Abstract

Background and Objective: Stroke is a disease with an increasing annual prevalence. One of the most frequent clinical manifestation seen in stroke patients is aphasia which greatly affects the patient’s ability to communicate. The burden and the pressure of taking care of the patient placed on the family members often results in psychological impacts such as depression.  We intend to know the association between aphasia in stroke patients with severe depression on family members. Methodology: This was a cross sectional study, using an unpaired categorical comparative analysis. Inclusion criteria were family members of patients with and without aphasia. Patients and caregivers who gave their consent verbally were guided to fill in the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale questionnaire. The association between aphasia status and the depression scale was analyzed using Chi-Square.Results:  Out of 54 respondents included in the study, there were 25 caregivers (46,3%) taking care stroke patients without aphasia, and 29 caregivers (53,7) taking care stroke patients with aphasia. As much as35 (64.8%) were categorized as normal- moderate level of depression and 19 (35.2%) categorized as major depression. From those with major depression, 14 (73.7%) were found in the aphasic group and 5 were in the non-aphasia group. Chi-Square analysis shows a significant correlation [P=0.03; OR=3.73 (1.1-12.7)] between aphasia in stroke patients and severe depression of the caregivers.Conclusion: There is a significant association between aphasia in stroke patients and the incidence of severe depression on their caregivers.

Abstract

Abdominal wound dehiscence (AWD) is considered as a severe postoperative complication in which there is a partial or complete disruption of an abdominal wound closure with or without protrusion and evisceration. The incidence and mortality rate varies in different health centers. Risk factors are classified into three groups, which includes: pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative. The management of Burst Abdomen or Wound Dehiscence is diverse from conservative treatment to surgical treatment.

Abstract

Background: Central venous catheters (CVCs) are frequently used in patients for several indications such as cancer treatment, diagnostic monitoring, parenteral nutrition, hemodialysis, and administration of fluids, blood products or medication. Double lumen catheter induced CVCs thrombosis has not been paid into proper attention in developing countries such as Indonesia.Aims: The aim of this study is to identify the incidence and characteristic of double lumen catheter induced CVCs thrombosis in patients undergoing hemodialysis.Methods: This systematic review has been registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020181584). A systematic search of literature for observational and randomized controlled trial was conducted in PubMed, PubMed central, and Google Scholar through April 16, 2020. Two reviewers independently searched and selected. The risk of bias was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality assessment tool. Results: A total of 408 patients were included in our study. There were 192 (47.1%) male patients. The double lumen catheter was mostly placed in the jugular vein (60%), followed by subclavian vein (25%) and femoral vein (15%). Four (1.1%) patients had deep vein thrombosis after about one month of double lumen catheter placement. All these four patients, the double lumen catheter was inserted in the femoral vein. Any other significant risk factors for thrombosis other than double lumen catheter insertion not found. Out of these four patients, one of them passed away. All patients were treated using heparin.Conclusion: The incidence of double lumen catheter induced thrombosis is low (1.1%) in patients undergoing hemodialysis. However, further larger study is needed to confirm and find the associating factors.

Abstract

Introduction: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a pandemic. Much false information was circulating especially through social media and affected individual’s knowledge, attitude, practice (KAP) towards COVID-19. Currently, there is lack of validated questionnaires to assess KAP about COVID-19 especially in Indonesian young people.Aim: To develop and validate a new COVID-19 KAP questionnaire for young people population in Indonesian language.Methods: Some literature review was done to look for the concept to generate a new questionnaire.  Open-ended questions were generated to know the baseline knowledge. Then, close-ended questions were formulized for knowledge, attitude, and practice area. The experts and several respondents were asked to give their opinions about the contents of the questionnaire. The validity was examined using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. For reliability, internal consistency was examined by using Pearson or Spearmen correlation test.Results: A total of 59 subjects with median ages 21 (16-24) years old of non-medical individuals were included in this validation process. More than half were male, mostly held bachelor’s degree/diploma, and were dominated with students. This Indonesian COVID-19 KAP questionnaire for young people consists of 10 knowledge, 8 attitude, and 7 practice questions. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of knowledge, attitude, and practice areas were 0.87, 0.82, and 0.91, respectively.Conclusions: A questionnaire of KAP towards COVID-19 in Indonesian language had been developed and the results showed good validity.

Abstract

Background : As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Indonesia implemented various policies to break the chain of transmission of COVID-19, starting from large-scale social restrictions, quarantines, and even lockdowns. Without exception, schools were also closed. These conditions affect people psychologically, including levels of depression, anxiety, and stress in students. The aim of this study is to determine profile and factors associated with depression, anxiety, and stress in Indonesian people during the COVID-19 pandemic.Methods : A cross-sectional study among students in Indonesia was conducted to determine depression, anxiety, and stress levels in adolescents based on their sociodemographic characters. The DASS-21 questionnaire was distributed online.Results : A total of 913 people participated from all provinces in Indonesia. Depression, anxiety, and stress were found in 43.5%, 43.3%, 25.2%, respectively. The severity of depression was significantly associated with age (p<0.001), gender(p=0.003), and region(p=0.039). Adults (25-55) are 4.6 times odds more likely to have depression than adolescent during pandemic (OR=4.641, 95% CI=2.053-10.491). The severity of anxiety was significantly associated with age (p=0.002), gender(p<0.001), education (p=0.004) and region(p=0.004). The severity of stress was significantly associated with gender (p<0.001) and education (p=0.018).Conclusion : Depression, anxiety and stress quite common found in Indonesian during COVID-19 pandemic. Several sociodemographic factors were associated with depression, anxiety and stress among Indonesia
