Abstract

Acinetobacter baumanii (A. baumanii) has arisen as the most important cause of nosocomial infection, typically in severely ill patients with many comorbidities and medical supportive devices. Tigecycline is a therapeutic option for treating this infection because of its potential ability against wide spectrum of bacterias, including multi-drug resistance A. baumannii (MDRAB). Our study determine the in vitro susceptibility of tigecycline against A. baumanii isolates and the emergence of MDRAB. The frequency of isolates that were not inhibited at MIC ‰¤ 0.5 µg/ml was 50.46%, at MIC = 1µg/ml was 2.38%, and at MIC = 2 µg/ml was 19.07%. The susceptibility rate of tigecycline against A. baumanii was 68.27% in 2015, 79.58% in 2016, and 67.87% in 2017. In vitro result demonstrated that tigecycline had good value of MIC against A. baumanii at the range of 0.5 to 2 µg/ml.

Abstract

The presence of placenta previa may be associated with placenta accreta[1].  Maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality from placenta previa accreta are considerable and are associated with high demands on health resources. With the rising incidence of caesarean sections combined with increasing maternal age, the number of cases of placenta praevia and its complications, including placenta accreta, will continue to increase[2]. Here, we present a case of  placenta previa totalis percreta in previous cesarean section twice. In this case, patient with placenta previa totalis-percreta we diagnosed and prepared  proper management with the involvement of multidisciplinary team. We reduced blood loss by performing total abdominal hysterectomy immediately after delivered the baby and the postoperative course was uneventful.

Abstract

Aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition which requires immediate surgical intervention. It has been estimated that half of aortic dissection and/or ruptures in women younger than 40 years of age have been associated with pregnancy.19 The limited data on the coincidence of Marfan syndrome, pregnancy and aortic dissection makes its anesthetic management a formidable challenge to any anesthesiologist.This is a case of a 33-year-old G1P0, 28 weeks age of gestation with Marfan syndrome, who had Aortic Dissection Stanford type A and underwent an emergency Modified Bentall’s surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest.This case illustrates the dilemma of managing this case since there are two patients involved, mother and fetus. Wrong decision could result in demise of both. Although the aim is life for both, survival of one without neurologic sequelae is already considered a success.

Abstract

Pelvic organ prolapse is a condition of descent or herniation of woman’s pelvic organs through the birth canal or onto birth canal space. As someone gets older, the incidence of pelvic organ prolapse increases, due to weakening of ligaments and muscles as suspensor for the pelvic organs. Prolapse may or may not show symptoms. Symptoms that occur are associated due to pressure of the pelvic area, difficulty urinating and defecation. The staging of pelvic organ prolapse utilized the Baden-Walker System and Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q). Management for pelvic organ prolapse can be done conservatively and operatively, and the decision of which approach should be taken based on the patient’s condition and choice.

Abstract

Background Piriformis syndrome (PS) is one causes of buttock and hip pain which is caused by pressure of sciatic nerves on piriformis muscle. PS is sometime misdiagnosed because of similar clinical signs and symptoms with other lower back pain diagnosis such as Hernia Nucleus Pulposus (HNP), Sacroiliac joint pain, facet joint pain. Gold standard diagnosis of PS is diagnostic block injection. However, provocative test and prolonged H reflex on EMG might be also standard diagnostic of PS.Aim Understand the sensitivity and specificity of provocative test and prolonged H reflex to diagnose PS.Method 72 patients with suspected PS who came to Neurology OPD in period of August- December 2017 were testing with physical examination (provocative test) and Electromyography test of H reflex. PS is diagnosed by positive diagnostic block injection. Data was proceeded with SPSS 20 version.Result 72 patients with buttock pain which diagnosed with PS were dominated by female gender than male with ratio 1:3 with housewives as majority of work. Most age groups were 48.6% elderly (age more than 60 years old). Provocative tests result of Freiberg, FAIR, Beatty, Pace Sign, Hip Abduction sensitivity were 52.30; 66.15; 53.84; 46.15; 55.32 and specificity were 100; 42.85; 71.42; 71.42; 57.14. While sensitivity and specificity of prolonged H reflex more than 1.86 msec were 69.23 and 28.59. Combination of 3 provocative tests (FAIR, Freiberg and Beatty) resulted highest sensitivity and specificity in this study as 71.42 and 100.Conclusion Provocative test and prolong H reflex can be supported diagnosis of PS. However both tests might not be comparable yet than diagnostic block injection as gold standard of PS. Combination of provocative test increased the sensitivity and specificity of provocative test than single test only.
