Abstract

New Civilizations in the Post-Covid-19 World Health There  are  several  possibilities  that  will happen  after  the Covid-19  outbreak  ends.  This  is  the  other  side  of  the Covid-19 pandemic.  There  is  a  term  called  see  the  un- seen, or seeing something before it happens. An illustrative example is that everyone sees the apple falling down, but only one person sees why or what causes the apple to fall down. This  is  Isaac  Newton.  Based  on  this phenomenon, the formula for the gravitational force or the gravitational force of the earth is triggered. This paper focuses on what might happen in the future.Indeed, the earth repairs itself in its own way, and that is for the benefit of mankind. The Covid-19 outbreak that is currently happening is a very positive thing for human life. Under the earth there are shifts in the earth’s plates which cause tectonic earthquakes. What is the goal? The aim is to stabilize the earth so that an asteroid collision does not occur. There is a plague on earth, what does it mean? Its meaning is  to  improve  human  life.  So,  let’s interpret  the  current outbreak as something positive. Previously in Europe, there were millions of deaths due to PES disease. At that time, most farmers died, so the land owners were short of labor. What is the meaning? First, farmers have a high bargaining position. Second, after the plague occurred, then there was the collapse of feudalism. In the past, peasants worked in a kind of forced labor. Then the modern economic system was  born.  It was  started  at  that  time  when  farmers  were paid in cash which had never happened before. This was the beginning of the growth of the modern economic system2.

Abstract

The UI Makara Satellite Clinic (KSUI) is a university clinic that serves UI residents and the public as well as a vehicle for  education  and  health  research  in  primary  services.  It has been  a  BPJS  Outpatient  Service  Clinic  (KPRJ)  since October  2018.  It  is  called  a Satellite  Clinic  because  it  is planned  to  become  a  satellite  for  university  hospitals  in the academic health system at the University of Indonesia. Currently, KSUI is located on the Depok campus and the Salemba campus. In its daily services at the Depok campus, KSUI provides  services  for  doctors,  dentists,  nursing, pharmacy,  laboratories,  action  rooms, and psychological counseling.KSUI’s mission is not the same as an ordinary outpatient clinic, but because KSUI is a health service facilitated by the university, KSUI has a mission to maintain the health of the academic community, and not only treat them when they fall  ill.  Therefore,  in  addition  to  services that  respond  to patients coming to the clinic, KSUI also organizes periodic health check services, facilitates Posbindu activities in the faculties and office buildings on campus, and participates in medical care at any gathering or sports activities provided on campus.With  the  Covid-19  case  being  found  in  Indonesia,  KSUI decided  to  change  its service  method  as  quickly  and  as firmly  as  possible  from  face-to-face  services  to online services,  following  the  Chancellor’s  Decree  to  close  the campus  from  face-to-face  learning  and  other  student activities.  With  the  return  of  the  UI  dormitory students and  the  implementation  of  work  from  home  (WFH)  for lecturers  and education  staff,  KSUI  must  provide  safe services during a pandemic and can be accessed by service users  without  having  to  come  to  campus.  Therefore,  this article is a brief piece of information that has been done by KSUI when it decided that services should be carried out online.  It  is  not  easy  for  the  officer,  because  it  has  never been done, and it is not easy for the patient.

Abstract

Primary care physicians (PCPs) are trained to provide care for a wide scope of medical conditions within their patient population. They are supposed to be the very first healthcare provider the patient should visit when having an illness. Accordingly, it is customary for PCPs to encounter many types of patient cases in their practice. In addition to common diseases, some patients may present with symptoms of a rare disease (RD).Unfortunately, PCPs often lack knowledge to promptly detect and manage the patients with such disease. A research from Ireland reveals that only a third of PCPs were able to establish a diagnosis for RD and refer the patient to the appropriate specialist1. In Spain, more than half the PCPs were deemed fair or poor in knowledge of RD2. Similar result was also obtained from an expert survey in Belgium, stating that the basic RD knowledge of most PCPs in the country is low3. It is therefore justifiable for Evans to say that many patients with RD are un- or misdiagnosed4 and thus, it may take years to finally get a correct diagnosis3. In Indonesia, there has been no published local- or nationwide research surveying the PCP’s knowledge concerning presentations of RD.

Abstract

Background: Elderly populations have increased in line with the increased life expectancy. Currently, the balance of disease burden on the elderly has shifted towards chronic disease. Cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cognitive impairment and depression are chronic diseases that cause suffering and death in elderly populations. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive and multidimensional health assessment as a preventive effort to reduce morbidity in the elderly.Objective: The general objective of this research was to obtain a description of elderly health status at the Posyandu for the elderly using a geriatric assessment called the ABCDE (Ability, Balance, Cognitive, Diseases, Emotion) method.Methods: This research used a cross-sectional design. The subjects were elderly persons ≥ 60 years old who participated in the Posyandu for the elderly and who had fulfilled inclusion and exclusion criteria. The estimated minimum sample size was 242 selected using stratified random sampling. The statistical analysis in this research employed univariate, and bivariate analysis using Chi square tests.Results: Elderly participants had light dependency (34.2%) with average activities of daily living (ADL) value of 19.39 ± 1.32, positive Romberg test 3.7%, and Sharpened Romberg Test 50%. The prevalence of cognitive impairment was 43.4%, while the average score of Mini Mental State Examination was 23.31 ± 6.08, hypertension prevalence 73.14%, hypercholesterolemia 13.22%, and diabetes mellitus 10.33%. Elderly who had depression and probable depression were 12.81%, consisting of mild depression 11.57% and moderate depression 1.24%. Balance disorders had a statistically significant correlation with ADL (p = 0.012; Ratio Prevalence (RP) = 1.422: 95% CI), cognitive impairment (p = 0.039; RP = 1.31: 95% CI), and depression (p = 0.034; RP = 1.63: 95% CI).Conclusion: The prevalences of hypertension, cognitive impairment, and balance disorder on sharpened Romberg test were high. There were statistically significant correlations between balance disorder and ADL, cognitive function, and depression. These findings support the application of geriatric assessment by using ABCDE which can be applied in primary care setting for elderly people.

Abstract

Background: Malaria Community Worker (CMW) has a crucial role in malaria prevention and control in the community. However, a number of studies showed that there is a lack of competence from MCW in carrying out its duties. Knowledge, attitudes and practice (KAP) can represent the behavior about health services. Objective: This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitudes and practice of the Malaria Community Worker towards prevention and control of malaria in Kokap, Kulon Progo. Methods: KAP survey with cross-sectional design was conducted in this study. CMW from Puskesmas Kokap I (n = 8) was asked to fill out a KAP questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and inferential tests were used to analyze the data. Data were analyzed by IBM SPSS Statistics Version 25. Results: The study found that 100% of respondents (n = 8) obtained high knowledge scores with the highest aspect on understanding about malaria and the lowest on diagnosis. The attitude score showed a moderate attitude for 100% of respondents (n = 8) with the highest aspect was fogging for malaria prevention and the lowest was the attitude that malaria is a serious disease. Meanwhile, the score of practice described good practice in 100% of respondents (n = 8) with the lowest part was compiling daily/weekly reports to the malaria program coordinator of Primary Health Care. From the observations, there was no significant correlation (p> 0.05) between demographic characteristics and between knowledge, attitudes and practice. Conclusion: The CMWs had a high knowledge score, moderate attitude, and good practice towards malaria prevention and control. Further studies with a larger sample are recommended for future study. CMW training is also recommended to improve the KAP of CMW.
