Abstract

Basic life support (BLS) is a first-aid measure performed to restore vital organ functions in cardiac or respiratory arrest patients. This research was conducted on the students of the Veterinary Medicine Faculty in the 2018th and 2019th entry years from November 15th 30th, 2021. This study was a descriptive observational study using a cross-sectional research design. Two hundred two respondents in this study were selected by stratified random sampling. Data from respondents were collected using an online questionnaire via Google Forms. The results of this study indicated that most respondents were 20 years old (46.5%), female (65.8%), and the number of respondents from each generation was the same. The data analysis of the respondents' basic life support showed that they possessed a minimal level of knowledge (60.9%), good attitude (66.8%), and good awareness (56.9%). According to these findings, most students had positive attitudes and awareness of basic life support. The aspect of knowledge about basic life support practices among these students falls into the poor category; therefore, there is a need to step up the socialization and training process.

Abstract

Postoperative recurrence remains a major challenge in stage II–III colorectal cancer (CRC) despite curative-intent surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has emerged as a promising biomarker for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and for recurrence surveillance. This systematic review evaluated the prognostic utility of postoperative ctDNA in stage II–III CRC. Methods: A systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA guidelines, using PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar to identify studies published between 2015 and 2026. Eligible studies involved adults with stage II–III CRC undergoing curative-intent surgery and evaluated postoperative ctDNA in relation to recurrence or survival outcomes. Eight studies involving 1,557 patients were included. Postoperative ctDNA positivity was consistently associated with significantly increased recurrence risk and inferior oncologic outcomes, with reported hazard ratios ranging from 3.8 to 50.76. Serial ctDNA monitoring enabled recurrence detection approximately 5–10 months earlier than conventional imaging or carcinoembryonic antigen surveillance. Most studies demonstrated that ctDNA-guided management reduced the use of adjuvant chemotherapy without compromising recurrence-free survival. Postoperative ctDNA demonstrates strong prognostic value as a biomarker of MRD in stage II–III CRC and may facilitate more individualized postoperative surveillance and treatment strategies.
