Abstract

Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), a malignancy that is the most common form of leukemia found in children, accounting for about 30 percent of all pediatric cancer. The incidence of pneumonia is often found in children undergoing treatment for ALL. Complications of ALL and the side effects of its treatment can affect children’s quality of life. This study aimed to the effect of chest physiotherapy on  children's quality of life with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and pneumonia. Subjects and Method: This was a quasi-experiment study conducted at the pediatric ward of Dr. Moewardi Hospital Surakarta, from February to August 2021. A number of 60 children aged 2-18 years with lymphoblastic leukemia and pneumonia was selected for this study. These children were divided into two groups, (1) 30 children with chest physiotherapy (intervetion group) and (2) 30 children received standard care (control group). Patients and parents were asked to fill out a quality of life assessment using the PedsQLTM 4.0 generic module. Mean difference of quality of life before and after chest physiotherapy between intervention and control group was examined using independent t test. Results: After intervention of chest physio­therapy, quality of life score in the intervention group (Mean= 68.91; SD= 12.30) was higher than control group (Mean= 60.12; SD= 7.72), with p= 0.002. Conclusion: Chest physiotherapy improves the quality of life in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and pneumonia.

Abstract

Background: Anemia is one of the nutritional problems commonly encountered in pregnant women. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that approximately 37% of pregnant women worldwide experience anemia. This condition reduces the amount of oxygen and nutrient supply available in the mother's blood, which can disrupt the development and growth of the fetus. The growth disturbances in the fetus can be evaluated through anthropometric examinations, such as measuring the birth weight of the baby. This study aims to determine the relationship between hemoglobin levels in pregnant women and the incidence of low birth weight. Subjects and Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Dr. Moewardi Regional Hospital in Surakarta from May to July 2024. A total of 68 pragnant women selected for this study. The dependent variable was newborn baby weight. The independent variable was hemoglobin levels of pregnant women in the third trimester. The data obtained from patient medical records. The data analyzed using a multiple logistic regression.    Results: Low Hb levels (anemia) increase the incidence of LBW. Pregnant women with low Hb levels (anemia) have a 2.30 times greater risk of experiencing LBW compared to pregnant women with normal HB levels, but this result was not statistically significant (OR= 2.30; 95% CI = 0.14 to 38.63; p = 0.563). Conclusion: Low Hb levels increase the incidence of LBW, but it is not statistically.
