Konstruksi Hukum Perdagangan Pengaruh (Trading in Influence) dalam Tindak Pidana Korupsi

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis bentuk formulasi hukum perdagangan pengaruh (trading influence) sebagai tindak pidana korupsi di masa mendatang (ius constituendum). Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian yuridis normatif dengan menggunakan pendekatan perundang-undangan (statute), pendekatan kasus, dan pendekatan konseptual. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak adanya pengaturan perihal Trading in Influence ini sangat dilematis, mengingat belum ada ketentuan pemidanaan dalam hukum nasional terkait perbuatan Trading in Influence. Di sisi lain guna menjunjung tinggi asas legalitas, maka kepastian hukum dalam suatu negara adalah adanya ketegasan tentang berlakunya suatu aturan hukum (Lex-Certa). Namun sembari menunggu revisi Undang-Undang Pemberantasan Tindak Pidana Korupsi, tindakan yang memenuhi rumusan Trading in Influence ini tidak dapat luput begitu saja dari pemidanaan. Ketentuan pasal penyalahgunaan wewenang, suap-menyuap maupun gratifikasi membuka peluang bagi para penegak hukum untuk menjerat pelaku Trading in Influence. Sebab, hanya perlu dibuktikan bahwa penerima Trading in Influence memang merupakan penyelenggara negara atau yang memiliki suatu wewenang orang yang telah menerima uang serta janji, dan yang menurut pemberi uang tersebut. Selain itu, Penegak Hukum dapat menjadikan Trading in Influence sebagai modus operandi dalam perbuatan korupsi

SOSIALISASI PENTINGNYA MENJAGA KEBERSIHAN LINGKUNGAN DAN MENGGUNAKAN MASKER PADA MASA PANDEMI COVID-19 DI TAMAN KOTA DOMPU

Periode bulan September 2020, Kabupaten Dompu merupakan lokasi penyebaran Covid-19 terbanyak di NTB. Hal itu disebabkan oleh masyrakat yang tidak mematuhi protokol kesehatan guna mencegah penyebaran Covid-19. Selain itu kesadaran untuk menjaga kebersihan lingkungan juga masih sangat rendah. Di Taman Kota Dompu yang merupakan pusat berkumpulnya masyarakat, kebersihannya mengkhawatirkan, banyak sampah plastik dan bekas makanan atau minuman berserakan. Pengunjung bahkan penjual tidak menggunakan masker. Oleh karena itu kami turun ke lapangan untuk memberikan sosialisasi pentingnya menggunakan masker kepada pengunjung dan penjual di sana sekaligus membagikan masker kepada mereka. Setelah itu kami melakukan pembersihan Taman Kota Dompu dari sampah yang berserakan. Kegiatan kami didukung oleh Dinas Kehutanan dan Lingkungan Hidup Kabupaten Dompu dengan menambah tempat sampah di lokasi, karena tempat sampah yang ada masih kurang dan tidak terlihat oleh pengunjung. Hasilnya, pengunjung dan penjual sangat kooperatif mendukung kegiatan kami. Pengunjung bersedia untuk tetap menggunakan masker dan membuang sampah pada tempatnya. Begitu juga dengan para penjual sangat kooperatif menerima sosialisasi dari kami dan bersedia menggunakan masker yang kami berika

Development of a Patient Safety-training Program for Health Workers in Indonesia: Perspectives of Health Workers and Hospital Stakeholders

Various patient safety training has been developed internationally to further enhance the awareness and knowledge of patient safety for health professionals. However in Indonesia, the existing training is not established based on the needs of health workers. Therefore the study aim was to explore the insights from health workers, Provincial Health Office/City Health Office (PHO/CHO) and professional organizations regarding patient safety training by using the WHO’s framework in designing training. Methods: This study was qualitative research with a cross-sectional design using focus group discussion involved 16 participants from public and private hospitals, CHO/PHO and professional organizations in East Java. Data analysis was performed using thematic analysis to identify coding or themes that emerged from the focus group discussions. Results: Through consensus, the patient safety training were grouped into basic and advanced level training. Program related to effective communication was important topics that need to be prioritized especially from the hospital’s perspective. While from the hospital stakeholders perspective, topics related to building patient safety culture is prioritized. Practice-based learning is considered as better training design instead of knowledge-based. Conclusion: In conclusion, this study succeeded in identifying the needs associated with training in patient safety. There are various viewpoints from health professionals and hospital stakeholders on the criteria of patient safety training for health workers that need to be considered in developing training

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter Clinical Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of a Drug Combination of Lopinavir/Ritonavir-Azithromycin, Lopinavir/Ritonavir-Doxycycline, and Azithromycin-Hydroxychloroquine for Patients Diagnosed with Mild to Moderate COVID-19 Infections

Background. At the present time, COVID-19 vaccines are at the testing stage, and an effective treatment for COVID-19 incorporating appropriate safety measures remains the most significant obstacle to be overcome. A strategic countermeasure is, therefore, urgently required. Aim. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combination of lopinavir/ritonavir-azithromycin, lopinavir/ritonavir-doxycycline, and azithromycin-hydroxychloroquine used to treat patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 infections. Setting and Design. This study was conducted at four different clinical study sites in Indonesia. The subjects gave informed consent for their participation and were confirmed as being COVID-19-positive by means of an RT-PCR test. The present study constituted a randomized, double-blind, and multicenter clinical study of patients diagnosed with mild to moderate COVID-19 infection. Materials and Methods. Six treatment groups participated in this study: a Control group administered with a 500 mg dose of azithromycin; Group A which received a 200/50 mg dose of lopinavir/ritonavir and 500 mg of azithromycin; Group B treated with a 200/50 mg dose of lopinavir/ritonavir and 200 mg of doxycycline; Group C administered with 200 mg of hydroxychloroquine and 500 mg of azithromycin; Group D which received a 400/100 mg dose of lopinavir/ritonavir and 500 mg of azithromycin; and Group E treated with a 400/100 mg dose of lopinavir/ritonavir and 200 mg of doxycycline. Results. 754 subjects participated in this study: 694 patients (92.4%) who presented mild symptoms and 57 patients (7.6%) classified as suffering from a moderate case of COVID-19. On the third day after treatment, 91.7%–99.2% of the subjects in Groups A–E were confirmed negative by a PCR swab test compared to 26.9% in the Control group. Observation of all groups which experienced a significant decrease in virus load between day 1 and day 7 was undertaken. Other markers, such as CRP and IL-6, were significantly lower in all treatment groups (p<0.05 and p<0.0001) than in the Control group. Furthermore, IL-10 and TNF-α levels were significantly elevated in all treatment groups (p<0.0001). The administration of azithromycin to the Control group increased CRP and IL-6 levels, while reduced IL-10 and TNF-α on day 7 (p<0.0001) compared with day 1. Decreases in ALT and AST levels were observed in all groups (p<0.0001). There was an increase in creatinine in the serum level of the Control, C, D, and E groups (p<0.05), whereas the BUN level was elevated in all groups (p<0.0001). Conclusions. The study findings suggest that the administration of lopinavir/ritonavir-doxycycline, lopinavir/ritonavir-azithromycin, and azithromycin-hydroxychloroquine as a dual drug combination produced a significantly rapid PCR conversion rate to negative in three-day treatment of mild to moderate COVID-19 cases. Further studies should involve observation of older patients with severe clinical symptoms in order to collate significant amounts of demographic data
