Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus is a chronic autoimmune disease that can affect various organs of the body, one of the most commonly affected complications is the kidneys and results in lupus nephritis, the percentage of disease occurrence is more than 50% of patients in the first 5 years. Male patients tend to have more aggressive disease with renal, vascular, and cardiac involvement. Based on the criteria of Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics in 2012 defines lupus nephritis if there is proteinuria in 24 hours ≥ 0.5 g / day, there is urine sediment, and there is a decrease in renal filtration function. Although the disease can be diagnosed based on these three things kidney biopsy remains the gold standard of diagnosis. In this case report, an 18-year-old male with lupus history came to the emergency room with the main complaint of fever accompanied by shortness of breath, from the results of supporting examinations obtained anemia, thrombocytopenia, high creatinine, and eGFR of 4 mL/minute, complete urine showed proteinuria, cylinders, and erythrocytes, AP thorax photos showed cardiomegaly, bronchopneumonia, and bilateral pleural effusions. Based on history, physical examination, lab, and imaging, the patient was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus, lupus nephritis, chronic kidney disease, normocytic normochromic anemia, and community acquired pneumonia. The patient received glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, diuretic, antihypertensives, antibiotics, and other supportive therapy, The patient also received renal replacement therapy in the form of hemodialysis and a kidney biopsy will be done after the condition improves

Abstract

Fat embolism is a clinical syndrome characterized by the systemic spread of fat emboli which often occurs due to fractures in long bones. We report a 29 year old man with a diagnosis of a fracture of the medial third of the right humerus accompanied by thrombocytopenia which could be one of the clinical manifestations of pulmonary embolism. A 29 year old man came to the emergency room at RAA Soewondo Pati Regional Hospital with complaints of pain in his right hand 2 hours before entering the hospital. The patient felt pain after falling and slipping at home. Physical examination revealed tachycardia and tachypnea. Humeral x-ray revealed discontinuity in the medial 1/3 of the right humerus. The patient then underwent treatment for the fracture and the day after a routine blood test was carried out. Routine blood tests revealed thrombocytopenia.Fat embolism is a dangerous complication of long bone fractures. Often this fat embolism is not recognized until the patient shows symptoms in several systems, especially the respiratory system such as respiratory distress and neurological system disorders ranging from motor disorders to seizures. Apart from that, fat embolism can also disrupt the coagulation system so that thrombocytopenia can occur. In this patient there was tachypnea and thrombocytopenia which could be early symptoms of fat embolism. Fat embolism is a complication of long bone fractures that is rare but dangerous if not properly recognized. Immediate management of fractures and collaboration with anesthesiologists and internists are important to prevent fat embolism.

Abstract

The maternal and child health program in Sukoharjo district includes several reports on childbirth, postpartum, immunization reports, nutritional counseling, midwife courses, home visit reports, and family planning services, both in hospitals, health centers, maternity homes, and midwives. The maternal and child health surveillance that has been carried out so far has only been carried out to fill in data reports to health agencies at the central level. It has not been presented and analyzed properly, let alone disseminated the information to those who need it. Therefore, efforts are needed to improve the quality of epidemiological data and information so that planning and evaluation are well coordinated to improve the quality of the analysis results of surveillance data studies in terms of timeliness and sensitivity of reports. This research aims to determine the weaknesses in the need for a maternal-child health surveillance system and a maternal-child health surveillance system. The intervention method used is through on-the-job training. Meanwhile, district officers who have been trained previously (tiered training) train maternal and child health workers at community health centers. From the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that the maternal and child health program surveillance system is generally running well.

Abstract

Most of the unexpected events occur in the hospital wards. An Early Warning System (EWS) is a system created to identify worsening patients outside the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). EWS is one of the requirements that must be met to get hospital accreditation. Hospitals have to choose the appropriate EWS to get optimal outcomes. This study aims to describe some of the EWS in the wards that have been researched and developed, as well as their performance in predicting severe adverse events (SAE). This study is a literature review design, conducting a systematic review by selecting relevant articles on Pub Med and Science Direct using the keyword "Early Warning Systems" in the 2018-2023 period. Out of 269 articles, only 12 articles that met the criteria. The selected articles are then systematically reviewed and analyzed. Based on the extraction results of 12 articles, 9 EWS were grouped into National Early Warning Score (NEWS) and its variants, Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) and its variants, and EWS integrated with Electronic Medical Record (EMR). In choosing an EWS, hospitals must consider the complexity of the cases being managed and the capabilities of existing resources. The recommended EWS in hospital wards with limited resources is weighted EWS or EWS with combinations, such as NEWS and MEWS with variants. Meanwhile, hospitals that have used EMR can choose EWS integrated with EMR to increase their predictive value for SAE, as well as improve protocol compliance.

Abstract

The World Health Organization reported 2.7 million perineal injuries in women giving birth in 2009, reaching 6.3 million in 2020. A study was conducted to determine postpartum mothers' knowledge about kegel exercises to prevent perineal wounds. The study involved 30 respondents, with 83% having less knowledge than others. The majority had less knowledge of housework, tertiary education, and health workers. The study suggests that more knowledge is needed from health workers, electronic media, and print media. Respondents' knowledge about Kegel exercises for healing perineal wounds was based on information sources, the majority had little knowledge with health workers as many as 15 people (50%) and the minority had enough knowledge with electronic media as many as 2 people (7%).

Abstract

At the global level, the prevention of stunting is one of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Indonesia is currently working towards achieving the second Sustainable Development Goal, which entails ending hunger, ensuring food security, improving nutrition, and supporting sustainable agriculture. As a part of this objective, efforts are being made to decrease the prevalence of stunting in children by 2025. Attention towards stunting is crucial as it can adversely affect children's physical and cognitive development well into adulthood if not addressed appropriately. This paper conducted a literature review from various sources, with a focus on google scholar and prioritizing sources from the last five years, as well as research on the population in Indonesia. It was determined through the analysis of several sources that maternal, child, and environmental factors pose various risks for stunting in Indonesia. Maternal factors that may play a role in child development include the mother's age, upper arm circumference, height, breastfeeding or complementary feeding practices, early initiation of breastfeeding and food quality during pregnancy. A history of low birth weight or prematurity, male sex, neonatal illness, frequent and recurrent diarrhea, infectious diseases, and lack of immunization are among the child factors associated with developmental outcomes. Factors such as living in a low socio-economic environment, limited family education, especially maternal education, insufficient household income, open defecation in rivers, gardens or inadequate latrines, consumption of untreated drinking water and high exposure to pesticides are also associated with the prevalence of stunting.
