Abstract

Lymphatic Filariasis (LF) is a neglected tropical disease caused by filarial worms. Semarang City has an increasing number of LF. The aim of this study was to investigate potential sources of transmission and distribution of LF. It was descriptive research using cross-sectional design. The sample were 28 LF cases. The variables studied were level of knowledge, physical and biological environmental factors, and provision of health service. Data were collected with interview and observation. Data were analysed descriptively and spatially. The results showed that LF cases were distributed in centre of Semarang City, especially in the coastal area. Poor drainage and stagnant water around the houses were potential breeding places for mosquitos, which are suspected as a vector of LF transmission. Physical and biological environmental factors around the houses of LF patient may possibly be sources of distribution and transmission of LF. It was indicated with the existence of mosquito larvae in any habitats.

Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive bacterium that causes inflammation such as mastitis in the breast. Breast mastitis can occur in nursing mothers and requires first aid or initial treatment. Herbal ingredients can be utilized because they are easily obtained and can be prepared by the community themselves. The study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of soursop leaf extract on IL-6 levels in mammae of female rats Sprague dawley induced by S. aureus. The study was divided into four groups consisting of five rats that were induced by S. aureus 2 x 107 CFU/ml. Group I was given 0.5% Na.CMC, Group II gave 45 mg/kgBW cefadroxil antibiotics, group III administered 100 mg / kgBW soursop leaf extract, and group IV administered soursop leaf extract combined with cefadroxil. Each group was given treatment twice a day for 5 days. IL-6 levels were measured on days 3 and 6. The results of this study showed IL-6 levels in group III were 7.50 ± 1.74 pg/ml on the 3rd day, and 4.51 ± 1.47 pg/ml on the 6th day. The results showed there were differences in IL-6 levels in group III (p = 0.037). Soursop leaf extract can be used as a therapy for mastitis caused by S. aureus.

Abstract

Abstract Live traps usually can only trap rats in the first day of trapping because the bait become not luring anymore after the first day of trapping. The purpose of this study was to determine the differences in lured rats number between uncombined bait trapping and combined bait trapping. This is a quasi-experimental study with a post-test only non-equivalent control group design. Each house has 5 traps setup with 6 replications. One trap was set with combined bait types (rice, anchovy, tofu and roasted coconut) and four other traps set with separated uncombined bait types; (1) rice, (2) anchovy, (3) tofu, (4) roasted coconut. The instruments used were house screening sheets, traps and observation sheets. The data obtained were tested with the Mann-Whitney test. The results showed that there were not significant differences in trapped rats number between combined bait and uncombined rice bait (p=0.748), between combined bait and uncombined anchovy bait (p=0.355), between combined bait and uncombined tofu bait (p=1.000), and also between combined bait and uncombined roasted coconut bait (p=0.734). Uncombined anchovies bait trapped rats most. Combined bait and uncombined anchovy bait were most consistent in trapping rats.

Abstract

The environmental conditions of an area can be a major risk factor for potential outbreaks of DHF. Dense areas with a variety of vegetation are facilitated as breeding sites and have an impact on vector density. The high of vector population give an effect the speed of transmission vector-borne diseases. DHF vector population is related to the vector DHF mating pattern. Adult male mosquitoes vector DHF plays an important role in the pattern of mating DHF. The proportion of mating between adult male and females mosquitoes is 1: 1. Thus it can be seen the density of male mosquitoes, it can be easily estimated the number of female mosquitoes which fertilize and lay eggs. Conducted using observational analytics with male mosquito population surveillance approach. This research aimed to effect of vegetation and House Index (HI) on the abundance of male mosquito populations. Adult mosquitoes taken using light traps with a total sampling technique. Using spatial vegetation analysis shows that Kawengen residents, has a variety of monoecious groups and rice fields. Variety of fruit trees (banana,mango,guava,soursop), flower plants (frangipani,hibiscus), bamboo, another plant (i.e teak). Vegetation density is in the low-moderate category. Kawengen included in the category of moderate density (HI=36%). The number of Aedes sp. male mosquitoes trapped by light traps, of the total trapped mosquito was 6.52%. Variety and density of plants give a support the abundance of male mosquitoes. As a resting and feeding place. HI in moderate density category, indicates there is a positive container or a place for laying eggs. The larvae density affects the sex ratio of mosquitoes.

Abstract

Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has decreased in recurrent cardiac events. However, information related the needs of cardiac rehabilitation patients such as exercise and physical activities counseling are very limited. This study aims to identify the needs of cardiac rehabilitation patients such as exercise, physical activity counselling, and the relationship between them. It also applied a quantitative approach combined with a descriptive correlational method. 38 cardiac rehabilitation patients were recruited as samples and were selected using the convenience sampling technique. Data collection was performed using questionnaires filled out by the respondents (with a retrospective technique) at the end of the CR program, and the results were evaluated through descriptive correlational statistics. The results revealed that patients with CR required exercise (92.1%) and nurses' counseling for physical activities (86.9%). It also indicates that there is a statistically positive relationship between exercise and physical activities counseling among CR patients (r = 0.485, p < 0.01). Consequently, most CR patients desire nurses to take part in their exercise and physical activities. The needs of CR patients on exercise and physical activity counseling were correlated positively. Therefore, information regarding exercise and physical activity for CR patients should be provided simultaneously to complement each other.

Abstract

The high number of medical errors, especially in medication administration errors (MAE) in the last few decades that have occurred in hospitals in developed and developing countries makes patient safety an important issue. This requires the hospital to take steps that prioritize patient safety by focusing on preventive measures, so as to reduce the risk of an MAE. The writing of this article of literature review aims to explain the determinants of MAE in hospitals and their prevention efforts through preventive measures, so that patient safety standards in hospitals (zero defects) can be achieved. The design of the article search in this literature study was carried out through Google scholar, JAKI, and PSNet with the keywords of patient safety incident, medication administration error, contributing factor of MAEs, and determinant factor of MAEs. Based on 13 articles that have been obtained in accordance with the criteria, there are 38 determinant factors in MAE which are grouped into three categories, namely ineffective communication factors, work environment factors, and human factors. Various preventive efforts that can be done to prevent MAEs include: implementing crew resource management, clarifying the chain of command, using the communication form of SBAR, designing an ergonomic workplace, implementing Patient Advocacy Reporting System (PARS), providing training and education for health workers, and setting work schedules that do not exceed workload. Implementation of effective MAE preventive measures can reduce the number of MAEs in the hospital directly.
