CORRELATION OF FEMALE SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION WITH OCCUPATIONAL BURNOUT IN MARRIED NURSE
Objective: This study aims to see the correlation between occupational burnout and sexual dysfunction in Indonesian female nurses. Material & Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted in Kardinah General Hospital, Tegal, Central Java, Indonesia between January 2022, and March 2022. An anonymous, self-administered online questionnaire was used. Our study subjects are female nurses from outpatient clinics, inpatient wards, high/intensive care unit, emergency unit, and operating theater. We distributed online questionnaires to female nurses who matched our inclusion and exclusion criteria. Occupational burnouts among nurses were assessed using Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI), while Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) was assessed using Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). Statistical analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS software ver 25.0. Results: A total of 285 nurses participated as samples of this study, 164 nurses (57.54%) were in the low workload group and 121 nurses (42.46%) in the high workload group. The prevalence of sexual dysfunction in female nurses in this study was as high as 87.7% While occupational burnout in high and low workload nurses in our study was 42.2% and 19.5%, respectively. The analysis shows a significant negative correlation between CBI score, sub scores, and burnout status to FSFI score (p < 0.05) although these correlations were weak. Our data proved that there were no independent variables that can become a predictor variable. Conclusion: Married female nurses have a relatively high occupational burnout and are prone to sexual dysfunction. This study showed statistically significant but weak correlation between occupational burnout with sexual dysfunction in married female nurses from the CBI total score, subscores and burnout status with FSFI total score and subscores in terms of lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction, and pain.

SECONDARY BLADDER CARCINOMA METASTASIS FROM OTHER ORGAN: A LITERATURE REVIEW
Objective: This review article discusses the importance of considering metastasis malignancy in the differential diagnosis of high-grade urothelial lesions. Material & Methods: The review presents a summary of metastasis of bladder carcinoma from various organs. The most common sources of secondary bladder tumors are stomach, breast, colon cancer, and melanoma. The article highlights the need for careful evaluation and further workup in patients being treated for metastatic cancer who present with hematuria and symptomatic anemia. Results: Diagnosis of secondary bladder carcinoma involves imaging, cystoscopy, and transurethral resection. Biopsies should be collected from patients with suspected urothelial bladder metastasis from other cancer origins or those with suggestive symptoms. The article emphasizes the importance of differentiating metastatic adenocarcinoma of the lung from primary bladder adenocarcinoma, especially when bladder examination does not correlate with imaging results. It also discusses the increased risk of secondary bladder carcinoma in rectal cancer survivors who have undergone radiation therapy. Conclusion: In conclusion, secondary bladder carcinoma metastasis from other organs presents a diagnostic dilemma and requires comprehensive evaluations. Healthcare professionals should consider metastasis malignancy in the differential diagnosis of high-grade urothelial lesions, especially in the absence of readily available clinical history of primary cancer.

BACTERIAL PATTERNS AND URINE CULTURE SENSITIVITY DESCRIPTION OF UROLOGY PATIENTS IN THE PAEDIATRIC POPULATION AT TERTIARY HOSPITAL
Objective: The aim of this research is to determine trends in urine culture and antibiotic resistance in pediatric urology patients in Soetomo General Hospital, January 2021-December 2023. Material & Methods: Medical record data and the microbiology laboratory database were studied retrospectively using a descriptive method. Identification of the pattern of antibiotic sensitivity for bacterial infection is the objective of the present study. Results: The most frequent bacteria cultured from 1,234 urine samples were: Escherichia coli 45%, Klebsiella pneumoniae 25%, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa 15%. E. coli exhibited high sensitivity to Meropenem (95%), Imipenem (93%), and Amikacin (90%), but strong resistance to Ampicillin (75%), Trimethopral-Sulfamethoxazole (70%), and Ciprofloxacin (65%). K. pneumoniae also displayed comparable resistance patterns. pneumoniae and P. aeruginosa, whose resistance to several drugs over the research period was clearly increasing. Conclusion: In summary, for juvenile uropathogens carbapenems and amikacin are still quite powerful therapeutic choices. These results highlight the critical requirement of responsible antibiotic use and continuous antimicrobial resistance surveillance in order to counteract increasing resistance trends and protect efficient treatment possibilities for children.

EFFECT OF PELVIC FLOOR MUSCLE BIOFEEDBACK ON IMPROVED ERECTILE FUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH LOWER URINARY TRACT SYMPTOMS: PRELIMINARY STUDY
Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of giving pelvic floor muscle biofeedback on improving erectile function in patients with LUTS. Improvement in erectile function was assessed by IIEF (International Index of Erectile Function), EHS (Erectile Hardness Score), and pelvic floor muscle strength. Improvement in LUTS symptoms was assessed by an IPSS (International Index of Prostate Symptoms). Material & Methods: This research was a randomized controlled trial study on outpatients at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital. The research subjects were divided into 2 groups, the treatment group received 10 sessions of pelvic floor muscle biofeedback and home exercise. The control group only received home exercise. Results: There were 21 LUTS patients with ED. A total of 10 subjects (50%) had mild ED, 4 subjects (20%) had moderate ED, and 6 subjects (30%) had severe ED. From the results of the study, it was found that the scores for IIEF, IPSS, EHS, slow twitch, and fast twitch were improved in the treatment group (p-value <0.05), whereas in the control group there were only improvements in IIEF and IPSS scores (p-value <0.05). Conclusion: There was an improvement in erectile function (increased IIEF score, EHS score, decreased IPSS score, and increased pelvic floor muscle strength) after pelvic floor muscle biofeedback in ED patients with LUTS for 10 sessions.

CORRELATION OF STORAGE SYMPTOMS OR OVERACTIVE BLADDER SYMPTOMS POST TRANSURETHRAL RESECTION OF THE PROSTATE WITH THE DURATION OF CATHETER USE IN A PATIENT WITH URINARY RETENTION DUE TO BENIGN PROSTATE HYPERPLASIA
Objective: Find out the correlation of catheter use duration with the incidence of overactive bladder symptoms (OABS) post Transurethral Resection of The Prostate (TURP) in patients with urinary retention due to Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH). Material & Methods: An observational analytical research correlation with a cohort approach was carried out on 29 patients with urinary retention due to BPH post TURP in five hospitals in Padang from January 2019 to August 2019. Data collected included the characteristics and duration of catheter use, which were obtained through interviews using questionnaires, while those of OABS were obtained based on the total score by using the overactive bladder symptoms score (OABSS) standard questionnaire. Results: The average duration of catheter use was 14.9 ± 8.0 days, and the average total OABSS score was 4.7 ± 2.5. Bivariate analysis results showed a positive correlation with a weak strength between the duration of catheter use and the total OABSS score (Pearson’s correlation, r = 0.396, p = 0.033). Conclusion: It is necessary to shorten the duration of catheter use to decrease the incidence and severity of OABS in patients with urinary retention due to BPH post TURP.
