Abstract

Background: Plebitis causes increase in medical cost and decreasing motivation in health workers and patients. One of the important issues in phlebitis can be found in the treatment process and has a great risk for the occurrence of a complication that can cause thrombus which subsequently becomes thrombophlebitis, causing the need to increase infuse therapy Methods: Eligible studies for this systematic review constitute results that summarize influence factors related causes plebitis. We systematically searched ProQuest, Springer, Google Scholar from 7 days on 23-30 April 2018 for eligible systematic reviews with language limitation in English and Indonesian. Results: The literature search and screening process resulted in 21 full text articles. We found all 21 studies results proved influence factors that can cause plebitis and can be categorizes to 4 major factor which are: procedure and techniques,place and position,people,and types of fluids and medicines factors. Influence factors that mostly cause plebitis occurring in the 7 countries are from procedures and techniques, and people factors. Many are caused by violation the procedures and low soft skill in health workers. Conclusions: Plebitis incidence has become major issue in nosocomial infection at the hospital many countries. There should be new policy for monitoring and evaluation, supervision, documentation, analysis in plebitis sign with patient condition, increased competence knowledge and soft skill of health workers, fluid analysis and medicines, and nurse compliance for implementation of procedures and protocol. Plebitis is of particular concern because it can hurt many sectors ranging from patient, hospital, government and countries.

Abstract

Background: Length of stay (LOS) is one of the most common indicator used for hospital performance assessment. The longer LOS for mothers giving birth can increase the risk of nosocomial infections and cause some psychological problems. Aims: This study aims to analyze the determinants of maternal length of stay which can be used to evaluate the hospital efficiency and quality care improvement. Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted in two hospitals in Jakarta. We used the medical records of women who underwent delivery during the period of January 1 to December 31, 2011. Multivariate linear regression analysis with stepwise method was used to predict length of stay. Results: The study found 2727 patients met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. The overall mean length of hospital stay was 3 days and the mean of mother’s age was 29,9 years old. Among all of the covariates, mode of delivery had largest impact on LOS, with cesarean section increasing LOS by 1.2 days on average (Coef=1,21; P=0,000), followed by hospital ownership with private hospital reducing LOS 0,79 days on average (Coef = 0,79; P=0,000). Conclusion: Mode of delivery and hospital ownership were the strong predictors for maternal length of stay in two hospitals in Jakarta.

Abstract

Background: Hospital and other health service facility must implement the prevention and control of infection (PPI) in accordance with the Decree of the Minister No 270/MINISTER/2007. However, in 2010, at Lung Hospital “Dr. H. A. Rotinsulu Bandung”, Indonesia, among 868 patients who had the infusion, the incidence rate of phlebitis reached to 2.64 %. In the infusion installation management, nurses must have knowledge, skills and adequate attitude toward the procedure. Aims: This study aims to assess how nurses’ knowledge to the infusion procedure affects their attitude. Method: It was a descriptive study using a cross sectional approach. A total of 70 nurses from lung hospital “Dr. H. A. Rotinsulu Bandung”, Indonesia, was selected using random sampling technique from April to July 2011. The nurses work in hospital ward, intensive care unit and emergensy instalation. The respondents were given questionnaire regarding to the assessment of nurses’ knowledge and attitude. The collected data was analyzed using Person test to show the association between nurses’ attitude and their knowledge to the infusion procedure. Results: Most of respondents (57.1%) work for 11-20 years. While 38.6% nurses employ less than 10 years, there were 14.3% nurses work for more than 21 years. However, as shown in Table 3, out of 70 nurses, only 50% have good knowledge to the infusion procedure, while 32.9% nurses have enough understanding. The rest 17.1% need more attention, where 2 of that 12 nurses orchestrated negative attitude to the procedure. In addition, the statistical analysis shows that the relationship between the knowledge and the attitude of nurses about infusion procedures was found significant (p value = 0.002). Conclusion: The results shows the length of work will not affect to the better knowledge of nurses to the infusion procedures. The negative attitude that found among the nurses indicated the importance to highlight this issue to the hospital management. Attention to their understanding to the infusion procedure will improve their attitude, in return it can prevent accident during the handling.

Abstract

Background: FAST campaigns help people recognize the signs and symptoms of stroke rapidly to bring the patient to the hospital or emergency department immediately. However, the effectiveness is still be questioned. This present study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the campaign of early detection in stroke patients to reduce the risk of disability. Methods: A systematic review of articles published between 2010 and 2017 examining the effectiveness of FAST campaign using interventions was conducted along with narrative synthesis and review of intervention development. Information from all relevant published articles that determine how the intervention was developed and evaluated for measuring the effectiveness of FAST campaign were extracted and analyzed. Results: Eleven studies were included, six studies report the effectiveness of FAST campaign, but the other five studies report that the campaigns still do not hit the target. The professionals claim that FAST campaign has been promoted internationally as a great success, but some studies report that the FAST campaign still do not have any significant impact in promoting swift response for Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Conclusions: Campaigns aimed at the public may raise awareness of signs of stroke, but have limited impact on behavior. Thus, new campaigns of FAST should survey the principles of good design and be intensely evaluated for the effectiveness of the implementation.

Abstract

Background: Teachers in developing countries traditionally send home children found sick in class. Yet infection due to malaria is the principal reason a child will miss school in sub-Saharan Africa and the leading cause of death in school-aged children. Rapid diagnostic testing (RDT) and treatment with artemesinin combination therapy (ACT) is the management for malaria recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) but RDT/ACT are not available in schools. Aims: To evaluate the impact on child morbidity from malaria of engaging teachers to provide RDT and administer ACT in primary schools in rural Uganda, using duration of absence from school as a surrogate measure of morbidity. Methods: This was a 2 year project.Pre-intervention (year 1) we trained teachers to identify probable infectious illness, conduct RDT, and administer ACT; conducted baseline evaluation of malaria knowledge, and monitored days of absence from school. Intervention (year 2) trained volunteer teachers administered RDT to children found to be sick at school and treated those positive with ADT; data collection was ongoing. Results: Teacher administered RDT/ACT was implemented and sustained in 4 rural schools (grades primary 1-5). Teachers participated willingly. Year 1 (pre-intervention) 953 of 1764 pupils were sent home due to illness; mean duration of absence from class was 6.5 (SD 3.17) school days. Year 2: (intervention with RDT/ACT) 1066 of 1774 pupils were identified as sick, 765/1066 (67.5%) tested positive by RDT for malaria and received ACT and their duration of absence fell to 0.59 (SD 0.64) school days (p<0.001); and overall absence decreased to 2.55 days from 6.5 in year 1 (p<0.001). Conclusion: RDT/ACT use by teachers as a school-based health practice is novel and reduced child morbidity significantly. Our model of engaging and training teachers represents a community empowerment approach applicable to other low-resource settings worldwide where malaria is endemic and morbidity high.Â
