Abstract

Introduction. Impaired mobility in the elderly is a condition of limited movement in the function of one or more of the body's extremities which can affect the independence of the elderly in carrying out daily activities physically and psychologically. Objectives. To determine the description of pain level in elderly patients with immobilization history. Methods. Descriptive research with a retrospective approach, examining the medical records of elderly patients with immobilization history who were treated at Ruang Anggrek RSU Negara during 2022-2023. Data analysis to calculate the percentage of each pain level in elderly patients with immobilization. The tool used to measure pain was the numerical rating scale (NRS). Results. The number of elderly patients with immobilization history treated at Ruang Anggrek RSU Negara during 2022-2023 was 105 patients, most of whom were female (51.4%) and in the age group 60-69 years old (47.6%). The most frequent comorbidity was hypertension (20.0%) with myalgia (86.7%). Based on pain level, it was found that 67.6% had mild pain, 29.5% moderate pain, and 2.9% severe pain. Mild pain was more often accompanied by myalgia (91.55%). Severe pain was more often accompanied by arthralgia (66.67%) and with ≥2 comorbidities (66.67%). Conclusions. The pain level in elderly patients with immobilization history was mostly mild, most of them were female with comorbid hypertension accompanied by myalgia. This mild pain was related to the most common cause which was muscle pain (myalgia). Joint pain (arthralgia) tends to cause more severe pain. Hypertension tends to worsen the course of pain

Abstract

Introduction. Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious respiratory system infection caused by a new type of Coronavirus. COVID-19 infection can cause mild, moderate, or severe symptoms in the form of fever, tachypnea, severe respiratory distress, and hypoxemia. Oxygen saturation is an indicator of oxygenation status. Hypoxemia is an important prognostic indicator of hospital length of stay and death. Objectives. To determine the description of oxygen saturation in COVID-19 patients during treatment in the Ruang Isolasi RSU Negara. Methods. Descriptive study with a retrospective approach, to examine the medical records of COVID-19 patients with moderate and severe symptoms. Results. The number of COVID-19 patients treated in Ruang Isolasi RSU Negara during the 2020-2022 study was 384 patients. Most of them had moderate symptoms (70.05%). SpO2 values <93% were found more frequently in men (51.11%) and in the age group 41-60 years (49.63%). Comorbid DM was more commonly found at SpO2 values <93% (23.02%) and pneumonia was more common at SpO2 values <93% (97.21%). Conclusions. Patients with SpO2 values <93% were more likely to be male patients, age group 41-60 years, with comorbid DM and pneumonia. Women's immune systems are superior to men's due to hormonal protection. Hypertension and diabetes mellitus are low-grade inflammation (systemic inflammatory processes) and cause more severe organ damage. An increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines in serum is associated with inflammation in the lungs, causing pneumonia.
