Prevalensi Bayi Lahir Cacat (Malformasi Kongenital) Di Rumah Sakit Pendidikan Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas YARSI

Congenital Malformations was instrumental in perinatal morbidity and infant mortality. Patients with severe disorders are classified to be affected physically, mentally, and socially and require special attention. Prevalence data from various types of congenital malformations may be useful to plan primary prevention measures for such disorders. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of congenital malformations at the teaching hospitals, Faculty of Medicine, YARSI University. In this study, data were obtained from medical records in four teaching hospitals i.e. Abdul Muluk Hospital in Bandar Lampung, Lampung, Serang General Hospital in Serang, Banten, Garut General Hospital in Garut, and Gunung Jati General Hospital in Cirebon, West Java, within a period of three years i.e. 2005 to 2007. Based on ICD-10 codes, eight groups involving 18 types of birth defects were recorded. Among 25,276 babies born in four previously mentioned hospitals, 283 babies were born with congenital malformation. The prevalence of congenital malformations in Abdul Muluk Hospital was 11.31% with the frequency of 5.961/1,000 live birth, Serang Hospital was 13.78% with the frequency of 7.163/1,000 live birth, Garut Hospital was 33.92% with the frequency of 9.777/1,000 live birth and Gunung Jati Hospital was 40.99% with the frequency of 24.98/1000 live birth. Various disorders were noted, being the most common was disorder in the digestive system (25.80%), followed by the musculoskeletal system (20.49%), and the nervous system (16.61%). In conclusion, the total prevalence of congenital malformations in the teaching hospital, Faculty of Medicine, YARSI University was 1.12% with the frequency of 11.2/1000 live births. Congenital malformations were particularly prominent in Gunung Jati General Hospitals Cirebon, West Java

Populasi bakteri pada Feses Neonatus: Penelitian pendahuluan

Recent published data have outlined a relationship between the composition of the intestinal microflora and allergic inflammation, autoimmunity, chronic bowel inflammation, psychiatric, cognitive and behavioral disturbances. Factors influencing intestinal microflora are environment, genetic predisposition, diet, age, diseases, drugs, stressor. This preliminary study is to establish local reference of microbial flora in neonates. This study included samples taken from 20 neonates, age 1 – 7 days, from a private hospital in Jakarta. All samples were sent to microbiology laboratory without transport media and processed immediately. Bacteriological cultures for aerob and anaerob bacteria were performed according to the standard methods. Aerob and anaerob bacterial species were isolated from all samples, ranged 2 – 5 species per sample. Enterobacteriaceae were found to be dominant isolates (25% - 75%); followed by Streptococcus anhaemolyticus (60%), Staphylococcus epidermidis (40%), Staphylococcus aureus (5%),Clostridium difficile (5%), Bacteroides fragilis (5%), Bifidobacterium sp. (10%), Lactobacillus sp. (5%) and yeast (5%). These data indicated that aerob and facultative anaerob bacteria were predominant in neonates. However Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus and Clostridium difficile could be found. Further studies are needed to confirm this finding using larger number of samples and involving various age group

Pemanfaatan darah manusia yang kadaluarsa sebagai pengganti darah domba dalam pembuatan media Agar Darah Plat (ADP)

The use of blood agar media to grow and to isolate the pathogenic bacteria, and to compare the hemolytic ability of the bacteria is well known. The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of using expired human blood as substitute for the sheep blood agar media. In this study five days before expired and five days after expired human blood were washed once, twice and centrifuged. Sheep blood was used as positive control and five days after and before expired blood without treatment was used as negative control. The prepared media were used to grow six isolates wild strain bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus B haemolyticus,Streptococcus y haemolyticus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Vibrio El Tor and Clostridium perfringens). The result indicated that blood agar medium, prepared using human blood which was nearly expired or expired, have the same results in culture growth of the tested bacteria compared to the standard blood agar had media using sheep blood

Knowledge and Attitudes of Health Science and Non-Health Sciences in the Use of Antibiotics in DKI Jakarta Province and Their Review from Islamic Perspectives

Background: Antibiotics are used to treat infectious diseases caused by bacteria, but because of the public's perception that killing antibiotics can be used for all diseases, and the easy access to antibiotics due to poor supervision causes the rationality of using antibiotics to be doubted. Antibiotics used not according to the rules will cause serious problems such as side effects of these drugs and antibiotic resistance.Methods: The method used is by distributing questionnaires to health and non-health sciences in DKI Jakarta Province. The number of samples is 161 people using stratified sampling technique.Results: The results showed that in the knowledge category, health sciences had good knowledge of 33%, while non-health sciences had good knowledge of 6.6%. From the overall cross tabulation of 161 people, the majority of respondents had a good level of knowledge and a positive attitude of 81.1%.Conclusion: The conclusion in this study is that health sciences have more broad insight to use antibiotics better when compared to non-health sciences. The ability of health professionals must be strengthened to prescribe and administer antibiotics appropriately and to communicate effectively with patients. Governments should promote specific information on the rational use of antibiotics and AMR to certain target groups
