Covid infection risks among non-medical staff in healthcare facilities may not be as high as physicians and nurses. However, healthcare facilities should understand infection risk among non-medical staff who works during the pandemic. This study describes several factors associated with Covid-19 infection among medical recorders. A descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach observed 124 medical record officers in Central Java Province from January to June 2021. This study measured socio-demographic factors, job characteristics, infection prevention and control (IPC) efforts, and Covid-19 infection through an online questionnaire with Kobotoolbox. Data analyze performed in descriptive and bivariate analysis. Most respondents said personal protective equipment (PPE) availability was adequate and had received IPC training. Socio-demographic factors, PPE availability, IPC training, and occupation were significantly unrelated to covid 19 infections. Having infected co-workers was related to covid 19 transmissions. Covid-19 cases proportion mostly in respondents who work in type C and D hospitals, never or rarely available PPE, received IPC training, worked <7 hours/day, and medical record staff. Healthcare facilities should pay more attention to PPE availability and other infection prevention and control for medical recorder staff. Further research should assess the contact history of workers with positive covid 19 both in or outside their workplace and their activities outside their workplace, PPE use compliance, and IPC training time.
Latar Belakang: Kualitas hidup orang dengan epilepsi perlu di optimalkan. Stigma memiliki peran penting terhadap kurangnya kualitas hidup orang dengan epilepsi. Faktor-faktor yang berperan terhadap stigma epilepsi di kalangan civitas akademika belum diketahui. Penelitian ini ingin membuktikan faktor-faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap pemberian stigma terhadap orang dengan epilepsi di salah satu universitas swasta di Semarang.Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan studi observasional dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Sebanyak 236 orang sivitas akademika berusia ≥18 tahun yang diambil secara purposive untuk pemilihan perguruan tinggi dan respondennya dengan proportional random sampling. Data sosiodemografi, faktor internal dan faktor eksternal individu dikumpulkan dengan cara wawancara, sedangkan pengukuran stigma menggunakan scala stigma pada orang dengan epilepsi. Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukan sebanyak 54,5 % responden memberikan stigma dengan skor ≥ 20,73. Uji regresi logistik berganda menunjukan faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap stigma pengalaman melihat serangan pada orang dengan epilepsi dengan OR=1,86 artinya pengalaman melihat serangan mempunyai kemungkinan memberikan stigma sebesar 1,8 kali dibandingkan dengan yang tidak pengalama. Sedangkan memiliki sanak/rekan dengan epilepsi mempengaruhi pemberian stigma dengan OR sebesar 0,45 yang berarti memiliki sanak keluarga/rekan dengan epilepsi sebagai protektif pemebrian stigma. Edukasi dan sosialisasi tentang epilepsi diperlukan bagi masyarakat agar stigma yang diberikan kepada ODE menjadi berkurang.Kata kunci: Stigma, epilepsi, kualitas hidup, orang dengan epilepsi (ODE)
Background and Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic has severely damaged the world economy. Due to the COVID-19 infection, hospitalization is in high demand. Numerous COVID-19 patients are treated medically, released from the hospital, and then relapse and need to undergo treatment because they test positive. This places a strain on the health services, and the number of relapses is rarely reported in the literature. The purpose of the study is to assess individual and frequency-based factors that influence readmission of COVID-19 patients. Methods: This study uses a systematic review of the literature, using the PICO strategy for the construction of the research question, the bibliographic search and the best available scientific information in the systematization. Results: The traits of the chosen studies are compiled in Table 3. In the period from March 30, 2020, to February 23, 2021, 28 studies were published. The majority of studies were carried out in China, with Wuhan reporting the highest number. There were also some studies conducted outside of China, including one from South Korea, six from the United States specifically, one from Spain, and one from Turkey. Age 65 was a risk factor for readmission or re-positive rates, which ranged from 3.6% to 67.1%. Conclusion: The hospital strictly controls Covid-19 patients before they are allowed to leave the hospital to prevent recurrence as a result of relapse in Covid-19 patients during the pandemic.
