Abstract

Introduction: Malnutrition is a serious problem in patients with COPD, it interferes with normal skeletal muscle function, with reduced muscle mass and decreased respiratory muscle strength and endurance. It also contributes to respiratory muscle dysfunction, disease severity, and disability progression. Malnutrition is associated with disease severity, associated with more severe exacerbations, and increases the length of hospital stay. Malnutrition in COPD is described with varying prevalence rates ranging from 30-60%. The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between malnutrition and quality of life in patients with COPD. Method: The research design is an observational analytic conducted from November 2023 to March 2024. The study population was COPD patients who sought treatment at the Pulmonary Polyclinic at RSCPL with a total sample using the consecutive sampling method of 91 people. Manultrition assessment by measuring TB and BW of patients when they arrived and assessing quality of life with the SGRQ questionnaire, Data processing using SPSS by correlating malnutrition with quality of life, degree of shortness of breath, and spirometry. Results: There was a significant positive correlation between malnutrition and quality of life (p=0.001) with the degree of shortness of breath (p=0.014) and spirometry (p=0.001). Conclusion: We found an association between malnutrition and quality of life, degree of breathlessness and spirometry of patients with COPD, further prospective studies in other populations are needed to validate the results of this study.

Abstract

Introduction: Adolescent is a particular transition phase especially in their development of cognitive function. Cognitive interpreted as an activity of brain which has a function to its external environment. In Pasific Asia, the prevalence of people with decreased cognitive function is 6,7%. One of the factors contributes to this problem is playing online video game. Many previous researches have analyzed the correlation between online video games and cognitive function but there is still pros and cons about this. The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between addiction to online video games and cognitive function in adolescents. Method: The method used in this study is a cross-sectional design of 56 adolescents who were selected using consecutive non-random sampling and met the inclusion criteria. Online video game addiction data is obtained from game addiction scale (GAS) questionnaire and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA-INA) is used to assess cognitive function. The relationship between two variables were analyzed using the Fisher's Exact. Results: From 56 respondents, 44,6% experienced a decrease in their cognitive function. Data shows the lowest score of domain are attention (64.3%) and memory (55.4%). The respondents who are addicted to online video games are 16.1%. Conclusion: In this study, there is no relationship between addiction to online video games and cognitive function in adolescents.

Abstract

This literature review examines the advancements and outcomes associated with Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), a minimally invasive procedure widely utilized to treat coronary artery disease. The review highlights key studies that evaluate the efficacy and safety of PCI, comparing it to traditional surgical options such as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). It explores the evolution of PCI techniques, including drug-eluting stents and optical coherence tomography, and their impact on patient outcomes, including rates of restenosis and major adverse cardiovascular events. Stents should be deployed to attain minimal residual stenosis, referred to as optimum stenting. The achievement of a substantial luminal diameter reduces the likelihood of stent thrombosis and restenosis. Patients receiving elective stent therapy are often discharged within 24 hours post-implantation, following overnight observation and monitoring. Same-day discharge may be suitable for elective patients who have an easy operation and possess a minimal risk of post-discharge complications.

Abstract

Introduction: Critically ill or injured patients can be spared the high incidence of decreased awareness of entering an emergency room that is frequently associated with involvement in emergencies. Method: The emergency department (ED) of General Hospital Indonesia was the site of this prospective, observational cohort study. We comprised all consecutive patients admitted to the emergency department from February 15th to March 16th, 2019. Results: Nineteen patients (4.5%) required airway management, while 45 patients (10.7%) necessitated ICU admittance. In total, 422 patients required airway management. The anesthesiology department received 130 emergency patient visits (30.8%) that were referred due to loss of consciousness. In general, this investigation identified 234 non-surgical emergency cases (55.5%) and 188 emergency surgery cases (44.5%). 71 cases (37.8%) of the 130 patients with the most loss of consciousness required emergency surgery. Patients who experience loss of consciousness are at risk for ICU admission, airway management, pain management, and CVC installation, as evidenced by p values (0.001) that are less than 0.05. Conclusion: The prevalence of loss of consciousness was 30.8% (130), and patients experiencing loss of consciousness are risk factors for ICU admission, airway treatment, pain management, and central venous catheter insertion.

Abstract

Introduction: According to previous research, catheter ablation reduces premature ventricular contractions and improves heart function more than pharmaceutical treatment. Gender, age, LVEF, and premature ventricular contraction origin are utilized to predict ablation success. This study aims to determine the predictors of success of the ablation procedure in patients with non-structural premature ventricular contractions. Method: This study is an observational analytical study with a retrospective cohort design to assess predictors of success of the ablation procedure in patients with non-structural premature ventricular contractions at H Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan. Results: There were 55 research subjects and the majority of patients were female, 37 people (67.3%) with an average age of 47.2 ± 12.39 years. There was a significant relationship between premature ventricular contractions originating from the RVOT and the success of the ablation procedure (p < 0.001), but there were no significant differences in ablation therapy based on gender, age and LVEF (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The origin of premature ventricular contraction from the RVOT is a predictor of the success of the ablation procedure in patients with non-structural premature ventricular contact.
