Abstract

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive chronic lung disease characterized by persistent airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. COPD is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, strongly associated with smoking and environmental exposures. Acute exacerbations of COPD significantly worsen quality of life and increase hospitalization and mortality rates.Objective: To report a case of severe COPD exacerbation and review its management according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) guidelines.Methods: This descriptive observational case report describes a 41-year-old male patient with severe COPD exacerbation admitted to Cut Meutia General Hospital. Data were obtained from history taking, physical examination, diagnostic investigations, and evaluation of treatment response during hospitalization. Results: The patient presented with worsening dyspnea and productive cough. A history of heavy smoking and occupational dust exposure were identified as major risk factors. Physical examination revealed bilateral wheezing and prolonged expiration. Chest radiography supported the diagnosis of COPD. The patient was diagnosed with severe COPD exacerbation and treated with oxygen therapy, bronchodilators, systemic corticosteroids, antibiotics, and non-pharmacological measures. Gradual clinical improvement was observed. Conclusion: COPD exacerbation is a serious condition requiring prompt and comprehensive management. Early recognition of risk factors and guideline-based treatment can improve clinical outcomes and patient quality of life.

Abstract

Malnutrition and stunting among children under five remain major public health challenges in developing countries, including Indonesia. These conditions are associated with increased morbidity, mortality, impaired cognitive development, and reduced productivity in adulthood. Stunting reflects chronic nutritional deficiencies, while severe malnutrition indicates acute or prolonged inadequate nutrient intake, often exacerbated by infections, poor caregiving practices, and unfavorable socioeconomic conditions. This case report aims to describe the clinical condition, contributing factors, management, and outcomes of a 14-month-old female toddler diagnosed with severe malnutrition and stunting without complications in Blang Dalam Geuteung Village, Nisam Subdistrict, North Aceh Regency. The assessment was conducted using a family medicine approach, incorporating detailed history taking, physical examination, anthropometric measurements, and nutritional status evaluation based on World Health Organization Z-score indicators. Interventions included nutritional rehabilitation through appropriate dietary intake, family education on balanced nutrition and proper feeding practices, routine growth monitoring, and optimization of primary healthcare services. The results showed gradual improvement in the child’s nutritional status, evidenced by weight gain, better appetite, and improved feeding patterns following the intervention. This case highlights the importance of early detection, comprehensive family-centered management, and continuous monitoring in addressing malnutrition and stunting at the primary care level. Strengthening community-based interventions, improving caregiver knowledge, and enhancing collaboration between healthcare providers and families are essential to reduce the burden of malnutrition and support optimal child growth and development.
