Abstract

Background: Hospitals in Indonesia implemented several types of wards, from class III, class II, class I, and VIP. An indicator for assessing efficiency and quality of care is length of stay (LOS). Heart failure has become a worldwide issue with a high burden of medical costs. Objective: This study aimed to calculate the average LOS of heart failure patients and to identify their associations with the type of hospital ward. Methods: This cross-sectional study extracted data from the hospital information system to gather information on heart failure patients from 2021 to 2024 at PKU Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta Hospital, using purposive sampling. The data was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results: The average LOS of all heart failure patients was 4,9 days (±2,9) with a median of 4,0 days (±3,0). Based on the type of wards, average and median LOS in class III were 5 days and 4 days; in class II were 4,2 days and 4 days; in class I were 5,9 days and 4,5 days; and VIP was 3,6 days and 3 days. There were no differences in LOS between class III and non-class III in heart failure patients with a p-value of 0,171. Conclusion: The average LOS of heart failure patients was 4,9 days with no differences between them and the type of ward.

Abstract

Introduction: The Indonesian Ministry of Health has released a list of the most diagnosed non-communicable diseases in 2023, and hypertension, or high blood pressure, was in the first position. One of the risk factors that cause an increase in the incidence of hypertension is patient non-compliance in implementing the therapy program. Family support is one of the factors that has a significant contribution as a patient booster in influencing patient compliance. The family has an important role in the process of supervision, maintenance, and prevention of hypertension complications. Methods: This study is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional approach. Sampling was carried out using the total sampling technique at Tepus 2 Puskesmas. The total is 43 hypertensive patients participating in Prolanis. Data collection was carried out by distributing family support questionnaires and Morisky Medication Compliance Scale (MMAS-8) questionnaires. Bivariate tests were performed using Chi Square and Spearman's rho tests. Results: Univariate results showed that most respondents had sufficient family support, as many as 28 people (65.1%), and a high level of compliance with taking medication, as many as 25 people (58.1%). From the bivariate results obtained, a p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05) and an r-value of 0.478. Conclusion: There is a relationship between family support and adherence to medication compliance in hypertensive patients participating in Prolanis at Tepus 2 Puskesmas in 2023 with sufficient relationship strength and positive correlation (unidirectional); the better the family support.
