Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of nebulizer disinfection contaminated with Klebsiella pneumoniae using one of the materials widely used in hospitals, chlorhexidine. The research method used in vitro experiments. K. pneumoniae was isolated from hospital samples and then multiplied for 24 hours. The nebulizer jet was then intentionally contaminated with K. pneumoniae and disinfected using chlorhexidine solution at various concentrations. The effectiveness of the disinfection process was then assessed using culture and calculated based on the number of colonies formed after the disinfection process. The results showed that chlorhexidine was effective in significantly reducing the number of K. pneumoniae colonies, especially at a concentration of 2.5%. The use of chlorhexidine as a routine disinfectant in pneumatic nebulizers could be an effective strategy in the prevention of VAP, thus improving safety in critically ill patients. This study supports the use of chlorhexidine as part of a disinfection protocol to reduce the incidence of VAP caused by K. pneumoniae. In conclusion, chlorhexidine is effective in reducing the number of K. pneumoniae colonies so that it can be a disinfectant to prevent Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP).

Abstract

Introduction: Quick and appropriate help when met an unconscious person is  important to providing Basic Life Support (BLS). Knowledge and Attitude about BLS are very important in order to provide quick assistance of cardiac arrest. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of providing health education with video on people's knowledge and Attitude about BLS. Methods: The study used a quasy-experimental design by intervening in a group and then observed. This research was conducted on the community who became Kader in Perak, Surabaya. Total sample of 64 respondents obtained through total sampling technique. The independent variable is video-based health education. Dependent variable is knowledge and attitude about BLS. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed by the Wilcoxon sign test and Mann whitney u test with a significance of p < 0.05. Results: The results showed an increase in knowledge and Attitude in the intervention group after being given educational videos with (p = 0.001) and Attitude with (p = 0.006). The results of the test with Mann Whitney showed that there was an average difference between the intervention group and the control group with significant results in knowledge (p=0.000), attitude (p=0.000). Conclusion: To improve people's knowledge about basic life support can be obtained from electronic media regarding knowledge about basic life support. It is hoped that it can provide knowledge of basic life support and can apply or assist in life-threatening emergencies in the home environment. It is hoped that the results of this research can be used as a reference for further research by adding other variables and before the research, researchers are expected to prepare research instruments according to the standards of the instruments that will be used, such as: phantom CPR according to standards.
