Abstract

This case study describe patient receiving treatment in the ICU requested leave against medical advice (LAMA) due to financial limitation regarding hospital bills. This situation presents an ethical dilemma, as the patient requires emergency surgery and mechanical ventilation, making it unfeasible to discontinue the procedure. This study aims to highlight the strategic role of ICU nurses in mediating discharge requests, while upholding patient safety and respecting the family's values and decisions. A man after a traffic accident with a diagnosis of multiple skull fractures and Epidural Hematom (EDH). The patient’s family has provided written informed consent for this case report.This case has been documented in accordance with the CARE Case Report Guidelines. Following the nurse communicated with the case manager and a family conference was held with the medical team, the family decided to agree to surgery on the patient and the costs would be discussed with the extended family. Nurses not only play an active role as coordinators or mediators in providing patient care but also must identify potential financial resources available to the patient's family. This is done to prioritize the patient's interests.

Abstract

Achilles tendon rupture is an injury characterized by partial or complete disruption of the Achilles tendon, commonly caused by trauma or a sudden change in foot position. This condition accounts for approximately 20% of all major tendon ruptures. This study aims to present and analyze a rare case of bilateral Achilles tendon rupture, emphasizing the clinical presentation, diagnostic challenges, and management considerations. Men are at 2–12 times higher risk than women, with the incidence increasing between the ages of 40 and 59 years. Diagnosis is established through history taking, physical examination, and imaging modalities such as ultrasonography or MRI. We report a case of a 53-year-old male who presented with pain and swelling in both posterior ankles for the past three months, following a fall from a height of approximately four meters. The patient experienced limited mobility and required a walking aid. Physical examination revealed bilateral edema, a palpable defect in the Achilles tendon, tenderness, a positive Thompson test, and weakness of plantar flexion. MRI confirmed bilateral Achilles tendon rupture. The patient had previously undergone conservative management, including the application of an ankle strap and administration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, with no improvement. Bilateral Achilles tendon rupture is a rare condition, typically resulting from high-energy trauma. Delayed diagnosis and treatment may increase the risk of complications and long-term disability. Management options include conservative or surgical approaches, selected based on patient age, extent of rupture, and activity level. Bilateral Achilles tendon rupture following a fall from height is an uncommon case, highlighting the importance of prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment to prevent permanent functional impairment.

Abstract

Diabetic foot ulcers are one of the chronic complications of diabetes mellitus (DM) that can lead to serious infections and even amputation. Poor self-care ability is a major risk factor in the development of chronic wounds among DM patients. The Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME) intervention has been considered effective in improving patients’ self-management abilities; however, contextual evidence in Indonesia remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of DSME intervention in improving self-care abilities among patients with diabetic foot ulcers at RSUD Banjarmasin. The study employed a quasi-experimental design using a one group pre-test and post-test approach. A total of 30 patients were selected using total sampling. The DSME intervention was delivered over seven consecutive days through a structured, face-to-face educational approach. Self-care ability was measured using the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA) questionnaire before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using a paired sample t-test. Prior to the intervention, the majority of respondents (70%) were categorized as having poor self-care. After the intervention, 80% of respondents were categorized as having good self-care. The paired sample t-test showed a significant difference in self-care scores before and after the DSME intervention (p < 0.001). The DSME intervention was effective in enhancing self-care abilities among patients with diabetic foot ulcers.

Abstract

Hypertension treatment therapy needs to be supported by non-pharmacological therapy because it has fewer side effects, one of which is exercise, but so far it has not been widely done by hypertension sufferers. The study was to analyze the effect of the combination of NADA ISME RELIGI (deep breathing, isometrics and religious prayers) on reducing blood pressure in elderly with hypertension. A quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest with a control group design was used in 66 elderlies with hypertension recruited using purposive sampling. The research variables were the combination of NADA ISME RELIGI and blood pressure. Data analysis using paired sample t-test and independent t-test. The results of inferential testing showed that in the intervention group the pre and post-test values of blood pressure were p = 0.000 (p <0.05), so it can be concluded that the combination intervention of RELIGIOUS NADA ISME has a significant effect on blood pressure in hypertension sufferers. The combination of RELIGIOUS NADA ISME (Deep Breathing, Isometric and Religious Prayer) can reduce blood pressure in the elderly with hypertension, as evidenced by the results of research in the intervention group showing a decrease in blood pressure.

Abstract

Severely underweight in children under five, particularly severely underweight and stunting, remains a major public health issue with long-term impacts on human resource quality. One of the recommended interventions is the provision of Food for Special Medical Purposes (FSMP) in healthcare facilities. This study aimed to determine the effect of the program on weight gain among underweight and stunted under-five patients in the Sakura Inpatient Ward of Bekasi Regional General Hospital. This was a true experimental study with a one-group pretest-post-test design. The sample was obtained through total sampling of all under-five patients aged 0–36 months with severely underweight and stunting who were hospitalized in the Sakura Inpatient Ward from January 2024 to June 2025, totalling 71 patients. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests with a significance level of 5% (α = 0.05). There was an increase in the average body weight among severely underweight children from 5.31 kg to 5.63 kg (Δ = 0.32 kg; p < 0.001), and among those with both severely underweight and stunting from 4.97 kg to 5.34 kg (Δ = 0.37 kg; p < 0.001). The provision of program significantly increased body weight in under-five children with severely underweight, as well as those with combined severely underweight and stunting.

Abstract

Hospitals play a strategic role in supporting promotive, preventive, curative, and rehabilitative health efforts. The Emergency Department (ED) and Radiology Unit are critical services that directly affect the speed and accuracy of diagnosis, especially in emergency cases. This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of these two units using a Lean Management approach. A systematic literature review was conducted through databases including Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar using the keywords “emergency department,” “radiology,” and “lean management.” Inclusion criteria consisted of English- and Indonesian-language articles published between 2015 and 2024. Article selection followed the PRISMA guidelines. A total of 250 records were initially identified, with 10 high-quality articles ultimately meeting all inclusion and quality appraisal criteria for analysis. Findings indicate that Lean Management effectively identifies process waste, particularly prolonged patient waiting times and delays in radiology reporting. Techniques such as Value Stream Mapping and Root Cause Analysis were found to streamline workflows and reduce non-productive time. The implementation of Lean Management significantly enhances the efficiency of radiology services in emergency settings by optimizing processes and minimizing waste. Continuous outcome monitoring, regular training, multidisciplinary collaboration, and information technology integration are essential to ensure sustainable and system-wide improvements.

Abstract

Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is one of the most common chronic kidney diseases in children, characterized by massive proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, edema, and dyslipidemia. Relapse occurs in most cases and contributes to worsening the disease course. Dyslipidemia is suspected to influence relapse risk, but the specific relationship between lipid profile and relapsing NS remains unclear. Objective to analyze the association between total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, and HDL levels with relapse incidence in children with nephrotic syndrome. A retrospective study was conducted on 66 children aged 2–18 years with NS treated at H. Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan, in 2024. Subjects were divided into relapsing (n=54) and non-relapsing (n=12) groups. Data were obtained from medical records and analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test and Spearman correlation. Triglyceride (p=0.007), LDL (p=0.013), and HDL (p<0.001) levels differed significantly between the relapsing and non-relapsing groups. Total cholesterol showed no significant difference (p=0.164). The mean albumin level was significantly lower in the relapsing group (2.9 g/dL vs. 4.1 g/dL; p<0.001). A significant negative correlation was found between albumin and triglyceride levels (r=-0.326; p=0.008). Triglyceride, LDL, and HDL levels are significantly associated with relapse in pediatric nephrotic syndrome. Hypoalbuminemia is also an important risk factor. Lipid profile evaluation can serve as a useful indicator in monitoring and managing relapses.

Abstract

Local anesthesia is commonly used in a variety of dermatological procedures to reduce pain and improve patient comfort. However, some side effects can occur, including burning sensations, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, blurred vision, and even impaired consciousness. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of local anesthesia on patient comfort during dermatological procedures. The study was conducted at an aesthetic clinic in Semarang from 7 to 9 February, involving 20 patients (2 men and 18 women). This study uses a quantitative descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach to assess patient comfort and side effects after local anesthesia in dermatologic procedures. Patients aged 18 and older who consent will be recruited consecutively. Researchers will using observation checklist and vital sign chart to collect demographic and clinical data, observe and record specific side effects such as feeling hot/sore, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, blurred vision, impaired consciousness, and fainting during and up to 30 minutes after the procedure, and monitor vital signs before and after the procedure. The results showed that 16 out of 20 patients reported no complaints after the procedure. Three patients experienced a burning sensation, while one patient experienced nausea and vomiting. None of the patients reported dizziness, blurred vision, loss of consciousness, or fainting. In conclusion, local anesthesia provides a high level of comfort for patients with minimal side effects. Therefore, it remains a safe and effective option for dermatological procedures, although monitoring individual responses remains important.

Abstract

The prevalence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) among children and adolescents has been progressively increasing, with Type 1 DM constituting the majority of cases. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major long-term complication, yet early cardiac involvement remains poorly understood in this population. This study aimed to assess the association between glycaemic control and cardiac function in paediatric patients with DM. A cross-sectional observational study was conducted involving 30 children with type 1 or type 2 DM at H. Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan. Glycaemic control was assessed using HbA1c levels. Cardiac function was evaluated using electrocardiography (ECG) and echocardiographic parameters, including ejection fraction (EF), fractional shortening (FS), tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), and E/A ratio. Data were analysed using Chi-Square and Mann-Withney Test. Most subjects (90%) had poor glycaemic control (HbA1c ≥7%). Cardiac dysfunction (reduced EF <55%) was identified in 16.7% of patients. However, no statistically significant associations were found between cardiac function and HbA1c, duration of diagnosis, blood pressure, or body mass index (BMI) (p>0.05). There was no significant relationship was found between glycaemic control and cardiac function, highlighting the need for more sensitive diagnostic tools and long-term follow-up to detect subclinical cardiovascular complications.
