Received: March, 16, 2020 Revised: April, 16, 2021 Available online: May 2021 Pregnancy workouts are exercise programs intended for pregnant women to tighten the body and prepare the necessary muscles to face labor. Labor often results in perineum tears. This study aims to determine the correlation between participation in pregnancy exercise and perineal rupture incidence. The research method used correlation analysis using a retrospective approach. The population in this study were postpartum mothers at the Sumengko village maternity cottage, Kedungpring District, Lamongan Regency. The sample was 24 respondents using the quota sampling technique and then analyzed using Chi-Square. Most respondents who participated in pregnancy workouts did not experience perineal rupture (54.2%). Meanwhile, respondents who did not participate in pregnancy workouts experienced perineal rupture (33.3%). The chi-square test result was p=0.000 (α<0.05). There was a correlation between participation in pregnancy workouts and perineal rupture incidence in women with normal delivery. Thus, pregnant women should participate in pregnancy workouts regularly to prevent perineal tears.

Received: December, 23, 2020 Revised: March, 24, 2021 Available online: May 2021 Typhoid fever is one of the endemic diseases in Indonesia caused by Salmonella typhi bacteria. A hematological examination to support medical diagnosis is complete blood count – a decrease in the number of leukocytes is often found. This study was conducted to determine the number of leukocytes in patients with typhoid fever in children. This paper aims to analyze the number of leukocytes based on age, gender, hospital length of stay, and type of antibiotic. It was a descriptive method with a cross-sectional design. The sample was all typhoid fever patients aged 1-18 years hospitalized at the dr Tadjuddin Chalid hospital, Makassar, and 75 respondents by total sampling. Data collection was carried out using secondary data from medical records of patients from January to December 2018. The data analysis used the chi-square and Spearman test. It revealed that 28% of respondents had leukopenia, 54.7% had normal leukocytes, and 17.3% had leukocytosis. Leukopenia was mostly in respondents aged 7-12 years (34.4%), males (34.1%), hospital length of stay less than seven days (26.5%), and administered with ceftriaxone (26%). The chi-square analysis results between leukocyte count and age, gender, hospital length of stay, also type of antibiotic consecutively obtained p=0.064, 0.317, 0.414, 0.923 (p>0.05). Most children with typhoid fever have a normal leukocyte. However, the leukocyte count does not correlate with age, gender, hospital length of stay, and type of antibiotic.

General anesthesia aims to increase the success rate, but inadequate management can result in a longer length of stay. This study aims to analyze patients' length of stay on MRI and CT-scan with intravenous anesthesia. This was a descriptive observational study. The data were collected retrospectively from the medical records at General Diagnostic Center Dr. Soetomo General Hospital. A total of 721 patients underwent MRI or CT Scan procedures with intravenous anesthesia during 2017-2018. The data obtained were patients' age, gender, procedure, physical status, comorbid, type of anesthesia drug, diagnostic procedure duration, length of observation in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), and overall length of stay. All MRI procedures used a midazolam-propofol combination. Meanwhile, only one CT scan procedure used those combinations, and other CT scan procedures utilized propofol. Patients undergoing MRI had a length of stay with a mean duration of 6,6,3±1,26 hours, compared to CT scans with 5,20 ±1,38 hours, due to the lengthier procedure and observation duration in the PACU. Patients undergoing MRI have a longer overall length of stay than the ones doing CT scans.

Introduction: Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been a growing trend in the field of medicine due to its broad range of application and is considered safe from bloodborne diseases. Furthermore, various studies have tried to optimize the use of autologous PRP through various preparation protocols, including PRP activation. However, most of the studies available have not evaluated the safety for intravenous delivery of PRP, especially autologous activated PRP (aaPRP). Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the safety of intravenous delivery of aaPRP. Methods: Blood was drawn from each patient and aaPRP was isolated through calcium activation and light irradiation. Each aaPRP was administered intravenously to all patients. Adverse events were documented and analyzed. Results: Six hundred eleven patients participated in this study with a total of 4244 aaPRP therapies. Quality control of autologous aaPRP showed no platelets present after both calcium activation and light irradiation. No adverse events such as allergic reaction, infection, and coagulation problems were observed on all patients over the course of the study. Conclusion: Our results showed that intravenous administration of autologous aaPRP is safe even in patients with various pathological conditions.

Introduction: Dentists and generally dental personnel work under the risk of being infected by patients suffering from COVID-19, who are unaware that they are infected. The reason lies in the fact that during dental procedures, aerosol is formed with droplets that may contain the virus. Thus, it is extremely important that dental personnel complies with adequate protective measures and equipment during clinical work. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the knowledge of COVID-19 and determine the amount of stress with dental personnel of the Faculty of Dentistry in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Methods: Health care personnel of the Faculty of Dentistry with Clinics of the University in Sarajevo have been included in the research: teaching staff, clinical doctors, dental nurses and dental technicians. The research was conducted in April 2020. It was conducted by an anonymous survey that participants filled-in. Out of 157 distributed questionnaires in paper form, 134 participants responded. The questionnaire was divided into 3 parts: 1) personal data 2) knowledge of infection COVID-19 (diagnostic methods, transmission pathways, prevention measures); 3) the amount of stress (feelings and thoughts) during epidemic COVID-19 with personnel. Results: The largest number of participants (61.97%) consider that COVID-19 may be transmitted from infected to a healthy person by inhalation of droplets generated through coughing of an infected person and by direct contact with aerosol dispersed from the mouth of the infected patient during dental treatment. The largest number of participants, 80 of them (59.7%) consider that the method of nucleic acid test is used in diagnosing COVID-19. COVID – 19 had a significantly larger influence on females; they showed higher extent of concern for the claim „I hardly fall asleep because of thinking about it“, „I try not to talk on this topic“ and „In my mind appear pictures in relation to this.“ (p<0.05) Conclusion: Knowledge of COVID-19 and measures of protection of health care personnel at the Faculty of dentistry with Clinics in Sarajevo is satisfactory. The largest fear of participants was fear of unconsciously transmitting the infection on people close to them and that members of their families become infected with COVID-19.

COVID – 19 had a significantly larger influence on females; they showed higher extent of concern for the claim „I hardly fall asleep because of thinking about it“, „I try not to talk on this topic“ and „In my mind appear pictures in relation to this.“ (p<0.05)\u0000Conclusion: Knowledge of COVID-19 and measures of protection of health care personnel at the Faculty of dentistry with Clinics in Sarajevo is satisfactory. The largest fear of participants was fear of unconsciously transmitting the infection on people close to them and that members of their families become infected with COVID-19.","PeriodicalId":15873,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Science","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87136971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Introduction: The role of nurses in healthcare is of great importance for the well-being of patients. Nurses are exposed to daily stress in the workplace due to the lack of staff, irregular working hours, and lack of support from the management. Such conditions greatly affect the emotional and psychological health of nurses. This study aims to explore the factor structure of the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) on the Croatian sample of nurses.Methods: A cross-sectional study on the sample of 119 nurses, using the MBI scale to assess burn-out in nurses.Results: The reliability of individual subscales expressed by Cronbach’s alpha coefficients showed that all three scales meet the criterion of internal consistency of 0.832. The obtained coefficients of internal consistency are 0.860 for the dimension of emotional exhaustion, 0.809 for the dimension of depersonalization, and 0.791 for the dimension of personal accomplishment.Conclusion: According to this research and comparative research results, we can conclude that MBI 22 can be applied as a valid and reliable burn-out assessment indicator among nursing staff.

The study of anatomy supported with human dissection is foundational to training of health science professionals. For a student, cadaver dissection offers an active learning experience. For the training of physical therapists, we created a manual that efficiently instructs the dissection of the whole body over the course of 30 laboratory periods. In the spirit of academic collegiality, this letter provides health science educators a direct download link (https://hdl.handle.net/11299/218174) to the dissection manual hosted by the University of Minnesota (USA) Digital Conservancy. No registration is required, the download is free, and the PDF file of the dissection manual can be reproduced or adapted for any educational use.
