FONTAN CIRCULATION AND PREGNANCY: IS IT POSSIBLE
Get PDFMore than 85% of congenital heart disease in children survive to adulthood according to recent advances in pediatric cardiology and heart surgery practice. Fifty percent of this population is made up of women, most of whom have reached child bearing age. In this group of patients, pregnancy represents a new challenge, whose natural history has been modified by surgery. In Fontan circulation, the ventricle unable to compensate for the major restriction in the bottleneck and non physiological suction have to pull blood through the lungs, although the ventricles provide the driving force for the circuit. Women with an adequate Fontan circulation can become pregnant without clinically significant long term sequele. Pre-marital and pre-pregnancy consultation is important. A close collaboration between cardiologist, obstetrician and anaesthesiologist is mandatory in order to get the best outcome of pregnancy
THE PREVALENCE OF CHILD STUNTING BEFORE AND DURING THE COVID19 PANDEMIC ERA IN GENDING DISTRICT
Get PDFBackground: In Indonesia, the first COVID-19 cases were announced on March 2, 2020. The first two cases were found in Jakarta, and the number continues to grow over time. Stunting is a condition in which children experience growth disorders so that the child's height does not match their age. The COVID-19 pandemic increases the risk of acute nutritional problems (undernutrition and malnutrition) in vulnerable groups. Even chronic nutrition problems (Stunting) can increase if the COVID-19 lockdown is set for long. However, data from the SSGI in 2019, 2020, and 2021 show a decline in the prevalence of Stunting from year to year. Purpose: This study was conducted to determine a difference in child Stunting prevalence before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Gending District. Methods: This research is an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional study. The population in this study was a child with an age range of 2-5 years before and during the COVID-19 pandemic at the Gending Public Health Center. Results: From 317 total samples, 50 stunted children were found in the period before the pandemic and 25 stunted children during a pandemic. The prevalence of child Stunting before and during the COVID-19 pandemic decreased by 28% to 16.1%. Based on the Pearson Chi-Square Test analysis test, the prevalence of Stunting was significantly (p= 0.031) different before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusion: There are differences in child Stunting prevalence before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Keywords: Pandemic, COVID-19, Stunting
ASSOCIATION BETWEEN DIABETES MELLITUS AND OCULAR ANTERIOR SEGMENT MANIFESTATIONS IN COVID-19 PATIENTS
Get PDFBackground: COVID-19 is an acute respiratory disease caused by the infection of SARS-CoV-2, which was also found to have ocular manifestations. In the previous study, SARS-CoV-2 was found in patients' conjunctival swabs and tear specimens. The SARS-CoV-2 binding sites were found on the conjunctiva and cornea of the eye. Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common comorbidities found in COVID-19 patients, at the same time, hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus increases the risk of eye infections. This study aims to determine the association between diabetes mellitus and anterior segment ocular manifestations in COVID-19 patients.Methods: This research is an observational analytic cross-sectional study. Anterior segment ocular manifestations data were collected by patient-reported questionnaire due to high infection risk.Results: In the total of 169 COVID-19 patients in this study, 35 patients (20,7%) experienced anterior segment ocular manifestations, 50 patients (29,6%) had diabetes mellitus, and 12 patients (7,1%) experienced both. The most common ocular manifestations experienced were watery eyes (34,3%), red eyes (20,0%), and blurred vision (20,0%), as well as other complaints in the form of discharge from the eyes, itching, burning, foreign body sensation, pain, and glare at the light. While 12 of 50 diabetes mellitus patients (24%) had anterior segment ocular manifestations, 23 of 119 patients without diabetes mellitus (19.32%) experienced similar conditions. The results of data analysis with Chi-Square (p≥0.05) showed no significant association.Conclusions: There is no association between diabetes mellitus and anterior segment ocular manifestations in COVID-19 patients
