Abstract

Background: Work location influences the proportion of operators with low back pain (LBP) at a South Sumatera onshore oil and gas company. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of nonspecific chronic LBP among the company's operators, as well as the association between quantitative and qualitative mental workload and nonspecific chronic LBP. Methods: This study was cross-sectional in design, with 96 samples collected through purposive sampling. Questionnaires and physical examinations were used to collect data. Results: Nonspecific chronic LBP was found in 32.3 percent of people. According to the multivariate analysis, moderate-heavy qualitative mental workload (OR: 5.14; 95 percent CI: 1.49-17.78), being overweight (OR 9.02 95 percent CI 2.46-33.08), being a moderate-heavy smoker (OR 4.28 95 percent CI 1.29-14.26), and sitting for more than 4 hours (OR 3.61 95 percent CI 1.13-11.52) were all associated with an increased risk of having nonspecific chronic LBP. Conclusion: Nonspecific chronic LBP is common among company operators. Individual factors associated with this finding include being overweight and smoking, while occupational factors include having a moderate-heavy qualitative mental workload and long static sitting for more than 4 hours.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Job stress is a serious health problem in the 21st century because of its high incidence and impact. Nurses are known as a profession that has high risks of stress, has distinctive characteristics, and hence requires a work stress assessment instrument that suits its peculiarities. The Expanded Nursing Stress Scale (ENSS) is a nurse-specific stress assessment instrument that has high validity and reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.96) and is widely used in many countries but is not yet available in Indonesian. This study aims to obtain the Indonesian version of ENSS and evaluate its reliability and validity. Method: We applied the 10 steps of ISPOR's (International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research) transcultural adaptation method, followed by validity and reliability tests on 104 nurses at a private hospital in Jakarta. Result: The Indonesian version of the ENSS questionnaire, consisting of 57 items, was obtained. All of the items were valid, with r values ranging from 0.362 to 0.793. Cronbach's alpha was 0.956, and the reliability test value using test-retest was 0.939. Conclusion: The Indonesian version of the ENSS has proven to be valid and reliable and has excellent internal consistency. The instrument can be used to assess job stress among Indonesian nurses. Keywords: ENSS; Indonesian; work stress; nurse

Abstract

Introduction.Knowledge of hospital managers about occupational tuberculosis can affect occupational tuberculosis services in the hospital. This study aims was to identify associated factors with knowledge of hospital manager about occupational tuberculosis in order to improve occupational tuberculosis services in hospitals as seen in the four management functions. Method.Concurrent embedded mixed approaches are used in this cross-sectional study. Focus group discussions (FGD) are used in qualitative research, whereas questionnaires are used in quantitative research. The questionnaire was evaluated using the difficulty level and discriminating index tests. The ten questions were examined both univariate and bivariate. Thematic analysis was used to analyze qualitative research. The quantitative and qualitative data were then integrated. Result.Age and years of service are related to question about definition of occupational diseases and occupational diseases regulation. Education level, occupational health training, and managed occupational disease are related to question about reporting occupational tuberculosis cases. Educational background is related to question about time reporting occupational tuberculosis. Four questions have a correct response frequency of less than 50%, while six questions have a correct answer frequency greater than 50%. Conclusion.No important factor affects knowledge of hospital managers about occupational tuberculosis. Hospital managers require occupational health training to understand occupational tuberculosis.

Abstract

Background: In 2022, the Indonesian Occupational Medicine Association (IOMA) collaborated with oil and gas companies and conducted a web-based seminar (webinar) to enable participants to recognize occupational disease earlier and enhance reporting in companies. We aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the webinar in increasing the intended knowledge. Method: The webinar was separated into three batches, with different participants per batch. Using a one-group pretest-posttest design, we utilized secondary data from IOMA. The effectiveness of the webinar was determined by participants' satisfaction and knowledge as measured by pre-test and post-test. After performing item analysis, we removed poor discriminating items in pre-test and post-test ( Results: Data was gathered from 147 subjects (23.8%, 34%, and 42.2% of the three batches, respectively). Except for company status in the second batch (P = 0.045), there was no significant difference in initial knowledge based on the individual factors studied. Significant knowledge improvement was observed post-webinar in each batch compared to the initial. (P < 0.05). The correlation between satisfaction and post-test scores was negligible (r < 0.3; P > 0.05). Conclusion: The initial knowledge of oil and gas company workers in early detection and reporting of OD was low (

Abstract

Introduction. Railway workers are exposed to many occupational health risk factors that may cause oxidative stress. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity is one of the response biomarkers of oxidative stress. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted from July-October 2021. Eighty-four participants were included in this study. Data about participants’ characteristics, physical activity intensity as measured by the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) version 2, and stress levels as measured by Holmes-Rahe Stress Inventory were collected using Google Forms. The physical examination yielded data on blood pressure, ear condition, and waist circumference. Blood Superoxide dismutase activity and HbA1c levels were determined using the spectrophotometry assay method. Univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses were done using the chi-square test and logistic regression. Results. The proportion of administrative workers with high SOD activities was 78.6% compared to train drivers (33.3%). Administrative workers were 7.1 times more likely to have high SOD activity than train drivers (aOR = 7.1, p-value Conclusion. The train company administrative workers exhibited higher Superoxide Dismutase activity than train drivers. Future study and occupational health programs are needed to investigate occupational factors affecting oxidative stress to prevent potential health disorders.

Abstract

Background. As the COVID-19 pandemic occurs, those with asthma were thought to have an increased risk of infection. Question arisen whether special preparation for severe clinical outcomes might be needed for remote site workers. Method. A literature search was conducted through PubMed, Scopus and ProQuest databases, as well as hand searched. The inclusion criteria were systematic review, cohort study, retrospective study, cross sectional study, COVID-19, asthma, and ICU. Then, they were critically appraised based on Center of Evidence-Based Medicine, Oxford University, Critical Appraisal for Prognostic Studies and Systematic Reviews. Result. Three systematic review studies and three retrospective cohort studies were found. Systematic reviews by Sunjaya, et al. (2021) and Hussein, et al. (2021), also retrospective cohort study by Calmes, MD, et al. (2021) showed no significant difference in risk requiring admission to ICU for asthmatic compared to non-asthmatic (RR 1.19; CI 95%: 0.93 – 1.53; p= 0.16), (RR= 1.64, 95%CI = 0.67-3.97; p=0.27), and (OR = 1.4 (95% CI = 0.64-3.2); p =0.39), respectively. Systematic review by Liu (2021), showed no significant difference in asthma prevalence between ICU and non-ICU patients (RR, 1.19; 95% CI, 0.92-1.54; P =0 .17; I2 = 48.6%;). Cohort study by Choi, et al (2020) showed asthma was not a predictive factor for ICU admission in COVID-19 patients (OR 0.656 (95%CI= 0.295 – 1.440); p value =0.302). Contrary, cohort study by Jin, MMed, et.al (2020) showed that COVID-19 patients with asthma had a higher proportion of ICU admission than those who do not have. Conclusion COVID-19 workers with asthma does not have a higher risk of ICU admission.
