Abstract

In Indonesia, life expectancy has risen significantly. The rise in life expectancy is, of course, directly proportional to the rise in the elderly population (elderly). Coronary heart disease, hypertension, metabolic disorders, and arthritis are all problems that the elderly face on a daily basis. To improve the quality of life of the elderly, preventive efforts that are tailored to their physiological needs are required. However, descriptive data on the parameters to be examined in this group are required before conducting an intervention. The authors are encouraged to know the description of total cholesterol levels in the elderly who are in the DPC Muhammadiyah Pondok Aren environment based on the background of the problems described above. Glucose, hemoglobin, and total cholesterol levels in plasma will be measured. This study collects primary data from respondents by taking finger blood samples, which are then measured using the Easy Touch® tool. Total sampling was used, and the number of samples that met the inclusion criteria was 13 people. The data is analyzed to generate distributions and percentages. The findings revealed that 85.19 percent of the elderly had normal blood glucose levels. According to age, the elderly aged 60-74 years have 83.33 percent normal blood glucose levels, while the elderly aged 75-70 years have 86.67 percent normal blood glucose levels. According to gender, elderly men with normal blood glucose levels account for approximately 84.21 percent of the population, while elderly women with normal blood glucose levels account for approximately 87.50 percent. It was determined that over half of the elderly in PSTW

Abstract

Pendahuluan: Pengertian dari gagal jantung adalah sebuah sindroma klinis dimana jantung mengalami kegagalan dalam menjalankan tugasnya baik. Fungsi dari Beta- blocker adalah menghambat adrenoreseptor beta di jantung, pembuluh darah perifer, bronkus, pankreas, dan hati. Artikel ini menjelaskan mengenai kegunaan Beta- blocker pada pasien gagal jantung dengan fraksi ejeksi yang menurun beserta pengaruhnya terhadap komorbid kardiovaskular dan non kardiovaskular.Pembahasan: Beta-blocker merupakan terapi yang direkomendasikan diberikan pada pasien heart failure dengan ejection fraction yang menurun. Obat golongan beta-blocker membantu mencegah gejala heart failure, meningkatkan remodeling ventrikel kiri, menurunkan resiko rawat inap dan kematian dini. Beta-blocker tidak digunakan pada gangguan nafas fase akut karena dapat memperburuk gagal jantung, bradikardia atau blok jantung dan hipotensi. Pemberian beta-blocker juga direkomendasikan pada pasien aritmia karena berperan dalam kontrol laju ventrikel serta memperlihatkan mortalitas yang lebih rendah dan prognosis yang lebih baik pada pasien atrial fibrilasi yang mendapatkan terapi beta-blocker.Kesimpulan: Beta-blocker direkomendasikan sebagai terapi pada pasien gagal jantung dengan fraksi ejeksi menurun. Tetapi, perlu diperhatikan adanya komorbid kardiovaskular maupun non-kardiovaskular yang dapat mempengaruhi pemberian terapi beta-blockers. Pemberian terapi beta-blocker diharapkan dapat mengurangi mortalitas atau morbiditas pada pasien gagal jantung dengan fraksi ejeksi yang berkurang (HFrEF).

Abstract

Introduction: Equitable access to primary health services is a critical element in achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC). Aims: This study aims to analyze the influence of educational level and BPJS ownership on access to primary healthcare services within the working area of Sidotopo Public Health Center (Puskesmas), Surabaya. Method: This research applied a quantitative approach with an analytical observational design utilizing a cross-sectional framework. A total of 84 respondents residing in RW 6, Sidotopo Subdistrict, were selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were obtained from structured interviews and health center records. Results: The analysis showed that among respondents with middle-level education (junior and senior high school), 61.7% had used Puskesmas services, while only 45.2% of those with higher education had done so. In contrast, respondents with BPJS were more likely to use Puskesmas services (59.2%) than those without BPJS (25.0%), with a p-value of 0.064, approaching statistical significance. Conclusion: Although the relationship between education level and access to Puskesmas services was not statistically significant, there was a tendency for individuals with middle-level education to utilize primary services more frequently. These findings indicate the need to strengthen health literacy and expand the reach and effectiveness of the BPJS program, especially among underserved population groups.   Pendahuluan: Akses yang merata terhadap layanan kesehatan primer merupakan elemen penting dalam pencapaian Universal Health Coverage (UHC). Tujuan penelitian: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh tingkat pendidikan dan kepemilikan BPJS terhadap akses layanan kesehatan primer di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Sidotopo, Surabaya. Metode: Studi ini menggunakan metode penelitian kuantitatif dengan desain observasional analitik serta pendekatan cross-sectional. Sebanyak 84 responden yang berdomisili di RW 6 Kelurahan Sidotopo dipilih dengan metode purposive sampling. Data diperoleh dari wawancara terstruktur dan catatan Puskesmas. Hasil: Analisis menunjukkan bahwa dalam kelompok responden dengan pendidikan menengah (SMP–SMA), 61,7% tercatat pernah memanfaatkan layanan Puskesmas, sementara hanya 45,2% pada kelompok berpendidikan tinggi. Sebaliknya, responden yang memiliki BPJS lebih banyak memanfaatkan layanan Puskesmas (59,2%) dibandingkan mereka yang tidak memiliki BPJS (25,0%), dengan nilai p = 0,064, yang mendekati signifikansi statistik. Kesimpulan: Meskipun hubungan antara tingkat pendidikan dan akses layanan Puskesmas tidak signifikan secara statistik, terdapat kecenderungan bahwa individu dengan pendidikan menengah lebih sering memanfaatkan layanan primer dibandingkan kelompok lainnya. Temuan ini menunjukkan perlunya penguatan literasi kesehatan dan perluasan cakupan serta efektivitas program BPJS, terutama pada kelompok masyarakat yang belum terjangkau secara optimal.

Abstract

Abstract Background: Housing quality is a critical determinant of respiratory health, particularly in flood-prone urban areas. In Dukuh Kupang, Surabaya, poor ventilation, high humidity, and overcrowding are suspected to elevate Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) risk. This study examined the association between housing quality and ARI incidence to inform urban health interventions. Methods: A mixed-methods approach was applied, combining a household survey of 80 residents from 8 neighbourhood units with key informant interviews. Housing indicators included floor type, wall type, ventilation area, humidity, temperature, and occupancy density. ARI symptoms and severity were assessed through questionnaires and clinical records. Logistic regression tested statistical associations. Results: Over 62% of houses had inadequate ventilation, 55% had high humidity, and 48.8% had high occupancy density. ARI incidence reached 71.3%, with cough (90.0%) and fever (82.5%) most common. Poor ventilation was strongly associated with ARI (OR = 4.02, 95% CI: 1.78–9.08, p < 0.01). Conclusion: Poor housing quality significantly increases ARI risk in flood-prone settlements. Improving ventilation and indoor environments should be prioritized in public health strategies.

Abstract

Ginger rhizome (Zingiber officinale) and Tinospora crispa L. (Tinospora crispa L.) extracts contain various active compounds that have the potential to be anti-inflammatory agents. This study aims to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of ginger rhizome and Tinospora crispa L. leaf extracts, both singly and in combination, using the BSA test method. Extraction was carried out using the maceration method with 70% ethanol solvent. Anti-inflammatory activity tests were carried out in vitro at 75, 100, and 150 μg/mL concentrations by measuring the extract's ability to prevent heat-induced BSA denaturation. The yield of Tinospora crispa L. extract reached 41.39% and that of ginger extract 25.63%. The combination of 150 μg/mL extracts showed the highest anti- inflammatory activity (96.82%) of all the extract test samples. In comparison, the lowest anti-inflammatory activity was found in 75 μg/mL ginger extract, at 89.21%. Statistical tests showed a significant difference between the 75 μg/mL ginger extract and the 150 μg/mL combination (p=0.047). The combination of ginger and Tinospora crispa extract has the potential to be developed as a natural anti-inflammatory agent.

Abstract

Clinical pharmacy services (LFC) are crucial, yet their contribution to patient experience remains to be measured. This study aims to evaluate the quality of LFC-specifically, Cytostatic Drug Compounding (POS), Drug Counseling, and Drug Therapy Monitoring (DMT) - and analyze their impact on inpatient satisfaction. This study used a quantitative cross-sectional design involving a minimum of 159 inpatients receiving LFC. Data were collected using a modified SERVQUAL questionnaire and analyzed using Multiple Linear Regression Analysis. The result showed that Drug Counseling Quality was the most significant and dominant predictor of satisfaction. PTO quality had a moderate positive effect, while POS, quality was insignificant. The main contribution of this study is identifying that satisfaction is driven by visible pharmacist interactions. Strategic recommendations include prioritizing clinical commounicatuon and adopting visual technology to make technical services such as DMT more transparent.   Layanan farmasi klinis (LFC) sangat penting, namun masih perlu diukur kontribusinya terhadap pengalaman pasien. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengevaluasi kualitas LFC-Khususnya Pencampuran Obat Sitostatika (POS), Konseling Obat, dan Pemantauan Terapi Obat (PTO)-Serta menganalisis pengaruhnya terhadap kepuasan pasien rawat inap. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kuantitatif cross-sectional Dengan melibatkan minimal 150 pasien rawat inap yang menerima LFC. Data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner modifikasi SERVQUAL dan dianalisis menggunakan Analisis Regresi Linier Berganda. Hasil menunjukkan Kualitas Konseling Obat menjadi prediktor kepuasan yang paling signifikan dan dominan. Kualitas PTO memberikan pengaruh positif moderat, sementara Kualitas POS tidak signifikan. Kontribusi utama penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi bahwa kepuasan didorong oleh interaksi yang terlihat (visible quality) farmasis. Rekomendasi strategis adalah memprioritaskan komunikasi klinis dan mengadopsi teknologi visual untuk membuat layanan teknis seperti POS menjadi lebih transparan.
