Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a global health issue, with over 10 million cases worldwide, and Indonesia ranks as the second-highest country with TB cases. The comorbidity of diabetes mellitus (DM) increases the risk of TB, especially in elderly patients. TB patients with DM are challenging to treat, have low cure rates, and increase the risk of multi-drug resistance TB. Purpose: To understand the characteristic overview of elderly patients with drug-susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis along with type 2 diabetes. Method: This descriptive research utilized surveys with primary data from interviews with elderly patients at RSUD R Syamsudin SH and secondary data from the hospital, covering January 2022 to October 2023. Results: Out of 33 respondents, 20 were male and 13 female. Most (81.8%) had education up to high school, and 72.7% were unemployed. According to BMI, 36.4% had normal weight. Regarding drug adherence, 75.8% supervised it. All respondents had positive chest X-rays for TB, and 87.9% tested positive in molecular rapid tests. Random blood sugar levels showed 12 patients below 200 mg/dl. Among those tested for HbA1c, 78.8% did not undergo the exam, and 6.1% had levels <8%. Conclusion: TB DM predominantly affects elderly males. Most respondents were high school graduates, unemployed, and had normal BMI. They often took on the role of supervising drug adherence. In the Glucose Ad Random, more individuals had levels above 200, and among those tested for HbA1c, many exceeded 7%. All patients showed TB-consistent chest X-rays, with most testing positive in rapid molecular tests.

Abstract

Background: The pre-elderly and elderly endure several changes in the function of their body systems as they get older. Changes can have an impact on parts of pre-elderly and elderly people's lives, including sexual activity. Purposes:  The purpose of this study was to determine the description of the sexual activity of pre-elderly and elderly women who visit the General and Elderly Examination Ward of the UPTD Mengwi II Public Health Center. Methods: This study is a quantitative descriptive study involving 88 samples selected through the Purposive Sampling technique. Data were collected using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) questionnaire. Result: The results of the study showed that the sexual activity of pre-elderly women had an average value of 56.33 which was considered not to have sexual dysfunction, while the sexual activity of elderly women had an average value of 53.79 which was considered to have sexual dysfunction (cut off point of 55). Age (p=0.020), education (p=0.003), disease history (p=0.000), menopause (p=0.000), and perception (p=0.000) are all associated with pre-elderly women's sexual engagement. Age (p=0.020), education (p=0.001), disease history (p=0.000), menopause (p=0.000), and perception (p=0.000) are all associated with senior women's sexual activity. Conclusion: Based on the research results, it was found that most of the low values in this study that led to sexual dysfunction were influenced by factors of medical history, the elderly who had mostly experienced menopause, and the understanding that engaging in sexual activity at an advanced age was considered taboo by the respondents.

Abstract

Background: The context of this study is that older adults face a wide range of health issues, of which pain is a common and serious one that is frequently linked to functional impairment. People 65 years of age and older have joint discomfort twice as frequently as young adults. Finding out how much joint discomfort the elderly at Posyandu Pelangi Nusantara endured was the study's main goal. Purposes: The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of joint pain based on anatomical location among the elderly at Posyandu Pelangi Nusantara. With an average age of 65, the 66 senior respondents in this descriptive study were found in Posyandu Pelangi Nusantara, Darmo District, Surabaya. Methods: It was conducted using the simple random sampling method. The NRS (Numerical Rating Scale) is the tool used in this study. The NRS, a widely used instrument for pain assessment, has demonstrated high inter-rater reliability (Cronbach’s alpha > 0.9) and validity in previous studies. Result: According to the study's findings, 64% of participants reported experiencing pain, 41% reported having knee discomfort, 38% lower back pain, 15% shoulder pain, and 6% neck pain. This is in line with other studies showing that the majority of elderly respondents experience joint pain at a moderate level. This may occur due to several chronic conditions experienced by the elderly, such as high uric acid levels or excessive physical activity, which can increase the intensity of joint pain. To enhance the quality of life for the elderly, more study may be done to determine the causes of pain and develop strategies to lessen these concerns. Conclusion: Most of the research participants, who were the elderly residents of Posyandu Pelangi Nusantara, complained of joint pain. Knee joint pain is the most common complaint. Suggestions for future research include recommending community-based health intervention programs and conducting further studies to explore the factors causing pain.

Abstract

Background: The elderly are individuals aged ≥60 years who will experience functional changes in their body systems, including the musculoskeletal system, and put them at high risk of suffering rheumatoid arthritis. This disease causes joint pain and often affects the elderly's ability to carry out daily activities, thus having an impact on the elderly's level of independence. Purposes: This study aimed to determine the relationship between pain levels and the independence of elderly people with rheumatoid arthritis in UPTD Puskesmas Mengwi II. Methods: This research is a quantitative study that used a correlational design and a cross-sectional approach. The sample was 67 elderly people with rheumatoid arthritis who were selected by the Purposive Sampling technique. Data were collected using the Numerical Rating Scale and Barthel Index, which were analyzed using the Spearman Rank test. Result: The results showed that the average score of pain level in elderly people with rheumatoid arthritis was on a scale of 4 (moderate pain), with an average independence score of 75.37 (mild dependence). The results of bivariate analysis showed that there was a relationship between pain level and the independence of elderly people with rheumatoid arthritis (p=0.000; r= -0.591). Conclusion: the pain level of rheumatoid arthritis impacts the elderly’s activities, so the nursing services can optimize pain management so that elderly people will not experience problems in carrying out their daily activities independently.

Abstract

Background: Over the past few decades, the incidence of patients experiencing acute kidney injury (AKI) has increased, necessitating inpatient care. The prognosis of AKI patients is influenced by the management they receive, requiring swift and accurate intervention to prevent poor outcomes. Current AKI diagnostic biomarkers are considered slow, affecting the timeliness of treatment. This study aims to investigate the correlation between the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and AKI as an early biomarker that has the potential to predict AKI. Objective: This study aims to determine whether there is a correlation between NLR and the stage of AKI using the AKIN criteria and the NLR cutoff for each stage of AKI. Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study. Subjects were selected using consecutive sampling. Data were collected using secondary data from the medical records of PKU Muhammadiyah Purbalingga Hospital. Results: We conducted 101 study subjects, there were 49 male and 52 female, with an average age of 62.3 years. Cardiovascular comorbidities were the most common among AKI patients, with 44 subjects affected. A significant correlation was found between NLR and the stage of AKI, as follows: a statistical analysis using ordinal logistic regression (p=0.044), odds ratio (1.03), and multivariate AUC test (77%), cut off (17.7) with specificity (71%) and sensitivity (75%). Conclusion: There is a correlation between NLR and the stage of AKI using AKIN criteria at PKU Muhammadiyah Purbalingga Hospital.
