    Background: Data from the World Health Organization (WHO) shows that there are 170 million children worldwide experiencing malnutrition, 3 million of whom leave each year due to malnutrition. Therefore, WHO recommends, all infants need to receive colostrum (first and second day milk) to fight infection and exclusively breastfed for 6 months to ensure adequate nutrition for infants. This study aims to determine the factors that influence the knowledge of midwives about early initiation of breastfeeding in the working area of the Lut Tawar City Health Center, Central Aceh Regency in 2020. Methods: The research method used is an analytical survey method with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study were all midwives in the area. The city health center serves as many as 59 people. The sampling method uses a total sampling technique that uses all members of the population as a sample. Data collection was carried out on November 15-19, 2020. Results: The results showed that respondents aged > 40 years had good knowledge, namely 64.3%, respondents with DIII education had less knowledge, namely 56.8%, respondents who had never attended breastfeeding initiation training 69.6% respondents who did not often do early initiation of breastfeeding have good knowledge that is 63.9%, respondents who do not get information about early initiation of breastfeeding mostly lack of knowledge that is 58.1%. Conclusion: Factors that influence the knowledge of midwives on early initiation of breastfeeding are education and experience participating in training related to early initiation of breastfeeding

    Background: According to the American Cancer Society, Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer death in men and women in the United States. In Indonesia, CRC ranks as the third most common malignancy in both men and women. Programmed death-ligand 1(PD-L1) is a trans-membrane receptor ligand and negative regulatory signal for T cells that is elevated in several tumors including CRC and binds to programmed death 1 (PD-1) on T cells, B cells, dendritic cells and natural killer T cells. PD-L1 expression was found in tumor cells and tumor cells that infiltrate immune cells in several malignancies, including CRC. Methods: This study is a comparative analytic cross sectional study with consecutive sampling method. This study was conducted at Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung from September to October 2021. Further statistical analysis was done SPSS version 25.0 for Windows (SPSS Inc., Chicago, Ill., USA). Results: The total sample in this study was 50 subjects with colorectal cancer patients at RSHS. The number of CRC patients who expressed PD-L1 were 23 (46%) and 27 subjects (54%). The majority of cancer patient survival 2 Years was 38 subjects (76.0%) and survivors of more than 2 years was 12 subjects (24.0%). Conclusion: There is no significant relationship between PD-L1 and survival rates in CRC patients

    Introduction: A gastric perforation is a form of hollow digestive organ perforation in which the entire thickness of the stomach wall is injured. Perforation of hollow organs can be suspected based upon the clinical picture, and the diagnosis becomes obvious through an image of free air on imaging performed. Methods: Data of patient characteristics were observed retrospectively from medical records of patients diagnosed with gastric perforation between January and December 2018. Results: Between January and December 2018, 45 patients with gastric perforation were identified, with data distributed by gender. There were 36 women (80%) and 9 men (20%) in the group. Based on the age group, 32 patients (71%) were distinguished by the age group over 40 years and 13 patients (29 %) under 40 years of age. When viewed from the location of the gastric perforations, it was found that 4 patients (9%) had a perforation in the antrum, 36 patients (80%) in the Prepylorus, and 5 patients (11.2%) in the major curvature. Data on analgesic use revealed 32 patients (71%) had a history of taking analgesics and 13 patients (29%) without a history of taking analgesics. Conclusion: In 2018, the majority of gastric perforation patients at Dr. Moewardi Hospital were female (80%), with the highest age group being over 40 years (71%) and the most gastric perforations occurring in the pylori (80%). The number of patients with gastric perforation who had previously used herbs and analgesics was higher (70%) than those who had not. Thus, the results of this retrospective study are consistent with previous research findings and can be used to continue research into the relationships (correlations) between the aforementioned variables

    Cervical cancer in Indonesia in 2018 ranks second in cancer in women in Indonesia with an incidence rate of 348.809 cases with a mortality rate of nearly 60% of the incidence, namely 207.210 deaths. Deaths from cervical cancer are projected to continue to increase and are estimated to reach 12 million deaths by 2030 if not treated properly. The incidence of cervical cancer in Indonesia is estimated to have 180.000 new cases per year and the death rate is thought to reach 75% in the first year. This death is mainly associated with the majority of newly diagnosed patients who are already at an advanced stage (70% of cases) and are already at the terminal stage at the time of diagnosis

    Get PDF
    Introduction: Uterine rupture is the discontinuation of the uterine scar that creates connection between uterine and peritoneal cavity. The most common etiology for uterine rupture is dehiscence of uterine scar tissue from previous cesarean section. In patient with uterine rupture and fetal expulsion to the peritoneal cavity, fetal survival becomes extremely poor. Therefore, it is important for clinician to understand the uterine rupture and be able to give prompt treatment in order to prevent maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Case Presentation: A 34-year-old woman, G3P2A0 38 weeks of gestation complained that she had abdominal pain, couldn’t feel her baby movement, watery discharge since 10 hours before admission. Bloody discharge and trauma were all denied. Patient underwent twice cesarean section before. Patient only had four times antenatal care with obstetrician at 24, 28, 32, and 36 weeks of gestation. She was scheduled for caesarean section at 38 weeks of gestation. Patient looked alert with low blood pressure and tachycardia. On physical examination, we found that she was pale, fundal height could not be determined, and there was no fetal heart rate detected. Speculum examination showed livide portio, closed external orifice of uterus, and inactive blood. There was positive slinger sign and Douglas cavity was bulging. Ultrasound examination showed intrauterine fetal demise, complete uterine rupture on lower segment, and positive sign of free fluid on abdominal cavity. Patient underwent operation and we found the died male neonate was in the peritoneal cavity and the placenta was still attached in the uterine cavity. We delivered the baby and placenta completely. There was uterine rupture on the previous CS scar, the edge of the uterine wound was regular with no necrosis and extended to the right side of uterus. Then, we performed hysterorrhaphy in order to stop the bleeding and repair the uterus, and we also performed tubal ligation. The died neonate had maceration grade I. Conclusion: Uterine rupture causes poor fetal and maternal prognosis. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment is really important in uterine rupture. Prevention of uterine rupture could be done by meticulous antenatal care, especially visiting to obstetrician in order to review maternal and fetal condition and determine mode of delivery

    A B S T R A C TIntroduction. Old age is related to geriatric syndrome where there are several healthproblems that often occur related to a decrease in body function and an increase inthe inflammatory process. Decrease in muscle mass, muscle strength and physicalperformance will lead to a condition of sarcopenia and frailty syndrome in the elderly.The importance of prevention so that sarcopenia does not occur in the elderly byevaluating the factors that can cause it, one of which is controlling nutritional factors(macro and micro nutrients), such as in research, namely omega-3 macronutrients.The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between serum omega-3levels with muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical performance in the elderlycommunity at Moehammad Hoesin Hospital Palembang. Methods. This research isan observational analytic study with a cross-sectional approach which wasconducted at the Integrated Geriatric Clinic Internal Medicine RSMH Palembangfrom November 2019 to November 2020. A sample of 21 people aged> 60 years wasexamined for muscle mass, muscle strength, physical performance and omega-levels. 3 serums. All data processing and analysis in this study used SPSS version25 for Windows. Results. Of the 21 subjects, it was found that women were 19people (90.5%) and 2 men (9.5%). The mean value of muscle mass was 37.65 ± 5.7,hand grip strength was 24.04 ± 5 kg, and walking speed was 6.72 ± 1.8 seconds per6 meters. There were 11 subjects with low serum omega-3 levels of 485.25 ± 110.19mg. There was a significant relationship between serum omega-3 levels and musclemass (p = 0.041) with moderate correlation strength (r = 0.448). Conclusion: Musclemass has a significant relationship with serum omega-3 levels in the elderly withmoderate strength. Meanwhile, muscle strength and physical performance did nothave a significant relationship

    Get PDF
    WHO has created a global strategy to accelerate the elimination of cervical canceras a public health problem and a world burden. Cervical cancer is a disease thatcan be prevented and cured, as long as it is detected early and treated effectively.Cervical cancer is also a disease that reflects global injustice. The burden isgreatest in low- and middle-income countries, where access to public healthservices is limited and screening and treatment for the disease has not been widelyapplied. In 2018, nearly 90% of all deaths worldwide occurred in low and middleincome countries. Furthermore, the proportion of women with cervical cancer whodie from the disease is more than 60% in these countries, more than double thenumber in many high-income countries, which is only 30%

    COVID-19 outbreak is currently being concerned for managing patients withimmunological disorders nowadays, including SLE. Lupus is a complexautoimmune disease characterized by the presence of autoantibodies that againstcell nucleus involved many organs in the body. Patients with SLE will increaserisk of severe infection because the intrinsic respond attack with their immunerespond though immunosuppressive drugs consumption, and will potentiallydamage some organs target associated with their disease. Lupus have multipleclinical manifestations with a fluctuating symptom. Patient who come with thesymptom ofbreathlessness will getworse day by day. The symptom could be felt inthe same time as fatigue, joint pain, hair loss, malar rash, oral ulcer, pleuraleffusion and swollen feet. There's a patient with antinuclear antibody positive foranti-smith and anti-Ro/SS-A. She was diagnosed with COVID-19, SLE withnephritis, haemolytic anemia, vasculitis and pleural effusions. The clinicalmanifestations of this patient indicate a COVID-19 with lupus nephritis that hassevere disease. She was being treated with methylprednisolone andhydroxychloroquine for SLE and azithromycin plus oseltamivir as a therapy forCOVID-19. The effect of hydroxychloroquine on SARS-CoV-2 was better seen inpatients with SLE who gotthe medication regularly.
