Abstract

Large variations in COVID-19 mortality rates between countries and regions have been reported. In addition to age, comorbid diseases, and availability of health facilities; Vitamin D3 adequacy status is assumed to play a role, considering that the COVID-19 mortality rate was found to be relatively higher in countries with a high incidence of vitamin D3 deficiency, such as Italy, Spain, and France. Vitamin D3 has been shown to lower the risk of respiratory tract infections. At the same time, its effect in enhancing cellular and adaptive immunity also makes vitamin D3 worthy of consideration as a potential option for treating and preventing COVID-19. Sick Tk-II Putri Hijau Medan. This study uses a descriptive research method with a cross sectional approach with a retrospective research design, namely research by reviewing information or taking past data (Sugiyono, 2018). The data was obtained from prescriptions for the period February-April 2021. The results showed that there was an increase in the use of Vitamin D3 1000 IU, especially in moderate Covid 19 patients, as well as an increase in the use of Vitamin C 1000 mg and Vitamin C 500 mg.

Abstract

The use of antipsychotics in schizophrenic patients often causes side effects in the form of Extra Pyramidal Syndrome (EPS), namely the presence of uncontrolled muscle movement disorders such as seizures, shaking and so on. The incidence of EPS is more common with the use of typical antipsychotics than atypicals. This study aims to see the incidence of EPS in inpatients with schizophrenia at the Aceh Mental Hospital located in Banda Aceh in 2020. The population in this study were all inpatients who were given typical antipsychotics. While the research sample was 399 samples collected from medical record data of inpatients in 2020, so the study was retrospective with a cross sectional approach. Data collected in the form of patient identity (gender, age), drug therapy (typical antipsychotics) and the incidence of EPS. The results showed that schizophrenic patients who received typical antipsychotic therapy who were hospitalized at the Aceh mental hospital in 2020, were 324 men (81.2%) and 75 women (18.8%), with the highest age range being at 36-45 years amounting to 202 people (50.6%). Typical antipsychotic therapy used in the form of combination of typical-typical and typical-atypical drugs, namely clozapine-trifluperazine (40.6%), chlorpromazine-risperidone (20.3%), haloperidol-chlorpromazine-trifluperazine (16%), haloperidolchlorpromazine (7%), and haloperidol-trifluperazine (5%). The incidence of EPS that occurred was 113 people (28.3%), with the highest number of EPS occurring from the administration of haloperidol-chlorpromazine-trifluperazine combination antipsychotic therapy, which was 61 people (15.3%).

Abstract

The modified formulation provides a fairly effective way to overcome the problem of bioavailability and results in increasing drug reactions and minimizing fluctuations in blood levels during release. The crosslinker in this study is sodium tripolyphosphate (Na-TPP) which is considered the best binding agent and can produce prolonged drug release. The purpose of this study was to determine the profile of theophylline release from the capsule shell of the alginate-chitosan matrix combination using the crosslink method. The capsule shell was made with the ratio of the percentage of alginate ; chitosan; The TPP are F1 (2%; 2%; 4%) and F2 (4%; 2%; 4%). The difference in percentage is intended to determine the ratio of the most optimal levels of releasing theophylline. The results obtained showed that theophylline capsules from formulas F1 and F2 could release the drug slowly and for a long time to the artificial intestinal fluid pH 7.4 for 8 hours for formula F1 and for 12 hours for formula F2 with a cumulative percentage of release of 99.75%.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the content of flavonoid and saponin compounds in bitter melon which is very good as a hair stimulant. The research was conducted experimentally. Hair tonic preparations were made by adding bitter melon extract with various concentrations, namely 5g (F1), 10g (F2), 15g (F3) and as blank (F0). Tests on hair tonic preparations include organoleptic test, homogeneity test, pH test, irritation test and hair growth activity test. The hair tonic preparation is stable in storage and homogeneity, the pH of the preparation is (5.7-6.4) and there is no redness or swelling of the skin when using the preparation. The results of hair growth are 5.0mm (F1), 5.6mm (F2), 6.7mm (F3) and 4.3mm (F0). The results showed that the higher the concentration, the higher the level of hair growth activity and hair tonic with the addition of bitter melon fruit extract (Momordica charantia L.) with a concentration of 15% (F3) had the best activity in rabbit hair growth.

Distribution is an important aspect in ensuring the quality of the preparation. Medical Device Distributors must have adequate facilities and infrastructure to ensure the implementation of distribution, management, procurement, and storage. The purpose of this study was to determine Medical Device Distributors compliance with CDAKB requirements in the distribution of medical devices. This study uses the direct observation method on the research object to see the activities carried out and compare them with the CDAKB requirements listed in the Draft Technical Instructions for Supervision of Medical Device Distribution Facilities. Monitoring objects are documents, officers, facilities/infrastructure, and distribution activities. The results of the observations are the percentage of the level of fulfillment of the CDAKB requirements by dividing the total score achieved by the maximum number of scores and then multiplying by 100%. The results of the analysis of the level of CDAKB compliance show that PT. X meets 59 of 84 points (70.24%) requirements divided into 4 aspects, namely quality management system, resource management, product storage, and handling, and corrective actions, returns, and product destruction.
