE worn. History of pre-existing inflammatory skin condition is the risk factor for adverse skin reactions to hand hygiene and PPE. Conclusion: Adverse skin reactions to hand hygiene and PPE are increasing among Indonesian HCWs during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Background: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease mediated by T lymphocytes. IL-17 or IL-22 plays an important role in the chronic inflammatory process. Secukinumab is an effective biological agent therapy with a molecular target, IL-17A. This study aimed to describe PASI improvement and safety of using secukinumab in psoriasis patients at the Dermatology and Venereology Clinic Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital Palembang. Methods: This study was a retrospective, descriptive-analytic study. The inclusion criteria of this study were all medical record data of patients diagnosed with cutaneous psoriasis through anamnesis, clinical and histopathology examination, treated with secukinumab from January 2018 to December 2020. Results: Psoriasis patients with secukinumab therapy were 15 people. The number of male patients was 8 people, the mean age (+ SD) was 40.4, + 12.34 years, and the age range was 19-64 years. A family history of psoriasis was present in 2 patients (13.4%). Psoriasis vulgaris was the most prevalent type of psoriasis and was treated with secukinumab in 8 patients (53.3%). Another type was pustular psoriasis (20%) and erythrodermic psoriasis (26,7%). The triggers of exacerbations obtained in this study include occupation, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, smoking, and infections. PASI 75 was achieved by 13 patients (86.7%) at week 12, and all patients achieved DLQI<5. There were no adverse events during the use of secukinumab. Conclusion: The improvement of PASI and DLQI scores were achieved at week 12 in accordance with previous studies. Risk factors do not reduce the therapeutic effect of secukinumab in achieving PASI 75.

Abstract

Background: Pemphigus foliaceus (PF) includes lesions on the skin, generally without involving the mucosa. Wounds in PF arise on the outer layer of the superficial skin, but if left untreated, the wound will not heal and will multiply. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) containing a variety of different growth factors can be used in wound care. This study was at a time to describe autologous PRP therapy in the treatment of excoriated erosional wounds in patients with pemphigus foliaceus. Case presentation: A woman, 35 years old, married, a housewife living in suburban, comes to the emergency department with complaints of blisters accompanied by pain in the face, body, and back which has been increasing since 1 month ago. Examination of the skin showed palpebral blisters on the eyelids of the left and right eyes. In the anterior and posterior trunk regions, proximal 1/3rd and suprapubic extremities, there are hyperpigmented erythematous macules, multiple, nummular-plaque, discrete, partially confluent, with white to brownish scales, single layer and exfoliative. In the posterior trunk region, Nikolsky's sign was positive. Laboratory evaluation showed an increase in leukocytes and neutrophils. ANA examination showed negative results and anti-ds-DNA 54.91. Management of pemphigus in the form of topical and systemic treatment. Topical management in the form of an open compress with 0.9% NaCl solution, Intrasite gel®, and closed Cutimed sorbact® for erosion and excoriation. Topical PRP was administered on the 7th day of treatment. On the 14th day after treatment with topical PRP, the patient is allowed to go home with the repair of lesions throughout the region. Conclusion: PRP therapy in cases of pemphigus foliaceus is very useful in improving the clinical condition of the patient.
