Abstract

Context: Human development consists of periods of accelerated growth where there is an acceleration ofgrowth followed by a period of slower growth. The timing of pubertal growth spurt and maximal growthrate during this developmental phase is different in boys and girls. The increase in growth rate in girlsusually occurs at the onset of puberty while boys experience a relatively slow increase in growth rate atpuberty.Aims:to compare the differences in the duration of growth spurtbetween girl andboy in Indonesianpopulations in terms of the Cervical Vertebrae Maturation (CVM) seen in the lateral cephalogram. Thisinformation is important to determine the right time and orthodontic treatment plan in order to get maximumtreatment results.Methods and Material: The research variables were divided into 3 types, namely dependent variables(chronological age), independent variables (Cervical Vertebrae Maturation stage, gender). Every sample thatmet the criteria was performed skeletal maturity analysis using Cervical Vertebrae Maturation (CVM) oneach cephalometric photo Skeletal analysis with Cervical Vertebrae Maturation (CVM) by looking at bonematurationResults: There were differences in the mean / mean age of skeletal maturity in terms of changes in CS 3to CS 4 between male and female samples (p <0.05). The male sample required a duration of age to reachmaturity, namely 15.879 months. Meanwhile, the female sample only required the duration of age to reachmaturity, namely 5,184 monthsConclusions:Girls in this study population had a faster growth spurt duration than boys. This is marked by achange in the age of skeletal maturity between the two, which is approximately 10 months apart.

Abstract

Burn is an injury to the skin or other tissue. Mostly, it caused by contacting with hot liquids, solids, and flames. The important thing that should be consider in burn incident is the severity of burn and it based on the depth and area of the burn injury. The severity of burns will cause differences of pathophysiological responses. This was a literature review study. Various articles were collected from online database including reports, journals, and published in the last 10 years. The articles were from the scholar journals. The systemic inflammatory response in severe level of burns was not given good response to disappear of lesion burn and initiating tissue repair. Moreover, it was given an organ failure to the patient. The body responded to this incident by releasing antiinflammatory mediators. This response is very strong and prolonged, so it caused immunosuppression and increase the risk of secondary infection to the patients. Burns affects the patient’s immune system. The ratio between pro and antiinflammatory mediators are determining the patient’s subsequent status.

Abstract

Introduction: Magnesium Sulphate and Dexamethasone are used as adjuvants to local anaesthetics inregional anaesthesia to improve the quality of blockObjective: To compare the efficacy of magnesium sulphate and dexamethasone on the characteristics of theblock and its effect on postoperative analgesia when added as an additive to bupivacaine in supraclavicularbrachial plexus block.Materials and Methods: Fifty patients belonging to American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) GradeI and II, aged between 18 to 55 years, scheduled for elective upper limb surgeries under supraclavicularbrachial plexus block were enrolled in this study. Patients were equally divided into two groups : group Mreceived 0.5% Bupivacaine 30ml with 10% Magnesium sulphate 5 ml (500mg) and group D received 0.5%Bupivacaine 30ml with Dexamethasone 2ml (8mg) + Normal saline 3ml. Onset and duration of sensory andmotor block , duration of postoperative analgesia and any complications were observed.Results: In our study the demographic profile of patients, duration of surgery and ASA status between thetwo groups were comparable. Onset of sensory block was earlier in group D than group M (17.12±0.93minutes and 19.40 ±1.08 minutes respectively, p=0.001). Duration of motor block and analgesia were longerin group D as compared to group M (479.00 ±50.83 minutes vs 346.40 ±32.77 minutes respectively, p=0.001 for motor block and 533.80 ±59.80 minutes vs 415.00 ±57.23 minutes respectively, p=0.001 foranalgesia). No significant side effects were noted.Conclusion: Dexamethasone is a better adjuvant than Magnesium Sulphate when added to bupivacaine insupraclavicular brachial plexus block as it prolongs duration of motor block and analgesia significantly withminimal side effects.

Abstract

Background: A quasi experimental study to evaluate the effectiveness of guided imagery technique inreduction of stress level among chronic renal failure patients. The aim of the study wasto determine thestress level among patients with chronic renal failure in experimental group after introduction of guidedimagery. Methods and Material: A true experimental two-group pre-test - post-test design was used for thepresent study. The sample consisted of 100 chronic renal failure patients undergoing dialysis were randomlyassigned to experimental group and control group (N=50+50=100). Data was analysed using paired andunpaired‘t’ test, chi-square test, Karl Pearson correlation co-efficiency, and Spearman’s correlation coefficiency. Results: In experimental Group 62% of the samples had moderate level of stress, 20% of thesamples had severe level of stress and 18% of the samples had mild level of stress with mean and SD of64.02, 5.88. There was a significant reduction in the mean post test stress score of experimental groupcompared to mean pre test stress score of experimental group at 0.05 level of significance. (t49 = 6.526, P< 0.05). The results showed that chronic renal failure patients had significant level of stress related to theirillness and guided imagery is an effective intervention for reduction of stress. Conclusion: Guided imageryis a simple non-invasive, cost effective, method that can be used for reduction of stress without any adverseeffects on the patients. Patients themselves can practice their own imagery without any assistance.
