Abstract

Pruritus, or itching, is a common symptom in seniors that has a significant impact on their quality of life. Primary skin disorders such as xerosis, atopic dermatitis, and scabies, as well as systemic diseases such as cancer, chronic renal failure, cholestasis, hyperthyroidism, diabetes mellitus, iron deficiency anemia, and certain medications, can cause this condition. Chronic pruritus, which is common in individuals over 60 years of age, can cause discomfort, sleep disturbances, and psychological stress. This activity uses the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) methodology to screen for pruritus intensity in the elderly in St. Anna. One individual (2.4%) reported mild pruritus, while 12 individuals (29.3%) reported severe pruritus. Routine assessment using the 12-PSS provides important information for managing pruritus in the elderly, meeting clinical and research needs, and improving patient care and quality of life.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Skin hydration is influenced by various factors. Blood glucose levels are also known to affect the protective function of the skin. This cross-sectional study aims to investigate the profile of skin hydration status and its correlation with blood glucose levels among subjects at RW 08 Cipondoh. Skin hydration status measurements were done using an Over The Counter (OTC) skin analyzer. Blood glucose levels were measured using Point of Care Testing (POCT) Out of 101 respondents, the average age was 51.38 years with 75.2% of the respondents were female. The mean blood glucose was 122.71 mg/dL. The mean oil and water hydration were 22.99% and 42.96%, respectively. The data showed a negative correlation between blood glucose and water hydration, with a correlation coefficient power of 0.319 significantly, and between blood glucose and oil hydration, with 0.236 significantly. This study concludes that higher blood glucose levels was associated with worse skin hydration status.  Keywords : Blood glucose, Hydration Status ABSTRAK Kelembaban kulit dipengaruhi oleh banyak faktor.

Abstract

ABSTRACT The increasing elderly population increases the prevalence of health problems associated with the aging of the elderly. Aging causes the alteration of the skin function as a barrier in the elderly, which affects the skin hydration and can be influenced by various factors. Decreasing skin hydration causes dry skin. Dry skin can increase the risk and severity of pruritic skin, which is one of the most common skin problems in the elderly. Pruritus triggers the elders to scratch their skin and could result in opened wounds, which could lead to infection and a lower quality of life. To get a description of the skin hydration along with its risk factors’ data distribution (such as age, total daily liquid consumption, daily moisturizer usage frequency, and hot water usage for bathing) on the elders with and without pruritus, as well as on each of the pruritus severity levels of the elders at Sasana Tresna Werdha RIA Pembangunan Nursing Home.  This research used an observational-descriptive approach using a cross-sectional method. In total, there are 41 elders at Sasana Tresna Werdha RIA Pembangunan Nursing Home who participated in this research. The sampling technique used was total sampling. The data were collected through interviews using 12-items pruritus severity scale questionnaires and measurements with Large LCD BIA Skin Analyzer for skin hydration values. The data were analyzed using a univariate analysis. Crosstabs will be made between variables to be observed in more detail about the possibilities of interrelationships between the variables. From the 41 elders at Sasana Tresna Werdha RIA Pembangunan Nursing Home, there were 16 elders (39%) without pruritus and 25 elders (61%) with pruritus, which composed of 6 elders (24%) with mild pruritus, 15 elders (60%) with moderate pruritus, and 4 elders (16%) with severe pruritus. The mean of skin hydration of the elders without pruritus was 52.7% and with pruritus was 44.5%. Among the elders with pruritus, the mean of skin hydration of them with mild pruritus was 48%, moderate pruritus was 45.5%, and severe pruritus was 35.6%. This data showed that the population of elders with pruritus was increasing along with an increase in age. Our data also showed that the majority of the elders had a total daily liquid consumption of less than eight glasses and it was increasing along with an increase in pruritus severity level. Further, the data showed that the majority of elders with pruritus never used daily moisturizer and always used hot water for daily bathing. The mean of skin hydration of the elders without pruritus was 52.7% and that of the elders with pruritus was 44.5%. The lowering of the skin hydration level was in parallel with the increase of the pruritus severity of the elders. There was an increase in the population of the elders with pruritus along with an increase in age. The percentage of elders with a total daily liquid consumption of less than eight glasses was increasing along with an increase in pruritus severity levels. The majority of the elders with pruritus never used daily moisturizer and always used hot water for daily bathing. Keywords: Skin Hydration, Pruritus Severity Level, Elderly, Age, Liquid Consumption, Moisturizer Usage, Hot Water

Abstract

ABSTRACT Skin is the largest organ in the human body and plays various important roles. Skin characteristics, including pigmentation, hydration, texture, and various other parameters, differ for each individual. Skin properties are influenced by various parameters, one of which is the body mass index (BMI). This cross-sectional study aimed to determine the description of skin hydration status and its correlation with BMI, among subjects in RW 08 Cipondoh. Skin hydration status was measured using the over the counter (OTC) skin analyzer. Body mass index was calculated and measured based on standard procedures. Out of 101 respondents, the average age was 51.38 years with 75.2% of respondents being female. The mean BMI was 26.12 kg/m², predominantly falling into obesity level 1 (41.6%). The mean oil and water hydration were 22.99% and 42.96%, respectively. The Spearman statistical test results showed a negative correlation between body mass index and water hydration, with a correlation coefficient power of 0.498 significantly, and oil hydration, with 0.107 insignificantly. This study concludes that the higher the BMI, the worse is the individual's skin hydration status. Keywords: Body Mass Index, Hydration Status  ABSTRAK Kulit merupakan organ terbesar dalam tubuh manusia dan memiliki berbagai peranan penting. Karakteristik kulit mencakup pigmen, hidrasi, tekstur, dan berbagai parameter lainnya berbeda-beda pada setiap individu. Sifat kulit tergantung pada berbagai parameter, salah satunya adalah indeks massa tubuh (IMT). Penelitian potong lintang ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran status hidrasi kulit dan korelasinya dengan IMT di RW 08 Cipondoh. Pengukuran status hidrasi kulit dilakukan dengan menggunakan alat over the counter (OTC) skin analyzer. Indeks masa tubuh dihitung dan diukur berdasar prosedur standar. Dari 101 responden, rata-rata usia adalah 51,38 tahun dengan 75,2% responden adalah perempuan. Rerata IMT didapatkan sebesar 26,12 kg/m2, didominasi oleh obesitas tingkat 1 (41,6%). Rerata hidrasi sebum dan air, masing-masing sebesar  22,99% dan 42,96%. Hasil uji statistik Spearman menunjukan hasil korelasi negatif antara indeks masa tubuh dengan hidrasi air dengan kekuatan korelasi 0,498 secara signifikan dan hidrasi sebum sebesar 0,107 secara tidak signifikan. Penelitian ini menyatakan bahwa semakin tinggi nilai IMT, maka semakin menurun status hidrasi kulit seseorang. Kata Kunci: Kadar Hidrasi, Indeks Masa Tubuh
