Abstract

Introduction: Indonesia introduced the NARU lung cancer screening form to assess individual risk levels for lung cancer, classifying them as low, medium, or high risk. This study aimed to analyze the characteristics of low, medium and high risk groups in Medan city. Methods: A quantitative, descriptive cross-sectional design was used, involving 100 individuals from primary health care facilities across 11 areas, who were evaluated using the 9-question NARU form. Evaluation concluded the individuals into low, medium, and high risk of lung cancer. Results: The  majority of the responded high-risk group for lung cancer, the majority were males aged 45-65 years. They had no personal or family history of cancer but were active smokers, worked in carcinogenic environments, and did not live in homes or environments with carcinogenic risks. Additionally, they had a history of COPD and/or TB. In the moderate-risk group, both males and females aged 45-65 years were included, with no personal or family cancer history. They were passive smokers, did not work in carcinogenic environments, and did not live in homes or environments with carcinogenic risks. None had a history of COPD or TB. In the low-risk group, the majority were females under 45 years. They had no personal or family cancer history, were non-smokers, did not work in carcinogenic environments, and did not live in homes or environments with carcinogenic risks. They also had no history of COPD or TB. Conclusion: The study concluded that in Medan, 48% of the population fell into the moderate-risk group for lung cancer, while 31% were in the low-risk group, and 21% were classified as high risk.

Abstract

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Adherence to TB treatment is a complex and dynamic phenomenon with various interacting factors. The characteristics of loss to follow-up patients include social, clinical, and economic characteristics. The Aim of study was to identify characteristics of loss to follow-up patients in drug-sensitive pulmonary TB in Medan. Method: This research is a descriptive study using a cross-sectional approach. All variables were measured and observed at a time during the study. The study was conducted at RSUP Adam Malik Medan and Prof. Dr. Chairuddin P. Lubis USU Hospital in loss to follow-up TB patients diagnosed bacteriologically that meet the criteria of inclusion and exclusion. This study used data from medical records and questionnaires. Independent variables include age, gender, educational level, employment, marital status, family history of lung tuberculosis, attitudes to TB treatment, social support, health services, and reasons for loss to follow-up. Results: Out of 40 patients with loss to follow-up pulmonary tuberculosis, the majority were patients in the age range of 45-65 years (n=26.65%), male (n=31.77,5%), equal level of high school education (n = 24.60%) had a fixed job (n=33.82.5%), marital status (n=33.90%), had no family history of lung tuberculosis (n=36.90%), poor attitude to TB treatment (n=36.90%), received low social support (n=51.52,5%), and received less supported health care services (n<33.82,5%). Reasons patients TB SO quit taking medication presented in this study vary, among others due to the side effects of TB drugs, patients choosing herbal drugs, already feeling healthy, laziness consuming TB medication, being embarrassed with pulmonary TB disease, not taking lung TB drugs because no one carries or has no transportation costs. Conclusion: The majority of patients with drug-sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis who quit their medication in the fields are between 46 and 65 years of age, male sex, high school graduates of equal degree, have a fixed job, marital status, have no family history of TB, have an inferior attitude to TB treatment, receive low social support, and receive less supportive health services. Reasons for loss to follow-up for SO TB patients vary, including TB drug effects, clinical, and economic.

Abstract

Introduction: Lung cancer is defined as a tumor that originates in the lung parenchyma or is located around the bronchi. The two main types are Non Small Cell Lung Carcinoma (NSCLC) and Small Cell Lung Carcinoma (SCLC). When carrying out the procedure, several bronchoscopy visualizations are assessed, such as the bronchial lumen, bronchial mucosa, secretions and bronchial anatomy. Timely bronchoscopic intervention is important for rapid and accurate diagnosis. To determine the relationship between bronchoscopic visualization and carcinoma cell type characteristics from histopathology. Method: This study was conducted with an observational analytic design conducted in a cross-sectional manner, from October 2023 to May 2024. The subjects of this study were taken from the population of lung cancer patients who were hospitalized and outpatient in the hospital, were found to be 67 samples of Non Small Cell Lung Carcinoma (NSCLC). Data included bronchoscopic visualization with lung carcinoma cell type from histopathology, were analyzed univariately and bivariately to assess the relationship between bronchoscopy visualization and lung carcinoma cell type. Results: All patients had Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (100%) are Adenocarcinoma as much as 63% and Squamous Cell Carcinoma as much as 37%. Bronchoscopy visualization shows a central location (62%), partially closed lumen (65%), smooth mucosa (64.5%), mucoid secretion (83.8%), and most often in the right main bronchus (32.2%). Conclusion: There was a significant relationship between bronchoscopy location and type of lung cancer cell (P value 0.001), as well as between mucosa and cell type (P value 0.001).

Abstract

Introduction: The main goal of asthma treatment is to control symptoms and reduce emergency department (ED) visits due to acute exacerbations. Drug delivery through inhalation is an important component of asthma management. Patients with asthma should have a good knowledge of their disease to recognize signs of worsening that can be prevented by early detection. Asthma control can be evaluated using the Asthma Control Test (ACT). To determine the effect of providing education on the use of inhalers on the degree of asthma based on the ACT in patients at Tanjungpura Regional General Hospital. Methods: This quasi-experimental study conducted from March 2024 to May 2024, used a one-group pre-test and post-test design to evaluate the effect of education via smartphone applications on asthma control (ACT). Obtained 54 patients who were diagnosed asthma at Tanjungpura Regional General Hospital. The sample consisted of asthma patients using inhalers, selected consecutively based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Most patients were female (64.8%) with ages 18-60 years (83.3%). The majority were housewives (46.2%). Post-test showed that 75.9% of patients had partial asthma control. All patients (100%) used inhalers correctly after education. There was a significant difference in ACT results before and after education (P-value 0.001) and an increase in ACT scores after the first and second education (P-value 0.002 and 0.001, respectively). Conclusion: Providing education on the use of inhalers has a positive effect on ACT scores in asthma patients, with an increase in the mean ACT score from 15.67 before education to 17.11 after the first education, and 20.96 after the second education.

Abstract

Introduction: Some studies show restrictive and obstruction disorders but still rarely describe factors such as the extent of lung lesions and the history of recurrent tuberculosis to pulmonary physology. To identify the factors affecting the lung function of patients suffering from tuberculosis sensitive to drug post-treatment in patients treated in Outpatient clinic USU Hospital and Adam Malik Hospital. Method: Data that has been collected and then processed and analyzed descriptively to see to see the frequency distribution of the subject of the study based on characteristics. Data in a categorical scale is displayed in percentages while data in a numerical  is shown in ratio values and standard deviations. The data will be processed through bivariate analysis using a chi-sqaure test with a degree of fertility p< 0.05 and be continued by multivariate analyses to find out which factor has the greatest role against the independent variable. Results: Using the enter method, it was found that only one significant independent variable influenced the lung function in patients with drug-sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis in this study is the area of the lesion (p = 0,014) with an Exp (B) value of 4,889 (95% IK = 1,386 – 17,241) which means that subjects with an advanced area of lesion would tend to be at a 4.899 times greater risk of developing an abnormal area of lung function than those with an unadvanced area. Conclusion: The extent of the lung lesion is the variable that most affects the lung function of patients with post-treatment tuberculosis in this study.
