Abstract

Laparatomy is surgery performed to open the abdominal area which causes an increase in plasma adrenaline and inflammatory. Leukocytes will increase if the adrenal glands are stimulated as a physiological response such as stress and when active against microorganisms. Leukocytosis can trigger an increase in the number of neutrophil and lymphocyte cells in the blood circulation and cause an increase in leukocytes and diffcount. Curcuma zedoaria contain curcumin compounds as antioxidant effectiveness to prevent fisiologis stress, flavonoid and essential oils as an anti-inflammatory which can increase the total of leukocyte. The objective of this research is to determine the effect of several Curcuma zedoaria infusion on the total of leukocytes and diffcount on post operative laparatomy wound healing.
