Stroke is the disease that most often causes death in Indonesia. According to Riskesdas 2007, the prevalence of stroke in Indonesia is 8.3 per 1000. This study aims to determine differences in hypertension risk factors for ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke in stroke patients at UKI General Hospital in 2017. This research was conducted by analyzing secondary data from patient medical record status using a cross-sectional study design. The results showed that there were patients with ischemic stroke (85.8%) and hemorrhagic (14.2%) with hypertension (74.02%), and characteristics of age > 60 years (49.6%), male (59.1%) %), and most of the patients had high school education or more (63.0%). Based on the different test analyses, there was a statistically significant difference between the risk factors for hypertension in hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic strokes. Key words: Stroke, Risk Factors, Hypertension
Jakarta citizens use the ojek as their daily transportation because it is cheap, easy, and fast and also because that happens every day. Ojek is transportation driven by a driver who has to sit for an extended amount of time. Low back pain is one of the risk factors that could make an ojek driver riskier to have a musculoskeletal disturbance. This research aims to determine the relationship between age, body mass index, working period, length of work, physical activity, work position, and smoking habit with low back pain complaints on ojek drivers in South Jakarta. This research is an analytical observational with cross-sectional study research, the sampling methods being used as a simple random sampling technique with 92 respondents. According to the result of the research, it could be summarized that there is a relationship between working period(p=0.004), smoking habits(=0.045), and work position(p=0.028), and there is no relation between age, length of working, physical activity, body mass index with low back pain incidence on ojek driver at South Jakarta. Key words: Age, Working Period, Smoking Habit, Excercise, Body Mass Index, work Position .
Stroke is the second most common cause of death and the leading cause of disability worldwide. Hemorrhagic stroke occurs in 15% of stroke cases. Increased leukocyte counts in the acute phase of hemorrhagic stroke are believed to be related to the incidence of early neurological deterioration. This study aims to determine the relationship between increased leukocyte count and early neurological deterioration in hemorrhagic stroke patients while being treated at UKI General Hospital. This research is analytic research with a cross-sectional design. There were 38 research subjects. The sample was selected using total sampling with specified inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study subjects were grouped into leukocytosis with leukocyte values > 11,000/µL blood and normoleukocytes with leukocyte ranges ranging from 4000-11000/µL blood. The data used is secondary data. The results of the study were processed using the SPSS computer program. It was found that early neurological deterioration in patients with leukocytosis was significantly higher than in patients with normoleucosis, with a Relative Risk of early neurological deterioration in patients with leukocytosis of 3.003 (CI 95%); p=0.031). A significant relationship exists between increased leukocyte count (leukocytosis) upon admission and early neurological deterioration while being treated for hemorrhagic stroke patients at the UKI General Hospital.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
