FOREWORD
Christina Wunardi Secretary of Academic AMSA-Indonesia 2019/2020
AMSA National Competition Archive, or AMINO, is an archive of all academic works submitted to AMSA-Indonesia competitions, consisting of Pre-Conference Competition East Asian Medical Students’ Conference (PCC EAMSC), Indonesian Medical Students’ Training and Competition (IMSTC) and Pre-Conference Competition Asian Medical Students’ Conference (PCC AMSC). AMINO aims to provide a thorough overview of AMSA-Indonesia’s national competitions to all members of AMSA-Indonesia. On the first volume of AMINO, all the works of PCC EAMSC 2020: India have been compiled and are expected to draw forth inspirations and motivation in creating academic works, including Scientific Paper, Scientific Poster, Public Poster, and Clinical Case Presentation. I would like to thank and express my sincere appreciation to all the participants of PCC EAMSC 2020: India, the Academic Team and Executive Boards of AMSAIndonesia 2019/2020, and other parties that have contributed to the creation of this AMINO. Hopefully, the release of AMINO for PCC EAMSC 2020: India can enhance and intensify the academic enthusiasm and interest of all members of AMSA-Indonesia. “Enhancing Collaboration, Influencing Community” Viva AMSA!

Ghea Mangkuliguna Scientific Paper
Experience at AMSA AMSA is the very first organization that I joined since entering medical school. AMSA has given me a lot of chances, new experiences. Like they said, it is a ‘complete package’. AMSA has given me courage and opportunity to step my foot to a bigger world. AMSA has been my home and will forever be a home for me. Reasons to Join PCC EAMSC 2020 For sure, experience is what matters. It doesn’t matter if I win or lose, but I just want to give it a go, applicating what I have just learnt these past few months. The paper I have made in this competition is another steppingstone for me. Finally - I think this goes for everyone, as well - the winners of PCC will have the right to represent Indonesia at the international conference. To sum it up, it is another way to be able to attend the conference. Tips and tricks I think diligence, perseverance, and commitment. Those 3 words are the important thing to be remembered when joining a competition. Experience I have always thought this competition is very cool, but I don’t have a single clue on how to make a good paper back then. Recently, I undergo a short training to make a good paper, and I want to try taking a shot. And PCC EAMSC is coincidentally open for paper submission, so I think “why don’t we give it a go?” Sure, making a paper is very time consuming, but the process is what important, I think every second of making the paper is a great experience for me.

Ekida Rehan Firmansyah Scientific Poster
I am motivated to join AMSA because I’d like to get to know more people both in my university and outside my university. Based on what I have experienced until now as a member of AMSA-UI, I get to know many more people who also join AMSA. I also went to two national events before and I really got to make relations with many more medical faculty students all over Indonesia. As a medical student, I feel that it is very important to learn how to interact nicely with other people including new friends and the society. From AMSA, I also got to meet people who are really underprivileged and I’m grateful to be able to help them in some ways. The most significant benefit that I got beside the things I have mentioned above is how I am able to participate in a lot of academic competition. These experiences taught me a lot of things such as how to make a good literature review, systematic review, poster, and many other kinds of academic competition. To win the competition, you need to learn many new knowledges, look for help by asking the people who have won the competition, and the most important things is the eagerness to learn new things. The only thing that motivates us to join this competition is to look for a new experience and knowledge. The first thing we did was try to see the previous poster from last year’s competition.

Dandy Bachtiar Hidayat Public Poster
Experience at AMSA AMSA itself is a suitable association for me in developing academic abilities and especially in socializing among its members. So far, AMSA has always provided an opportunity for its members to develop their ability to socialize and also excel through AMSA competitions. Reasons to Join PCC EAMSC 2020 Initially my reason was, so that AMSA Jember could become Champion at PCC EAMSC This Year. But behind that I also have a reason to introduce Emergency Medicine in particular “Handling in handling CAN Snakes that are still not widely known by the public” Benefits of taking part in PCC EAMSC 2020: I discovered something new that I didn’t know about emergency medicine and can boast AMSA Jember among other AMSA universities. Tips and tricks By understanding the problems that are around us, later it will be very interesting for us to discuss / we raise in the title of the race that we will follow. For example: because in my area is an agricultural and plantation area, where there will be many people and animals who depend on nature. The risk of work accidents such as snake bites is inevitable, so there is a need to increase insight into primary and secondary prevention before the problem results in death. Experience This is my third time participating in the Poster Public Contest. so that by participating in competitions often we can learn what innovations I need to improve in order to win in existing competitions

Yehuda Tri Nugroho Supranoto Clinical Case Presentation
In my opinion, AMSA is an organization that provides many benefits for each member, especially in terms of improving academic quality, social awareness, and of course connections between medical students both nationally and internationally. I have been exposed to the benefits of AMSA since 2017 until now. One of the great benefits I felt was being able to take part in various competitions at AMSA such as the Pre Conference Competition (PCC) East-Asian Medical Students’ Conference (EAMSC). By participating in competitions like the PCC EAMSC, I think we are able to explore further our ability to write, especially in English. Indeed, sometimes it is difficult to start writing, but believe that when you start writing, it’s too bad to stop. For friends who are just starting or are undergoing the pre-clinical phase, let’s start immediately to write and take part in competitions and encourage themselves to have a competitive spirit early on. There is nothing wasted in starting something positive! It’s time for you to start something new and trust the magic of beginning! Goodluck! Viva AMSA!

The Potential of N-Myc Downstream-Regulated Gene 2 (NDRG2) as a Novel Diagnostic Biomarker for Colorectal Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Ghea Mangkuliguna1a, Abigail Tania1, Felicia1, Jenifer Nathania1 1

ABSTRACT Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of oncological death worldwide. Currently, early screening for precancerous lesions using colonoscopy is recommended to decrease mortality. Another less-invasive method to diagnose CRC is by using tumor marker, but they mostly showed significant results only in predicting patients’ outcome. As a result, more than 60% of CRC cases are not detected in early stage. Moreover, studies suggested that up to 33% of CRC patients are present as an emergency cases with ‘red-flag’ symptoms. At this point, CRC has typically reached the advanced stage where liver metastases are unresectable and 5-year survival rate is lower than 12%. Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis will investigate the association between the expression level of NDRG2 and CRC, as well as the sensitivity of specificity of NDRG2 in detecting CRC. Materials and Method: This meta-analysis is reported following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) criteria. Literature search is carried out in electronic databases, such as PubMed, EBSCO, ScienceDirect, Cochrane, and ProQuest. Odds Ratio (OR) with a confidence interval (CI) of 95% will be used to determine the association between NDRG2 promoter methylation or expression level and CRC. Pooled sensitivity and specificity will also be calculated to evaluate the diagnostic perfomance of NDRG2 promoter methylation and expression in distinguishing CRC and normal tissue. Key Findings: Ten studies were included in the meta-analysis. The current study shows that NDRG2 promoter is hypermethylated (OR=13.64, 95% CI: 7.38-25.21, p=0.14, I2=46%) in CRC and NDRG2 expression is significantly reduced (OR = 0.05; 95% CI: 0.030.07; p = 0.13; I2 = 41%) in CRC. The pooled sensitivity and specificity of NDRG2 promoter methylation in detecting CRC are 83% (95% CI: 0.75-0.90) and 86% (95% CI: 0.60-0.96), respectively. Meanwhile, the pooled sensitivity and specificity of NDRG2 expression in detecting CRC are 87% (95% CI: 0.76-0.94) and 76% (95% CI: 0.71-0.81). In addition, SROC analysis showed NDRG2 promoter methylation and NDRG2 expression have very good to excellent diagnostic accuracy. Conclusion: This systematic review and meta-analysis provide evidences suggesting NDRG2 as a potential diagnostic biomarker for colorectal cancer. Keywords: colorectal cancer, diagnostic biomarker, meta-analysis, NDRG2, systematic review

Asian Medical Students’ Association Indonesia Introduction: Cardiac arrest is leading cause of death contributing up to 10,000,000 deaths per year and up to 3,750 USD burden per-household. Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is the most common and deadly type. Currently, cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is most important for survival thus implemented, but death toll is still high. We believed that OHCA survival should be multi-discipline action. Aim: Reduce OHCA’s mortality and morbidity by modification of survival factors found in this study, thus improve its prognosis and reduce one third of premature death as aimed by The United Nations by 2030. Methods: We conducted systematic review and meta-analysis of large cohort studies (n>100,000) on general populations’ OHCA survival. Studies were acquired from four databases (n=3,560), filtered then appraised with Newcastle-Ottawa scale for quality and Cochrane risk-of-bias (n=9). Subsequently, assessed for full text and synthesized to analysis. Results: Among 486,012 subjects, we found out that age and shockable rhythm is unmodifiable but could be helped with lifestyle. Modifiable factors are grouped into two: bystander response including public location (OR=1.24; CI 95%=1.16–1.32), bystander witness (OR=1.45; CI 95%=1.36–1.56), bystander CPR (OR=1.45; CI 95%=1.36–1.56); and emergency service delivery including paramedic response <10 minutes (OR=1.55; CI 95%=1.41–1.70), ambulance physician (OR=1.52; CI 95%=1.37–1.68). Discussion: People having OHCA on public location have higher probability to get immediate CPR from bystanders. However, some studies shown that CPR is sometimes unfavorable due to lack of CPR knowledge, thus public education about CPR is needed. Besides, emergency services are important to arrive in time with competent workers, preferably physicians who are well-trained of defibrillator usage and OHCA medication regiment which could increase chance of surviving OHCA. Therefore, increase awareness of emergency medical systems’ presence, maintain good ratio of ambulance-to-population, and training health care workers for emergency conditions are essentially needed. Conclusion: OHCA survival depends on collaboration of nation: bystanders, emergency workers, inhospital workers; thus, every element should expand their own knowledge of OHCA management. This
26
effort along with perfection and publication of emergency medical service will increase survival of OHCA. More area-specified and factor-specified studies should be conducted to improve applicability.

1. Introduction Cardiac arrest is phenomenon of sudden electrical distortion in heart, whether in pacemaker and/or bundles which disturb heart activity. Cardiac arrest should be differentiated from heart attack, in which there is a blockage in vascular systems which triggers electrical rhythm changes leading to cardiac arrest. Cardiac arrest is usually caused by arrhythmia, an irregular rhythm of heart which is not dangerous on a short term, however extremely dangerous if prolonged. Some causes of arrhythmia including coronary artery disease, heart attack, cardiomyopathy, valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease, and various electrical problems in heart such as Brugada’s syndrome and long QT syndrome (Longo et al., 2012, p. 328–30). These causes are burdened by such conditions as personal and/or family history, smoking, and metabolic disorders. Cardiac arrest will reduce blood flow to brain leading to unconsciousness and brain damage if rhythm does not return to normal state. Brain damage will be followed by death as the worst complication (Yang et al., 2015, p. 1941–2). All of these take place in matter of minutes, in which chance of survival reduce by 10% each minute patients left unattended or without any bystanders (Longo et al., 2012, p. 334). Cardiac arrest could be caused by ischemic heart disease, which is world’s leading cause of death in 2016, contributing up to 10,000,000 deaths per year (WHO, 2016). It is also estimated in The United States that ischemic heart disease leads to cardiac arrest which kills more than 325,000 people yearly which are more to combination of breast cancer, lung cancer, and HIV/AIDS death toll. Cardiac arrest also causes economic burden of approximately USD 3,750 (IDR 53,000,000) per taxpayer family in The United States (Newman M, 2018). Indonesian fact sheets on 2018 also shown that cardiac arrest due to coronary heart disease contributed to 12.9% of national death, which is the highest and recently well distributed among all group of aged above 44 years which means every middle age and older share the risk almost equally (Indonesia Health Research, 2018). Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is one example of cardiac arrest, involving emptiness of systemic circulation and mechanical cardiac function loss. It is estimated that 356,461 OHCA occur every year in The United States, which build up to 55% of all cardiac arrest events in which 90% of them are
29
2 deadly (Newman M, 2018). This type of arrest is the most prone to continual brain cell death because of lack of perfusion. Various ways have been taken in order to increase survival of OHCA such as training to emergency health care workers and general populations. Even though it has positive impact on neurological outcomes, OHCA survival rate is still low as only less than 10% OHCA patient will survive (Myat A, 2018, p. 911). Prior to latest knowledge, time for cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) holds most impact on OHCA survival. However, a successful OHCA management is based on chain of survival involving public bystanders, emergency services, and in-hospital providers (Riva et al., 2019, p. 2606â&#x20AC;&#x201C;7). Based on current knowledge, importance, urgency, and multi-aspects of OHCA management, we decided to study modifiable survival factors prior to OHCA in-hospital survival rate in order to take further steps in reducing mortality and morbidity of OHCA and to improve its prognosis. It is also aimed to support sustainable development goals of United Nation which targeted to reduce by one third premature mortality from non-communicable diseases such as cancer, diabetes, respiratory disease, including cardiovascular disease by 2030 using multi-disciplinary approach in the dimension of public, emergency service, and hospital providers (United Nations, 2015). This study is also aimed to encourage Indonesia, as place where this study is conducted to increase its emergency response towards OHCA by focusing on factors which will be found on this study. 2. Methods 2.1. Search strategy We conducted systematic review of cohort studies which focused on general population who experienced OHCA as populations, survival factors as indicator with their respective controls, and survival rate as its outcome. We conducted a qualitative research guided by Cochraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s handbook (Higgins et al., 2011). We conducted searching on four databases: PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest, and ScienceDirect using queries which could be seen in table 1. Table 1. Search strategies on various databases. Database

Inclusion and exclusion criteria Search results were assessed for duplication, which further assessed, including studies which mentioned OHCA. Studies then filtered using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria are: (a) cohort/followup/population-based studies (b) general population (c) studying factors contributing to OHCA survival. Exclusion criteria are: (a) disease-centered outcome (b) studying general cardiac arrest (c) full text in other language due to researchers’ limitation to hire a translator. Holistic process of literature research could be seen in figure 1. Criteria were fitted by two reviewers independently. Any disagreements are discussed together and resolved within two authors to reach agreements.

5 2.3. Quality Assessment All nine studies are assessed further using Newcastle-Ottawa scale which converted to Agency of Healthcare Research Quality (AHRQ) standard into good, fair, or poor quality (Luchini et al., 2017,p. 82). Quality assessment using Newcastle-Ottawa scale was done with two reviewers assessed all studies respectively, which each other are blinded on others’ scoring, then discussed further after scoring was done. In addition, studies were also assessed for risk of bias using revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool with two reviewers also blinded and results discussed after assessment (Higgins et al., p. 1–66). 2.4. Qualitative and quantitative analysis We used evidence-based analysis to conduct a systematic review. two reviewers assessed studies’ outcome and highlight significant contributing factors to intra-hospital survival of OHCA independently, then discussed further which resulted in form of a table. Studies will be extracted by source, location, design, number of participants, mean age, gender, follow-up period, drop-out rate, and outcome. Agreed factors will be discussed by reviewers with regards to relation strength and mechanisms. Factors which are sufficient for quantitative analysis are admitted for meta-analysis. Factors were put as study code, log of odds ratio, and standard of error which will be calculated for study weight, fixed odds ratio and its 95% confidence interval (CI) which will be presented in forest plot. Studies were also assessed for statistical heterogeneity using chi-squared test which samples would be considered heterogenous if p-value is greater than 0.05 and using I-squared statistic which would be considered heterogenous below 50% level according to the Cochrane handbook (Ahn et al., 2018, p. 108). Heterogeneity assessment’s results will be presented in funnel plot. All qualitative statistical analyses were done using Review Manager software for iOS. 3. Results 3.1. Literature search We conducted a literature search using search strategy mentioned above and found 3,560 studies after duplication removed from PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest, and ScienceDirect. We filtered studies based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and finally retrieved 16 studies which were further assessed by full-textreading. However, four studies which presented mortality instead of survival as outcome, one study with geriatric samples, and one study with qualitative design were thus omitted and we came to a total 9 studies assessed for both qualitative and quantitative analysis.

3.2. Study characteristics We found nine studies which consisted of three retrospective and six prospective cohort studies across three continents: Asia (n=4), Europe (n=3), and America (n=2). This study involved >100,000 samples with >1,000 samples from each study, thus considered as meta-analysis of large cohort trials (Higgins et al., 2011). This study collected data from 486,012 subjects with various characteristics which have been analyzed and proven there are no chance of these characteristics to be confounding factor as they are distributed equally when the studies started as in table 2. They are mean age which distributed among >55 years, sex which was slightly to moderately dominated by male, and level of evidence which distributed among 2aâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;1b. However, there are deviance in drop-out rate by Liu et al. (2008) and length of follow up by Mathiesen et al. (2018) but do not give negative effect to the study as those studies were classified as good studies by Newcastle-Ottawa scale. This scale also has proven studies were in good condition to be assessed, even reaching full points of excellent for all studies beside of study by Liu et al. (2008), and all appraised studies were in low risks of bias according to Cochrane tools which could be seen clearly in table 3. However, studies which accumulated altogether are subject to risk of publication bias which will be explained further. 3.3. Factors contributing to survival of OHCA Based on qualitative review of two reviewers, we concluded that factors contributing to OHCA intrahospital survival could be classified as unmodifiable and modifiable, as seen in Table 4. Unmodifiable factors were older age which contributed negatively to survival according to all nine studies and shockable rhythm which contributed positively in six studies, while sex did not have any clear relation. However, we were more concerned about modifiable factors which mainly focused on multi-disciplinary actions of emergency medicine involving health care workers, emergency team, and public bystanders. These include public location as mentioned in five studies, bystander witness in seven studies, bystander CPR in eight studies, paramedic response <10 minutes in seven studies, advanced life support (ALS) skill in one study, return of spontaneous circulation unit at emergency department in one study, physician in ambulance in five study which all correlated positively to survival in addition with drug given on transport.

ABSTRACT KETAMINE Versus MIDAZOLAM as immediate Management In Acute Suicidal State: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis *Moh Anfasa Giffari M, A. Fitri Febrianty Fariadi, Nadhifah Nurul Muthiah, Ahmad Taufik Fadillah Z. *fasagifari@gmail.com Aim: This review is conducted to conclude the difference outcome between ketamine versus midazolam as immidiate management in acute suicidal state. Results are hoped to increase public awareness for suicide among public safe community. Introduction: Suicide is a global emergency that can cause death by injuring oneself with the intent to die. Deaths caused by suicide have increased worldwide. According to World Health Organization (WHO) in 2018, globally there are 800,000 people who die from suicide each year with an estimated at least 1 person who died from suicide every 40 seconds worldwide. Recently has received considerable attention in psychiatric research. Ketamine studies showed us that rapid improvement in complex mood states such as depression, and suicidality are possible with therapeutic interventions. Matherials and Methods: This Systematic Review is based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses statement (PRISMA) and organized adhering to previously recommended guidelines for transparent and comprehensive reporting of methodology and result. Results: From 4 database of journal, total a preliminary search obtained 229 articles and final 4 studies were included in meta-analysis. We compared the pooled effect size of Ketamine on Patient with suicidal ideation to control conditions in a fix-effects model. Moderate pooled effect size was observed (4 studies, n=127, z=3.27, 95% CI: -6.34-1.59, p=0.001). Conclusion : In conclusion, we found that across 4 controlled trials with 72 total participant a single ketamine infusion rapidly reduced the severity of suicidal Ideation within 24 hour compare with common modality antidepressant midazolam, based on reduction in SSI Score. It may be an acceptable and effective treatment for rapid relief of suicidal ideation. Keywords: Ketamine, Suicidal Ideation, Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis.

Project title : Interleukin-6 for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis Name of University and Author : Andi Priscillia Al-qodri of Jambi University Febi Sofiana of Jambi University ABSTRACT Aim/background Neonatal sepsis is a dangerous and common disease among infants which is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Interleukins may be helpful for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. Therefore, this study is conducted to investigate the role of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in the diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. Method In this study, databases including PubMed, EMBASE, and Google Scholar were searched up to 2019. Keywords were: Sepsis, neonatal, interleukins, prediction and diagnosis. Study inclusion criteria were: Articles about the relationship between the diagnosis of neonatal sepsis and interleukins; studies on babies; English articles and enough information from test results. Articles that had focused on adult sepsis or had used other markers except ILs or just their abstracts were available were excluded from the study. Of 100 searched studies, eventually, 6 articles has been selected for the review. Key findings The average values of IL-6 in the proposed studies showed that IL-6 above 67 pg/ml has 90% sensitivity and 70% specificity. IL-6 is a valid and primary predictive marker for neonatal infection which is relevant with severity of infection.

1. INTRODUCTION In 2010 worldwide, 7.6 million children less than 5 years old died, predominantly due to infectious causes including sepsis; neonatal deaths (in the first 28 days of life), accounted for 40% of the total lives lost 1. In 1990, both the United Nations (UN) and World Health Organization (WHO), prioritized a 2/3rd reduction in the unacceptable child mortality rate by 2015. However, in 2013, 44% of deaths in children under the age of five occurred during the neonatal period, up from 37% in 1990. Despite major advances in neonatal care and increasing research, in developed countries, four of every ten infants with sepsis die or experience major disability including significant permanent neurodevelopmental impairment.2 Prematurely born neonates experience the highest incidence and mortality of sepsis among all age groups
3â&#x20AC;&#x201C;8
. In the United States, a staggering 36% of neonates born before 28 weeks completed
gestation suffer at least one episode of blood stream infection (BSI) during their birth hospitalization with up to a 50% associated mortality 3. Compared to term infants, sepsis in preterm infants is up to 1000-fold more common and is associated with higher rates of mortality and life-long neurodevelopmental handicaps
4, 9â&#x20AC;&#x201C;13
. Of note, it is estimated that 11% of the 135 million births
globally occur before 37 weeks competed gestation (preterm), and preterm births have been increasing steadily, especially in developed countries 1, 14. Isolation of microorganisms from body fluids including blood, cerebrospinal fluid and urine are methods of gold standard for diagnosis of neonatal infection. But, microbiological culture is not available before at least 36-48 h.15 So accurate laboratory tests are required to rule out infection and reduce unnecessary antibiotic treatment.16 So hematological parameters and interleukins may be helpful for early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis.17 Many studies have tried to find valid initial reaction of cytokines for early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. 18 Inflammatory process in sepsis is very complex in terms of biochemical. Based on the results of laboratory and clinical studies, it has been clear that some pro-inflammatory cytokines reach their peak very quick within one to four hours after the onset sepsis.19 Analysis of immunological mediators may contribute to definitive and timely diagnosis of sepsis. Measuring cytokines as markers of sepsis has been taken into consideration in recent years19 and biochemical markers such as CRP, TNF-a and ILs have been evaluated as the main indicators for early detection of neonatal sepsis.20 Cytokines are polypeptide messengers with low molecular weight which are created by macrophages and lymphocytes in response to antigenic stimulations or products of inflammation.19 One of identifying factors of neonatal sepsis is measuring interleukins. So that it is proposed to increase serum levels of interleukins 6, 8 and 10 as a valuable marker for early diagnosis and prediction of sepsis consequences. 19-21

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine expressed by different cells in response to infections.22 Recently, IL-6 has been investigated for its validity in diagnosing neonatal sepsis.23 Since neonatal sepsis is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in infants, and also early detection of neonatal sepsis leads to appropriate treatment and improve neonatal outcomes, this study has systematically reviewed the diagnosis of neonatal sepsis with IL-6. 2. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY 2.2 Search Strategies A comprehensive literature search was conducted in September 1 st to September 25th 2019 using the databases PubMed, EMBASE and Google Scholar databases in order to do a systematic review and find studies including measures for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis by interleukins. We used the keywords “neonatal sepsis”, “interleukin” and “diagnosis” to search the articles. 2.3 Selection Study Inclusion criteria Articles were selected based on the following criteria: 1) Study population is the infants. 2) Neonatal sepsis is confirmed. 3) Interleukins are evaluated for detecting or predicting neonatal sepsis. 4) Articles are in Persian and English language. 5) There is sufficient data from test results. Exclusion criteria To prepare articles appropriate and relevant to the subject, the following articles were excluded: 1) Articles which had reviewed sepsis in adults or animals. 2) Articles which had used other markers than interleukins. 3) The articles that only their abstract was available. 2.4 Data Extraction Data extracted from each selected study. Extracted data from them was drawn in Excel software with following titles: name and family name of authors, year of study, study method, study area, subject group, control group, type of IL, IL measurement time, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and the results of the investigations. The quality of selected studies was assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS) criteria. No Questions

Sonawane et al., (2015) in a prospective study evaluated the efficiency of IL6 as a primary diagnostic marker of sepsis. 40 infants with risk factors, clinical signs and symptoms of sepsis as the subject group and 40 healthy infants without risk factors of sepsis were studied as the control group. IL6 had 100 pg/ml, 95.83% sensitivity, 87.50% specificity, 92% positive predictive value, 93.33% negative predictive value and 92.50% accuracy. The results showed that IL6 has maximum sensitivity and specificity compared with other septic markers (CRP, Micro-ESR). It was also found that IL-6 level is increased in patients with sepsis and itsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; increase rate is depended on the severity of sepsis. In a study by Kumar et al. (2016), IL6 with a turning point of 181 pg/ml had sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 80.1%, 85.7%, 84.6% and 81.8% respectively. Gharehbaghi et al. (2015), in a prospective study reviewed 141 preterm infants at 26-35 weeks in terms of the relation between early sepsis and increasing the levels of CRP and IL6 in plasma of umbilical cord. They reported the turning number of 18 pg/ml, 72% sensitivity and 55% specificity for diagnosis of early sepsis. In comparation, the articles that related IL-6 assessment without positive predictive value and negative predictive value are Zhao et al. (2015), in a prospective study reviewed 140 infants susceptible of having infection (49 infants with sepsis and 91 with Local infection), IL-6 had a turning point of 32 pg/ml had sensitivity, specificity of 87.8%, 79.6%. Ganesan et al. (2016), in a prospective study reviewed 40 infants susceptible of having sepsis, found that the turning point of 51,29 pg/ml had sensitivity, specificity of 100%, 62.86%. El-Sonbaty et al. (2016), in a prospective study reviewed
36 infants susceptible of having clinical sepsis, 48 infants with
confirmed sepsis by culture, they reported the turning number of 16/8 pg/ml had sensitivity, specificity of 100% and 47%. The average values of IL6 in the proposed studies showed that an IL6 above 67 pg/ml has 90% sensitivity and 70% specificity (Table 2).

4. DISCUSSION Neonatal sepsis is a global problem with very important mortality, complications and consequences. Diagnosis of neonatal sepsis may be delayed due to nonspecific symptoms and lack of positive blood culture in the early stages of sepsis. So, unnecessary treatment with antibiotics may be started before confirming sepsis diagnosis. Thus, the cost of treatment will be increased and resistance to antibiotics will also be created early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis is still considered as a major laboratory and medical challenge due to non-specific clinical signs, lack of standard boundary limit values of sepsis markers and difficulty of differentiating it from non-infectious conditions such as respiratory distress syndrome. 24-25 So, a reliable test is required for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. Because, delay in beginning treatment with antibiotics can lead to early death during the hours of onset of symptoms of infection.26 Despite that blood culture is a gold standard for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis, but, it is not actually helpful in early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis.27 IL-assessment has been approved in recent studies in order to reduce the time of diagnosis and increase the accuracy of diagnostic tests in the early of infection. Increasing cytokines may be created in normal status after childbirth and this can limit the application of cytokines as a diagnostic marker in newborns care section especially immediately after childbirth. Also, there are numerous other variables such as hypoxia, fetal distress, and premature, steroid use before calving and meconium aspiration which increase cytokines levels and limit their application in diagnosis of early neonatal sepsis. Chemokine and pro-inflammatory cytokines are essential for host defense against microbial infection, but, increase of activated proinflammatory mediators can cause harmful results and lead to extensive damages of small blood vessels, dysfunction of multiple organs and death. 28 Several interleukins with different boundary limit, sensitivity and specificity were evaluated for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. But, neonatal sepsis is still a major challenge in medicine of newborns due to the lack of a standard in the values of boundary limit of interleukins. IL6 is used in most studies for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. IL6 is a marker that recently has been taken into consideration for early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. IL6 is created by monocytes, endothelial cells, fibroblasts and lymphocytes T and B and is much more sensitive than CRP. But, it cannot be used for sepsis as a single marker due to itsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; short half time.25,29 The study results of Buck et al., showed that IL6 level reach itsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; pick at the time of admission and is non-quantifiable after 24 h. Since IL6 has a vital role in inducing the creation of CRP in liver, there is the hypothesis that this cytokine is identified in the blood in earlier levels of bacterial infection compared with CRP.30 The results of the studies showed that the average of serum level of IL6 in infants with sepsis is higher than healthy infants.31-34 So, IL6 can be applied as an important marker for early neonatal sepsis in neonates care sections.35 Since studies on adults with sepsis have shown that increasing IL6 level is along with higher mortality, it seems that this mediator is important in pathogenesis of sepsis. 36 One advantage of IL6 assessment is that itsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; level is increased at the onset of infection, while CRP reaches
54
its’ maximum concentration with delay. IL6 of umbilical cord blood is a better predictor for starting treatment immediately after birth in infants having risk factors of infection before birth compared with CRP. So, increasing concentration of IL6 and CRP is a risk factor of preterm delivery before 32 weeks.37 IL6 has the highest sensitivity (89%) and negative predictive value (91%) at the onset of infection compared with other chemical makers such as TNF and CRP.30 Hu et al., (2015) evaluated the diagnostic value of IL6 for neonatal sepsis using meta-analysis and reviewed 33 studies including 3135 infants. Sensitivity and specificity of IL6 for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis was calculated respectively 79% and 83%.37 Shahkar et al., (2011) conducted a systematic review and evaluated the role of IL6 to predict neonatal sepsis using meta-analysis method. They reviewed 13 studies including 353 infants with sepsis and 691 infants of control group. Sensitivity and specificity of IL6 were respectively 79% and 84%. According to the results of this study, IL6 is a valid marker for prediction of neonatal sepsis and can be applied for sepsis early diagnosis in neonates care units.29 Based on the results of studies, IL6 higher than 68 pg/ml has 85% sensitivity and 80% specificity. IL6 is a valid and primary predictive marker for neonatal infection which is relevant with severity of infection.35 5. CONCLUSION Wide effort has been done in order to find studies related to diagnosis and prediction of neonatal sepsis. The found studies were different in terms of methodology, method, boundary limit of interleukins and diagnostic value of interleukins. The results of the studies showed that IL6 are primary markers for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. IL6 had 90% sensitivity and 70% specificity. Combination of IL6 with other interleukins and diagnostic markers will have higher sensitivity and specificity due to its’ short half time. Despite primary diagnostic markers of neonatal sepsis, this disease is yet a major challenge in newborn medicine; it may be due to not having standard values of boundary limit of interleukins and high cost of testing. Therefore, it is helpful to conduct extensive studies to identify more interleukins and standardize the values of boundary limit of interleukins in early diagnosis of neonatal sepsis. REFERENCES 1.

Introduction: The Sample Registration System (SRS) survey that was conducted in Indonesia shows Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) as the highest cause of death in all ages after stroke, which amounted to 12.9% and included as one of medical emergency condition. In matter of second, people with coronary heart disease could facing sudden death composing coronary heart disease as emergency medical condition followed with high prevalence and incidence, high mortality and morbidity, and common risk factor in worldwide resulting management of coronary heart disease in emergency room as first line management is crucial. This initiates a question about how the coronary heart disease patients with emergency conditions were first handled and treated in hospital emergency room and is written in a form of systematic review. The aims of this systematic review is to evaluated recent guideline or Standard Operation Procedure (SOP) of coronary health disease in emergency room and give solution about this related-health issues. Method: This paper used PRISMA-P (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and MetaAnalysis Protocols) method to improve the quality of reporting. Initial search using online databases (PubMed, Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Journal of Cardiology, and American Journal of Cardiology) and other sources. In total from initial research, reviewers obtain 253 relevant articles which that were retrived, cloistered, and critically appraised and finally shorten to two articles established for this systematic review. Key Findings: From two studied reviewed in this paper, one paper have CTCA as the intervention, the second paper uses LDL-C level, evidence-based therapies, use of cardiac medications,and dyslipidemia as interventions. Conclusions: Coronary heart disease need more specific and accurate management or guideline, recent guideline majority talk about prevention and the most management in real practice still by ACLS.

Evaluating Guidelines for Treating Coronary Heart Disease in Hospital Emergency Room: A Systematic Review
Introduction Emergency situation, as defined by Indonesian ministerial regulation, is the clinical state of patient that needs medical treatment as quickly as possible, to save their lives and prevent disability. Emergency department in a hospital plays a major role for emergency management to conduct initial examination of emergency cases, resuscitation, and stabilization (Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia, 2016). Five years ago, the Sample Registration System (SRS) survey was conducted in Indonesia, showed that Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) was the highest cause of death in all ages after stroke, which amounted to 12.9% and included as one of medical emergency condition (Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia, 2017). Coronary Heart Disease or CHD (also called CAD and Coronary Artery Disease) defined as a disease in which there is a narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, usually caused by artherosclerosis, initial symptoms show chest pain, shortness of breath during exercise, and heart attack (National Cancer Institute, 2019; WHO, 2019). Coronary heart disease are epidemic in India, data show 17% of total death and 26% of adult death in India by 2001-2003 are contributed by coronary heart disease which increased to 23% of total and 32% of adult death in 2010 (Rajeev et al, 2016). All over, coronary heart disease led to 17.5 million death in 2012 and more than 75% of these death occurred in developing countries, contribute 25-30% of all cardiovascular death and approximately 70,000-90,000 individuals died each years (Rajeev et al, 2016; Thomas et al, 2006). Supplementary, study by Fabian (2016) has recently reported 15.5 million person >20 of age in USA have CHD making CHD as leading cause of death in adults in the US with every individuals have lifetime risk of developing CHD with 2 or more major risk, 37% for men and 18.3% for women (Fabian et al, 2016). As in Indonesia, CHD are estimated to cause more than 470,000 death annually with hypertension as leading risk factor by 20-25% (Mohammad, 2016). Further, risk factor of CHD including anxiety, loneliness and social isolation, job strain, tobacco cessation, lifestyle, physical inactivity, hypercholesterolemia or metabolic syndrome, genetic, diabetes, and degenerative disease (Rajeev et al, 2016; Nicole et al, 2016).
1 61
Figure 1. Prevalence of CHD in USA (Fabian et al, 2016) Pathophysiology of coronary heart disease begins with artherosclerosis, which actually develops and progresses since younger age before the acute event, artherosclerosis is kind of low inflammatory of tunica intima that are accelerated by coronary heart diseaseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s risk factor, this inflammation lead to gradual thickening of deeper layers of coronary artery and ended up with narrow the lumen of the artery to various degrees executing inadequate oxygen and blood supply to myocardium then manifests as coronary heart disease (Chris, 2014; John, 2015).
Figure 2. Pathophysiology of Artherosclerosis which lead to CHD (John,2015) 2 62
Complication of coronary heart disease is various, narrow the lumen of artery will increase blood pressure inside vein and lead to push fluid out of vein into surrounding tissue causing oedema (swelling), if oedema happen in liver prompt heart failure, other complication is irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia) happen because heart isn’t getting enough oxygen making part of heart tissue damage and effecting heartbeat become faster or slower, heart rhythm problems may impair the pumping action of the heart causing heart failure, thicker blood clot, and stroke, more complication is heart attack, occur when coronary artery becomes completely blocked, blockage will stops part of the heart muscle from getting oxygen, if this go on too long, that part of the heart muscle will die and becomes life-threatening so immediate medical attention is needed (Informed Health Independent, 2017). In matter of second, people with coronary heart disease could facing sudden death composing coronary heart disease as emergency medical condition followed with high prevalence and incidence, high mortality and morbidity, and common risk factor in worldwide resulting management of coronary heart disease in emergency room as first line management is crucial, therefore the aims of this systematic review is to evaluated recent guideline or Standard Operation Procedure (SOP) of coronary health disease in emergency room. Materials and Method A systematic review with title “Evaluating Guideline for Treating Coronary Heart Disease in Hospital Emergency Room” conducted between August – September 2019 using PRISMA-P (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols) method.

ACLS based on four CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) position: Airway, Circulation, Leader, and Support (Kah et al, 2014). The next step to overcome cardiac arrest emergency is secondary ABCD (Airway, breathing, Circulation, Differential Diagnosis) initially provide rescue breath using an ambu bag and a mask at full flow oxygen and have the person doing chest compressions pause during the 2 rescue breaths (United Medical Education, 2019).

background personnel in first line in emergency room (ER). Emergency room where people need immediate medical attention usually filled with 1-2 or maximum number is 5 general practitioners with high working hour, BLS usually found obstacle where general practitioner getting tired in middle procedure or there is no help around to help doctor with the procedure, in this systematic review we recommended people around the emergency room, such like security guard getting certificate for basic life support, especially for ACLS, this way could make basic life support procedure in ER easier. This recommendation can be entered to any hospital guideline if coronary heart disease. Limitation of this study is lack of journals discussed about guideline or management of coronary heart disease to be reviewed. Conclusion Coronary heart disease, one of emergency medical condition, with high prevalence of mortality and morbidity making coronary heart disease need accurate management or guideline, recent guideline majority talk about prevention and the most management in real practice still by ACLS. ACLS it self found its obstacle where there is limitation of general practitioner, solution for this obstacle is forming emergency team with non-medical background, such like security personnel and medical background personnel to response this emergency condition. Funding This systematic review do not funded by any organization, person, or any third party.

ABSTRACT Suicidal Ideation as a Risk Factor of Suicide in Asian Countries for Psychiatric Emergency Screening: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Case Control Studies Fabiola Cathleen*, Ayers Gilberth Ivano Kalaij, Muhammad Faza Soelaeman, Sarah Latifa Raharja *Fabiola_cathleen@yahoo.com
Introduction: Suicide is the most common psychiatric emergency which rate has increased by 60% in the last 45 years. It is the third cause of death people aged 15-44 causing a high burden in the productive group. WHO data shows that Asia is a prominent region affected by this problem because it contributes two thirds of the total amount of cases. Individual proper identification of suicidal-risk such as knowing suicidal ideation is the preferred way to prevent suicide. Unfortunately, not every emergency department physician screen the high-risk patient for suicidal ideation making it tend to be unrecognized or underestimated.
Objective: To substantiate the link between suicidal ideation and suicide for re-evaluation of pre-existing screening guidelines for high-risk individuals in psychiatric emergency setting.
Materials and method: This review was conducted based on four-phased PRISMA Statements’ flow diagram and checklist. Casecontrol studies were chosen because it induce lesser ethical issue than prospective design. For the systematic review, our inclusion criteria are: case-control studies with sample who have received psychiatric care and aged 15-44 y.o. from legitimate records, while our exclusion are: language, incomplete or inaccessible text, publications older than 2000, participants with interfering medical illnesses. For the meta analysis, only studies with suicidal ideation as an independent risk factor for suicide are included. For bias and quality assessment, Oxford’s Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) Case Control Checklist and Oxford’s critical appraisal worksheet for systematic review were used towards this review. Analysis was depicted in forest plot and funnel plot using Revman 5.3 Software for Mac.
Results: The searches yielded 641 records and final 6 studies were included in meta-analysis. The most common bias from CASP were acceptability of cases recruitment. Analysis through forest plot has shown a

statitically significant association between suicidal ideation and suicide (OR: 4.20; 95% CI 3.00-5.88; I : 2
0%; p-value<0.00001. Funnel plot assessment is symmetrical.
Discussion: Suicidal ideation is risk factor of suicide and it can be used as an indicator as a predictor of suicide conduct. Individual who reported suicidal ideation is 4.20 times more likely to commit suicide. Studies suggest that suicidal ideation should be added in suicide early screening to prevent someone completes the act. Review limitation includes few included studies and recall bias due to non-standardized and variable quality of case notes entry.
Conclusion: In conclusion, suicidal ideation can be use as a risk factor of suicide conduct in Asian countries. Suicide prevention guidelines should include suicidal ideation assessment as an important emergency management formulation.

ABSTRACT Cervical Spinal Cord Injury Emergency Treatment Comparison between Developed and Developing Country: A Systematic Review *Fandi Hendrawan, Febby Gunawan, Prasista Ariadna, Benedictus *hendrawanfandi4@gmail.com
Introduction
:
The evidence of CSCI across the world is increasing either in developed countries or developing countries. Nowadays, the world of neurosurgery is already advanced. Many techniques and technologies have been developed to reduce the injury either reduce the possibility of respiration failure, thus give the best outcome. However, in developing countries and low-income countries, there might be a different outcome between developed and developing countries. Objectives
:
This review is conducted to compare the outcomes of CSCI treatment between developing and developed countries. The results are expected to increase awareness of medical experts and practitioners of the results of procedures carried out in two very different situations with various risk factors that can occur. Materials and method : This review was conducted based on PRISMA Statementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flow diagram and checklist. Literature search in MEDLINE and EBSCO was performed, and studies reporting follow-up changes in American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) Impairment Scale (AIS) or Frankel or ASIA motor score (AMS) scales or Quality of Life were included in the systematic review. The proportion of patients with at least 1 grade of AIS/Frankel improvement, and point changes in AMS were calculated using random pooled effect analysis. Cohort studies were chosen for the purpose of follow-up. Results
:
From literature searches conducted in 2 databases and additional searches, 351 records and 13 additional researches were retrieved. The final 15 studies were included with 990 participants from retrospective and prospective cohort studies. Participants are graded with AIS or Frankel and AMS for neurological outcomes in both developed and developing countries group.
Conclusion
:
Most developed countries have advanced technologies and better healthcare system than developed countries have. Therefore, there are difference outcome between developed and developing countries.

Emergency Health Care of Refugee: A Systematic Review

Emergency Health Care of Refugee: A Systematic Review
Introduction Refugee, based on The United Nation Refugee Agency, the Refugee definition is declaratory, while article 1(A)(2) of the 1951 Convention, as amended by its 1967 Protocol, defined refugee as individual who “owing to well-founded fear of being persecuted for reason if race, religion, nationally, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of protection of that country; or who, not having a nationality and being outside country of his former habitual residence, is unable or, owing such fear, is unwilling to return it.” in Africa, Article 1(2) of the 1969 OAU Convention clarify the further definition of refugee to “every person who owing to external aggression, occupation, foreign domination or events seriously disturbing public order in either part or the whole of his country of origin or nationally, is compelled to leave his place of habitual residence in order to seek refuge in other place outside his country origin or nationally.” As final definition of refugee, based on Latin America Conclusion III of the 1984 Cartagena Declaration, refugee is defined as “person who fled their country because their lives, safety, freedom have been threatened by generalised violence, foreign aggression, internal conflicts, massive violation of human rights or other circumstances which have seriously disturbed public order.” (UNHCR, 2019). History record a major displacement crises, meanwhile nowadays have testified individuals and even families seeking refuge and protection from hostile world condition (Jimmy T. Efird and Pollie Bith-Melander, 2018). Refugees deputize a diverse group of displaced individuals with unique health issues, disease risk, culture background, civilization, and language (Jimmy T. Efird and Pollie Bith-Melander, 2018). Based on recent study by Jimmy and Pollie (2018), at latest count nearly 66 million individual have been forcibly displaced from their resident owing to conflict or persecution, with supplementary 10 million living in statelessness, roughly 20 new refugees every minute and half of them are under 18 (Jimmy T. Efird and Pollie Bith-Melander, 2018). On the other hand, based on World Health Organization (WHO) and The Office of the United Nation High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) report approximately 68.5 million individuals worldwide are currently displace with 25.4 million of these people crossing international boundaries in search of protection (World Health Organization, 2019; General Director of World Health Organization, 2019). Prevalence of refugee increased from 16 to 1 114
26 million between 2000 and 2017, and their share of the total number of international migrants increased from 9-10%, Asia hosted the largest refugee population (14.7 million), Africa the second largest hosted by 6.3 million refugee, followed by Europe with 3.5 million refugee, Northern America with 970,000 refugee, Latin America and the Caribbean with 420,000 refugee, and Oceania with 70,000 refugee (United Nations of Population Division, 2017).

Refugee got a lot negative feeling toward them and constant racist attack from recent hostile media headline and sometimes from politician’s comment (Angela Burnett and Michael Peel, 2001). Journalist Zelda Venter (2014) take down a note based on online posting from foreigners whose expressing their fear of taking advantage of limited South African resources, one person commented, “Ethiopian president should take note of this. Don’t send your sick here to be treated, our own people need it more”, other person also commented, “So now we must treat the whole damn word for free????”, unsurprisingly these kind of comment are no longer strange for society (Theresa A. Velcamp, 2016).
Figure 3. Refugee Camp Condition (Abdullah et al, 2017) Baqa’s camp, largest camp of Palestinian refugee camp in Jordan, in total have 186 household units with 99 units include in low quality (poor), 81 units include as medium, and only 6 units include as very good, those household have poor structure and maintenance with average housing unit area is 90m2-150m2, most unit are attached to dwelling, have no ventilation, and the walls suffered from erosion and cracking, these infrastructure followed by inadequate electricity and water system, in addition, Baqa’a camp is vulnerable to earthquakes because of its proximity to the Dead Sea rift valley (Jamal Alnsour and Julia Meaton, 2013). Yet, refugee also facing health care issue such as disease tracing, multidisciplinary response to disease outbreaks, refugee utilization, hematologic genetic disorder, chronic and mental health issues, trauma, injury, sexual and reproductive health, United States with 5% Korean refugee and 15% Cambodians were found to be hepatitis B positive, and 3.4% of refugee found to have tuberculosis, in Spain, 21% refugee from subSaharan Africa were chronic carriers of hepatitis B, 40% of complaint of refugee were skin complaint such as sunburn and insect bite, there were also misuse of substance, dehydration, otitis media, loss appetite, headache, backache, and other orthopaedic injuries, along with refugee in poorer camp, high rates of diabetes, hypertension, and coronary heart disease were found in people from Eastern Europe, refugee also do not meet their psychological needs, depression, anxiety, panic attack, or agoraphobia become their prior

mental distress, study of Iraqi asylum seekers in London found that these mental distress was more closely linked with poor social support than being far away from family or origin country (Angela Burnett and Michael Peel, 2001; Leigh Daynes, 2016). Communicable disease and its transmission is identic with the word “refugee”, parasitic disease may also be found with 25% of symptoms, not in least, refugee having crowded and poor sanitation condition making an ideal environment for spread of lice and pathogen, such as Borrelia recurrentis, Rickettsia prowazekii, or Bartonella quintana, louse-borne relapsing fever (LBRF), epidemic typhus, and trench fever (Angela Burnett and Michael Peel, 2001; Sally Cutler, 2015). Study by Vanessa (2012) using 187 refugees from 2009-2010 at Darwin Refugee Health Service concluded the most common disease are vitamin D deficiency (23%), hepatitis B carrier status (22%), tuberculosis infection (18%), schistosomiasis (17%), and anaemia (17%) (Vanessa et al, 2012). Other study by Peta (2018) using 291 refugee in refugee health clinic at University Hospital Geelong, were found latent tuberculosis infection (54.6%), vitamin deficiencies (15.8%), hepatitis B (11%), and schistosomiasis (11%) (Peta et al, 2018). Refugee barrier to achieve health care are: 1) Difficulty obtaining medications; 2) History of trauma or torture; 3) Lack of familiarity health care system; 4) Prioritizing of basic need; 5) Limited expertise clinical in refugee care; 6) Anti-immigrant sentiment in areas of resettlement, and etc (Ranit et al, 2017). Refugee’s initial conditions of being driven out of their hometown followed by people’s perspective about them, their own mental pressure, their burden, and difficult access with government system making refugee’s condition as emergency condition. Emergency defined as unforeseen illness or injury, emergency can be defined in two definition: 1) Emergency is urgent clinical condition which could lead to death and disability; 2) Emergency is condition which experienced by almost all people in certain area which results in death simultaneously and in large number, both definition of emergency is on the second count, if health worker get slip by a second patient could have been died, disable, or even disease outbreak (Ministry of Health Indonesia, 2018). Refugee’s condition could lead to massive and simultaneous death this makes researcher nowadays learn what could be done to solve refugee’s condition, especially in medical area, what strategy is the best way to prevent bad sanitation in refugee camp? What could we done for making equality of health in the refugee camp? What should we do to stop transmission malady?. Study related to refugee are still few, making this systematic review
4 117
aim to evaluating best strategy to overcome the problem of refugee and barrier of health access on refugee perspective. Materials and Method A systematic review of Emergency Health Access of Refugee was carried out using the PRISMA-P (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols) method. In order to find relevant journals and articles for this systematic review, studies search were conducted comprehensively and completely using search engine such as Cochrane, PubMed, Journal of Refugee Study, and Google Scholar.

Discussion Refugee with a lot of obstacle from their country of origin and looking for another hope from other country meet its barrier. Health care access for refugee still included as unaccessible and emergency condition, strategy for minimalizing these barrier should be applied as fast as possible. Barrier of health care access of refugee such as: Language Bosnian, Iraqi, and Somali refugee in United States said, “if we didn’t have someone who spoke our language, I can’t imagine how difficult life would have been” those state explain why language are important in order to access health care. People of Rohingya, Muslim group with 2% of Myanmar population moreover facing poor infant, malnutrition, waterborne illness, and lack of obstetric care, found language as barrier too, Rohingya people speak native Rohingya language while Myanmar majority speak Burmese (Syed et al, 2017; Altaf, 2015). Transportation Transportation is crucial in emergency situation yet refugee have to face this barrier, example of Greece’s refugee camp and the nearest hospital is 6-8 hours driving (Jules, 2016). Data from 103 Syrian refugee conclude 60.2% refugee found hard to access health because long distance to health facilities and 42% refugee found hard to access multiple location for tests or doctors (Merve et al, 2016). Financial/Cost The United Nations (UN) covers 75% of hospital cost for life saving, obstetric, and emergency care but refugee cannot scrape together their 25% and the funding shortfall in Lebanon making UN has only 17% of their initial numbers, estimated was needed for healthcare and cannot even subsidise life saving, emergency, and obstetric care, by October 2014, 10,000 refugee in Lebanon will not have access to life saving emergency healthcare, instead these barrier followed by Lebanon’s health system which private, expensive, and riddled with corruption (Jonathan, 2015). Three barrier above are the most barrier experience by refugee worldwide followed by socio-economic status, knowledge of health, psycho-traumatisation, culturally different concept about illness, and etc. Emergency condition in refugee making this kind of barrier should be minimalize as much as it can and strategy to overcome refugee’s barrier should
13 126
be implemented as fast as possible. Limitation of this study is only used 3 articles because journal about refugee still few and there is only one author so risk of human error high. Conclusion Refugee being in state of emergency while facing a lot of barrier, such as financial/cost, transportation, language, socio-economy, and negative stigma about them. Refugee found it hard too to access health care service, in other hand disease transmission going so fast in refugee camp followed by low sanitation. These situation making us to understand that every individual have to take part on minimalizing refugee’s barrier on health care access and found a strategy to overcome the barrier. Recommendation There is still need for further research about emergency health care of refugee especially in Asia region.

Rescue Breathing in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Does It Really Matter? An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trial with Trial Sequence Analysis and Future Insight Ignatius Ivan*, Fanny Budiman*, Rivaldi Ruby** * Fourth Year Medical Student, Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia ** Second Year Medical Student, Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia Abstract Aim: This updated systematic review and meta-analysis with Trial Sequence Analysis (TSA) aims to provide the evidence of conclusive effect for survival benefit between continuous-chest compression (CCC) versus standard (STD) cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) while reassess the quality of evidence and suggest the necessity for future research. Background: Debate between CCC-CPR and STD-CPR with interrupted rescue breathing remains controversial. Although previous meta-analyses appeared to be favoring CCC-CPR, it is estimated that many meta-analyses on intervention in critical care which are believed to be conclusive apparently may be inconclusive. Methodology: Our systematic review followed the PRISMA guidelines. We searched PubMed, ScienceDirect, EBSCOhost, and ProQuest database from 1985 to 26 September 2019 restricted to randomized controlled trial (RCT), human study, and english article. We performed quality assessment of each included study and data analyses, between-study heterogeneity evaluation and a TSA. Indicating statistical significance, we used two-sided 95% confidence interval (CI). We estimated the overall significance for the analyses with 80% power and adjusted the thresholds for Z values using O’Brien–Fleming α-spending function to allow the type-1 error risk to be restored to the desired maximum risk. The risk of a type-2 error was controlled using β-spending function and futility boundaries. Heterogeneity correction was performed based on model variance. We determined the required meta-analysis information size with 21% relative risk using the estimation between group incidences provided from the median rate across trials. When TSA revealed inconclusive result, we estimated the size of future RCT to conclude the result. The quality of evidence was analyzed using GRADE Handbook assisted with TSA. Key Findings: Our pooled results from meta-analyses is similar with previous findings. However, we found that three studies evaluated from current and previous meta-analyses appeared to be inconclusive and thus need further trials. There is a significant risk of type-1
131
error and therefore, results are potentially false positive. Quality of evidence is downgraded to moderate in this study due to serious imprecision based on findings from TSA. Our position regarding this issue is that we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have enough evidence to conclude which method of CPR is superior towards each other.

Rescue Breathing in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Does It Really Matter? An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trial with Trial Sequence Analysis and Future Insight Ignatius Ivan*, Fanny Budiman*, Rivaldi Ruby** * Fourth Year Medical Student, Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia ** Second Year Medical Student, Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia Introduction Cardiac arrest is the third leading cause of death worldwide (Gu & Li, 2017). Despite the advancement of technology nowadays, especially in handling cardiovascular disease, in hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity globally. In the developing countries, OHCA contributes around 10% of the total mortality of developing countries (Mawani et al., 2016). The key predictors of survival in OHCA patients are determined by immediate bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), early defibrillation, early emergency medical services (EMS) response, and post resuscitation care (Mawani et al., 2016). These steps are commonly known as the “chain of survival”. As part of the “chain of survival”, CPR holds a major part in increasing chances of living in OHCA patients. The goal of CPR is to maintain oxygenation until spontaneous circulation is restored (Nichol et al., 2015). Current CPR includes chest compressions and rescue breathing, either with mouth-to-mouth ventilation or artificial device. While standard chest compression (STD) include chest compressions and rescue breathing at a fixed ratio either 15:2 or 30:2, continuous chest compressions (CCC) requires no rescue breathing and thus increasing the rate of chest compressions per minute. The debate between CCC-CPR and STD-CPR with interrupted rescue breathing remains controversial, as one side offers the advantage of allowing the circulation to keep ongoing, while the STD-CPR helps with ventilation problems. The 2015 International Consensus on CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care Science with Treatment Recommendations (CoSTR) recommends continuous chest compression CPR for adults with suspected OHCA. CCC-CPR is simpler, easier to learn, and perform. AHA also stated that CCC-CPR is as effective as STDCPR for cardiac arrest at home, at work or in public (Garg et al., 2017). So, it is expected to increase the rate of OHCA patients receiving bystander CPR.
133
The increasing rate of patients receiving bystander CPR is major in strengthening the overall “chain of survival”. The willingness to perform CPR is associated with fear of acquiring infectious diseases from performing mouth-to-mouth ventilation (Zhan, Yang, Huang, He & Liu, 2017). Sense of panic and cultural beliefs also prevented many bystanders to perform CPR (Garg et al., 2017; Nofzinger et al., 2019). It is interesting to note that women with OHCA are less often receiving bystander CPR than man (Perman et al., 2019). The reasons behind this fact are fear of being accused of inappropriate touch or doing sexual assault. CCC-CPR offers higher number of chest compressions due to uninterrupted chest compressions (Gianotto-Oliveira et al., 2015). Previous studies stated that higher chest compression rates were significantly correlated with return of spontaneous circulation and better neurologic function (Lee, Hong & Oh, 2018; Nichol et al., 2015). However, the major concern of CCCCPR is rescuer’s fatigue that may impact the quality of chest compressions (Gianotto-Oliveira et al., 2015). Meanwhile, some studies (Gianotto-Oliveira et al., 2015; Shin et al., 2014) stated better overall quality of chest compression with STD-CPR. High quality chest compressions are determined by chest compression depth and associated with better patient outcomes. Chest compression depth decreases more slowly with STD-CPR method with ratio 30:2 (Lee, Hong & Oh, 2018). Although there are lots of studies stating STD-CPR as better options, the previous metaanalyses (Zhan, Yang, Huang, He & Liu, 2017; Yang, Wen, Li & Shi, 2012; Cabrini et al., 2010; Hüpfl, Selig & Nagele, 2010) appeared to be favoring CCC-CPR. Using Trial Sequence Analysis (TSA), it is revealed that many meta-analyses regarding intervention in critical care that are believed to be conclusive apparently are inconclusive (Koster et al., 2019). This might be due to lack of evaluation on risk of type-1 or type-2 errors. TSA can also quantitatively evaluate imprecision for grading of the confidence in the estimate. Many authors of meta-analysis have various methods in assessing imprecision but TSA is more reliable to evaluate imprecision (Castellini, Bruschettini, Gianola, Gluud & Moja, 2018). Previous meta-epidemiological study assessing studies from Cochrane systematic reviews showed that many studies rarely report their methods for assessing imprecision. It is estimated that review authors downgraded 48% of key outcome due to imprecision, and when re-analyzed following Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) Handbook, 64% of outcomes were downgraded. Meanwhile, when reanalyzed with TSA in addition with GRADE, reviews are downgraded up to 69%. This shows that TSA may assist the development of better evaluation.

This updated systematic review and meta-analysis aims to elucidate the current evidence of survival benefit of CCC-CPR versus STD-CPR method by using TSA in the setting of nonasphyxial OHCA while reassess the quality of evidence and suggest the necessity for future research. Methodology A structured search of the literature was conducted to identify research on the effect of CCC versus STD method in CPR of non-asphyxial OHCA to analyse survival to hospital discharge, using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) statement guideline, with a pre-determined search strategy (Appendix 1) (Moher et al., 2015). The search was conducted in PubMed, ScienceDirect, EBSCOhost, and ProQuest while restricted to randomized controlled trials, human studies, published in English, between 1985 and 26 September 2019. We complemented the search strategy using the [All Field], to include terms not found using MeSH term (Appendix 2). The search strategy identified 1486 studies. Results were imported into Endnote X9, duplicates are removed, and leaving 866 articles to review. The abstracts of these 866 articles were reviewed for relevance by two authors (II and FB), based on the following criteria: sample size justification, relevant outcome, study design, and results. After screening, 17 studies were retained for full review. Out of 17 studies, 3 studies were ultimately retained for analysis, based on following criteria: sufficient statistical power; population characteristics defined; inclusion of participant characteristic which are adult (>19 years old), non-asphyxial, OHCA patients; and results can be measured quantitatively. The other 14 studies were excluded for the following reasons: one study is an editorial letter (Gold et al., 2008), one study is a commentary (Hui et al., 2010), four studies are observational studies (Dumas et al., 2013; Kitamura et al., 2010; Panchal et al., 2013; Japanese Circulation Society Resuscitation Science Study Group, 2013), one study is an ongoing clinical trial (Brown et al., 2015), six studies are reviews (Cunningham et al., 2012; Drager et al., 2012; Meier et al., 2010; Yang et al., 2012; Yao et al., 2014; Zhan et al., 2017), and one study is in the settings of in hospital care (Nichol et al., 2015). Any disagreement will be resolved through discussion with the third author (RR). To assess the bias, we (II and FB) used the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool 2.0 (Higgins et al., 2016) (Fig. 1), which covers the following 6 domains of risk: random sequence generation (bias arising from the randomization process); allocation concealment (bias arising from the randomization process); blinding of participants and personnel (bias due to deviations from intended interventions); blinding of outcome assessment (bias in measurement of the outcome); incomplete outcome data (bias due to missing outcome data); and selective reporting (bias in
135
selection of the reported result). A third review author (RR) helped to resolve any disagreements through discussion. The risk of bias in each of these domains is scored as “low,” “high,” or “unclear.” Data analyses were performed by two authors (II and FB) using Review Manager 5.3 software (Copenhagen: The Nordic Cochrane Centre, The Cochrane Collaboration). We applied fixedeffect and random-effects models to evaluate outcomes of studies in accordance with low and considerable between-study heterogeneity, respectively (Higgins et al., 2008). Between-study heterogeneity was evaluated using the Cochran Q test (v2). We quantified inconsistency in heterogeneity by calculating the I2-value, interpreted as follows: 0–25% heterogeneity might not be important; 25–75% may represent moderate heterogeneity; and 75– 100% may represent considerable heterogeneity (Higgins et al., 2008). When more than 10 studies were available, we constructed funnel plots and evaluated their symmetry visually for publication bias. We reported the results of our analysis as a forest plot with 95% CIs. We performed a TSA, using the Trial Sequential Analysis Software (version 0.9.5.5 Beta; Copenhagen Trial Unit, Copenhagen, Denmark), as shown in Fig. 3 (Thorlund et al., 2017). In order to control the risk of a type-1 error, we adjusted the thresholds for the Z values using the O’Brien–Fleming α-spending function, allowing the type-1 error risk to be restored to the desired maximum risk. Crossing the O’Brien–Fleming α-spending boundaries with the Z-curve was used to identify statistical significance (Thorlund et al., 2017). The risk of a type-2 error was controlled using the β-spending function and futility boundaries. Crossing the futility boundaries with the Z-curve was used to determine if two interventions do not differ more than the anticipated intervention effect (Thorlund et al., 2017). A two-sided 95% CI was used to indicate statistical significance in all analyses. We determined the required meta-analysis information size with 21% relative risk, assuming STD-CPR group incidence rate of 11,6% and CCC-CPR group incidence rate of 14,04% (approximately the median rate across trials). We calculated the information size required to yield “moderate” meta-analytic evidence based on an α = 5% significance level, and β = 20% (80% power). Heterogeneity correction was based on model variance. When TSA revealed inconclusive result, we estimated the size of future RCT in order to conclude the result. Required sample size was estimated for a future RCT to achieve moderate evidence (α= 5% and β= 20%) of detecting 21% relative risk for survival to hospital discharge
136
with STD-CPR group incidence rate of 11,6% and CCC-CPR group incidence rate of 14,04%, thus enabling cumulative-Z-statistic crossed the trial sequential monitoring boundaries. Finally, the quality of evidence was evaluated according to the GRADE Handbook (Zhang et al., 2019; Zhang & Alonso-Coello et al., 2019) for risk-of-bias, inconsistency, indirectness, imprecision, and publication bias, with the level of quality classified as “high,” “moderate,” “low,” or “very low” (Zhang & Alonso-Coello et al., 2019; Balshem et al., 2011). We used GRADEpro software in presenting the quality of evidence (GRADEpro GDT, 2015). Result Study Selection The electronic search from multiple database identified a total of 1486 studies, of which 17 were eligible based on the title and abstract. By applying our inclusion and exclusion criteria, we finally included 3 RCTs in our final analysis. Study Characteristics Characteristics of the included studies are summarized in Table 1. The studies included 3031 patients (1500 on CCC-CPR group and 1531 on STD-CPR. All studies were performed in OHCA patients and stated that the updated international basic life support and advanced life support guidelines were followed strictly. Table 1.

Risk of Bias Figure 1 summarized the risk of bias based on authors judgments. Regarding random sequence generation, there was unclear risk in the study by Rea et al. (2010). Of note there was also unclear risk regarding allocation concealment by Hallstrom et al. (2000). Also, there were high risks of performance bias in the study of Rea et al. (2010) and Svensson et al. (2010).
Figure 1. Risk of bias summary: review authors’ judgements about each risk of bias item for each included study. Allocation. Randomization in study by Rea et al. (2010) was not described. The other two studies used computer to randomize the number sequence. We considered that studies belong to Rea et al., (2010) and Svensson et al. (2010) had adequate allocation concealment. In study belongs to Hallstrom et al. (2000), we considered there was an unclear risk of selection bias because the allocation was determined by a microcomputer at the dispatcher’s console and thus no further information was stated. Blinding. In study by Hallstrom et al. (2000), the EMS personnel and the emergency physicians were blinded. In the other two studies, the EMS personnel and the physicians were not blinded. The bystanders were not blinded in all studies, but they didn’t know that they were participating in the trial, so we considered this to have no effect on the studies. The fact that the participants were unconscious and not breathing normally supported the idea that the blinding of the bystanders doesn’t affect the outcome of the studies. Therefore, the risk of performance bias appears to be low on study by Hallstrom et al. (2000) and high in the other two studies (Rea et al., 2010; Svensson et al., 2010). All studies had low risks of detection bias. Two studies reported blinded outcome assessment (Hallstrom et al., 2000; Rea et al., 2010). In study by Svensson et al. (2010), data were collected
138
from EMS records and information about survival statues were collected from national registers. The data collection forms were double-checked and there are no relevant deviations were observed. The researchers also evaluated recorded calls and reviewed the data forms. There was no deviation of the information. Incomplete outcome data. The risk of attrition bias was found to be low due to low percentage of missing data in all studies. Study by Hallstrom et al., (2000) reported two participants’ data were missing. Study by Rea et al., (2010) reported the percentage of missing data was 1.7% in both groups. Study by Svensson et al., (2010) reported the percentage of missing data was 6.8%, but to compensate, the authors made a subgroup analysis excluding the districts with more than 18% participants that were lost to follow up. No difference with the main results was found. Selective reporting. The outcomes of OHCA patients have been reported as recommended by the Utstein Style in all studies. So, we considered all studies to be at low risk of reporting bias. Survival to Hospital Discharge Survival to hospital discharge was defined as the patient leaving the hospital alive post cardiac arrest event. Meta-analyses of 3 RCTs (n = 3031) showed better outcome in the CCC-CPR group. Results of the studies are summarized in Fig. 2. These studies include survival to hospital discharge as their outcome measure to evaluate the effectiveness of CCC-CPR compared to STD-CPR. The pooled results from meta-analysis showed a significance for CCC-CPR affecting survival to hospital discharge, compared to STD-CPR (211/1500 [14.1%] vs 178/1531 [11.6%], RR= 1.21[1.01-1.46], 95% CI, p=0.04). The between-study heterogeneity was not significant (I2 0%, p=0.68; Fig. 2). The likelihood of publication bias was not assessed because there were less than ten studies involved in the analysis.

Quality of Evidence The quality of evidence, evaluated as per the GRADE Handbook (Table 2), was classified as being “moderate certainty” and thus, there is a possibility that the true effect is substantially different from the estimated effect. This limitation results from serious imprecision due to results from TSA revealed that the cumulative Z curve doesn’t cross trial sequential monitoring boundary and fail to meet required size. Other certainty assessment appeared to be not serious. For risk of bias, the study has low risk of bias and across subdomains (selection of participants into the study, completeness of data, measurement of instrument, data analysis). There is low inconsistency as shown by the pooled results from meta-analysis (I2 = 0, p = 0,68). Points estimated are similar and confidence interval are overlap. No serious indirectness due to PICO and methodological elements. Based on absolute effect auto calculation from GradePRO, the difference in survival to hospital discharge is about 24 more people per 1000 following bystander administered continuous chest compression (GRADEpro GDT, 2015).

The TSA shows that the three trials failed to cross trial monitoring boundaries (red line curves above and below the traditional horizontal lines for statistical significance) to confirm or reject a better survival toward CCC-CPR group. Thus, this results is inconclusive when adjusted for sequential testing on an accumulating number of participants and furhter trials are required.

In Figure. 4, after adding 1300 additional patients for RCT from hypothetical study with assumption of STD-CPR group incidence rate of 11,6% while a CCC group incidence rate of 14,04%, TSA revealed a conclusive meta-analysis as cumulative Z curve cross the trial monitoring boundary in favor of CCC-CPR. This is necessary to eventually stop to create new trial as the result has been revealed to be conclusive with moderate evidence. Discussion
Our systematic review regarding the measurement of CCC versus STD CPR survival to hospital discharge was based on three trials of bystander-initiated CPR done in randomized controlled trial, reporting for 3031 patients. The use of CCC-CPR method produce a better survival (RR: 1.21, 95% CI: 1.01 to 1.46). It is estimated that when CCC-CPR method is applied there will be about 24 more people per 1000 to be survive to hospital discharge. Based on the survival benefit from this meta-analyses, International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) has released a consensus statement in which suggesting CCC-CPR method during CPR for OHCA. Although many meta-analyses had been done since 2010 (Zhan, Yang, Huang, He & Liu, 2017; Yang, Wen, Li & Shi, 2012; Cabrini et al., 2010; HĂźpfl, Selig & Nagele, 2010) revealed the same outcome in which favoring CCC-CPR method, our findings from database searching revealed that there are no additional studies we can include by the end of our searching. We recognized that all previous meta-analyses of randomized controlled trial has been using the same three studies while there has been no study that can conclusively elucidate the survival benefit from using CCC-CPR methods. As only three studies were available for inclusion in our analysis, we used TSA to provide more conservative estimate of the noted effect of CCCCPR method. TSA results indicated that estimated survival benefit of CCC-CPR method are inconclusive and thus, can not be accepted with the need for further trials required. Having only surpassed the conventional boundaries but not the trial monitoring boundaries, can increase the risk of type-1 error as conventional significance testing in meta-analysis fails to relate observed test statistics and p-values to the strength of the available evidence and to the number of repeated significance tests. The risk of type 1 error is 10% to 30% as repeated significance testing result updated from new study with conventional Îą=5% threshold, 1.96 (Thorlund et al., 2017). Other findings from three trials are unable to be quantitatively analyzed using pooled metaanalyses due to limited study available. One trial measure the outcome of survival to hospital admission (Hallstrom et al., 2000) and one trial analyzed the neurological outcome at hospital discharge (Rea et al., 2010). Both findings revealed no significant difference between the group.
142
All three trials included OHCA and excluded asphyxial arrests. Common cause of cardiac arrest was similar accross studies which are ventricular fibrillation, asystole, pulseless electrical activity and ventricular tachycardia. Currently there has been no study assessing the effect of different guidelines on the clinical therapy, thus the clinical heterogeneity produced due to advanced life support methods followed from different guidelines can be considered negligible. Our estimation revealed an inference on the number of new patients need to be enrolled in RCT in order to provide conclusive and moderate evidence of meta-analyses. Using ‘topping up’ a sample size method to approximate new number of patient required, we use similar risk profile and revealed a requirement of 1300 more patients needed to be randomized in future trial. We decided to downgrade one level of evidence for imprecision assessment due to failure of reaching required information size. This hasn’t been done before in previous meta-analyses as the level of evidence remain high. The quality of evidence which helps physician to make reliable clinical decisions, was deemed to be moderate, based on GRADE Handbook and thus the true effect is likely to be close to the estimate of the effect, but there is a possibility that it is substantially different. Conclusion Our pooled results from meta-analysis is similar with previous findings. However, we found that three studies evaluated from current and previous meta-analyses appeared to be inconclusive and thus need further trials. There is a significant risk of type 1 error and therefore, results are potentially false positive. Quality of evidence is downgraded to moderate in this study due to serious imprecision based on findings from TSA. Our position regarding this issue is that we don’t have enough evidence to conclude which method of CPR is superior towards each other. Recommendations For future researches, study with larger population (1300 patients with the assumption of having similar risk profile) enrolled in RCT, needs to be conducted in order to reach conclusive metaanalysis with insignificant risk of type 1 error.

Disaster Medicine : An Urgent Needs for Doctor in Indonesia A Systematic Review
Michelle Gracella, Lestari Eka Putri, Al – As’ari, Fani Nadila Faculty of Medicine and Health Science, University of Jambi – Jambi, Indonesia Aim : to present references for medical school in Indonesia can use to arrange Disaster Medicine subject for their students Background : Indonesia is a “supermarket disaster”. Indonesia is one of the five country that hit the most by natural disaster. In fact, disaster medicine is rarely implemented in medicine education in Indonesia. It is ashame, because the pysicians were frequently commanded to take a lead on facing disaster event. A practical disaster regulation in Indonesia was only reaction on field without any scientific based. Therefore disaster medicine is needed in Indonesia. Hopefully, disaster medicine can be implemented and will show better outcome in disaster preparedness in Indonesia. Method : This study using journals that earnt scientific sources : pubMed, cambridge core journal, and goggle scholar. The search using certain criteria to ensure the eligibilty and reliable on tis study. After several assesment, we got 26 journals (n=26) as material of this study. We also gathered view grey literature from GO and NGO to provide all data that is needed for butter understanding on the study. Result : From 26 journals, after the thematic analysis, we received many teaching methods that used in disaster medicine all over the world. From lectures, skill station, case study simulation, and other motivative way such as using video games or game based learning (GBL) alsro we retrieved competences that tought on distaser medicine. The compatences are include soft skill, emergency skill, and disaster preparedness regulation. Conclusion : Disaster medicine are surely needed in Indonesia as a most hitted by natural disaster. Many ways can be implement in disaster medicine. And those competences in disaster medicine can be really helpful for the physicians to act on disaster event. So, we strongly suggest to implement disaster medicine in Indonesia’s medical curriculum. Keywords : Disaster medicine, teaching, curriculum.

However, they considered that video conferencing, self-study booklets with posttest, newsletters, pamphlets, video and audio tapes are not appropriate for teaching disaster medicine. Regarding teaching methods and materials, participants thought that clinical skills laboratory in College of Medicine could be a great asset for this course. Interviewees further added that the teaching strategies, such as video demonstration and participating in drills, will be of great value in their learning.

In other health care disciplines, video games have been shown to : 1. Improve procedural skills, 2. Have been associated with improvements in communication, and 3. Have yielded changes in risk taking behavior among patients Video games are a promising asynchronous learning modality for pre-hospital care providers acquiring and maintaining disaster triage skills. 60 Seconds to Survival is a viable means for learning and honing disaster triage.

3. Clinical case discussions (10 hours, 14%) built on seminars and covered diagnoses and therapies of different medical specialties by focusing on patient cases. 4. Group work (8 hours, 11%) was used to deepen coverage of controversial aspects from different perspectives and to discuss them extensively with the students (e.g., ethics). 5. e-Learning (4 hours, 6%) was integrated into triage simulations and psychological diagnostics. Additionally, a supplemental online course was offered via the medical school’s learning management system (Blackboard Inc. Washington, DC, USA), including literature, links to useful online sources like videos, self-produced podcasts (ABCDE, psychotrauma) and interactive X-ray patient cases Important point : Even though there are possibilities to train students in triage with computer simulations, we considered live exercises with their personal sensual impressions as irreplaceable for the students’ learning experience and for making the teaching contents easier to remember, which was supported by the participants Developing an Educational Strategy for Delivering Technique/ teaching approach : an E-learning Disaster Medicine Course for A novel apps and external online resources.

Practice of Interprofessional Education as Health Provider in Emergency of Natural Disaster
Introduction Indonesia is a country that has geographical, geological, hydrological, and demographic conditions that enable to get natural disasters, whether caused by natural factors, non-natural factors, and human factors that have an impact on fatalities, natural damage, property losses, and psychological impacts. In 2018, Indonesia experienced various natural disasters, such as the Lebak-Banten Earthquake, the Brebes Landslide, the Mount Sinabung Eruption, the Lombok Earthquake, and the Palu Earthquake and Tsunami. The National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) noted that in the 2018 period there were 679 floods, 473 lands landslides, 34 abrasions, 804 tornadoes, 129 droughts, 370 forest and land fires, 21 earthquakes, 58 volcanic eruptions, 21 earthquakes, 1 tsunami, and 1 earthquake followed by a tsunami. These types of disasters can cause health crises such as the emergence of food and nutrition problems, the problem of availability of clean water, environmental sanitation problems, paralysis of health services, the emergence of post-stress cases trauma, increased potential for infectious or non-communicable diseases, and scarcity of health workers.
Figure 1. BNPB data on the number of victims and injuries period 2018 (Banjir = Flood, Tanah Longsor = landslide, Gelombang Air Pasang = Tidal Wave, Putih Beliung = White Pickaxe, Kekeringan = Drought, Kebakaran Hutan dan Lahan = Forest and Land Fire, Gempa Bumi = Earthquake, Letusan Gunung Api = Volcano Eruption, Kejadian = Incident, Meninggal = Death, Luka-luka = injury)
173
Based on the Law of Republic Indonesia, Number 24 Year 2007 concerning about Disaster Management, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the management of disaster management is a series of efforts which include the establishment of development policies that risk the occurrence of disasters, disaster prevention activities, emergency response, and rehabilitation.â&#x20AC;? Management of health problems in disaster conditions is indicated to ensure the delivery of health services for victims of disasters and refugees according to minimum standards. To minimize the impact of natural disasters, health providers play a significant role. All health provider efforts carried out in the context of prevention, mitigation, preparedness, emergency response, and recovery related with disasters carried out before, during and after disasters that are designed to provide a framework for individuals or communities who are at risk of disaster to avoid, control risk, reduce, manage and recover themselves from the effects of disaster. Health providers consist of consultants, doctors, specialist doctors, physiotherapists, midwives, nurses, pharmacists, psychologists and public health. Each health provider must have knowledge in accordance with their respective fields and the ability to work quickly, accurately, and well as a team. Aside from health providers as health human resources, they also need to know more about disaster management, including pre-disaster and post-disaster activities. Disaster conditions that require all elements of society to move quickly, especially health providers, requiring every health provider profession must focus on patients or patient center care. In patient center care, patients are the decision holders for each examination or medical action that will be given to them. If there are cases, where the patient is unconscious or something else, the family can be the patient's representative in making decisions. All actions taken by the health provider focus on the recovery of the patient, but the health provider does not only consist of one profession, but a variety of professions in one area of health, it is necessary to collaborate health providers so that patient recovery can be carried out efficiently. Collaboration of each health provider implemented based on interprofessional education. Interprofessional education occurs when two or more professions learn together to improve collaboration and service quality. Collaboration between professions is defined as a process that includes communication, decision making, and synergizing the abilities and knowledge of each profession as a team. Based on the location of Indonesia which is prone to natural disasters and the importance of collaboration between health providers to minimize the impact of natural disasters, the authors have the idea to apply the practice of interprofessional education as a health provider in the framework of natural disaster management. Interprofessional Education
174
Interprofessional education can be defined as joint learning activities carried out by two or more professions with the aim of strengthening collaborative practice. According to WHO, interprofessional education can be defined as experiences that occur when students from two or more professions learn about, from, and with each other as opportunities where two or more professions learn together. Definitions of interprofessional education are very diverse, therefore there are several aspects that must be present in the implementation and definition of interprofessional education, such us: 1) Active involvement by two or more health providers in the context of patient management; 2) The process of socializing and learning based on practice; 3) The process in which students learn with, from, and about one another, both in and across disciplines; 4) andragogical (nonhierarchical and de-centered); 5) The process of sharing knowledge and values; 6) Collaboration in patient centered care with the goal of optimizing patient health. 16 The goals of interprofessional education are to learn how each profession plays a role in an interprofessional team and to increase knowledge, skills and values in future work practices that ultimately provide later health services to patients as part of a collaborative interprofessional team. Broadly speaking about it, interprofessional education is expected to increase interprofessional collaboration where in the future interprofessional collaboration will improve the quality of health. Health Provider Health providers or health practitioners are defined as individuals or groups of people who provide health care services. Health providers consist of several types, such us: 1) Primary Care, a person who is first encountered by patients for checkups and health problems; 2) Nursing Care; 3) Drug Therapy, is a pharmacist who has been licensed and passed the specified minimum education level; 4) Specialty Care, primary care providers can refer patients to more professional health providers, namely specialty care, in a variety of specialties when needed. Health providers consist of general practitioners, specialists, dentists, assistant
physicians,
osteopathy,
podiatrists,
chiropractors,
pharmacists,

psychologists, nurses, neonatal nurses who have been certified, midwives, physical therapy, physician assistants, occupational therapists, paramedics, and clinical social workers who have been given authority.

Figure 2. The operational term relates to interprofessional education
Disaster management Based on the Law of Republic Indonesia Number 24 Year 2007 concerning Disaster Management, the implementation of disaster management is a series of efforts that include the establishment of development policies that are at risk of disaster, disaster prevention activities, emergency response, and rehabilitation. Disaster management always develops over time and one place with another is different in how to deal with it, disaster becomes a joint matter with the government being the main responsible. One of the principles of disaster management is coordination and integration, coordination is defined as disaster management based on good coordination and mutual support and integration is interpreted as disaster management carried out by various sectors in an integrated manner based on good and supportive cooperation. Health providers have an obligation to deal with patients due to natural disasters. In the event of a disaster there needs to be mobilization of health providers who are members of a Crisis Management Team which includes: 1) Rapid Reaction Team; 2) Rapid Assessment Team (Rapid Health Assessment Team); 3) Health Assistance Team. The Rapid Reaction Team is a team that is expected to immediately move within 0-24 hours after there is information about a disaster event, this team consists of: 1 sanitarian, 1 communication officer, and medical service consisting of: 1 general practitioner, 1 surgeon, 1 anesthetist, 2 nurses, 1 disaster victim identification staff, 1 pharmacist or pharmacist assistant, and 1 ambulance driver. The Rapid Assessment Team is a team that can be dispatched simultaneously with the Rapid Response Team or follow up in less than 24 hours, this team consists of: 1 general practitioner, 1 epidemiologist, and 1 sanitarian. The Health Assistance Team is a team dispatched based on needs after the Rapid Reaction
176
Team and the Rapid Assessment Team returned with reports on the results of their activities in the field, this team consisted of: general practitioners, pharmacists and pharmacist assistants, nurses, midwives, sanitarians, nutritionists, surveillance personnel, and entomologists. The involvement of many parties in disaster management presents challenges of coordination, lack of coordination often results in humanitarian assistance not reaching the people who need it. The role of each element needs to be coordinated and communicated, so that the implementation of disaster management can actively involve all elements and does not result in overlapping roles. Communication helps health providers in collaborative practice to work together to start an effective interprofessional collaboration. Coordination in the distribution of health providers with certain roles and functions during a crisis period are important components of an emergency preparedness plan. Interprofessional education is an important step in preparing health providers to work collaboratively to anticipate the various effects of natural disasters so that patients recovery gets better. Interprofessioanl education has a team-based learning model that can be opportunities for health providers to build relationships with patients, families, and other health providers. In our conditions of natural disasters, where patients are the main focus, effective teamwork is an important competency in interprofessional education. Ineffective team performance can result in the handling of patients that are nonoptimal, so it is necessary to apply collaborative practices by health providers in dealing with emergencies in order to produce better patient recovery, this is also influenced by adequate knowledge and skills according to the role of each profession by each profession in the team as well as communication skills well. Interprofessional education is an important subject in preparing graduates of the health profession for interprofessional collaboration with the aim of resolving health problems or illnesses caused by natural disasters. Every health provider, beside must have essential and communication skills, they need to develop a spirit of mutual respect, trust, and collaborative work in a synergistic effort to take quick, accurate, and appropriate actions so that the health of disaster victims can be achieved. Conclusions and suggestions Disaster management involves many parties from various professions, especially from a health background. Interprofessional education can be applied by health providers in disaster management because interprofessional education regulates how every profession works according to its role and function, so there is no overlapping role and patient health due to disaster can be optimal.

In South Asia and Southeast Asia where a very few studies conducted in were undertaken to study consequences of specific traumatic event, such as a natural disaster like a hurricane/tsunami or after a man-made disaster like factory fire or collapse with a prevalence ranged from 11.3% to 60.2% (Arnberg, Bergh Johannesson, & Michel, 2013; Fitch, Villanueva, Quadir, Sagiraju, & Alamgir, 2015). Thus, the need for treatment of PTSD is crucial.
medical purposes, even for treating psychiatric patients. A kind of prolonged exposure therapy to treat patients with PTSD is using virtual reality (VR) technology, known as Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy (VRET). Virtual reality allows users interact with the environment from an egocentric point of view or an allocentric point of view, in very near real time, depending on the type of system and programming. Users may also act upon virtual objects shown, and even virtual beings. Users can interact via his own movements by wearing at least one input device (known as "tracker") in more immerse egocentric VR systems (Baus & Bouchard, 2014). Combination of

Bleeding is a major complication of surgery and increase the mortality rates to 20 percent if the severe bleeding occurs during or post-surgery. Fibrin sealant is novel innovation in bleeding management which currently developed since the twentieth century. Objectives: Our systematic review and meta-analysis is conducted (1) To evaluate the use of fibrin sealant as a hemostatic agent in reducing postoperative bleeding; (2) To recommend the future application of fibrin sealant in orthopedic surgical setting. Methods: Our study consists of randomized controlled trial from PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and EBSCOHost and found 843 journals. We found eight full-text articles which meets inclusion and exclusion criteria. We only include 5 articles for quantitative analysis. For further review, those literatures were assessed their risk of bias using the Cochrane Collaboration Tools. Results and Discussion: This systematic review and meta-analysis discusses about some types of fibrin sealant that are being used in orthopedic surgery. Those are BSTC fibrin glue, Tissucol/Tisseel fibrin glue, Quixil, and Evicel. From this study, we found that fibrin sealant has no significant result in reducing blood loss in orthopedic surgical setting (p=0.53). A new hemostatic agent, Traumagel has a promising function to reduce blood loss in animal experiment. Further studies have to be conducted to observe its efficacy and side effects on humans. Conclusion: Our study did not find significant difference between fibrin sealant application and control group on postoperative blood loss. Also, fibrin sealant has relatively expensive cost. Hence, we do not recommend future application of fibrin sealant to reduce blood loss in orthopedic surgical setting.

Introduction Maternal mortality ratio (MMR) remains a priority under Goal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages in SDGs. Indonesia still needs a lot of effort reduce MMR since in 2015 there is still 305 per 100.000 live births. Several studies have indicated the main factors associated with high maternal mortality are low quality of skilled birth attendance care, lack of access to functioning comprehensive, basic emergency and obstetric facilities. Obstetric emergency training could be the way to resolve and also brings a greater impact on this issue by improving the quality of health worker on obstetric skill levels. Material and method We searched the following database or websites without language restriction in 10 years period with keyword “Obstetric Emergency Training”: -
Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials
-
PubMed
-
Science Direct
Result and Discussion We included nine studies after found 18 potentially studies. Then we exclude the other 9 because they did not meet the study design inclusion criteria. In our study, there are many kinds of obstetric emergency training methods such as simulation, checklist, smartphone training tool, ACLS and obstetric emergencies training, blended curriculum approach, mobile simulation workshop. One of the training that meet our criteria is PRONTO, a simulation-based program that provides training for interprofessional healthcare teams using highly-realistic and low-cost simulation. The researcher found significant effects on the outcome variables at four, eight, and twelve months after the intervention. This method is efficient and low-cost, so it can be applied in Indonesia’s rural areas. This method also has a complex but applicable curriculum that covers most of the obstetric problem.

ABSTRACT A New Era: The Use of Technology to Assist Triage in Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) Settings: A Systematic Review Shafa Maulida, Nanda Ayu Sabrina, Wiranigitasari, Serri Rivally Asian Medical Students’ Association Indonesia
Aim •
To assess the effects of technology assisted triage in improving the management of mass casualty incidents (MCI)
Background MCI are disasters and major incidents that can rapidly overwhelm the ability of local medical resources to deliver comprehensive and definitive medical care. MCI triage systems are implemented to offer the greatest good to the greatest amount of people as healthcare resources are limited or strained due to the number of injured individuals. New technologies have the potential to play an important role in improving many aspects in emergency and disaster response to MCI. However, the scientific evidence of these interventions is still lacking. Brief Research Methodology We identified trials through systematic searches of the following bibliographic databases; CENTRAL, PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar on 14th to 21st September 2019. The search terms were: “technology” OR “triage” OR “management” OR “mass casualty incident”. We intended to review randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and nonrandomised trials with assessment of outcomes that evaluated the technology-assisted triage in the management of MCI. Key Findings Three RCTs and eight quasi experiments are included in this review. There are variable and novel technology-based interventions that could improve the triage process in MCI. The interventions discussed are RFID tags, smart glasses, and mobile phone equipped with wireless connection such as NFC. These interventions could enhance the quality of triage in several aspects such as improving patient tracking, triage accuracy, information management and dissemination, and decision support system for responders.
200
Conclusion The use of novel technology for improving the effectiveness and quality of triage in MCI based on the several included studies with various types of intervention shows many beneficial results. However, our confidence in these findings is limited by the quality of the included studies and by substantial heterogeneity between studies.

A New Era: The Use of Technology to Assist Triage in Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) Settings (A Systematic Review) Shafa Maulida1, Nanda Ayu Sabrina1, Wiranigitasari1, Serri Rivally1 1 AMSA-Indonesia
BACKGROUND
RESULT AND DISCUSSION
1. The World Health Organization defines mass casualty incidents as disasters and major incidents that can rapidly overwhelm the ability of local medical resources to deliver comprehensive and definitive medical care. 2. Between 1984 and 2013, Indonesia experienced 325 natural disasters, accounting for 190,794 deaths and costing approximately US $26 billion in damage (EM-DAT, 2013). 3. Mass casualty incident triage systems are implemented to offer the greatest good to the greatest amount of people as healthcare resources are limited or strained due to the number of injured individuals. 4. The triage process has become an important element of emergency care service since it is a continuous process which ensures that patients obtain a level of care appropriate to their clinical need and in a timely manner (FitzGerald et al, 2010) 5. The implementation of informatics solutions and information technology (IT) could have significant beneficial impact, but like IT in healthcare in general, adoption has been slow for variety reasons, and faces a number of significant challenges.

Summary of Main Result Six trials showed beneficial outcomes of technology in improving patientsʼ information management and dissemination through integrated real time data collection (Jokela, et al. 2012; Boltin, et al. 2018; Lenert, et al. 2011; Ingrassia, et al.2012; Chan, et al. 2010; Ganz, et al.2011; Cheng, et al. 2017). Three studies (Jokela, et al. 2012; Ganz, et al. 2011; Ingrassia, et al. 2012) incorporated radio frequency identification (RFID) devices which transmit information from casualty ID tags to reader devices through radio waves. One study evaluated the use of mobile application. Two randomized controlled trials (Lenert, et al. 2011; Chan, et al. 2010 ) showed that Wireless Internet Information System WIISARD) has appeared to improve the quality of information collected, medical documentation and triage acuity, and enhance the dissemination of information across the response team Four trials has discussed the utilization of novel technology to improve triage accuracy in mass casualty incidents, (Rodriguez, et al. 2014; Broach, et al. 2018; Follmann, et al. 2019; Cheng, et al. 2017). A study by Follmann showed that the use of Smart Glasses to display triage algorithm resulted in better triage accuracy than conventional methods. In 2017, Cheng et al studied the effects of Near Field Communications (NFC) embedded smartphones and they found significant benefits in reducing total triage time and improving the triage accuracy compared with the paperwork group.

Electronic Triage Accuracy in Mass Casualty Incident
Figure 4. Group Based on Interventions Applicability of Evidence The results of our systematic reviews has confirmed the successful use and implementation of technology based triage that is feasible during mass casualty incident situations. Although the paper-based conventional triage method is relatively inexpensive alternative, there are several problems (such as easy to lost, get destroyed, limitation at data accuracy, ambiguous identification numbers, duplicate identification numbers, combinations of ambiguously labeled and doubly labeled identifiers) (Lanert L, 2011 & Jokela J, 2012). Even though this replacement of traditional paper-based record base or triage in disaster care with an electronic one may have complex design and geolocation technologies challenge and require further development, this system is proved to be easy to use and appeared to be a practical technology (Lenert L, 2011). Beside of improving quality of triaging in mass casualty incident, technology-based triage could also have important secondary benefits such as being a repository for collecting patient data (Follmann A, 2019 & Ganz A, 2011).

This review has several limitations, mainly caused by the limited availability of RCT study types that evaluated the use of novel technology for triage in mass casualty incidents. This availability of RCT limitation is due to the initiation of the development of electronic triage has just started in less than a decade. This availability limitation also affects the consistency of the model and tool that are compared in this study. Moreover, previous conducted studies related to the effectiveness of a tool or system in mass casualty incidents mostly were designed in a simulation and/or trial situation that definitely has a different condition compared to the real-situation. There are some unpredictable circumstances in real-situation that might inhibit the applicability of electronic triage, such as lack of connection, electrical energy, and any other situation.
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The use of novel technology for improving the effectiveness and quality of triage in mass casualty incidents based on the several included studies with various types of intervention shows many beneficial results. However, our confidence in these findings is limited by the quality of the included studies and by substantial heterogeneity between studies. We sincerely hope that this review can be used as a suggestion for the government, and any party that takes part in managing mass casualty incidents to consider switching the use of paper based triage to technology-assisted triage in the future, because the utilization of the interventions such as those included in this review could alleviate the problem of limited human resources in mass casualty incidents, by making their work more efficient. All types of technology-based triage that has been discussed in this review do need further assessment and development before it can be used widely in mass casualty incidents.

KNOWLEDGE ON HYPOGLYCEMIA AMONG PATIENTS WITH DIABETES MELLITUS Marito Lenny Tin Sianipar, Gloria Jessica Wekatano Wafom, Sherlye Maclaine Gunawan Universitas Kristen Indonesia Abstract Objective The objective of the study is to assess the level of knowledge of hypoglycemia among patients with diabetes mellitus in the rural community. Hypoglycemia is an acute complication of diabetes mellitus. The recognition of hypoglycemia and immediate treatment of hypoglycemia should be known by all the diabetic patients so that treatment of hypoglycemia may not be delayed, need for hospitalization could be avoided, and life-threatening complications due to hypoglycemia may be prevented. Introduction Hypoglycemia is an acute complication in diabetes mellitus, and it is the medical term for a state produced by a lower than normal level of blood glucose. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by more blood glucose level and disturbances in carbohydrates, fat, and protein metabolism and associated with a metabolic complication that can subsequently lead to premature death. The term hypoglycemia literally means " Under-sweet blood. It occurs when the blood glucose falls to < 40-50 mg/dl which may endanger a patient's life as well as another person's life. It can be caused by too much insulin intake or oral hypoglycemic agents, too little food or excessive physical activity. Methods A cross-sectional research design was adopted with 60 sample who met the inclusion criteria in the real community in India. The structured interview method was used the collect the data. Data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics. Result Of 60 samples, 38(63.33%) had inadequate knowledge, 12 (20%) of them had moderately adequate had 10 (16.67%) of them had adequate knowledge. There is a significant association between the age and type of treatment at the level of p<0,05 with the level of knowledge on hypoglycemia.
Discussion
211
Studies are congruent with the present study, and when compared with the present study findings, educational, the status of the client plays an important role in taking care of themselves and also people with diabetes mellitus have knowledge of self-care management, but still, they had very poor knowledge on hypoglycemia. Many of them had experienced the symptoms of hypoglycemia, but may not know what this is due to hypoglycemia caused by drug and improper diet, and they do not know the first aid measures to treat the hypoglycemia. Conclusion The study findings concluded that there is a lack of knowledge of hypoglycemia among patients with diabetes mellitus. Health care professionals have a major role in educating clients with diabetes mellitus about hypoglycemia risk factors, recognition of symptoms of hypoglycemia, first aid measures of hypoglycemia, blood glucose monitoring, and choice of proper regimens, thereby minimize the risk of hypoglycemia, and prevent the potential complications of hypoglycemia.

Background: Snakebites are well known medical emergencies. It is a kind of serious neglected tropical health issue that causes death, disability, disfigurement, depravation, and destitution across continents. According to International Society on Toxicology (2014), India is the country with the biggest amount of snakebite envenoming cases occurring each year. Indonesia is ranked second with an average 113,881 cases each year. Indonesia is one of the most affected countries in South-East Asia Region, due to its high population density, widespread agriculture activities, presence of numerous venomous snakes, and the most important is lack of community awareness including wrong first-aid treatment of snakebite. Therefore, we make a public poster entitled AVOID COBRA & DO
3R as the abbreviation of the do’s and don’ts for snakebite emergency as creative campaign that is easy to remember. Objective: The aim is to reduce mortality and morbidity due to wrong snakebite emergency treatment in the community by socializing priority actions to achieve the vision of zero deaths from snakebite.

ACUTE DIARRHOEA IN CHILDREN: SIMPLE BUT DEATHABLE AMSA-Universitas Jambi (M. Kholis Dzaky, Khiyaratul Husna, Denok Maretta Haq) Aim This poster is aimed to raise awareness and informed the right way to manage acute diarrhoea in children to parents in order to prevent diarrhoea as it may leads to death and disturbs children growth and development. Background/ Introduction Diarrhoea is the second leading cause of death in children under five years old. In low-income countries, children under three years old experience at about three episodes of diarrhoea every year. Diarrhoea is also a major cause of malnutrition and malnourished children is at high risk to fall ill from diarrhoea. Acute-onset diarrhoea is usually self-limited however, an acute infection can have a protracted course. Although acute diarrhoea is deathable and may increasing morbidity but it is actually preventable and treatable. Prevention aspect including community wide sanitation promotion, hand washing with soap, promoting exclusive six months breastfeeding, rotavirus vaccination, and good personal and food hygiene. While adequate treatment such as rehydration with low-osmolarity oral rehydration salt (ORS) solution, zinc supplementation, and continued feeding with nutrient-rich foods and breast milk. Brief Research Methodology This poster studies are based on report from UNICEF headquarter in the developing countries, with title â&#x20AC;&#x153;Diarrhoea: Why children are still dying and what can be doneâ&#x20AC;?.

FIRST AID BURN INJURIES WITH “GET 4C” Muhammad Bariq Rifqi Pasha, Khoirunnisa Qurrota’ayun Nur Utami University of Pembangunan Nasional Veteran Jakarta, Indonesia Asian Medical Students’ Association Indonesia A burn is an injury to the skin or organic tissue caused by heat, radiation, chemicals, or others. WHO estimated 180.000 deaths every year caused by burns. In India, the prevalency of burn injury is around 6-7 million cases per year. Burn degree classification: first degree burns affecting superficial epidermis, second degree burns affecting epidermis and part of the dermis, third degree burns affecting the epidermis and the dermis, and fourth degree burns affecting all layers of the skin into muscle and bone, the tissue appear blackened. First aid for patient with burn wounds are: cool the burn with cool running water, clothes or jewelleries near the burnt area of skin should be removed, cover the burn by placing layer of cling film over, and call for help if the burn penetrates all layers of skin, leathery skin, charred looking, with white, brown, or black patches. Tips for burn prevention includes: checking home gas system, careful with candles and cigarettes, use sunscreen, and using handgloves in laboratory.

TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS LIFE - SAVING
ABSTRACT Author : Astrid Cynthia Latief , Irgy Prijenka Ardhanariswara, Sagung Ngurah Anindita Pradnya Dewi Traffic accidents resulted 33,815 deaths in the Southeast Asian (Abbreviated Southeast Asia, Abbreviated SEAR) in 2010, with an average of 18.5 deaths per 100,000 populations. The average death due to traffic accidents is higher in middle-to-lower income countries with 19.5 deaths per 100,000 population than in poor countries with 12.7 traffic accident deaths per 100,000. populations. In Indonesia the average death from traffic accidents is 17,5 deaths per 100,00 populations based on global status survey on road safety 2013. This rate is keep increasing each year, because of the lack public public awareness of safety attitudes when driving, and not much people have well educated about what should they do to help the traffic accidents victim, and also one of them caused by help received by the victim is too late. Because of this basis we decided to take this topic into our poster project, in hope that this will also can increasing people awareness about traffic accidents life-saving. And, for the methodology we used in this Research is literature review. KEY FINDINGS : traffic accidents, traffic accidents life-saving, emergency medicine

SEIZURE More Than 5 Minutes? Be SMART! Agnes Debora Sianturi, Ave Maria, Shantidewi AMSA-Universitas Brawijaya
Seizure is abnormal and excessive surge of electrical activity in the brain that causes abnormal movement. Many conditions cause seizures, one of which is infections/illness with fever in children. Seizure is a symptom, but untreated seizure will lead to neurons fatigue, if it continues progressively, it will impair the brain. That long-term complication will give meaningful developmental impacts to children. Besides preventing from short-term complications (difficulty in breathing, low O2 level, or social impacts), adequate first aid is highly required. This poster aims to socialize the first-aid treatments of seizure for parents or people close to children. This poster also aims to break the wrong belief that seizure is treated by administering spoon, coffee, or anything to the mouth, which is actually dangerous. This poster simplifies the first-aid treatments of seizure with the abbreviation of SMART: Stay calm; Make sure the breathing is fine, Lay the child on one side to prevent choking, Loosen clothing around neck, Leave nothing in the mouth to prevent breathing injury; Assess temperature and duration; Remember to stay close to the child during and after seizure; Take your child to hospital if seizure lasts 5 minutes, repeated, or when the temperature reaches 40OC or higher.

FAST STEPS TO DETECT STROKE Faculty of Medicine Airlangga University Authors: Albertus Alarik, Samuel Davin, Quinamora Estevan
ABSTRACT Background From year to year, patients with stroke increases and stroke becomes one of the leading cause of death in Indonesia. Based on World Health Organization's data, stroke is the second leading cause of death in the world. Stroke is a disease that can attack anyone. Society rarely realize the stroke symptoms because it only happens for a short time. People usually ignore this kind of phenomenon whereas it is a sign that someone has attacked by stroke disease. By early detection and controlling risk factor, stroke can be prevented so it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cause disability and risk of death. Objective Our group made this poster to educate society about stroke symptoms so they can do early detection that prevent a further risk. Brief Research Methodology In the making process of this poster, we collected information and data from reliable sources as our content. This method known as literature review method.

Abstract Epilepsy is a chronic disease that has the characteristic form of recurrent seizures that often occur without triggers. This matter caused by central nervous system disorders due to excessive electrical brain activity patterns that cause seizures, sensations and unusual behavior, until loss of consciousness. Seizures are the main symptom of epilepsy, but not all people who experience seizures must have this condition. In Indonesia, there are an estimated 1.3-1.6 million sufferers of epilepsy. This number doesn’t describe the actual number of cases because many people don’t want to bring their family members that suffers from epilepsy to the health center or hospital for treatment. This happens partly because of the wrong stigma attached to epilepsy sufferers. Many people wrongly assume that epilepsy is a contagious disease. Which resulted more than 60 % sufferers don’t received the proper therapy. For those reasons, we provided 6 steps “ACTION”
that can help people to understand the emergency management to prevent the
mishandling in epilepsy patients who are relapsing. Keyword : epilepsy, seizures, emergency management

BEAT the Stigma, HEAL Your Burn Trauma Aleyda Zahratunany Insanitaqwa, Aniq Roisatul Khikmah, Aulia Putri Fadriyana, Ridha Nugraheni Faculty of Medicine, Brawijaya University Burn injuries has become major global public health crisis. This devastating injuries is the fourth most common type of trauma worldwide (Peck et al., 2008). Moreover, WHO has estimated that every year, there are 180.000 deaths due to burn injury, and many of these occur in low-middle income countries. Burn injury can affect everyone, regardless of age, gender, education and socioeconomic status. Nonetheless, we still face some challenges, such as lack of the burn centre resources, trained providers and medicine supplies. The early phase in burns is a critical period. Inappropriate treatment during early phase of burn could lead to several complications, such as cardiogenic shock and hypovolemic shock which are life-threatening conditions. Therefore, people should know what to do and what not to do when having burn injury. However, in society, people do not understand yet the proper handling of burns. Some wrong beliefs are still used to treat the burn injuries which can cause further damage. Moreover, the understanding of how to manage burn injury properly is still lacking in societies. By this project, we hope that people takes a serious attention to this issues and be able to do first aid treatment of burn injury properly.

Medical Faculty of Muhammadiyah University of Malang Abstract
One of unexpected thing we could encounter in daily life that is food choking. Choking is a disruption in the form of airway obstruction and has the potential to cause death if not treated immediately. Nowadays, there are still many people who still don’t know how to handle food choking properly. This skill must be known to many people, especially for a waiters who works in a restaurant that often interacts with customers. The rate is 11 to 13 cases per 100,000 per year, with male : female ratio of 1.7:1, resulting up to 1500 death per year. The method used to compile this poster is to search journal sources obtained through “Google Scholar”, “PubMed”, and “MedScape” search engine with "choking", "Esophageal food bolus impaction", and "heimlich maneuver" key findings.

1.1. Aim ●
To increase public awareness about patients with altered / decreased levels of consciousness
●
To minimise the number of patients with altered / decreased levels of consciousness arriving too late to hospital emergency rooms
1.2 Background From a small survey conducted to emergency room’s doctors, it has come to our attention that patients with altered / decreased levels of consciousness are often taken to the emergency room too late. Although signs such as; insomnia, lack of response, disorientation, etc. have been present for a few days or weeks before the patient is brought to the hospital, relatives or caretakers often underestimate it as only minor signs of illness. As such, a number of cases are present in which patients are brought in already at the later stages of consciousness. Thus, it is noted that raising public awareness on altered levels of consciousness is crucial in the field of emergency medicine. 1.3. Methodology ●
Survey We made forms regarding altered levels of consciousness for emergency room doctors from three different hospitals to fill as basis for our topic.
●
Library research We looked up information regarding diseases associated with altered levels of consciousness and its measuring scale.
236
1.4. Key findings Out of 43 responses, 72.1% of doctors agree that the general public lack awareness on altered levels of consciousness. On a scale of 1 to 5, 5 being the most important, 35 of them put a 5 in the importance of the populace knowing this topic. In addition, 100% agree that the increase of public awareness on altered levels of consciousness will give a positive effect on emergency cases. Below are the top five diseases associated with altered levels of consciousness: 1. Stroke 2. Hypoglycemia or Hyperglycemia 3. Shock 4. Metabolic acidosis 5. Head trauma We decided to use the AVPU scale as basis for the grading of consciousness, as it is often used in emergency situations, but thought it would be wise to alter the wording in our poster so that it will be perceived better by the public.

Snakebite Envenoming : Get to Know the First Aid Padjadjaran University Amalia Dwi M., Fathiyya Nabilah, Lita Latifah R., Raina Maharani T.
Aims To educate people about signs and symptoms and the treatment of victims of poisonous snake bites, including the first treatment and what should not be done which are important to increase victim’s chances of survival, decrease cases of disabilities, and prevent complications. Background Snakebite envenoming is a neglected public health issue in many tropical and subtropical countries. It is a potentially life-threatening disease that results from the injection of a mixture of different toxins following the bite of a venomous snake. About 5.4 million snake bites occur each year, resulting in 1.8 to 2.7 million cases of envenoming. Around 81.000-138 000 people die each year because of snake bites, and around three times as many amputations and other permanent disabilities are caused by snakebites annually. Snakebite epidemics follow flooding, cyclones and invasion of snakes’ habitats for road building, irrigation schemes and logging. Different snake venom can have a variety of effects ranging from localized pain to devastating complications. Research Methodology We gathered information through various books and Guidelines from the WHO, analyzed and summarized the informations to make them easily understood. Key Findings a.

Got a snake bite? Do it the R.I.G.H.T way! Amelia Minarfah, Michelle Gracella, Lestari Eka Putri Wanti, Gita Safitri Faculty of Medicine, University of Jambi – Jambi, Indonesia
Aim: To increase public knowledge about snake bites and appropriate actions to deal with snake bites. Background: Morbidity and mortality occur most frequently among young people and children suffer higher case fatality. Many victims do not attend health centers or hospitals and instead rely on traditional treatments. Available data shows are 4.5–5.4 million people get bitten by snakes annually. Of this, 1.8– 2.7 million develop clinical illness and 81,000 to 138,000 die from complications. One the factor is that people keep seeking help through traditional medicine that oftentimes fail. So we would want raise people awareness to seek for medical help. Method : We used literature review by retrieved data from eligible sources, WHO. Key Findings: snake bite, appropriate action, medical help

Chronic disability and death caused by venomous snakebites made snakebites an important medical emergency in many parts of SEA region. Not only those involved in farming and plantation work, but also the snake keepers themselves, are at the risk bitten by snake. In fact, 3 out of 5 snake keepers died due to their own snakes. Venomous snakes commonly share the same traits: triangular head, elliptical pupils, and large hollow fangs. Unfortunately, popular first-aid methods: sucking venom out, tying tight bandage at the bitten limb, applying topical products, and making local incision, do more harm than good. Recommended first-aid methods emphasize immobilization and immediate movement of the patient to the nearest health care facilities. Lastly, there are some ways to prevent snakebites, such as wearing boots and long trousers on risky area, such as grassy field; keeping your limbs away from unascertained holes; and using light especially in dark and after heavy rains (WHO, 2016). There are still plenty of cases not recorded due to inadequate reporting. Eventually, giving more concern to snakebites in Indonesia may reduce its incidence because everyone may be at risk of snakebites. KEYWORDS: Snakebite education, medical emergency

Content : Drowning is suffocation from submersion in a liquid medium. In 2015, around 360,000 people died from drowning, making drowning a major public health problem worldwide. Drowning is the 3rd leading cause of unintentional injury death. Therefore, this poster promotes immediate actions needed to save drowning victim, which will help to reduce the death rate. In making this poster, it is hard to find literature review; however, it was found through the internet that AHA and WHO explained the steps to save drowning victims in emergency, which is named as “FLOAT” in our poster. The first step, F, “find out scene safety”, means that we need to check victim’s response. If the victim is unresponsive, do step L (“look for help via phone or nearby help”). Then, do step O, which means “operate C-A-B (chest compression-airway-breathing)”. Next, do step A (“AED has to be operated when available”). Lastly, do step T (“Try to check rhythm. If the pulse returns, yield recovery position. If it does not, repeat step “O””). All in all, emergency drowning victims can be saved through a few steps as written in this public poster. These steps have to be done carefully to provide maximum results. References : American Heart Association. (2015). Part 5: Adult Basic Life Support and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

High Five! Five Points to Survive Earthquake Background: Indonesia is geographically located at the confluence of 3 giant plates and ends up being rich of active fault distribution. This large number of faults can cause more than 10 earthquakes every day and 11,577 earthquakes every year (BNPB, 2018). However, the number of earthquake happened is not balanced with publicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knowledge regarding the actions that must be taken when an earthquake occurs. Objective: The key factor to survive in dealing with disaster emergencies is by improving community preparedness and skill, which can begin with providing education about the appropriate response of the community. Here are five points to survive when earthquake occurs: 1. Don't panic and don't try to get out of the building to avoid injury caused by falling objects. 2. Stay protected by doing: drop to the ground, take cover by getting under a sturdy table, and hold on until the shaking stops. 3. Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can locate you. 4. Create a family emergency communications plan that has an out-of-state contact. 5. Stay away from buildings, beaches, and utility wires to avoid building collapse, potential tsunamis, and injuries when you are outside (Shake Out, 2017). Key Findings: Community preparedness, disaster response, earthquake preparedness, emergency situation. References:

OVERACTIVE OR NOT, YOUR BRAIN IS AMAZING! A. Muh. Febrian Cakra; Annisa Ramadhanti Yusuf; A. Nur Syadza Ghalia; Ratri Indraswari Hasanuddin University, Makassar, South Sulawesi.
ABSTRACT About 65 million people across the world have active epilepsy. Epilepsy is a neurological condition characterized by “overactive” certain areas of brain, resulting in seizure. Seizure were a common emergency in public situation such as school and workplace. With the growing number of seizure’s incidence rate, there are still many misconceptions of seizure first aid management that people continue to hold. Lack of awareness and mis-management of seizure often results in endangering the patient’s life. Proper management of seizure will reduce the risk of status epilepticus – a prolonged seizure or more serious injury such as permanent brain damage. Through the public poster, we aimed to raise public awareness about the stigma related to seizure and to inform people the basic first aid of seizure.

Do S.A.F.E for Anaphylaxis Universitas Kristen Krida Wacana Aurellia, Fanny Andy Setia Yanti , Sinta Iskandar Abstract The purpose of this poster is to educate for the readers on how to do an emergency treatment for anaphylaxis in a correct way.
There are seek for the nearest medical help, inject epipen (epinephrine
autoinjector), get an allergy diagnostic, and consult to a specialist to get a long term anaphylaxis treatment. If the epipen (epinephrine autoinjector) is prescribed, the patient and his or her closest people should be educated on when and how to use it so if the patient got the anaphylactic shock he or she could be saved. Anaphylaxis emergency treatment is very important for the society to know because anaphylaxis is a severe allergic reaction that can occur at any times and could lead to a shock that ended up to death. Shock is decreased tissue perfusion, or in other words decreased oxygenation of tissue. The symptoms of anaphylaxis are hives, itchiness all around the body, difficulty in breathing, nausea, diarrhea, low hypotension, swollen throat, eyes, and lips, dizziness, and stomach cramps. This poster is built based on the existing literatures. Key findings: Anaphylaxis, shock, epinephrine

When Stroke Strikes Fast, Be Faster Than A Stroke Aim This poster aimed to make people learn and know about stroke and what to do when someone got stroke and hope to raise awareness among society about the danger of stroke and how a fast response is very much needed, exactly like for a heart attack case. Background Stroke has always been a major cause of death and disability in many countries. Stroke is an especially serious problem in Asia, which has more 60% of the world’s population, and many of its countries are “developing” their economies, such as Indonesia. While stroke risk increases with age, in these days society, stroke seems to strike a lot of younger people. Unfortunately, not that many people aware about how fast stroke can change their life.

ALLERGY REACTION HAPPENED ?! BE HELPFUL WITH C.A.L.M Krida Wacana Christian University Azarya Sihite, Gea Pandanni Barth, Veronica Agrippina Franesta, Shindie Dona Kezia Lethulur
Anaphylaxis is an acute systemic reaction with symptoms of an immediate-type allergic reaction that can involve the whole organism and potentially life-threatening. The body produces antibodies called immunoglobulin E that attach themselves to certain cells, causing the cells to release a chemical called histamine that causes inflammation. Symptoms range from skin redness, hives and swelling in the most severe cases, vomiting, diarrhea, difficulty breathing. Severe reactions to environmental and food allergies can make a drop in blood pressure and anaphylactic shock may occur. Most people who develop adult-onset allergies usually do so in their twenties and thirties, though itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible to develop them at any age. Even following a successful diagnosis, avoiding trigger such food is difficult and accidental reactions are common. But even making an initial diagnosis is challenging. The main way to identify food allergies is for a patient to gradually eat increased amounts of that food under medical supervision. There is currently no cure for food allergy, and managing the condition relies on avoiding the offending foods and this writing aim how emergency treatment plan in case of exposure. That can achieve with c.a.l.m that stands for Call an ambulance, Assistance other in the right position to maintain airway, Lifesaving first and most important drug to give Epinephrine, Managing cardio-pulmonary arrest. If the cardiopulmonary arrest occurred do the CPR. Keywords: anaphylaxis, anaphylactic shock.

Heat Stroke Universitas Pelita Harapan Catherine Siany Kurniawan, Stephanie Febria Lim, Fellisa Meliani, Shelvyana Heat stroke is a life-threatening medical emergency that is defined as a core temperature rise over 40°C, usually accompanied by central nervous system dysfunction. Heat stroke is an important condition contributing to mortality rate between 10-50% worldwide. Although the mortality rate is pretty high, heat stroke is largely preventable. Prompt recognition and immediate action by cooling through evaporation or full-body ice water immersion are crucial. These preventive measures can avert much morbidity and mortality associated with heat stroke. The aim of this poster is to raise public awareness about the importance to have early recognition and early management to prevent progressivity of heat stroke into a worse condition. Through this poster, we sincerely hope that the information will be delivered well so that public can recognize the symptoms of heat stroke, early diagnosis, and encouraged them to do the first aid.

The Relevance of Raising Awareness of ARDS Emergency to Patients’ Chance of Survival Universitas Pelita Harapan
Cindy Clarissa, I Gusti Nadine, Shania Lokito
ABSTRACT
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rapidly progressive inflammatory disease
occurring in ill patients where complication may occur making it difficult or impossible to breathe and cause loss of lungs function. This public poster aims to let people acknowledge the urgency of ARDS and how to treat patients to increase chances of survival. ARDS complication happens when fluid leaks from blood vessel to where blood is oxygenated, the alveoli. In ARDS, lung stiffness is increased and capability of lung to eliminate carbon dioxide is impaired. Sepsis, inhalation of harmful substances, and major chest injury may cause damage to the membrane that keeps the fluid from leaking, and major head injury may be the underlying cause of ARDS. Patients might have severe shortness of breath, rapid breathing, or chest pain during inhalation, resulting in severely decreased oxygen levels in blood and causing them to have cyanosis, making it an emergency case. The mortality rate of ARDS reached 40% in hospitals with the increase of severity overtime. ARDS patients require intensive care unit to prevent further complications and to maintain function of the lungs. Therefore, it is essential for people to acknowledge the management of this emergency case to improve patients’ chance of survival.

Background Adrenal crisis is a medical emergency due to cortisol insufficiency, which commonly found in children with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH). CAH is a genetic disease when cortisol can’t be synthesized, leading to cortisol deficiency. There are approximately 20,000 estimated children with CAH in Indonesia, most of them are not recognized. Adrenal crisis accounts for 42% of death in CAH patients during their first year of life. In Indonesia, 12.8% of patients diagnosed with CAH died because of adrenal crisis. Failure to recognize symptoms of adrenal crisis and giving precise treatment can lead to preventable deaths. Parents with children having CAH should be aware if their children show symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and dehydration. During the crisis, the first aid and immediate hospitalization are vital for the patient’s survival. Drugs given by the doctor should be regularly taken, and patient compliance is essential to prevent an adrenal crisis. Aim: This poster aimed to increase CAH community awareness to reduce adrenal crisis mortality Methods Journal reading Key Findings Adrenal crisis, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, awareness, mortality Reference Yau M, Gujral J, New MI.

Is She in GRAVE Danger? Author: Daniell Edward Raharjo, Vellia Justian, Felicitas Tania Elvina Universitas Indonesia Through a thorough literature review, it was discovered that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for women, but only half of the female population is aware of this fact, attributing it as a ‘men’s disease’.1 Among cardiovascular diseases, acute myocardial infarction is leading cause of death in women worldwide.2 In the US every year, 450,000 women succumb to heart disease and 250,000, more than half, die because of coronary artery disease. This poor prognosis, especially compared to men, is due to failure to identify signs and symptoms of myocardial infarction, going unnoticed and unreported.3 Unlike the usual symptoms associated with heart attack by laymen, "tightness or discomfort of the chest", Women are more likely to experience symptoms such as gastric, jaw and back pain, rapid breathing, feeling of anxiety, vomiting and nausea, exhaustion and fatigue, and syncope or fainting, which are the less typical symptoms of myocardial infarction, but are more likely to occur in women.4 These symptoms are shortened into the catchy acronym “GRAVES”. Furthermore, although mortality is high, cardiovascular diseases are highly preventable through management of risk factors, such as departing from a sedentary lifestyle, weight control, alcohol and smoking cessation, controlling mental stress, maintaining a healthy blood pressure, along with reducing salt cholesterol and sugar 4 , which is abbreviated into the memorable acronime “SWAMPS”, hence our catchphrase: Avoid the GRAVES by staying out of the SWAMPS. Therefore, this public poster is meant to increase the awareness on this crucial issue in the community, which is lack of awareness on the different symptoms that is experienced by women during myocardial infarction, including the fact that not experiencing chest pain does not mean a heart attack is not happening.

LET’S DO “PENTA DON’T” When Epilepsy Seizure Attack Someone Egi Claudia Pratiwi, Meyustina Noviantika Sitohang, Virena Audelia Rambang Reza Rosita Magdalena from University of Palangka Raya ABSTRACT Epilepsy is a neurological disease characterized by seizures and can usually be accompanied by loss of consciousness. This disease affects approximately 50 million people worldwide (WHO 2018), while according to the Ministry of Health in Indonesia there are estimated to be around 1.3-1.6 million sufferers. Epilepsy or what is known in the wider community as "epileptic" disease often occurs around us. However, the lack of public knowledge in the first treatment of epilepsy sufferers who are experiencing an attack can worsen the condition of the patient. Based on these problems, made a public poster with the title "Let’s do" Penta Don't ". The purpose of making this poster is to educate the public to provide appropriate treatment for epilepsy sufferers who are experiencing seizures. Seizures are emergencies that must be handled appropriately so as not to endanger the patient's condition. Key words : Epilepsy, Seizure, Emergencies, Penta Don’t

The Importance of First Aid Awareness Universitas Pelita Harapan Elizabeth Marcella, Charlotte Alyssia Jonatan, Jeannette Tandiono, Michaela Kemuning Pusung Emergency is a sudden natural or man-made event in which immediate measures are required in order to avert a disaster. Emergencies can happen anywhere and anytime and it is one of the healthcare workersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; duties to handle them. Even so, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t close the possibility of emergencies happening outside of the hospital or in unreachable areas where health services are scarce. That is why first aid is very important for everyone to know as some emergencies are very dire that actions taken on the first minutes of emergencies can mean life or death. First aid is emergency care or treatment given to an ill or injured person before medical aid can be obtained which intend to maintain airway and to support breathing and circulation. It is an essential skill everyone should have in order to lessen the complications and consequences of said emergencies. Cardiac arrest and choking are examples of two life threatening emergencies which are significant in global health, in which correct immediate management are paramount to prevent death and permanent disability. Therefore, first aid knowledge is crucial and very important. And yet, important as it is, the awareness of the importance of first aid in Indonesia is still low. Hence, this public poster is made to highlight and raise awareness of the importance of first aid knowledge. References: 1. Ronald, d. (2019). Pertolongan Pertama. [online] File.upi.edu.

Drowning is a serious but neglected public health threat, with over 372,000 people die every year, making it the third leading accidental injury killer in the worldwide and among those are aged under 25 years, making it in the 10 leadings death for those ages. (WHO, 2014). Drowning is neglected because it doesn’t create any noise and it has a very fast killing speed, is estimated that it only takes 20 seconds for children to be drowned (USACE, 2018), That’s why it’s very easy to go unnoticed if someone is drowning. Therefore, prevention is the main key in fighting drowning. Prevention of drowning mainly consist of : provision of appropriate personal flotation devices, signage and designation of dangerous water bodies, appropriate boating and water regulation, close supervision of adults, as well as profesional adult supervision combined with reduction of exposure to water hazards through strategic barriers, swimming lessons on children and fast resuscitation in a timely manner by a trained observer or rescuer through mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and chest. If it is too late, call emergencies immediately. So, are you prepared to fight for your children? Because drowning kills your future.

SUDDEN CARDIAC ARREST Fatimah Azizah Salsabila, Bellinda Zalzabilah Tazkira, Tatik Widiastuti, Monycha Helaina C. W.
Abstract 1. Aim : Analyzing cardiac arrest as a case of medical emergencies. 2. Background : Cardiac arrest is a condition of the heartbeat, heart function and blood vessels suddenly stopped marked by loss of consciousness and unable to breathe normally. The cause is a disturbance of the heart rhythm, precisely ventricular fibrillation so that the heart's ventricles only vibrate and also heart tissue injury, cardiomyopathy, and coronary arteries. Someone who is more at risk are smokers, obesity, diabetes, drug abuse, and excessive stress. Cardiac arrest is characterized by symptoms of palpitations, shortness of breath, and fatigue. 3. Brief Research Methodology : Checking the neck pulse and cardiac pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to support blood circulation or cardiac massage with respiratory assistance. If available, use an automatic heart aid (AED) according to the procedure while waiting for an ambulance. At the hospital, doctors diagnose blood tests, X-rays, echocardiography and cardiac catheterization. Then, to prevent it, cardiac shock implant (ICD), ring placement, heart ablation, bypass surgery, and corrective surgery. 4. Keywords : Cardiac arrest, ventricular fibrillation, cardiomyopathy, pulse, and cardiac pulmonary resuscitation.

ABSTRACT BEAT The Heat Fellicia Naurah Andryas, Cindy Jilbert, Alanis Maryjane Mamahit, Veriantara Satya Dhika Universitas Pembangunan Nasional “Veteran” Jakarta Indonesia will experience a temperature rise of 0.2 to 0.3°C per decade due to global warming. This condition can cause heat stroke, a core body temperature that rises above 40°C, accompanied by hot dry skin and central nervous system abnormalities. Heat stroke related deaths are expected to rise by nearly 2.5 times in the 2050s. Based on the presence or absence of exertion, heat stroke is classified into: 1. Exertional heat stroke that occur in healthy individuals executing rigorous physical activity. 2. Classical heat stroke which mostly affects the elderly with comorbidities including diabetes, obesity, and heart disease, even though high-level physical activities is not performed. Heat stroke patients present with dry skin, hypohidrosis even though their body temperature is 40°C or above, increased respiratory rate or shortness of breath, confused, unresponsive, even unconscious and seizure. Through our poster, we aim to increase awareness regarding the classification and the first aid of heat stroke. BEAT The Heat is an easy way to remember the essential steps needed to assist someone with heat stroke.

BASIC LIFE SUPPORT: A MATTER OF SECONDS Frederick Wirawan, Richard Pinarto, Trixie Nathania Zelig, Filza Salsabila Kamal Second Year Medical Student, Hasanuddin University
Basic Life Support is a level of medical care which is used for victims of life-threatening illnesses or injuries until they can be given fully medical care at the hospital. Well-known Basic Life Support procedures is CPR or Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. Some of the situations that require CPR involve suffocation, near-drowning, cardiac arrest, and many more situation that can cause patients to stop breathing. According to American Heart Association, there are more than 350.000 cardiac arrest occur out of the hospitals. In Indonesia, it is estimated that there are 10.000 cases of peope who has cardiac arrest every year (Ahmad Lathif, et.al, 2017). However cardiac arrest can be handled with cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Fortunately, many places in Indonesia havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been conducted with the cardiopulmonary resuscitation. From the fact above, we want to encourage the nation about the importance of Basic Life Support and how we can prevent sudden death at the cause of cardiac arrest. At last, we hope that there will be an increasing number of people that understand by getting a training about Basic Life Support itself. Because Basic Life Support is a matter of seconds.

Be Aware of the Dangers of Hypoglycemia Christian University of Krida Wacana Ghita Dea Fany S, Alega Greacia F
Abstract In Indonesia, there are an estimated 10.3 million people living with diabetes. Most of them are concerned with high glucose or hyperglycemia but few are aware of the danger of hypoglycemia or blood glucose levels are too low in diabetic patients. From the recent International Operations Hypoglycemia Assessment Tool (IO HAT) study in Indonesia, around 36.4% of patients did not know what hypoglycemia was at the initial symptoms. Hypoglycemia is a very dangerous condition where the blood glucose level is below the normal level or under 55 đ?&#x2018;&#x161;đ?&#x2018;&#x161;/đ?&#x2018;&#x2018;đ??ż .This usually happens due to an imbalance between food consumed, physical activity, drugs used. When a person suffers hypoglycemia, then he also suffers heart inflammation and increases the risk of atherosclerosis also change a person's heart rhythm. When hypoglycemia occurs continuously, then a person's heart rhythm will also experience changes constantly called arrhythmia. That can cause the heart pump canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work optimally. Because the heart rate changes, diabetic patients who have complications of hypoglycemia often experience Long QT syndrome. This syndrome causes your heartbeat to be irregular and can cause sudden death. For those reasons, we discuss how to handle it to prevent the mishandling in hypoglycemia patients who are relapsing. Keyword : hypoglycemia, glucose, death

SEPSIS IS EMERGENCY Gita Safitri, Michelle Gracella, Amelia Minarfah, Lestari Eka Putri Faculty of Medicine, University of Jambi â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Jambi, Indonesia Aim : We purpose to increase public awareness and knowledge of sepsis. Background: The global epidemiological burden of sepsis is difficult to ascertain but it is estimated to affect more than 30 million people worldwide every year, even potentially leading to 6 million deaths. The burden of sepsis is most likely highest in low- and middle-income countries.1 While sepsis is more likely to affect very young children, older adults, people with chronic diseases, and those with a weakened immune system, sepsis is an equal-opportunity killer impacting people of all ages and levels of health. Therefore, it is important to raise publicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s awareness and knowledge of sepsis so they can find medical help as fast as possible and saves life. Method: We used literature review by collecting a few journals and data from eligible sources such WHO and CDC website. Key finding: sepsis, awareness, knowledge.

CALMING: First-Aid Management of Febrile Seizure in Pediatrics Irene Audrey Davalynn P1, Dwinanda Tsania1, Hanna Lianti Afladhia1 1
Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia
Aim: The study aims to promote and raise the awareness about the correct way of handling febrile seizures in pediatrics. Background: Febrile seizure is a seizure accompanied by fever, without central nervous infection. It’s the most common form of childhood seizures, affecting 2-5% of children between 3 months and 5 years of age.1,2 Febrile seizures considered benign and self-limiting. It’s a terrifying experience for the parents, and is one of the most common causes of trips to the emergency room. Parents feel anxiety, fear and shock when their child suffers a febrile seizure, many parents think their child is dying during a febrile seizure. This anxiety comes due to lack of knowledge about the event and how to handle seizure.3 Method: We did a literature search in Pubmed about febrile seizure, including the epidemiology, clinical signs&symptoms, and first-aid management. Key findings: From the literature findings, we made a comprehensive summary and an abbreviation of the first-aid management, in order to make it easily remembered by the public. The abbreviation is “CALMING”, which stands for: stay “Calm”, pay “Attention”, “Lay” on tilted position, give “Medication” rectally, don’t “Insert” anything in the mouth, don’t “restraiN” the movements, keep away from “danGerous” objects.

Project Title : Early Detection and Management of Heart Attack Authors : 1. Jeanette Sefanya Yefta 2. Luigi Collins Aribowo 3. Michelle Joshaly Natasha 4. Richard Jefferson Krida Wacana Christian University Abstract : While the first leading cause of deaths in Indonesia is stroke, heart attack is the second, taking 138,400 lives every year. This totality depicts 8.9% of all deaths. Insufficiency nourishment, significant alcohol use, and high blood pressure are some of the rudimentary factors with this case. What makes heart attack fatal is it's potency to cause sudden deaths even in young and seemingly healthy person. With this public poster, we aim to grab public's attention to raise awareness on heart attack symptoms and inform how to manage them. We did our research by reviewing literatures (PubMed journals, American Heart Association's, and World Health Organization's website's contents). From the research we've done, we found out that the most important factor that determines the survival rate of heart attack is time. Every second counts when it comes to heart attack management. Thus, it's crucial to know the right and most efficient ways to spot and treat someone who's having a heart attack.

Seize the Seizure Universitas Pelita Harapan Jesslyn Alvina Yapiter, Stephanie Esperansa Seizure can cause any changes in the brain’s electrical activity. Any seizure can lead to a dramatic, noticable symptoms or even without any symptoms at all. Severe symptoms of the seizure that are often recognized include violent shaking and loss of control.1 A recurrent seizure is identified as an epilepsy. Epilepsy is defined as having 2 or more unprovoked seizures while one seizures doesn’t signify an epilepsy.2 According to WHO, approximately 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy, which makes it one of the most common neurogical diseases globally. 80% of people with epilepsy live in low and middle income countries.3 From a systematic review and meta-analysis studies shows that the point prevelence of active epilepsy was 6.38/1000 persons (95% confidence interval 5.57-7.30). While the lifetime prevelance was 7.60/ 1000 persons (95% CI 56.69-81.03).4 Eventhough seizure happens occassionally, its still a taboo in some communities. Most people don’t even realize that it’s one of the most important emergency case worldwide, and with our poster we aim to waken people about the importance of this emergency5. Prevention of seizure includes identifying biomarkers of epileptogenesis in population at risk and prevent any head trauma or injury as well.6

Myocardial Infarction, also known as heart attack, is one of the leading causes of death in the world. The World Health Organization has estimated that 12.2% of worldwide mortality is caused by heart disease. Heart attack is a medical emergency that requires immediate hospital attention. Every minutes that passed can be a difference between life and death. The aim of this poster is to raise public awareness regarding how urgent heart attack is and how a quick recognition of the symptoms and early response could save someone’s life. Common symptoms such as chest discomfort, shortness of breath, light-headedness, and else, are easy to be recognize even for general public. Although not every heart attack will display the same symptoms, we hope by recognizing these symptoms, people can act more quickly and save someone’s life. We research the most common signs of heart attack and created an abbreviation to encourage the public to remember the signs and what to do in an emergency. We sincerely hope that our poster will help raise awareness for both the general public or even medical communities and perhaps save a life.

Bring Baby to a Whole New world with MAGIC Author : 1. Arlinna Rahmananda Yuliana Putri 2. Nindar Amelia Prabandari 3. Kasilda Pasha D* 4. Reynaldo Aryesta Oka Prastica
Background Obstetrics emergency can lead us to an increase in Maternal Mortality Rates (MMR), which is a health issue that is still a concern lately. In developing countries MMR are still relatively high, for example in 2015 Indonesia reached 126/100.000 births, India 174/100.000 births, and Vietnam 54/100.000 births. Many of Obstetrics emergencies are triggers due to the ignorance of society about the sign and symptom of the mother who will give birth. Here we make the shortening of the sign and symptom of labor named "ALADIN" which will make it easier to remember. Increase of MMR are also contributed by several complication as we mentioned in the poster. In order to help the government to reduce MMR, we made a secret formula to prevent Obstetrics emergency that we called it “MAGIC”. We all hope that “MAGIC” could bring mothers and their baby to a whole new world that can helps decrease MMR. Aim In the end our poster is about how to recognize the sign and symptom of labor, complication and the prevention to prevent Obstetrics emergency. Methods We use systematic reviews of cross sectional studies that listed in references. Keyword Obstetrics Emergency, MMR ( Maternal Mortality Rate), ALADIN, MAGIC.

ABSTRACT Indonesia now a days occupied the world number five of the highest number of Asthma, and world number thirteen of the country with the most death due to asthma. Based on 2013 Basic Health Research data shows about 1 in 22 people suffer from asthma. However, only 54% were diagnosed whilw only 30% were well controlled. The factors that cause this issue is the level of public awareness of asthma in Indonesia is still low. The lack of diagnosis and therapy facilities also took part of this issue. In severe cases, asthma attacks can be very dangerous because it causes an obstruction or blockage of the airway that might lead to dead condition. Therefore, it is important to recognize the clinical symptoms to prevent asthma attacks. Generally, asthma symptoms such as coughing, shortness of breath, wheezing or breathing is accompanied as a whistle. The recurring symptoms (relapse) when a person is exposed to a stimulus or trigger factors of asthma relapse, and become heavy at night and early morning. Asthma itself is one form of allergy. The respiratory tract become more sensitive to stimulan or triggers. If it makes some contact with the originator, respiratory tract narrowed so that a person can experience breathlessness that can lead to death if not treated properly. With the dangerous of asthma disease, compounded by a lack of public understanding to handle this cases, so we need to share some process of education and socialization to the community how the initial treatment of asthma. Because we can save one life with share our knowledge. Keywords : Allergy, Asthma, Asthma Treatments

SWIM ABC: Guide to First Help in Drowning Lintang Cahyaning Ratri, Dwiastri Iris Sarwastuti, Nadine Natasha Iskandar Background In learning how to swim, one also need to learn how to avoid drowning and how to help someone whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drowning. Steps for helping a drowning person have been comprised to SWIM ABC to make it easier to memorize. S stands for see, meaning while swimming both at sea or pool, one needs to keep alert of any drowning victim. W stands for warn, meaning one who's helping must warn others, tell them that s/he is about to help, and ask them to call for help (ambulance). I stand for isolation, meaning the helper will isolate both him/herself and the victim from any potential danger, including water. M stand for measure, meaning after making sure that the surrounding is safe, the helper must measure the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s level of awareness and any visible damage/wounds. Afterwards, helper should check 3 main vital signs which are Airway, Breathing, and Circulation (ABC). Aim To educate people the crucial steps in dealing with drowning To promote SWIM ABC as a way to remember the procedure easily Brief Research Methodology Literature review from existing articles about first aid help and mix different steps from different source.

Abstract: Aim: To raise the survival probability of food-choking victims by educating people regarding the immediate action needed to help in the easiest ways possible. Background: Choking has killed approximately 5.200 persons in Unites States (Elflein J, 2019) and ranked fourth from the causes of unintentional injury death according to National Safety Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s injury fact in 2017 (Duckett & Roten, 2019). At least 1 child dies every five days from food-choking in the United States (Department of Health New York State, 2017). Death caused by choking is usually because of poor management. However, this problem can be solved by educating the public on the symptoms and maneuvers that can be used to deal with it. Around 95% of choking deaths happen at home (Chappin MM et al, 2013) so we should always be prepared whenever we encounter the event of choking to avoid losing our dear ones because of it. Brief Research Methodology: We conduct a research based on journals and governments' prevalence statistics online. From the studies, we found that choking is an unpredictable cause of death but also preventable. Key findings : Food-choking, Abdominal Thrust References: Chapin MM, Rochette LM, Annest JL, Haileyesus T, Conner KA, Smith GA. (2013).

Drowning: What to Do and How to Help Malikulsaleh, Salma Firdaus, Alif Raihan Laksono, Hanif Ardiansyah Airlangga University
Background Drowning, as defined by World Congress on Drowning 2002, is a process of experiencing respiratory impairment from submersion/immersion in liquid. On its official site, World Health Organization stated that drowning, surprisingly, is the 3 rd leading cause of unintentional injury death worldwide as well as caused roughly about 372,000 deaths per year. In South East Asia region, drowning is 2nd leading cause of death of 10-14 years old children (WHO, 2014). While more than 90% of the accident happened in low and middle income countries (WHO, 2014) where not only the socioeconomic but also the level of knowledge is arguably lower than developed countries, it is well understood that any insight about drowning, either how to overcome the situation or what kind of things that help the most are necessary and could be a life saver. Using this poster, we hope this information could be shared and later could be used to save more life. Objectives 1. To promote ‘SWIM’ and ‘HOLD’ as an easy-to-remember acronym of safe steps related to drowning 2. To encourage public to learn then to have a courage for using those steps to save not only their own life, but also others. References World Health Organization. 2014.

Severe Dehydration Universitas Pelita Harapan Marlyn Suciningtias, Audrey Hadisurya, Celine Chrystelle, Fenia Tandy Dehydration is a condition when an individual loses more liquid than they are taking in. There are 3 stages of dehydration: mild dehydration, moderate dehydration, and severe dehydration. In Mild and Moderate dehydration, drinking water or other fluids such as electrolyte is enough to help our body rehydrated. But in Severe dehydration we need medical help to rehydrate our body. Severe dehydration is a serious condition where someone needs medical intervention as soon as possible to prevent organ damage, such as kidney and liver, and other various dire complications, including death. Babies are at greater risk of developing dehydration. Babies can lose water through a wide variety of causes, one of the most common form is through vomiting and diarrhea. It is recorded that dehydration by diarrhea is one of the biggest single killers of children in the modern world, among children aged 28 days to five years, 1.7million of 6.6million, equal to 26% of deaths each year are caused by diarrhea. The initial symptoms of severe dehydration on babies are rapid and deep breathing, fainting, sunken dry eyes, sunken fontanelle, dry mouth, dark yellow pee, and cold hands and feet. Take your baby to the general practitioner immediately if these symptoms appear. This public poster is made to raise awareness and prevent severe dehydration on babies in the future. References: 1.

GIVING PAMPERS FOR INFANT Moh. Iqbal Irsyad Al Zaman, Elfindri Okgandita Veranie, Izza Amalia Putri, Nadiyya Dzawil Ma'la Universitas Jember
ABSTRACT First aid in emergency cases is something which can reduce or even save a person's life, especially in infants unable to do first aid without the help of others. The psychosexual phase that they experience indirectly leads the infants to actively find out everything that they encounter, and put it in the mouth, which is known as the oral phase. According to World Health Organization (WHO) in 2011 about 17.537 cases of choking are common in 18-36 months of infants. Therefore, telling people how to handle choking is really needed to be known by everyone, especially parents. With increasing knowledge about choking, the symptoms shortened to "infant" and treatment shortened to "pampers", it is hoped that cases of choking in infants can be treated immediately and do not cause complications and do not cause deaths. Research methodology is carried out by examining various reliable journals regarding choking cases. Keywords: infant, choking, pampers, oral phase

HUG ME TO SAVE ME Nadhilah Farisah; Andi Anugerah Sahrany; Da’watul Khair; Nurul Fadhiah Alissa Hasanuddin University, Makassar, South Sulawesi. ABSTRACT Choking occurs when there is foreign matter, food, or fluid that is blocking the respiratory tract or air flow in the throat. But usually the most common is when choking at mealtime. Usually, there are many people directly giving a drink to the person who is choking. But this is a wrong thing because by giving a drink, can make food enter the deeper respiratory tract. People around our environment should be given more education about how to deal with people who are choking on food. The first step that must be done to remove the foreign object in the respiratory tract: -
ask to “ coughing forcefully” until the foreign object comes out.
-
if a person who’s choking can’t cough, do five-and-five” method ( Hit the person’s back with the heel of your hand five times between the shoulder blades). Next, perform “Heimlich maneuver” five times (stand behind the person who coke, wrap both wist below the person's rib cage. with both hands holding each other, give upward and inward thrust to he/ she.). This poster aimed inform people to take appropriate emergency actions to help people who choke,
avoiding death due to choking, especially because of food.

FANTASTIC for Choking Natasya Ariesta Sellyardi Putri, I Made Agus Dwipayana, Faida Ufaira Prameswari, Hersati Prasetyo Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Airlangga Background: Choking is one of the most common phenomenons found in daily life. It can be caused by food, asthma, inhalation of various toxic substances or particles, and even neurological factor like stress-induced choking. This incident took 5,051 people to die in 2015. Furthermore, a child dies from choking on food every five days in U.S. Choking needs to be quickly done since it blocks the airway which can lead to death. Methodology: Literature Review Aim: Occurrence of choking can be prevented and treated by people. Based on literature review taken, choking mainly happens when eating, so sitting up straight, don’t rush when eating, cut the food into small pieces, chewing food thoroughly, and less talking are important. Choked people can be recognized by bluish skin, cough, and difficulty breathing. If it is happening, they can be asked to cough, helped by back blows or Heimlich maneuver (above 1 years old), CPR if unconscious, and by calling ambulance (119 for Indonesia, 102 for India) which are easier to be remembered with FANTASTIC. Key finding: Decreasing the death case caused by choking; Signs of choking; How to prevent choking; How to treat choking

The Emergency of Choking Universitas Pelita Harapan Nivia Permatasari, Klarasita Wibowo, Naomi Rachel Ivania Choking is an acute internal blockage of upper respiratory passage into the trachea by a solid foreign object. According to Injury Facts in 2017, choking is the fourth leading cause of unintentional injury death. There were 1.6 deaths from choking per 100.000 populations. These datas indicate that choking is a remarkably serious problem and that leads to our aim of making this public poster which is to educate people about the emergency management of choking until such time as we realized that the awareness of choking has to be raised within the community. Choking with a complete blocked airway may lead to oxygen deprivation or asphyxia which eventually can lead to death. The brain is extremely sensitive to this lack of oxygen and begins to die within four to six minutes. In this very crucial time, emergency medical teams may not arrive in time to save a choking person's life. Therefore, it is truly important for everyone to understand and be capable of managing this particular condition as it can lead to irreversible brain death in the span of 10 minutes. References: 1.

Aim: to educate the society about how to deal with daily emergency situations in daily life. Background/Introduction: Emergency medicine is the medical specialty dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of unforeseen illness or injury. The practice of emergency medicine includes the initial evaluation, diagnosis, treatment, coordination of care among multiple providers, and disposition of any patient requiring expeditious medical, surgical, or psychiatric care. But, the success of medical emergency services does not only depend on the ability of the medical crew, but also requires responsiveness from the family or the people who are around the patient when the emergency occurs. However, the most common society are lacking in understanding about how to respond to daily medical emergencies: steps and who is to contact at the time. Thus, it is important to educate the public on this matter, one of the ways is through a public poster. Research methodology: We conduct a comprehensive study and interpret the literature that adresses the topic of daily medical emergencies in the community and illustrate the information in a way that is easier for the community to understand through a public poster. Key findings: emergency medicine, daily medical emergencies, respond, society, community, steps, emergency contact

DO SAFE TO SAVE A LIVES ABSTRACT Raditya Widya Surianata, Salshabilah Azzahra Raswhita, Pravica Juti Arunasari University of Muhammadiyah Malang, Indonesia Currently, traffic accident becomes the main killers of humans with an age range of 5 to 29 years in the world. According to WHO, there are 750.000 deaths per year due to traffic accidents in 24 Asian countries. This condition makes first aid very important to do because it can affect the victim's condition afterward. Many people do first aid but don't understand how to do it properly then end up makes the victim's condition getting worse or even death. The wrong things that often during first aid are such as give the victim's water can cause choking, immediately moves the victim's body that has a serious injury can worsen the injury and many people surrounds the victim's body makes victim's lack of air. However, SAFE are the simplest things to do during first aid: Seek for help (call ambulance or nearby doctor), Avoid the crowd from the victim, Find pulse from the victim, and Ease the airway by not giving food or water.

Importance of Anaphylactic Shock Awareness Universitas Pelita Harapan Regan Elbert, Laurencya Stephanie Rusli, Jennifer Jesse Limanto, Griffin Geraldo Every person has their own unique allergens. This leads to unending and various combinations of substances that could make each person go into a serious allergic response. The allergic response may be varying, from hives, rashes, to systemic allergic response such as anaphylactic that could lead to a deadly shock caused by flooding of cytokines in our body. When people get into anaphylactic shock, the outcome may be fatal. But, we can minimize the complications of the disease by giving first aids to reduce the symptoms and prevent further damage. Through this public poster, we aim to educate and raise the awareness on how to give first aid for emergency conditions such as anaphylactic that could lead to anaphylactic shock. From the references, we have combined and assessed the objective for the public to recognize and give adequate first aid for people having anaphylactic conditions in a simple way. Hence, though this project, we also raise the awareness of how life-threatening the anaphylactic conditions are that could lead to death. References : 1. Anaphylaxis. (2018, November 14).

Time is Muscle : Act now before itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too late Universitas Indonesia Reynardi Larope Sutanto, Dara Ariqah Jibril, Mochammad Izzatullah Acute coronary syndrome or heart attack is one of the cardiovascular life-threatening diseases due to atherosclerosis plaque. The plaque is formed in the coronary artery causing a sudden decrease in blood flow to the heart. People with ACS usually feel a discomfort in their chest and the pain radiates until neck, left arm, and lower jaw. The issue of acute coronary syndrome is categorized in emergency medicine as time is very important factor that influences patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prognosis. In order to reduce the time delay to treatment, there is one term among the physician called the total ischaemic time (TIC). TIC is the maximum time needed in order to treat the ACS patient. Therefore, bringing patient as soon as possible before the TIC runs out is very important. When the patient feel the symptoms of chest pain, surrounding people must call an ambulance immediately or bring him or her to the nearest clinic or hospital. Because medical personnelles are not usually found near a person having a heart attack, we conclude that the public needs to know the importance of getting help as soon as possible for the survival of heart attack patient

Sandro Ruberto, Mardelia Nur Fatana, Shiany Henly Citraminata Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University Corresponding e-mail : ruberto.sandro@gmail.com, 21mardelianurfatana@gmail.com, shianyhenly@gmail.com ABSTRACT Background : One of the 3 leading causes of sudden death in sports activities is heat stroke.[2] This emergency condition is caused by extreme elevation of body temperature (higher than 40°C /104°F) which may cause cellular damage after 30 minutes or so of elevated temperatures.[1][5] Heat stroke kills hundreds of people in United State, data shown in 2015, 335 lives were killed , according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.[2][6] While, in India, mortality incidence has risen by 5 times from 2001 to 2015. Athletes, outdoor workers, infants, and the elderly are more prone to have a heat stroke. Sign and symptoms of heat stroke are hot, red, lack of sweating, throbbing headache, rapid heartbeat, and muscle cramp.[4] An uncontrolled extreme elevation of body temperature alters body function which leads to sudden death.[1] Therefore it is important to know the initial treatment that could be done as pre-hospital emergency care : move to shady spot, call emergency medical help, rehydrate, loose lifting cloth, cool water spraying, must be performed to reduce mortality rate.[3] Aim : To raise public awareness of the sign and prevention of heat stroke to reduce the incidence of death. Research Methodology : We collected journal published during 2015-2019 related to this topic. Keywords : Heat stroke, emergency, outdoor, dehydration Reference : 1. Ferri FF.

Alcohol-Like Mouth Odor!? CAUTION! Sarah Amira O., Wisnu Satrio E. L., Ardhito Rahadian, M. T. Yuki Inzaghi From Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Kristen Indonesia Background This poster is dedicated to spread information and give awareness to public about one of emergency state of diabetes mellitus which is: Diabetic Ketoacidosis. Especially for people with type 1 diabetes. And most of times appeared as a first clinical manifestation of a diabetic patients who hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been diagnosed yet. some conditions that can triggers diabetic ketoacidosis are infection, myocardial infarction, stroke, pancreatitis, trauma, and bad medication adherence. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happens because of severe insulin deficiency that cause breakdown of fatty acids (lipolysis) that produces ketone bodies. Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) continues to have high rates of morbidity and mortality despite advances in the treatment of diabetes mellitus.

TRIPLE C: FOR BURNS Airlangga University Saskia Intandivanty, Annisa Rahma, Isna Yefa, Qurrota Ayunin Background A burn is a trauma caused by heat, electric current, chemicals and lightning that affect the skin, mucosa and deeper tissues. Extensive burns affect metabolism and function every cell of the body, all systems can be disrupted, especially the cardiovascular system. Burns can be divided into first degree, second superficial, second deep, and third degree. First-degree burns only affect the epidermis accompanied by erythema and pain. Superficial seconddegree burns extend to epidermis and part of the dermis layer accompanied by blisters and very painful. The woundsecond degree burn in extends throughout the dermis. Third-degree burns extend to the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue, often capillaries and veins charred and blood to the tissue is reduced (Corwin, 2000). Objectives (Aim) To inform the readers about burns and ways to do first aid in burns. Brief Research Methodology When we did brainstorming to make a public poster, we use the discussion method with basic literature from books and the internet to get information.

Management of Snakes Bite Satria Addienul Haq Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Kristen Kirda Wacana
Abstract Indonesia was one of tropical countries in the world, and Indonesia have many things from culture, flora, and fauna. One of the important things for Indonesia is health care, in tropical countries we encounter a really special case that only happen in tropical countries which is tropical diseases. In Indonesia or other tropical countries have so many kind of snake species, that is why knowing how to treat snakes bite is important. Snake bites happen in most of rural area, which is the habitat of most snakes because rural area consist of big trees, paddy field, and other things. The most important thing to treat snake bites is time, you only have 30 minutes to get to hospital from the first time you got bite, only hospital have antivenom for snakes. First you need to calm down, if you the one who accompany the person who got bite, don’t leave him or her, clean up the wound, don’t wash it, and then bandage it tightly yet not too tight, don’t move it, don’t suck it, and go to hospital or nearest medical facilities that have snakes antivenom.

The Other Side of Diarrhea Satria Angga Widitama, Kelly Yosefinata, Nitzia Annisa Fitri Padjadjaran University
Diarrhea is the second leading cause of death in children under five years old. The main causes of death from diarrhea is fluid loss and severe dehydration. Diarrhea makes electrolytes and water lost through vomit, urine, sweat, breathing, and liquid stools during a diarrhea episode. If the lost from the body are not replaced, dehydration occurs. According to Kemenkes RI, the prevalance of diarrhea in children under the age of five years old is 12.3%. Diarrhea can be caused by infection (bacteria, viral, parasitic organism), malnutrition, faecescontaminated water, poor hygiene and sanitation. In this case, the role of parents play important thing. Parents should know what is the signs of diarrhea complication (dehydration), how to prevent, and how to give proper treatment as soon as diarrhea begins. Nowadays, there are so many people still assume that diarrhea is not a serious issue. But the fact is diarrhea can be life-threatening. Recent studies has shown a lack of awareness of diarrhea among policy makers, health care practitioner, and the community in Indonesia. Therefore, we hope that parents can be more aware and be fast to give treatment, also policy makers, health care practitioner, and the community do not underestimate the life-threatening effect of diarrhea anymore.
336
Brief Research Methodology We gathered information through guidelines from WHO, CDC, and data from Kemenkes RI 2018, analyzed and summarized the information to make them easily understood. Key findings: Etiology of diarrhea Epidemiology of diarrhea Sign of dehydration Treatment Prevention Sources: WHO â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Diarrhoeal Disease CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)

STROKE? ACT FAST AND LIFE WILL LAST Universitas Pelita Harapan Sharon Chen, Rivaldo Steven Heriyanto, Billy Susanto, Dewa Ayu Kalista Liani Adiya Stroke is a disease that affects the arteries leading to and within the brain. It occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either ruptured or blocked by a clot. When that happens, the brain can’t get enough blood and brain cells will die. With our stroke prevalence being 14,6 per 1000, Indonesia’s population of stroke is over 6 times the amount of Brunei’s and can make up as much as 60% of Singapore’s whole population. That being said, with this poster, we aim to bring this disease to light and educate citizens about how they can contribute by noticing the first signs of stroke. The objective of this poster is to raise public awareness about the first signs of stroke. Because stroke treatments that work best, such as thrombolytics, are only available if stroke is diagnosed within 3 hours of the first symptoms, it is crucial to recognize and diagnose stroke as fast as possible. With 90% of stroke cases being preventable within it’s golden period and with the right treatment, we aim to raise awareness on the first signs of stroke that will allow quick diagnosis so patients can get better treatment.

Save Life from Getting Electric Shock with SMACK Shisilia Mitra Novita, Saskia Rezky D. L., Laila Faiqotul Husna, Putri Brilian B.V. Faculty of Medicine Airlangga University ABSTRACT Background: Electric shock refers to the injury caused by the passage of electricity through the body. The most common causes are faulty or poorly maintained indoor electrical supplies. Our body is conductive with resistance varying depending on which part to measure and how electrical contact is made. Thus, electrical shock is an emergency situation. Based on latest study, electric shock is related to significant morbidity and mortality in children, adolescent, and adult. Electrical shock can cause severe burns, cardiopulmonary arrest, and other multisystem complications. Approximately, 300 deaths and 4000 injured people is caused by electrical shock. However, many people believe that normal household current and insulated power lines are not lethal and pose a hazard. This public poster is a recommended way to warn and educate them but still there is an obstacle to introduce our project to illiterate people. Hence, verbal introduction is needed. Objective: This project is designed to persuade people, knowing what to do in an electrical shock incident in order to save a life by SMACK, to prevent and minimize electric shock-caused morbidity and mortality by educating people. Brief Research Methodology: We conduct this public poster by journal article literation.

Seizure, Make Sure Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re Not Insecure Jenderal Achmad Yani University Tazkiya Qalby, Tsana Makarim, Shela Azizah, Selvia Epilepsy, in Greek, Epilambanmein has a meaning as an attack. Before, people believed that epilepsy was a sacred disease caused by evil spirits. In fact, epilepsy is a manifestation of impaired brain function with various etiologies with the typical single symptom that is recurrent seizures due to local electrical sparks on the brain's substantia grisea that occur at any time, sudden, and very fast which can result in decreased consciousness, changes in motor function or sensory, behavioral or emotional intermittent and stereotypic. Epilepsy affects about 50 millions people throughout the world common in childhood and in elderly people. Status epilepticus (SE) is a neurological emergency, can cause brain damage and even death if left untreated. Based on the recent understanding of the pathophysiology, SE is defined as a continuous seizure that lasts more than 5 min probably needs to be treated as SE. SE mortality in hospitals increases gradually with age and SE severity. The prognosis of patients with epilepticus status is related to the etiology, duration of epilepticus status, and the patient's age. Epilepsy is disabling neurologic condicition, so the awareness of people must be increased to prevent a worse condition of epilepsy. Keywords : Seizure, Awareness, Status Epilepticus.

Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema: Every Breath Counts Thania Lathifatunnisa Putri Agusti, Shalsabila Refithania Yanata, Tsamara Nurwina Nugroho Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University Corresponding e-mail: thania.lpa@student.undip.ac.id, shalsabilaryanata@students.undip.ac.id, winanugroho@students.undip.ac.id
ABSTRACT Aim The unavailability of medical professionals on premise of CPE (Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema) emergency might put the patient in higher risk. In this situation, there are three things to consider: 1.
Correct posture of the patient to allow proper airway and breathing.
2.
Clearance for the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s air circulation through:
3.
a.
Bringing the patient to open surroundings
b.
Unclothing the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clothes that might restrict air circulation
Comfort of the patient.
Any underlying cause should be identified when starting treatment.
Background/Introduction Pulmonary edema is a life-threatening condition with an estimated 75.000 to 83.000 cases per 100.000 persons having heart failure and low ejection fraction. It refers to the accumulation of excessive fluid in the alveolar walls and spaces of the lungs which can be (1) Cardiogenic (disturbed starling forces involving the pulmonary vasculature and interstitium) or (2) Non-Cardiogenic (direct injury/damage to lung parenchyma/vasculature). Brief Research Methodology The method used in this research is systematic literature review by planning, conducting, and planning about Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema. We also use advance research with PubMed Central as the main database.
Key Findings Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema, Emergency, Management

ABSTRACT How to PASS Shortness of Breath Aurelia Gendis, Chatrine Angelica D. C., Joyna Getruida S., Timothy V. P. Reba From Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Kristen Indonesia Background Dyspnea or shortness of breath is a condition where a person has difficulty breathing. These symptoms can affect millions of people where the sensation and intensity can be different and occur subjectively1. Dyspnea or shortness of breath that occurs suddenly becomes one of the challenges in handling it in the emergency department2. Dyspnea can be caused by many different underlying factors, some of which arise acutely and can be life-threatening and it is a common symptom affecting as many as 25% of patients seen in the ambulatory setting3. To deal with shortness of breath which is now an emergency and requires direct treatment, we have four methods that are summarized in PASS. P
- Pain medicines to relieving pain in the chest
A - Antianxiety medicines to help break the panic S
- Steroids to help reduce swelling in the lungs
S
- Sitting and relax your body for breathing easier

ABSTRACT Aim: To increase awareness of Steven-Johnson Syndrome/Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis. Background: Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) are the most worrisome drug eruptions seen in the emergency department, involving extensive epidermal necrosis and detachment, with mucocutaneous complications. 12 This condition mostly caused by medication, such as allopurinol, anticonvulsants, and antibiotics.3 SJS and TEN differ only along a spectrum of severity based on percentage of body surface involvement (<10% in SJS, 10%-30% in SJS/TEN overlap, 30% in TEN).2 The incidence of SJS is approximately 5 cases per million people per year, and whereas TEN is approximately 2 cases per million people per year. 4 SJS/TEN may lead to massive fluid and protein loss, electrolyte imbalances, evaporative heat loss with subsequent hypothermia, and hypovolemia.2 It is surely a life-threatening state. Immediate recognition and initial treatment must be performed to reduce mortality.4 Method: We collected Journal related to topic. The inclusion criteria are those published during 20152019. Key Findings: Steven-Johnson Syndrome, Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis, drug eruption, emergency.

ABSTRACT WE NEED YOU (ALIVE)! William Wiradinata1, Ni Made Susanti1, Luh Elda Geraldine1, Putu Ijiya Danta1 1
Medical Faculty of Brawijaya University
Background : Cardiac arrest is the abrupt loss of heart function in a person who may or may not have been diagnosed with heart disease. It can come on suddenly, or followed by other symptoms. Cardiac arrest caused by irregular heart rhythms, called arrhythmias. A common arrhythmia associated with cardiac arrest is ventricular fibrillation which the heart’s lower chambers suddenly start beating chaotically and don’t pump blood or called “arrest”. Cardiac arrest is still a major international public health problem estimated 15%–20% of all deaths. About 350,000 cardiac arrests happen outside of hospitals each year—and about 7 in 10 of those happen at home. In 2017, The American Heart Association (AHA) develops science-based CPR guidelines. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is an emergency lifesaving procedure performed when the heart stops beating. Immediate CPR can double or triple chances of survival after cardiac
arrest.
As cardiac arrest often occurs in unexpected places around us, everyone must understand and able to do the emergency management of Cardiac Arrest. Objective : To inform people how to recognize people with cardiac arrest and early management of cardiac arrest because WE NEED YOU to have a role in giving people chances of being ALIVE.

PREVENT SUICIDE WITH SHINE Wiranigitasari, Ave Maria, Nanda Ayu Shabrina, Shafa Maulida AMSA-Universitas Brawijaya
BACKGROUND Suicide is a leading cause of death in adolescents, and is one of the most common psychiatric presentation of the youth to the Emergency Department. According to World Health Organization, every year, almost 800,000 people take their own life and 20 million attempt to do the same thing. Suicide is a serious public health problem and it usually started from an ideation of suicide. A study conducted in Japan in 2015 shows that the progression from the onset of suicide ideation until the suicide attempt mostly occurs in only one day. In suicide prevention, strategies can be directed toward health care services or at the general population. This marks surroundings play an important role to prevent the attempt happens. However, suicides are preventable with timely, evidence-based and often low-cost interventions. OBJECTIVES To inform people what should they do when they see someone who has a tendency to commit a suicide action and to decrease the number of people die by suicide.

Beware of Eclampsia: Treat with ‘TIC TAC’ Yosia Yonggara, Vincent Kurniawan, Benedictus, Shohifa Dzauqiah S Faculty of Medicine, Sebelas Maret University Abstract Pre-eclampsia is a systemic syndrome of hypertension and proteinuria in pregnancy (Gupte, 2014). Meanwhile, eclampsia is a tonic-clonic seizure manifested in pre-eclampsia women (Gill, 2019). These diseases are the major cause of fetal and maternal mortality (Ayoubi, 2011). 3-5% of all pregnant women affected by these diseases and cause more than 60.000 maternal and 500.000 fetal death per year worldwide (Peres, 2018). Eclampsia is a serious disorder that needs special attention because of the multi-organ system that can be affected. The patient that had experienced eclampsia has to be monitored because of the serious complications that may occur, which are cortical blindness, neurological deficits, stroke coronary event, renal failure, liver dysfunction, DIC, death, and intrauterine growth restriction (Gill, 2019). Signs that can be seen before eclampsia include persistent frontal or occipital headache, blurred vision, photophobia, right upper quadrant or epigastric pain, and altered mental status. The fact shown above proves that these are a life-threatening disease. Unfortunately, the knowledge of the public toward the disease is still limited (Akeju, 2016; Savage, 2016; Wilkinson, 2017). Thus, through this public poster, we aim to educate society about pre-eclampsia and eclampsia, its danger, and first-aid. To help the society remembering the first-aid of eclampsia, we proposed a tagline “TIC TAC” which is an acronym for the instructions in an emergency Keyword: Pre-eclampsia, Eclampsia, First-aid References: Akeju, D.

AMSA-Indonesia A 60-year-old male presented to the Emergency Department of Rumah Sakit Daerah (RSD) dr. Soebandi Jember with a severe open fracture of his right lower extremity especially right leg (cruris dextra) after hit by a truck in a traffic accident. Patient came with massive bleeding because the rupture of tibial and femoral arteries. His current blood pressure at that time was 90/60 mmHg. So, it was suspected as hypovolemic shock since his Capillary Refill Time (CRT) is delayed more than 2 seconds and his lower extremity lacks of perfusion. He had already given initial prophylactic antibiotic treatment such as cefazolin and amoxicillin. After more than 3 months, he suffered a pyogenic infection with a biofilm plaque formation on his surgical sites. The diagnosis of surgical site infection (SSI) by Methicillinresistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was made after passing microbiology identification and antibiotic susceptibility test using Kirby Bauer disc diffusion methods. This S.aureus resisted to 12 of 18 antibiotics that was tested including beta-lactams and macrolides groups of antibiotics. This case report of surgical site infection in a postoperative of severe open fracture can be used to evaluate the empirical treatment and the proper use of antibiotics that is used in emergency department of RSD dr. Soebandi. This report is an initial step to do some studies in order to conclude the evidence of nosocomial infection in emergency department of RSD dr. Soebandi. Hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Antibiogram is needed for having a high efficacy of nosocomial infection treatment. Future research should aim to identify and quantify the incidence risk of infection after treatment by the hospital. Moreover, it also should aim to conclude the best practices for management of infection and for prophylactic antibiotic use.

The results of that wound culture were identified biochemically and microscopically. The bacterial colony was cocci and was Gram-positive. Based on that staining, it was suspected as staphylococci or streptococci. The catalase and coagulase test results were positive. Catalase test was done to make sure that the pathogen is staphylococci. While, coagulase test for ensuring that pathogen is Staphylococcus aureus. The bacterial culture results

A. Introduction Trauma is still a leading cause of death and has an enormous impact on the patient's life and health systems. Motorcycle accidents are the most frequent cause of multiple trauma. According to the "WHO Global Status Report on Road Safety" more than 1.2 million people die on the world's roads every year and 50 million others are injured (World Health Organization, 2016). In Indonesia, the prevalence of traffic accidents in 2018 was 28,262 with a mortality rate of 5,914. During 2019 until June, there have been 4,180 traffic accidents with a mortality rate of 1,044 with a single traffic accident of 172 cases (Pfeifer et al, 2016). The hospital course of patients with multitrauma injuries is frequently accompanied by severe complications. Multitrauma usually presents challenging clinical scenarios with musculoskeletal injuries that are life-threatening and needs immediate management. Hemorrhagic shock is one of the central problems in patients with multitrauma and a common cause of death. (Frink et al, 2017). In this case, the patient suffered multitrauma due to traffic accidents. At first glance the patient was seen only exposed to open fractures on the right foot. However, it seems that the patient also suffered other traumas like head injury which makes the patient in need of special medical handling immediately. Based on the rare occurrence of this incident, the varied needs of treatment, and the need for close supervision of the patient to maintain and improve the patient's condition wherever possible. B. Patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s History A 28 years old man with an initial of SI was referred to the hospital after a single motorcycle traffic accident. A Visual Analog Score results in 4-5/10 that describes the moderate pain. For primary survey, medical professionals present at the moment assessed the patient with a basic ABCDE (Airway, Breathing, Circulation, Disability, Exposure) approach. The results are patent breathing, in which the patient has a clear and open airway and is able to inhale and exhale properly. Breathing is spontaneous and the movement is symmetrical with a respiratory rate of 24x/minute. Pulse rate result in 84x/minute with a blood pressure of 137/76 mmHg. Glasgow Coma Scale result in 125. The patient cannot open their eyes in response to a command, emits incomprehensible sounds, and moves to localized pain. Anisocoria, or a difference in the diameter of the two pupils are found 5mm/3mm. This lateralization discovery lead to suspicion of intracranial injury.

For secondary survey, used AMPLE method to assess medical history. The patient has no allergic (A), medication (M), nor previous chronic illness for a past medical history (P). The last meal (L) the patient had done at least 8 hours before the single motorcycle accident (E). C. Examinations and Investigations Anamnesis: The patient presents with decreasing consciousness, an laceration on his right leg followed with a swelling on his right toes. This patient also has a history of fainting without vomiting. Physical Examination During physical examination of the head and neck, we found no signs of anemia/ icterus/ jaundice. The patient also has no otorrhea and rhinorrhea.

Figure 6. Image of the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teeth. During thorax examination, a symmetrical breathing with vesicular breathing sound is found without wheezing. No abnormalities are found during abdominal examination. On the extremities, relatively warm fingertips with a capillary refill time (CRT) < 2. Motoric and sensory abilities are hard to evaluate. Both bulbocavernosus reflex (BCR) test and tonus sphincter ani (TSA) test are positive. Physiologic reflex proved to be positive, while the pathologic effect proved to be negative. Local status: The local status of the right lower leg shows swelling, deformity, and laceration with a dimension of 5x2 cm. The wounded area is tender with a limited range of motion.

Figure 14. Image of right pedis CT scan. The case presents with a traumatic acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) and subdural hygroma which happens in the subdural space. In normal human anatomy, this subdural space does not exist. This space will only appear as a wound called intradural lesion through a mechanical separation of the dura-arachnoid interface (Wittschieber et al, 2015). A traumatic ASDH is a collection of the blood that fills the subdural
386
space between internal dura mater and arachnoid. This is caused by the fact that traumatic injuries are usually mechanical trauma. Subdural hygroma is classically described as protein-rich, clear, pink-tinged, or xanthochromic fluid collections within the subdural space. Component of a subdural appears to be cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-like. In radiology, the definition of subdural hygroma is more difficult because of the heterogenous appearance. Almost all the subdural hygroma cases caused by mechanical head injuries as seen in this case and represent rare post traumatic complication that may coexist with epidural or subdural hematomas (Wittschieber et al, 2015). In this case therapy for ASDH and hygroma are head up 30 degree and O2 via NRBM 10 lpm. The study of Bajsarowicz et al (2015) most acute traumatic subdural hematoma are managed conservatively, with 77% of the patients in study achieving a good early outcome. Only a small proportion of the conservatively managed patients will deteriorate and require surgery. The head up 30⁰ management is to decrease significantly the mean carotid pressure and decrease intracranial pressure (ICP) so it can stabilize cerebral blood flow (CBF). The O2 therapy is to resolve the hypoxia of the brain that occurs by space occupying lesion. The patient is exposed to open fracture on the proximal third of the right tibia and fibula, swelling (+), deformity (+), vulnus laceratum (+) size 5x2cm, tenderness (+), NV distal normal, ROM limited, with CT scan shows disalignment, complete oblique fracture, and normal joint. Gustilo Anderson grade III-A open fractures. Fracture complete oblique can occur because of the pressure in the form of compressions received by the bone when the patient crashes into a tree. Human bones are able to receive the most pressure in the form of compressions and are able to withstand the least pressure in the form of shears. That can happen because bones have anisotropic characteristic (Apley and Solomon, 2018). Initial therapy and management that can be done to overcome open fracture in these patients, namely cleaning debridement and immobilization with the backslab method. Furthermore, IVFD NS 0.9% 1500cc / 24hour administration is performed to restore the balance of body fluids and NaCl, inj. Cefazolin 1gr intravenously to prevent infection. (“Cefazoline”, inj. Intramuscular Tetagam as a prophylactic tetanus infection. (“Tetagam”, 2019). For further action, Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) is a surgery done to fix a bone using surgical plates, nails, screws or pins. Under general or local anesthesia, an incision is made over the fractured bone. Once the bone is placed in its proper position, screws, pins, plates or nails are attached to stabilize it. Longer bones may be repaired with a nail placed directly in the bone cavity. Patients will be expected to not eat and limit drink to clear liquids for at least six hours before the procedure. The area to be treated will be cleaned and shaved immediately prior to the surgery. (Sun et al, 2018). To treat pain after surgery given therapy by inj. Ketorolac 30 mg iv and inj. (“Ketorolac”, 2019) Ranitidine 50 mg intravenously for prophylaxis of acid aspiration during anesthesia. (“Ranitidine”, 2019) Physical examinations of the head show no signs of anemia or icterus. This means that the rate of which the red blood cells (RBCs) are broken down in the liver did not surpass the production rate of new RBCs. Billirubin, a breakdown product of hemoglobin, did not accumulate in the body, hence why the patient showed no signs of typical icterus. Essentially, this means that the patient does not have any liver problem due to the
387
trauma. No blood accumulation is found in the ears as there is no laceration found in the scalp nor a fracture found in the auditory canal, specifically in the external posterosuperior region. No findings of bloody rhinorrhea also means that there are no direct trauma to the internal nasal cavity. A positive bowel sound is found in the patient which is a normal case. This means that the patient does not undergo intestinal paralysis and the gastrointestinal tract is working normally. This is also shown by a positive tonus sphincter ani (TSA) test that shows a fully working tonic contraction for anal closure. A positive bulbocavernosus reflex (BCR) test, referring to anal sphincter contraction in response to squeezing the glans penis or tugging on the Foley may indicate intact spinal reflex arcs (S2–S4 spinal segments) with afferent and efferent nerves through the pudendal nerve. The patient presents with a respiratory rate of 24x/minute (normal:16-20x/minute), an increase compared to its normal value rate due to intracranial bleeding with a volume of 1 cc. A substantial amount of blood loss, such as one in this case, may result in hemodynamic compromise occurring in the chest, abdomen, and retroperitoneum and can end up with a hemorrhagic shock condition, due to a depleted amount of effectively distributing blood volume in a body’s circulatory system. At this point, the body will not be able to match the tissue demand for oxygen and will utilize anaerobic metabolism to meet the cellular demand and avoid necrosis. This process will result in the production of ketones. In addition, the intravascular volume loss will be compensated through increasing heart rate and its contractility. Hence, both the patient’s blood pressure and respiratory rate increase beyond normal levels. Typically in this condition, the patient will have a slightly increased diastolic pressure and a decreased sistolic pressure, followed by a narrowing heart rate. However, the present case shows a blood pressure of 137/76 mmHg, in which the diastolic pressure decreases by a little and a normal heart rate 84x/minute. However, the body’s compensation for this may vary by cardiopulmonary comorbidities, age, and vasoactive medications. The designated location of mandibular fractures was based on the modified classification schemes proposed by Dingman et al. Mandibular classification segments including the parasymphysis, body, angle, ramus, condyle, subcondyle, coronoid process, and alveolar ridge, alveolar ridge fratures were defined as fractures confined to the alveolar ridge without extension into the inferior aspect on the mandible. The fracture has been classified as unifocal or multifocal, and in the multifocal group, all fractures sites were recorded including the involvement of fractures unilaterally or bilaterally (Butch, 2016).
388
Figure 16. Buch, K. et al, 2016. Unifocal versus multifocal mandibular fractures and injury location. Emergency radiology, 23(2), pp.161-167. The classification of mandible according to the Dingman and Natvig Mandibular classification segments . Both unifocal and multifocal fractures were found to most commonly involve the mandibular angle. Fractures involving the parasymphyseal region as well as the mandibular body and ramus were strongly associated with the presence of additional fractures. Parasymphyseal fractures and fractures involving the mandibular ramus and body were significantly associated with multifocal mandibular fractures (Butch, 2016.) In this case there is no status that indicates the patient has suffered from mandibular fractures, however after imaging examination, it was discovered that the patient has suffered from it. The two lines of fractures found is defined as multifocal-unlateral fractures. The first line is located on the parasymphyseal with complete oblique displaced line of fractures, with involvement of the teeth. The second line is located on the mandibular angle with complete transverse displaced line of fractures (Apley and Solomon, 2018). From there, the patient is diagnosed with segmental fracture of the right mandible.
389
Figure 17. Image of head 3D CT scan. D. Diagnosis This patient is diagnosed with Severe Head Injury with a GCS score of 125, with subdural hygroma and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), and subdural hematoma. The team also found a segmental fracture of the right mandible. An open fracture on the right third proximal tibia-fibula of grade IIIA is also found. E. Treatment and Course Treatment plans The medical team planned a non-operative management for the neurological aspect of the treatment course. However, a cito Archbarr and facial reconstruction surgery is planned. Orthopedic treatments of the right lower leg include debridement, backslab, and and Open Rediction Internal Fixation (ORIF) surgery. For the right foot, the team planned bulky bandaging. The patient has been given a treatment course of Head up 30°, O2 intake via Non Re-breather Mask 10 lpm, IVFD NS 0.9% 1500cc/24 hours, an injection of Cefazolin 1gr iv, an injection of Tetagam 250iu im, an injection of Ketorolac 30 mg iv, and also an injection of Ranitidin 50 mg iv. We also plan to monitor the patient’s vital signs and Glasgow Coma Scale on an interval. B1-B6 functions should also be assessed alongside the progressivity of compartment syndrome (6P: Pain, Poikylothermia, Paresthesia, Paralysis, Pulselessness, and Pallor.). The patient’s therapy response should also be monitored thoroughly. F. Challenges Faced The challenges in this case are acute subdural hematoma, acute subdural hygroma, and grade IIIA open fracture tibia-fibula because of their complications, in which the sudden and severe bleeding causes subdural hematoma. The patient may lose consciousness and experience syncope, as in this case, but sometimes they can appear normal in a few days because of a slower rate of bleeding. Hence, there may be no noticeable symptoms after a few weeks, or even worse, might be misdiagnosed. The symptoms of this hematoma various greatly, such as headache, lethargy, dizziness, nausea, confusion, etc. These various symptoms make subdural hematoma relatively difficult to identify due to the fact that there are no specific symptoms. The mortality rate is also relatively higher at about 60% of the total reported cases. Acute subdural hygroma, on the other hand, is mostly asymptomatic with little mass effect. And so to define the diagnosis, the use of CT scan or MRI is highly required. Symptoms, if ever found, are generally unspecific such as headache, nausea, vomiting, focal neurologic, and seizure. On the other hand, the morbidity of subdural hygroma is comparatively high. This is due to the fact that it can be the predisposing factor of chronic subdural hematoma that can actually make this condition more severe (Ahn et al, 2016). Based on Gustilo classification, this type II open fracture tibia-fibula has 2-7% risk of infection from the surrounding normal floras or environment. All open fractures are by definition contaminated and must be treated as such.
390
G. Discussion The case presents with a traumatic acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) and subdural hygroma which happens in the subdural space. In normal human anatomy, this subdural space does not exist. This space will only open as a wound called intradural lesion through a mechanical separation of the dura-arachnoid interface (Wittschieber et al, 2015). A traumatic ASDH is a collection of the blood that fills the subdural space between internal dura mater and arachnoid. This is caused by traumatic injuries, usually mechanical trauma. In ASDH, there is also a space-occupying lesion to increase intracranial pressure that is often complicated by co-existing injuries, including a variety of diffuse injuries, contusional hematomas, and edemas. An ASDH occurs less than 72 hours after the incident. In one study, 82% of syncope patients with acute subdural hematomas had parenchymal contusions. The severity of the diffuse parenchymal injury has a strong inverse correlation with the outcome of the patient especially affects his/her consciousness. The mortality of ASDH relatively high about 60% of the total cases. A total of 59 patients were included with 29 died. The causes of subdural hematoma are the tearing of a surface and bridging vessel. Venous bleeding can be stopped by increasing intracranial pressure (ICP) or direct compression from the clot itself. Otherwise, an arterial source up to 30% of total cases caused by rupture of small cortical arteries around <1mm in diameter. The arteries subdural hematoma likely found in temporoparietal and the venous subdural hematoma likely found in frontoparietal. Another mechanism on how the hematoma occurred is through intracranial hypotension with resultant traction on bridging veins or expansion of cerebral veins following by leakage of fluid into the subdural space. There are three mechanisms of acute subdural hematoma pathophysiology. The first mechanism is a decrease in the cerebral blood flow (CBF) immediately after the injury. Normal or restored systemic blood pressure and arterial oxygenation can suggest non systemic causes. This cerebral blood flow reduction might result from the decrease of cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) due to intracranial pressure (ICP) increase. The second mechanism is that coagulopathy can occur in brain trauma injury, induced by stimulation tissue factor pathway, resulting in systemic bleeding tendency shortly after trauma. This coagulopathy might interfere with intracranial hematoma and might lead to worse conditions. In this condition, a high D-dimer level has been demonstrated to correlate with a poor outcome in a traumatic intracranial hematoma. And the third mechanism is the delayed deterioration that inverses correlation with elderly patients. With age, the brain will undergo atrophy and so, to compensate blood accumulation and brain swelling, it develops larger intracranial spaces. This condition occurs within 6 hours after trauma, of which, the early cerebral blood flow decrease. After about 2 weeks, synthesis of dural collagen is induced and fibroblastic growth results in the formation of a thick outer membrane over the inner dural surface, followed by encapsulation of the clot (Karibe et al, 2014). Subdural hygroma is classically described as protein-rich, clear, pink-tinged, or xanthochromic fluid collections within the subdural space. Component of a subdural collection appears to be cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-like. If there is a mixture of blood and CSF is referred to as hemato hygroma. General morphologic types:
391
1. Cystic and often multichambered formations encapsulated by a membrane. 2. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Freeâ&#x20AC;? fluid collections without any capsule. In radiology, the definition of subdural hygroma is more difficult because of the heterogenous appearance. Almost all the subdural hygroma cases caused by mechanical head injuries as seen in this case and represent rare post traumatic complication that may coexist with epidural or subdural hematomas. Subdural hygroma also can result from trauma and from cranial operations in which the arachnoid membrane is opened, leading to CSF transfer into the subdural space. A ball-valve mechanism of the arachnoid is assumed to prevent a backflow of CSF into the subarachnoid space (Wittschieber et al, 2015).
Figure 15. Wittschieber, D., Karger, B., Niederstadt, T., Pfeiffer, H., & Hahnemann, M. L. (2015). Subdural hygromas in abusive head trauma: pathogenesis, diagnosis, and forensic implications. American Journal of Neuroradiology, 36(3), 432-439. In mandible fractures, the fracture lines were suspected to be caused by a force that came from lower right impact, causing the setback of segmental fracture. While the fracture lines in the mandibular angle is suspected to be caused by opposing muscle forces from the mandibular elevators and depressors, zones are created of maximal tension and maximal compression along the superior and inferior margins of the mandible, respectively.
According to the working diagnosis (segmental fracture of the right mandible), further actions to be driven out in this case is external fixation as a damage control surgery to immobilize the mandible fracture segments. There are some common technique which can be use in MMF such as Arch Bars, Ernst ligatures and Bone supported devices including intermaxillary fixation (IMF) screws, hanger plates and interact miniplates in this case the technique used is the arch bar, as the arch bar is set as the gold standard in MMF
392
(Mandibulomaxillary fixation). The bars are cut and fitted on both dentitions. The technic start by counting 18 lugs, then position the bars so the lugs open away from the crowns to allow MMF wires. The standard is to use 24-gauge stainless steel circumdental wires twisted closed in a clockwise rotation. Wires may be prestretched to lessen wire stretching and loosening after surgery. Factory-cut wires may be less sharp and may lessen the risk of puncture injury. Position the patient into maximum intercuspation, and place MMF wires or elastics. (Brennan, 2012). This immobilization action must be taken to prevent further damage caused by the movement of fracture segments and helps to make the wound healing process go well. Besides, this quick-inquick-out is used to reduce the pain which also caused by the movement of mandible fracture segments so the patient can get early nutrition intake. But beyond that, arch bar is not a definitive therapy for patients. Arch bar is used for temporary fragment stabilization in emergency cases before early total care which is mandible reconstruction as a definitive treatment. Arch bar can be used as a definitive therapy in cases where the patient suffer simple fractures, in example, the fracture segments are not comminutive, do not shift, not the segmented mandible fracture, etc. According to the diagnosis (segmental fracture of the right mandible), further actions to be driven out in this case is Closed Reduction. Closed reduction can be accomplished with a variety of techniques with and without the dentition. The technic which used is Erich Arch Bars Arch. Bars are considered the standard in MMF. These are cut and fitted on both dentitions. The technic start by counting 18 lugs, then position the bars so the lugs open away from the crowns to allow MMF wires. The standard is to use 24-gauge stainless steel circumdental wires twisted closed in a clockwise rotation. Wires may be pre-stretched to lessen wire stretching and loosening after surgery. Factory-cut wires may be less sharp and may lessen the risk of puncture injury. y Position the patient into maximum intercuspation, and place MMF wires or elastics. In case intended for long term use, patients must be aware of the risks to teeth and periodontum and have adequate follow-up care (Brennan, 2012). These fracture lines were suspected to be caused by a force that came from lower right impact, causing the setback of segmental fracture. While the fracture lines in the mandibular angle is suspected to be caused by opposing muscle forces from the mandibular elevators and depressors, zones are created of maximal tension and maximal compression along the superior and inferior margins of the mandible, respectively.
393
Another further action taken in this case is Closed Reduction. Closed reduction can be accomplished with a variety of techniques with and without the dentition. The technique which used is Erich Arch Bars fixation. Arch Bars are considered the standard in MMF. These are cut and fitted on both dentitions. Tis technique starts by counting 18 lugs, and then position the bars so that the lugs open away from the crowns to allow MMF wires. The standard is tu use 24-gauge stainless steel circumdental wires twisted closed in a clockwise rotation. Wires may be prestretched to lessen wire stretching and loosening after surgery. Factorycut wires may be less sharp and may lessen the risk of puncture injury. y Position the patient into maximum intercuspation, and place MMF wires or elastics. In case intended for long term use, patients must be aware of the risks to teeth and periodontum and have adequate follow-up care (Brennan, 2012). In this case, the doctor diagnosed that open fractures of the tibia and fibula from the patient is included in the Gustilo Anderson III A classification, consisting of displacement, periosteum tears and occurs in places with high contamination, namely the highway. The mechanism of injury involves high energy, it can be seen from many trauma experienced by patients and decreased consciousness. For operative therapy the doctor performs 2 times, for the first therapy, the doctor performs debridement as a damage control surgery, after about 5 days later the doctor performs ORIF surgery. The reason why ORIF is done 5 days after being bred is to avoid infection because the ORIF plate is a good medium for bacterial growth and supports bacteria to form biofilms. Therefore, ORIF is not directly performed on patients who have just had debridement, it must be ensured beforehand the signs of inflammation and pro-inflammatory cytokines have decreased.

H. Conclusion In this case, the patient is diagnosed as a multiple trauma patient with details of: 1. Severe head injury with 125 as the GCS score, subdural hygroma, intra cranial hemorrhage (ICH) more specifically is subdural hematoma. In this case, the therapy for acute subdural hematoma and hygroma are head up 30 degree and O2 via NRBM 10 lpm. 2. Segmental fracture of the right mandible. In this case, the further action taken before the definitive treatment is done is external fixation to immobilize the fracture fragments. The technique which is used is Arch Bars as the Arch Bars is considered as the gold standard in MMF. 3. Open fracture proximal third dextra tibia fibula grade IIIA. IVFD NS 0.9% 1500cc/ 24 hour administration is performed to restore the balance of body fluids and NaCl. Injection of Cefazolin 1gr intravenously was intended to prevent infection. Injection of Intramuscular Tetagam was given as a prophylactic tetanus infection. For further action, Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) is a surgery that will be done to fix a bone using surgical plates, nails, screws or pins. Under general or local anesthesia, an incision is made over the fractured bone For pain management, the patient was given an injection of Ketorolac 30 mg intravenously, and ranitidine 50 mg iv to compensate a side effect of gastritis. The patient has already been in the intensive care for 7 days. On the 7th day, the GCS score has had an improvement, becoming a score of 325 in result of all the treatments. ORIF for the open fracture right proximal third tibia fibula will be held on day 8. The first day is counted from the first time the patient entered the Emergency Room. References Ahn, J. H., Jun, H.

INTRODUCTION
Shock could arise as a complication due to antepartum hemorrhage in pregnancy. Antepartum hemorrhage includes in most frequent emergencies in obstetric which remains a major cause of maternal dan perinatal death even in the modern era[1]. In Indonesia, antepartum hemorrhage incidence is around 3% of all deliveries. This along with postpartum hemorrhage, comprise the main leading cause (40-60%) of maternal mortality rate in Indonesia[2]. Twenty percent cases of antepartum hemorrhage is caused by abnormally situated (partially or completely) of the placenta in the lower uterine segment known as placenta previa[3,4]. Priyanka Tyagi (2016) summarized the classification of placenta previa into 4 classes as follows: “
Type 1 or Low Lying: Encroaches lower uterine but does not reach internal os. Type 2 or Marginal: Reaches margin of the internal os but does not cover it. Type 3 or Partial: Partially covers the internal os. Type 4 or Total or Central: Completely covers the internal os.”[4] Genovese (2012) stated that “risk factors for the development of placenta previa
include prior cesarean delivery, pregnancy termination, intrauterine surgery, smoking, multi-fetal gestation, increasing parity, maternal age, and the rising rates of Caesarean section” [5]. Prior cesarean delivery and rising rates of cesarean section are also risk factors for the emergence of placenta accreta spectrum, including placenta increta, placenta precreta, and placenta accreta, in women having placenta previa [6]. We present an emergency situation in which the patient had grade III hypovolemic shock following antepartum hemorrhage caused by placenta previa totalis along with placenta accreta spectrum. This case is declared as an emergency based on the assessment using the Early Warning Scoring (EWS) system which implemented in RSUP Dr. Sardjito D.I Yogyakarta. Emergency state will be declared when a patient’s EWS score is>7. In this case, the maternal ward had done some assessment to the patient thus activated Tim Medis Emergensi RSUP Dr. Sardjito. Afterward, Tim Medis Emergensi (TME), the medical emergency team, assisted ob-gyn team in the maternal ward for resuscitation and stabilization of the patient before transported to Operatiekamer (OK).

CASE REPORT
Patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history A 40-year-old pregnant woman came to RSUP Dr. Sardjito with a gravid status G4A1P2. The patient came with a referral from RS Nyi Ageng Serang Kulon Progo, D.I Yogyakarta. This patient was referred with a diagnosis of antepartum hemorrhage with placenta previa and suspected for placenta accreta along with anemia condition. The fetal heartbeat showed a positive result and the fetus was actively moving. The referral status of this patient showed some intervention to stabilize the patient before mobilization such as injection of tranexamic acid 500 mg, oral nifedipine 10 mg, and 500cc intravenous RL for bleeding and hemodynamic control. Injection of ondansetron also given to control the vomiting status of the patient in order to prevent fluid loss. Dexamethasone injection is also given to suppress inflammation reaction so it would not worsen this patient's hemodynamic status. Thereafter, the patient was mobilized to RSUP Dr. Sardjito. This pregnancy was planned to be terminated at 37 weeks of pregnancy. Six hours after arrival in RSUP Dr. Sardjito. This patient was having massive bleeding and losing consciousness. Grade III hypovolemic shock status was stated and the emergency team was deployed to control bleeding before then mobilized to the OK for Sectio Caesarea (SC) and hysterectomy.
Examination, investigation, and diagnosis A physical examination conducted right after the arrival of this patient with the result; blood pressure was 116/75 mmHg, heart rate was 109x/minute, respiration rate was 20x/minute, temperature was 36,3 degrees Celcius and intact amniotic membrane. This patient had no history of diabetes, heart disease, hypersensitivity, or hypertension. This patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 3 previous pregnancies showed that the first pregnancy ended up with abortion without curettage in 2013, the second abortion ended up with abortion with curettage in 2015 and the third pregnancy successfully delivered with cesarean section surgery in 2017. Obstetric examination by using USG showed a single fetus with horizontal presentation, fetus head on the left side, and back of the fetus facing superior part of the uterus. The placenta was shown at the corpus anterior of the uterus, expanding into the inferior part of the uterus
401
and enclosedinternal os. The result of the USG examination also showing that there was an interruption of hyperechoic border between the bladder and the serous part of the uterine.
Figure 1: USG Result on 24th of September, 2019; 10:58 AM
By this result, extra precautions were stated such as risk of injury, risk of infection and the priorities were set to manage safety conditions for maternal and fetus. By this result, the diagnosis of placenta previa totalis with placenta accreta spectrum could be stated. After diagnosed, the patient was moved to the maternal ward for observation

Further examination was conducted in the maternal ward. Consciousness of the patient is good. Eyeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s conjunctiva showed anemia sign by its pale color and there was no sign of icteric condition. Lung expanded symmetrically and heart sound showed regular S1-S2. Inspekulo examination was conducted with the result; smooth vaginal wall, intact cervix, no opening, no bleeding, and positive stolsel. Observation continued with the precaution of bleeding A few hours later, the patient complained about massive bleeding from the vagina. The patient also felt a strong contraction on the lower abdomen. The general condition of the patient looked anxious. Blood pressure was unremarkable, pulse 190x/minute and respiration rate 30x/minute. The patient started to lose consciousness and had hypovolemic shock grade III by antepartum bleeding. The emergency team was called to stabilize the patient's condition.
Treatment The emergency team immediately check for oxygenation and ventilation. Ambu bag is used to maintain oxygen perfusion. Vasoconstrictor was given to limit bleeding without giving an excessive load of stimulant for the heart. Blood transfusion was continued while
403
also giving fluid resuscitation. Re-SC was recommended immediately to save maternal and fetal conditions. After stabilization, this patient was moved immediately to OK for re-SC. Re-SC procedure was given with an indication of placenta previa that made it impossible to deliver pervaginal. Observing the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition with hypovolemic shock, this procedure was necessary to be carried out immediately without a multi-discipline conference as it should for delivery planning. Bleeding control became the first priority during surgery considering the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hemodynamic status. The patient followed a surgical procedure, hysterectomy supracervical, to excise the corpus uteri which started at 17.30 and finished roughly at 20.00 after being resuscitated from the 3rd grade hypovolemic shock. A cefazolin antibiotic was used before the surgical procedure. The incision was done from median line up to three-finger width from the umbilicus. The incision was deepened a layer by layer until parietal peritoneum. From the surgical exploration, the uterus size was normal and the lower segment of uterus seemed to adhere to the urinary bladder. Placenta appeared as penetrating the myometrium in the lower segment of uterus with active bleeding from the placenta. Therefore, it was decided to perform a hysterectomy. A longitudinal incision was done to the corpus uteri. The baby was delivered successfully. The placenta was delivered manually. Inspection was conducted and there was a finding of placenta invasion through myometrium at the lower segment of uterus with adherence to the bladder. Active bleeding found around placental bed which then consulted for hysterectomy for effective bleeding control. Hysterectomy decision then taken followed by adhesiolysis between uterus and bladder. Bleeding control and vessel suturing was taken and then abdomen closing layer by layer with suturing. Surgery finished. During surgery, to confirm patency of bladder after adhesiolysis, urologist took buli test by giving 200 cc NaCl 0,9% and no leakage found. Urinary catheter also replaced by urologist.
Challenges Faced First-hand observation without prior training to emergency in hospital We were studying the case by observing directly and through the medical record of the patient. However, all of the authors are still preclinical medical students that require guidance from the residents at the TME and wards.
404
Maternal previous bleeding and hemodynamic status This patient had suffered a severe bleeding condition along with anemia Hemoglobin status. This condition is very life-threatening. Considering the Hb level of this patient was only 7gr/dL and tension dropping, prolonged of this condition could create organ system failure by lack of oxygen perfusion. The fetal condition of this patient is also at risk of perfusion. Correction was needed to be done in cito. Asses the amount of bleeding on this patient, blood transfusion with target to reach Hb level 10 gr/dL Hypovolemic shock grade III on maternal ward Maternal bleeding condition was getting worse. The blood loss was estimated at around 1500 ml and a lot of blood spilled out on the floor. Blood pressure was no longer measurable. Increasing heart rate and respiration rate indicated the body reactions as a means to compensate for this hemodynamic condition. The patient started to lose consciousness. It had been very critical for the patient. Between stabilization or rapid mobilization, one of them was needed to be taken first. Distance between the maternal ward and the OK is quite far so the patient needed to be prepared enough for mobilization. Bleeding control pre and post-surgery Invasive bleeding control was unable to be done without surgery. Hemodynamic control was the only choice to keep the patient alive. After Re-SC, massive bleeding happened and it then controlled by hysterectomy. Curettage was not an option anymore to treat placenta accreta but it cost infertility to the patient. Multidisciplinary team deployment With this kind of case, normally multiple-disciplinary meeting between doctors needed to be done to decide the procedure of delivery. But in this kind of emergency decision need to be made, the team of emergency from anesthesiology act to control the patient's status and Obsgyn doctor evaluate the next move for delivery. The first priority is the maternal condition even fetal has a high probability to live by 34 weeks of gestation.
405
DISCUSSION
Clinical Procedure Placenta accreta spectrum is an abnormally adherent placenta to the uterine wall thought to be due to the absence of Nitabuchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s layer. The villous tissue is attached directly to the myometrium without intervening decidua. The prevalence of placenta accreta spectrum is 0.17% (95% confidence interval, 0.14-0.19).[7] Placenta previa is another complication in obstetrics that is characterized by abnormal position of placenta that covers the internal ostium of cervix. The term placenta previa totalis describes a complete covering of placenta over the internal ostium of cervix. The prevalence of placenta previa among deliveries is 1.24% (95% confidence interval, 1.12-1.36).[8] One complication placenta previa is common to be found with antepartum hemorrhage. 5 in 1000 pregnancies worldwide are found with placenta previa and 51,6 % of the case followed with antepartum hemorrhage. Bleeding condition could be found started from trimester 2 until trimester 3. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not rare that pregnancies with this condition will end up with preterm cesarean section and followed with hysterectomy. [8] An actively bleeding condition of this pregnancy is potential to be an emergency in obstetric. The goals for bleeding condition are to : 1. Maintain the stability of maternal hemodynamic condition 2. Asses and determine if emergency cesarean section is indicated. Maternal and fetal assessment is the priority in the to-do list. Heart rate, respiration rate, oxygen saturation, and urine output are obligatory to be monitored. In our case, emergency condition was happening at the time pervaginal bleeding started. Before bleeding happened, the patient was given a transfusion to correct Hb level from 7 gr/dL to reach a minimum of 10 gr/dL. Bleeding started to get uncontrolled so then hemodynamic status need to be controlled. Maternal status is the first priority in this case because before the patient is determined for any cesarean section, maternal condition is the key for further steps for this pregnancy. Lack of perfusion could be lethal for the fetus caused by tension dropping on maternal status. [9] Hypovolemic shock following the bleeding condition is called hemorrhagic shock. [10] The patient started to show signs of grade III of the shock as the bleeding continued. Hemodynamic treatment as given on this condition is purposefully only to bring back
406
perfusion status into normal state. Double IV line were inserted and 2 RL were infused along with continued transfusion. This intervention gave sign of improvement by increasing the blood pressure into 80-100 mmHg of systolic pressure.
Table 2: Grading of hemorrhagic shock.[11]Data from: Mutschler A, Nienaber U, Brockamp T, et al. A critical reappraisal of the ATLS classification of hypovolaemic shock: does it really reflectclinical reality? Resuscitation 2013,84:309â&#x20AC;&#x201C;313.
Blood transfusion on a patient need to be directed by the losing volume of the blood over time and hemodynamic parameter such as blood pressure, maternal and fetal heart rate and, hemoglobin. Balance between blood transfusion and fluid infusion is very important to prevent any hemodilution that could impair or even worsen oxygen perfusion. Ambu bag is also used to support ventilation. After stabilization, the patient needs to be checked for any indication of cesarean delivery. Those indication of cesarean delivery are: 1. Active labor 2. Fetal heart rate non-responsive to resuscitation 3. Severe and significant bleeding which causing maternal hemodynamic status cannot be achieved and maintained
407
4. 34 weeks of gestation with significant bleeding. By the assessment, this patient status fulfills severe and significant bleeding for 34 weeks of gestation even though hemodynamic status has achieved after resuscitation. This indication leads to emergency Re-SC. Cesarean section is always indicated for placenta previa with a viable fetus. Surgeon should try to avoid the placenta when entering the uterus. If the placenta is incised it could cause such a hemorrhage from fetal vessels that could end up with neonatal anemia.[9] The most indication for hysterectomy procedure is massive uterine hemorrhage that unable to be controlled with conservative treatment. This kind of hemorrhage accounts for about 30-50% cause of peripartum hysterectomy.[12]
Early Warning System The maternal mortality rate in Indonesia showed 307 deaths over 100.000 deliveries based on Survei Antar Sensus (SUPAS), inter-census survey, in 2015. [13] If we compared this number to beforehand, Indonesia had shown quite a remarkable effort reducing its number from 359 in 2012[14] to 307 in 2015. However, Indonesia also still has a long way to reach MDG 2015â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s target which is 110 deaths over 100.000 deliveries.
[13]
Based upon this,
implementing the Early Warning System especially in Obstetric field holds an important role. RSUP Dr. Sardjito has implemented this Early Warning System since 2015. Early warning system is a system or regulation to monitor patient conditionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deterioration and assure the resuscitation is performed effectively for the emergency patient including a cardiac arrest incidence[d]. Early warning system which is implemented in RSUP Dr. Sardjito is integrated with a code for rapid response system for emergency incidence and cardiac arrest termed code blue. This system along with code blue, cover all areas of the hospital for 24 hours a week except for areas which already have optimal resuscitation system such as intensive care unit and emergency ward[d]. Early warning system is also equipped with early warning scoring (EWS). Early warning scoring is an instrument developed to anticipate for deterioration of patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition by measuring the status of the patient, that consists of respiration rate, O2 saturation, usage of breathing aid, body temperature, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, consciousness, pain, discharge/lochia, and proteinuria. Each of the statuses has its range and scores that sums up to the final score. If the score is 7 or higher, the activation of
408
code blue is initiated. A team composed of an anesthesiology resident and a trained nurse from the TME is sent to the location. Thus, an efficient medical resuscitation can be performed, assisting the wardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s physician on duty and patient specialist doctors. Furthermore, early warning scoring helps in determining patients who require urgent medical care or only minor medical care and aiming in determining further management of the patient whether the patient should stay in the ward with a particular patient specialist doctor or transferred to high care unit, intensive care unit or into palliative care. Emergency cases could arise anytime anywhere in the hospital, not only affecting the patient but also the family of the patient, visitors or the medical staffs. Therefore, it would be best if every hospital could implement early warning system as early detection and rapid response system to any medical emergency[e]. Early warning system in RSUP Dr. Sardjito is easy to understand because of the simple scoring sheet and accessible from smartphone which has internet connection, so any medical doctors or trained people could utilize and and estimating additional management before patient condition deteriorate. This early warning system also has a broad spectrum covering 3 types of patient from adults, children, and maternal. This way, the analysis will be more comprehensive and adjusting with the patient. In this clinical case presentation, our main topic is emergency in obstetric field therefore the use of early warning scoring for obstetric would be useful. Here we present the Obstetric Early Warning Scoring system guide and scoring sheet which has been published in the form of poster.

Figure 2: RSUP Dr. Sardjito Early Warning Scoring (EWS) system guide poster. [15] (a) Obstetric Patient EWS Guide (b) Scoring Sheet for Obstetric EWS
Based on Modified Early Obstetric Warning Scoring (MEOWS), the patient scored 17 points (with some parameters unmeasured) that indicated the urgent response of TME. The MEOWS score was as follows: Consciousness: Unresponsive, scored 3 BP: unmeasured HR: 190 beats per minute, scored 3 RR: 30 breaths per minute, scored 3 SpO2: unmeasured Respiratory aid: yes, scored 2 Pain: positive, scored 3 Discharge: bleeding through the vagina, scored 3 Body temperature: unmeasured
410
Lesson Learnt In this case, we learned that a lot of factors could affect the pregnancy of a mother. Placenta accreta spectrum and placenta previa is a form of abnormal placentation result in pregnancy. Both conditions could coexist at the same time as this case and increase the risk of hemorrhage. From the first time this patient diagnosed with abnormal placentation, normal pervaginal delivery could not be conducted. Then extra precaution is given to encounter lifethreatening risk not only hemorrhage but also infection and emergency preterm delivery. Antepartum hemorrhage could happen without any sign that leads into it. By our case, we found that after arrival in RSUP Dr. Sardjito and following maternal and fetal safety management had been done. This patient already had a stable state without any sign of bleeding. Her blood pressure was normal. The only abnormal sign was low Hb level and signs of anemia. A few hours later we found that the patient was having a massive hemorrhage accompanied by hypovolemic shock while the blood pressure was dropping. Time and emergency management are very important in a life-threatening condition. Priorities need to be set before doing any intervention to the patient. Existence of teams that could manage the emergency situation is even more important. Tim Medis Emergensi, RSUP Dr. Sardjitoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emergency team, and also the ob-gyn team handled this life-threatening scenario. In this case, in a hypovolemicshock condition, this patient required to be moved to the OK for delivery. Stabilization such as fluid resuscitation before mobilization is the key to support the life condition of the patient. Surgery planning involves a very complex process and prediction. Emergency status of the patient on the maternal ward before was only Re-SC emergency. But at the OK, it turned out that further intervention, in this case, hysterectomy needed to be done for bleeding control. Explanation, informed consent, and preparation were done on-the-spot. Emergency needs should be prioritized above that patient autonomy even though consent was given by the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband.
411
CONCLUSION Although placenta previa is acommon placental abnormality, its occurrence often followed by antepartum hemorrhage which could be life-threatening. The presence of recurrence antepartum hemorrhage in placenta previa should be addressed and controlled. Planned delivery to stop the deterioration of the patient caused by recurrent bleeding should be done. Constant monitoring for any signs of worsening to rapidly identify emergency provides a room to take immediate action before the condition of the patient get any worse. The existence of a medical emergency team that stands by for any emergency happened in wards, that focuses on activation of hospital code blue and resuscitation, and does not included in other health services, namely TME helps in an emergency situation such as massive antepartum hemorrhage in a similar way to the case we presented.

1. Introduction Bleeding after childbirth is excessive bleeding after the birth of a baby. This condition is the leading cause of maternal death. About 1 to 5 percent of women have postpartum hemorrhage and generally more on Caesarean section. Postpartum bleeding usually occurs after the placenta has been removed. Get back blood after the birth of a single baby through vaginal delivery is about 500 ml (or about half a liter). When undergoing a Caesarean section, you will bleed about 1000 ml (or about one liter). Postpartum bleeding occurs right after delivery, but can also occur later. There are many things that cause postpartum bleeding. To remember, it's known as "4 Tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s" as tone, tissue, trauma, and thrombosis. The most common cause is uterine atony, the failure of myometrial muscle fibers to contract after the birth of a fetus. This condition can cause severe bleeding and hypovolemic shock. Poor myometrial contractions can result from fatigue due to prolonged labor or rapid labor, especially if stimulated. The purpose of this paper is to show a real example of a case of postpartum bleeding, namely uterine atony, and to promote one method to be added in the guidelines for management of uterine atony in Indonesia. 2. Patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s History A pregnant woman with 34 weeks gestation comes to the emergency obstetric care because she was referred. The patient arrived at 4:21 a.m. From the previous hospital, the patient was declared to have placenta previa. The patient and husband claimed that they had bleeding a little from last night. However, there is no heartburn and pain. When the patient arrives, there is already a heartburn. The patient and husband forget the last menstruation period. The patient has a history of obstetrics, giving birth 1 time normally. Female sex, with birth weight is 2800 grams, with age now is 8 years. The results of the examination showed that the patient's blood pressure was 130/80 mmHg. Systematic examination (head to toe) within normal limits. Inspection of internal organs, no opening was found, but fluorine was found. From the history and physical examination, the patient's diagnosis was G3P1A1 Pregnant 34 weeks intra-uterine fetus, single and alive with a history of antepartum hemorrhage and contractions. Management given in the emergency room is tocolytic, hypobach 2 x 1, nifedipine when blood pressure rises. An ultrasound and proteinuria check are planned. The same day an ultrasound was performed. The following results are obtained. 1) Single fetal intrauterine life, head presentation, 2) left back, 3) fetal heart rate (+), 4) Sufficient ICA, 5) Total placenta covering ostium uteri internum, 6) BPD 8.6 ~ 34 + 6 weeks, 7) HC 31.4 ~ 35 + 2 weeks, 8) AC 29.3 ~ 33 + 2 weeks, 9) FL 6.5 ~ 34 weeks, 10) estimated fetal weight 2291 grams (+/- 334 grams), 11) Estimated parturition is January 1, 2019, 12) G3P1A1 is pregnant 34 + 2 weeks with antepartum hemorrhage.

Figure 1. Ultrasound results
On the second day the patient was in the hospital, bleeding in the birth canal was reduced. There are no significant complaints. Physical examination results are also within normal limits. Likewise on the third day. Patients only complain of nausea and are given ondancetron when needed. At 22:15 p.m the patient suddenly complained of nausea, vomiting, and heartburn. Patients were given ranitidine and ondancetron from the attending physician. On the third day, at 02:35 a.m, the patient complained of heartburn and bleeding from the vagina. At 03.00 a.m, patients were subject to close observation of the fetal heart rate and bleeding from the obgyn physician on guard. At 05.00 a.m, a stool or blood clot comes out of the vagina, but the general condition of the patient is still quite good. At 06.00 a.m a cardiotocography results was conducted, the results were still good. At 08.00 a.m complaints of pain have been reduced. At 09.30 a.m the patient experienced abdominal pain, but accompanied by chills. It was decided to do cesarean section cito. After surgery, the baby is born at 11:30 a.m with male sex, Apgar score 0, blooding (+), and stool cell (+). When a baby is born, the baby does not cry spontaneously, there is no movement. The baby looks blue and stiff. Suction is done on the baby's mouth and nose, which comes out is blood. Neonates resuscitation was performed, but the result was negative.
418
3. Examination and Investigation At the initial examination when the patient first came, there were no signs of emergencies, other than placenta previa that had indeed been diagnosed from the hospital before the patient arrived. 4.
Diagnosis Based on anamnesis from patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s illness can be diagnosed pre operatively. Pre-operative diagnosis is G3P1A1 + anemia + antepartum hemorrhagic. While, post-operative diagnosis is P2A1 premature intrauterine fetal death (IUFD) + placental abruption + uterine atony 5. Treatment and Course The diagnosis is made after caesarean section surgery. When it is found that the patient has uterine atony, drugs have been given to make the uterus contract. However, the patient's uterus also does not work as expected. The patient operator finally performed a subtotalis hysterectomy 6. Challenge Faced Atony uteri is an emergency condition that must be dealt with immediately. Late conditions can cause the patient to experience hypovolemic shock. This condition must be diagnosed and treated quickly. However, it is also necessary to pay attention to the parity of the patient and the patient's family. Woe if the patient does not have children or still wants to have children, but the patient's uterus is forced to do a hysterectomy, because it does not respond to the drugs that have been given. Not just drugs, but also compression that has been done, both internal and external.
419
Figure 2. Uterine atony management algorithm in Indonesia
7. Recommendations After administration of drugs and compression, but to no avail. Based on the algorithm used in Indonesia, surgery must be carried out. Before that is done, there is one more way, namely the use of tamponade balloons. This is the earliest method of achieving the effect of tamponade to control postpartum bleeding. This method makes the uterus "work" in the case of uterine atony. Some previous studies show that this method is quite effective. Study conducted by Timor-Tritsch, IE., et al (2016), titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;A new minimally invasive treatment for cesarean scar pregnancy and cervical pregnancy.â&#x20AC;? There were 3 spontaneous pregnancy and 7 cesarean sections.The average use of balloons is for 3 days. Tampon balloons can work successfully, minimally invasive and well-tolerated single treatment for cervical pregnancy and cesarean scar pregnancy. This simple treatment method has 4 main advantages: it effectively stops embryonic
420
cardiac activity, prevents bleeding complications, does not require any additional invasive therapies, and is familiar to obstetricians-gynecologists who use the same cervical ripening catheters for labor induction. Its wider application, however, has to be validated on a larger patient population. Another study with method done by Herrick, Tara., et al (2017). Entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;A low-cost uterine balloon tamponade for management of postpartum hemorrhage: modeling the potential impact on maternal mortality and morbidity in sub-Saharan Africaâ&#x20AC;? shows that the use of balloon tamponade in clinics and hospitals can save 6547 lives (11% reduce maternal mortality), avoid 10,823 operations, and prevent severe anemia in 634 cases in Sub-Saharan Africa. Proven not if balloon tamponade costs a lot. A low-cost balloon tamponade has a strong potential to save lives and reduce morbidity. It can also potentially reduce costly downstream interventions for women who give birth in a health care facility. This technology may be especially useful for meeting global targets for reducing maternal mortality as identified in Sustainable Development Goal 3. se it is easy. Insert a rubber or silicon balloon into the uterine cavity and inflate the balloon with saline. There are so many variations of balloon tampons. In order of costs are the SengstakenBlakemore tube, the Bakri balloon, the Rusch balloon, Foley catheters and the condom catheter balloon.

Table 1. Baloon tampon device
423
Although there are so many variations of balloons that can produce a tampon effect, they are not the same design. All of these balloons have differences in the shape of the balloon, volume, and in terms of drainage of the uterine cavity. The shape of the balloon is not only different from one another, but also different shapes after being filled with water. Volume in producing tampon effects also differs from each literature. At present, only the Bakri Balloon is designed to treat postpartum bleeding. For other balloons, it can be used alone or used in combination with interventions, such as internal iliac artery ligase and B-lynch suture. Not only when there is expectation postpartum, but it can be used
424
as prophylaxis in women who do have a high risk for experiencing postpartum bleeding. For example Rusch bal-loon. There is no definite hirearki about the time from the use of balloon tampons. Several studies have shown, if used immediately after vaginal birth, this will prevent the need for laparotomy. If it fails, it will not result in a very significant failure result, because it is easy to insert a tampon balloon. In addition, it will reduce the amount of bleeding while preparing for laparotomy surgery. If used earlier, there will be time for resuscitation in patients, such as blood type tests and the arrival of obstetricians. A study shows, the earlier a hysterectomy is performed, it will reduce the amount of blood that comes out, also reduces maternal mortality. In other words, the earlier use of tampon balloons will reduce maternal morbidity due to lack of blood. There are so many variations of balloon tampons (Table 1). There needs to be further assessment from the obstetrician regarding what type of balloon will be used, also the right time to use a tampon balloon. It is important to revise the guidelines for the management of postpartum bleeding in Indonesia. The use of balloon tampons can be used by general practitioners. Working according to guidelines will save the general practitioner from lawsuits. Also, it saves the hope of patients having more offspring.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;A CASE REPORT: DIRECT HYPERBILIRUBINEMIA IN 28-YEAR-OLD PATIENT WITH INTRAUTERINE FETAL DEATHâ&#x20AC;? Kristian Kenji K., Shafa Maulida, Wiranigitasari & Yusniya F. W. L. Faculty of Medicine, University of Brawijaya ABSTRACT A 28-year-old woman was referred to Saiful Anwar Hospital with a decreased of consciousness as the chief complaint. The decrease of consciousness has started since postpartum H1, which was one day before the admission at Saiful Anwar Hospital. She reportedly has a history of miscarriages in the first three months of pregnancy 11 years ago and a history of aterm labor 6 years ago. This case faced some challenges. The first challenge is the low rate of education in a rural community. The other challenge is due to incomplete of the health facility. Treatment of AFLP is by a combination of prompt delivery of the fetus, regardless of the gestational age and also maternal stabilization. Early administration of appropriate blood components, such as fresh frozen plasma, cryoprecipitate, RBCs, and platelets, may be needed. Recently, there is no standardized approach to diagnose this case, but based on the characteristic that is found may be used for diagnosis when clinical suspicion is present. After the diagnose is approached, the delivery of the fetus is paramount and the treatment is largely supportive care. Key Findings: Acute Fatty Liver Of Pregnancy, pregnancy, early diagnosis.

INTRODUCTION Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP), also known as “Acute yellow atrophy of the liver” is a rare condition that occurs in approximately one in 7,000 to one in 16,000 pregnancies. AFLP typically occurs in the third trimester. on rare occasions, AFLP presents as early as 22 weeks of gestation (2). However, it is often fatal to both mother and fetus that it is considered as a life-threatening condition since it is described as an idiopathic disorder with an extremely high percentage (10-85%) in mortality (7). There are no specific symptoms and no reliable examinations for AFLP, making an early diagnosis difficult (6). AFLP is characterized as a sudden onset of liver failure due to hepatic microvesicular steatosis. the mortality for both mother and neonate is extremely high but with early diagnosis and prompt treatment, outcomes and survival have improved. Multiple trauma usually presents challenging clinical scenarios with musculoskeletal injuries that are so this case needs immediate management. PATIENT’S HISTORY A 28-year-old woman was referred from a peripheral hospital with the chief complaint in decreased consciousness since postpartum H1 with no seizure. The day before administration, the woman gives birth during her ride to the Public Health Centre and had a miscarriage. The patient has a history of nausea, vomiting and positive icteric for 5 days before the admission. She had no complaints of defecation but the urination had decreased. The patient had a general appearance of severe ill and GCS number of 1-2-2, her pulse rate was 84 per minute and her respiratory rate was 24 per minute. She had icterus, pedal edema, and asymmetric movement of the lungs. Investigation revealed hemoglobin of 7,4 g/dl and white blood cells of 19,530/micro liter. Her liver function tests revealed aspartate aminotransferase 221 IU/l, alanine aminotransferase 159 IU/l, albumin 2,65 g/dL, total bilirubin 17,72 g/dL, direct bilirubin 14,52 mg/dL, indirect bilirubin 3,2 mg/dL, ureum 87,1 mg/dL, creatinine 3,59 mg/dL, and LDH 1528 U/L.The patient had jaundice, leukocytosis, an increase in AST and ALT, increased bilirubin, hypoalbuminemia, a decrease in fibrinogen, increase in D-dimer, azotemia, increase of K, decrease of Na and metabolic acidosis. A differential of AFLP and HELLP syndrome was made, and the miscarriage was suspected to be caused by Acute Fatty Liver of Pregnancy. INVESTIGATIONS AND EXAMINATION Based on physical examination, her heart rate (84 beats/minute) and respiration rate (24 times/minute) were higher than the normal limit. Her GCS scores were 1-2-2. Her vital sign was notable for a temperature of 36°C, her heart rate of 84 beats/minute, blood pressure of 116/56 mmHg, respiratory rate of 24. A lung examination was notable for asymmetric movement with Rh (-) and Ves (+). From laboratory examination, we revealed that the patient had normochromic normocytic anemia, leukocytosis, AST ↑↑, ALT ↑↑, Increased Bil TDI, Bil direct > Bil Indirect, ALP ↑, LDH ↑↑, FH ↑,
429
azotemia, metabolic acidosis, Na â&#x2020;&#x201C;, K â&#x2020;&#x2018;. Urinary lysozyme: proteinuria (2+), nitrite (+), Leukocyte Esterase (LE) trace, blood (3+) and microscopic RBC predominantly dysmorphic.
Fig. 1 Blood serum enzyme test. From these data with clinical finding we conclude: Acute Fatty Liver Of Pregnancy (AFLP)
DIAGNOSIS Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) is an uncommon but potentially fatal complication that occurs in the third trimester or early postpartum period to both the mother and the fetus, and one that can often recur in future pregnancies. AFLP is characterized by microvesicular fatty infiltration of hepatocytes without any inflammation or necrosis (5). Decreased levels of antithrombin and fibrinogen accompanied by laboratory evidence of DIC are present in most patients (11). Because AFLP is a rare disorder with significant maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality and with nonspecific clinical and laboratory findings, each patient with nausea, vomiting, malaise, and nonspecific symptoms in the third trimester of pregnancy should have a complete biochemical and hematologic workup.
TREATMENT AND COURSE Treatment of AFLP is by a combination of prompt delivery of the fetus, regardless of the gestational age and also maternal stabilization. Early administration of appropriate blood components, such as fresh frozen plasma, cryoprecipitate, RBCs, and platelets, may be needed (4). In this case, there is no standardized approach to diagnose this case, however, based on characteristics discovered from laboratory results, imaging, biopsy, and utilizing tools such as the Swansea criteria may be beneficial toward diagnosis while clinical suspicion is present. Following the diagnosis, the
430
delivery of the fetus is paramount. Furthermore, if the patient's liver is fulminant due to AFLP, the frequency of liver recovers to normal is remarkably low. The aforementioned emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis (2). Toward patients with immediate postpartum state, acute liver failure besides encephalopathy, disseminated intravascular coagulation, acute renal failure, lastly gastrointestinal bleeding are the frequent life-threatening conditions linked with AFLP (2). The case's management system is based on 3 components, which are government, health facilities, and public community. The first component is the government. Parts of the government's programs concerning the reduction of maternal and child mortality are Badan Operasional Kesehatan (Health Operational Assistance) that has been launched by the Ministry of Health of Republic Indonesia to each Puskesmas (Public Health Center) since 2010 that is focused on preventive and promotive actions and Program Prencanaan Persalinan dan Pencegahan Komplikasi/P4K (Birth Delivery Planning and Complication Prevention). These programs will not operate properly without assistance from the other components. The second component is the health facilities. The quality and the number of health facilities should be enhanced continuously. In this case, both the child and mother were deceased because of the shortage of ventilator quantity in the ICU room. The treatment that should have been done immediately could not be done. The growth of the health quality should be done not only by class A medical facilities, but all classes of medical facilities too. Moreover, the proper communication within each medical specialist is required too. For instance, the practice of Telemedicine will make the patient's report addressed promptly and effectively that will encourage the doctors to determine the proper therapy. The third element is the public community. Reliable knowledge will make each group becomes more aware of their health that affects their medical check-up frequency during pregnancies.
CHALLENGES FACED This case faced some challenges. The first challenge is the low rate of education in a rural community, causing unawareness of their state of health, making them less likely to check on their health condition, and only came when the conditions had worsened to the state of it being an emergency. The other challenge is due to incomplete of a health facility. Based on this case, this patient dies due to lack of ventilator in ICU, on the other side, the hospital itself is facing a problem coping with the high number of emergency patients administered.
431
DISCUSSION
Fig. 2 Pathogenesis of acute fatty liver of pregnancy (data are from Goel A, et al) Carbohydrate is the main source of living things. However, during the period of starvation, the metabolism track of carbohydrates will switch to lipid metabolism for the purposes of fulfilling the needs for energy. In the late period of pregnancy, the dietary intake of the mother is reduced while the energy expenditure increased due to the laboring process. On the other hand, it is also possible that the mother redirect dietary carbohydrates to enhance fetal nutrition. This condition leads to the diversion of the carbohydrates metabolism track to the lipid metabolism track. Thus, if the pregnant mother has some defect in metabolizing or utilizing her fat stores, she can be expected to become energy-deficient in late pregnancy. Acute Fatty Liver of Pregnancy has a characteristic of mitochondrial dysfunction in the liver that might lead to energy deficiency since mitochondrion is known as the power generator of the cell and the sites of fatty acid oxidation to produce ATP. The dysfunction itself is caused by the change of mitochondrial structure due to microvesicular steatosis. As the mitochondrial dysfunction widens in the liver, it may lead to liver failure known as mitochondrial hepatopathy. AFLP is a rare but catastrophic illness that occurs approximately one in 7,000 to one in 16,000 pregnancies. Although these cases now have been reduced to 12.5% compared with the early years of the 1980s (85%), it should still be aroused considerable attention that will cause high maternal mortality with severe complications. Early diagnosis and proper treatment are the cornerstones to decrease the mortality of AFLP. Ziki et al (9) reported that an 18â&#x20AC;&#x2030;year patient, in her first pregnancy at
432
35 weeks gestation has died 3 days after admission and the diagnosis was confirmed on post-mortem and histology. Vora et al (10) A 24-year-old female at 34-week gestation, presented with malaise, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, and absent fetal movements. A clinical diagnosis of acute fatty liver of pregnancy was made. Although early cesarean section was performed, postoperative course was complicated by acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) sepsis, and continuing coagulopathy. Supportive management in an intensive care unit resulted in a successful outcome. A clinical diagnosis of acute fatty liver of pregnancy was made on the 3rd day post-delivery. In our case the patient’s baby experience IUFD and several days later, the mother died too. CONCLUSION/RECOMMENDATIONS •
Medical practitioners, specifically doctors, should be able to encourage the patient to do general medical checkups such as blood serum test routinely, especially if the patient is gestating and if there is any clinical suspicion.
•
Communication between medical facilities should be improved to achieve better patient management.
•
Telemedicine utilization could be helpful to track patient's medical record so that the diagnosis could be easily determined
•
AFLP is a rare, life-threatening complication of the third trimester, the clinical presentation of AFLP is very variable and nonspecific. Immediate suspicion of the diagnosis, appropriate investigations, maximum supportive care and urgent initiation of therapy in an ICU should be highlighted to prevent poor outcomes

ABSTRACT Patient’s History: A 6-year-old Indonesian girl was treated in Saiful Anwar General Hospital (SAGH) Malang with complaints of seizure followed by loss of consciousness. Episodes of seizure was observed at the referral hospital, Jombang General Hospital (JGH). Immediate treatment and management was given to the patient’s emergency condition. Challenges: It is known that patient lives in a broken household with unclear family history due her parents were abandoning her thus only being taken care of with her aunt and uncle who lives under poverty. Morever, patients were diagnosed by HIV lately with poor prognosis. Key Findings : The patient is diagnosed with stage 4 HIV at 5 years old with tuberculosis meningoencephalitis and cerebral toxoplasmosis. On December 2018, patient shows very low CD4+ T cells count (18 cells/μL) and abnormally high levels of both toxoplasma IgG and IgM. Patient was loss of conciousness, paralysis of left abducens nerve, right hemi-paralysis, and seizure. Treatment : The patient is brought to JGH outpatient department for regular check up on her treatment. The patient is treated with oral anti-tuberculosis (OAT), anti-retroviral (ARV) and therapy for toxoplasmosis. For over 6 months of observation, the patient takes her OAT, ARV and toxoplasmosis medication regularly and accordingly without showing any signs or symptoms regarding side effects of her medication. The patient is able to return to her daily life and continue her studies in the elementary school on Juny 2019. Neurologic improvement and increase in immune system, marked by returning physiological function and increase in CD4 count (>200 cells/µl), can be seen after 6 months of therapy.

A Case Report: Status Epilecticus and Loss of Consciousness in a Child with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Suffering From Tuberculosis Meningoencephalitis and Cerebral Toxoplasmosis Co-Infection
Introduction Since being first discovered in 1982 by Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the distribution of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) has reached a global scale. According to World Health Organization (WHO), about 75 million people have been infected by HIV and 32 million of them died. Based on a study conducted by WHO in the South-East Asia region, out of the 110.000 children (ages 0-14 years old) suffering from HIV infection and only 44.400 receive treatment (WHO, 2017). It is known that 90% of pediatric HIV is caused by mother to child transmission. The chances of the virus being transmitted from the mother to infant is 5-20% by trans-placental means, 10-20% during childbirth and 5-20% during breastfeeding. Multiple clinical manifestations which appears are in the form of opportunistic infections such as Tuberculosis, fungal infections, persistent diarrhea caused by bacteria, pneumonia, invasive and uncommon parasitic infection, uncommon viral infections, and even sepsis (Muktiarti, 2014). Toxoplasmosis is a protozoa infection. It is the most often cause of cerebral lesions in HIV patients. Cerebral toxoplasmosis is a very lethal opportunistic infection if not diagnosed and treated as soon as possible since it can cause meningoencephalitis, cerebrospinal fluid disorder, hydrocephalus, microcephaly, chorioretinitis, seizures and deafness (Soedarmo et al, 2015). Cerebral toxoplasmosis produces multiple lesions, commonly located in the basal ganglia, cerebral cortex, brainstem and cerebellum. Diagnosis of toxoplasmosis can be confirmed by cranial CT scan or MRI, showing pathognomonic sign in the form of eccentric target sign Ěś ring formed lesion with calcification in its borders and edematous areas surrounding the lesion (MRI) (Kumar et al, 2010). Tuberculosis is the leading cause of death for patients infected by HIV. In the case of terminal stage HIV, the focus of infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis moves hematogenously to other organs, hence known as extra-pulmonary Tuberculosis. This condition occurs when the CD4+ count reaches a level below 200 cells/Âľl. One of the forms of extra-pulmonary Tuberculosis which involves the brain is meningoencephalitis Tuberculosis. Based on research in the United States of America, the number of death of HIV patients with meningoencephalitis Tuberculosis is very high, reaching 67% of all cases. This shows its lethality as the life expectancy of HIV patients with meningoencephalitis Tuberculosis on treatment is only 9 months (Vinnan et al, 2009).

From the age of 2 months, the patient was hospitalized frequently in Mojowarno Hospital with similar chief complaints diarrhea, cough, cold, apnoea, fever and pus-filled wounds on the head. However, the patient’s aunt does not know the diagnosis of the disease. At that time period, the patient is hospitalized at least once a month. After reaching 2-years-old, the patient rarely suffers from any sickness and has never been hospitalized until December 2018. The patient is raised by her aunt, a medical nurse on duty, ever since the patient was 2-months-old. Wary of her niece’s condition, the aunt initiated HIV screening to be done in JGH. The result came out to be HIV positive. However, since there were no complaints and with the patient’s condition improving (appears healthy, no delay in growth and development), no further treatment was taken. It is known that the patient lives in a broken household. The biological father of the patient died of unknown causes when the patient was 4-months-old and the biological mother ran away from home and her condition is not known.

The history of pregnancy is unknown because the patient was cared for by the aunt and uncle of the patient since the age of 2 months. During pregnancy, the patient's mother and father lived in Kalimantan. The patient is born in a midwife’s private practice with a birth weight of 3400 grams, born spontaneously, adequate gestational age and spontaneous crying. Body length and head circumference during birth are unknown. The patient drinks formula milk from birth. Formula milk is given every ± 2-3 hours, with a volume of 40-50 cc. After being given milk the patient looks full and fell asleep. The patient uses soy milk because she was declared to be allergic to cow's milk at the age of 1 month by doctors in Kalimantan. According to the foster parents of the patient, she does not drink breast milk because the patient's mother does not want to breastfeed. Since the age of 6-12 months, the patient consumes milk porridge, twice a day and each portion is always finished. At the age of 10-12 months the patient is given soft rice mixture with a frequency of 2 times a day with each serving finished. One serving of
439
the mixture contains rice with spinach / cassava leaves / carrot and chicken or egg. Since the age of 1 year the patient eats family food 2-3 times / day, with consumption of vegetables accompanied by tempeh or tofu and fruit is sometimes given in the form of papaya fruit. Side dishes of fish or meat are sometimes given 1-2 times / month if there is money. At present, the appetite of the patient according to her aunt is well and eats adequately. The patient’s immunization record according to the foster parents is good and can be seen in the table below

In Jombang General Hospital, efforts to treat the patient’s condition was done using antibiotics and anticonvulsants. The patient’s condition did not improve and she was referred to SaifulAnwar General Hospital with status epilepticus followed by loss of consciousness as the main issue. Upon arriving in the SAGH Emergency department, a quick physical examination was done and immediate treatment was given. The treatment consists of phenytoin (20mg x patient’s body weight in Kg) given intravenously for 30 minutes, followed by a prescription of phenytoin (8mg x
440
patient’s body weight in Kg) divided into 3 doses to be given daily and a dose of diazepam (0.3mg x patient’s body weight in Kg) for every episode of seizure. After the seizure was handled, further workup was requested in the form of compelete blood count, CT scan, lumbar punction, CD4 count and rapid test HIV. Figure 2.6 Laboratory findings Parameter

Meningoencephalitis Tuberculosis 3. Toxoplasma Cerebral 4. Electrolite Imbalance et causa a. Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion b. Cerebral Salt Wasting Discussion In this case, an eight year old girl, weighing 18 kilograms, came with status epilecticus accompanied with consciousness disorder as the main complaint. Before coming to Saiful Anwar General Hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (SAGH) Department of Emergency, patient has experienced seizure episode 4 times. The duration of each seizure episode goes for approximately 5 minutes and after the episode concludes, the patient goes lethargic and hard to wake up with excessive sleeping. Moreover, it is known from the aunt of the patient that the patient has been experiencing prolonged headaches before being admitted to SAGHâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department of Emergency. In consciousness check using the Glasgow Coma Scale method, we found these results; 3 for eye response, 5 for motor response, 4 for verbal response, totaling 12 points (moderate). Adding to the list of complaints, the patient also experiences diarrhea, projectile vomiting, and refuses to eat. Through this case, the patient is being suspected of central nervous system disorders, based on the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s complaint of headaches accompanied with projectile vomiting.
447
During the management of the patient in SAGH’s Department of Emergency, the physician conducts anamnesis with the patient’s aunt and found out that the patient is frequently sick during 2 years of age with various complaints, being, diarrhea, cold, apnea, fever, and lacerations with pus appearance on the head region. Other findings shown that every visit that the patient took to the hospital is presented the same complaints. Through this condition, the physician suspects HIV as an underlying cause of the symptoms and complaints, knowing this, SAGH’s Department of Emergency consults this case to the Department of Paediatrics for the patient to undergo HIV testing. Based on the results of the tests done by the Department of Paediatrics, it is now a fact that the patient has HIV. Based on that finding, SAGH’s Department of Emergency suggests for the patient to undergo CT scan, complete blood tests, lumbar puncture, and chest X-ray. After the lab results came out, readings and interpretation of the results were conducted. From the results of the CT scan, it is found that there is a solid lesion with the dimensions of 0,8x0,8x0,8 centimeters in the left cerebellum with minimal perifocal edema. Other than the finding of a solid lesion, a hyperdense appearance on the basis cranii of the patient is found. Based on the X-ray results, there is no appearance of TB lesions on the patients lungs. According to the blood tests, it is found that there is an increase in monocyte cell count to 7.8%, a decrease in sodium and chloride levels. Based on the CSF analysis, there is an increase in protein, a decrease in glucose levels, accompanied with the increase in LDH levels. Mononuclear cells are found within the CSF as much as 92%. Based on the complaints and the laboratory examinations, the patient is suspected as having a TB meningoencephalitis. Encephalitis is characterized by a condition with a decrease in consciousness, generalized seizure, and episodes of headaches. The degree of encephalitis varies, and it is know that it can undergo progressivity during a few months, causing death. Especially in immunocompromised patients, such as patients with HIV, the manifestations of encephalitis will undergo progressivity until 8 weeks. Using lab interpretations, encephalitis is described by pleocytosis of mononuclear cells, an increase on protein levels, and normal or low glucose levels in CSF post lumbar puncture (Avindra, 2003). Based on the classification of tuberculosis itself, it is known that meningoencephalitis TB is the most severe and life threatening. Some of the most usually encountered complaints on patients experiencing meningoencephalitis TB are headaches, neck rigidity, accompanied with projectile vomiting as the effects of intracranial processes. Those intracranial processes results ranging in neurological deficits to coma. In this case, the patient complained about episodic seizures accompanied with lethargy, excessive sleeping, and difficulty in being woken up from sleep after the episode subsides. The decrease in consciousness is caused by brain damage, affecting the consciousness of the patient (Yasar, 2011).
448
Based on the pathogenesis of meningoencephalitis TB, the initial focus of infection originates first from the lungs. Meningoencephalitis TB is a hematogenous spread of lung TB where it causes disorders in the brain function. As its physiological functions dictate, consciousness is being affected by 2 important functions, which is the brain cortex and the function of ARAS (Ascending Reticular Activating System) that is always activated as a standby mode. Brain disorders caused by meningoencephalitis TB impacts the functions of the brain cortex and the ARAS systems. Those problems results in consciousness disorders on a person (Rock, 2008). Based on this case, it is reported that there is episodic seizures with decreased consciousness. This could be concluded as the manifestations of brain disorders caused by meningoencephalitis TB as in previous discussion. The damage done by meningoencephalitis TB could also be caused by other infections targeting the CNS, especially the brain, one of them being toxoplasmosis. In this very case, the patient is experiencing both meningoencephalitis TB and cerebral toxoplasmosis. Toxoplasma Cerebral Toxoplasmosis is the commonest central nervous system findings on HIV patients thus becoming one of its complications. Toxoplasmosis is caused by Toxoplasma gondii, an intracellular obligate parasite, which is able to cause severe opportunistic infection on HIV patients. In an immunocompromised condition, toxoplasma will reactivate when the CD4 count is under 200 cells/ml. In more severe condition, namely 200 cells/ml, toxoplasma has a high risk to cause cerebral toxoplasmosis. The common finding on this condition is extremely high anti toxoplasma IgG titer. (Ibebuike et al, 2012; Espinoza-oliva et al, 2016). Epidemiology Seropositive toxoplasma on healthy americans ranged from 10% until 40%. These findings are higher in Europe and Central America, namely 70% until 90%. Overall, cerebral toxoplasmosis incidence is decreasing due to better use inprophylaxis and treatment of HIV (anti retroviral) (Avindra & Anthony, 2003). Etiology Toxoplasmosis is caused by Toxoplasma gondii, an obligate intracellular parasite which is found for the first time on African Gondii mouse. Cat is the definitive host of Toxoplasma due to its cycle which can only be completed inside the cat gut (Avinra & Anthony, 2003).
449
Picture 3.3 Life Cycle of Toxoplasma gondii. Cat is the definitive host of Toxoplasma gondii due to its cycle which can only be completed inside the cat gut.
Pathophysiology The mechanism of which HIV enter inside the brain remains unclear but novel researchs stated that infected cells could bind to vascular and enter through the blood brain barrier via blood. The viruses thus being transmitted to microglial or perivascular macrophage. Virus then will replicate and infect another microglia and spread the infection. Infected microglials will release cytokines which enchance apoptosis. The result of this cascade is encephalitis (Bowen et al, 2016).
450
Picture 3.4. Neuropathophysiology of HIV Infection inside the Brain
Cerebral toxoplasmosis is often caused by reactivation of recent chronic infection. Changing of cytokines inside the brain cells will enhance the differentiation of cyst to be tachyzoite. Toxoplasma gondii could replicate in all kind of brain cells and proliferation of this parasite depends to host immune response. Novel research showed that CD4 T cells and Interferon Gamma in charge of cyst proliferation inside the brain cells. In some infected individuals, immune response failed in eradicating infection thus the parasite became dormant and developed chronic infections. Because of this explanation, individuals who own low CD4+ T cells count such as HIV patients will trigger a severe toxoplasmosis, such as cerebral toxoplasmosis which is life-threatening (Boothroyd, 1998).
Clinical manifestation Toxoplasmosis on HIV patients will manifest as an encephalitis, chorioretinitis, or pneumonitis depending on hostâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s immune. Cerebral toxoplasmosis has subacute onset which is initiated with symptomps such as fever, headache, and loss of conciousness. Cerebellar, subcortical and cortical lesion on more than half cases cause neurological symptoms such as hemiparesis, ambulatory gait, and language impairement. Loss of cociousness, headache, cognitive impairement, and seizure are the most common clinical manifestations on cerebral toxoplasmosis patients (Ganiem et al, 2013). Cerebral Abcess
451
Cerebral abcess is one of the most common clinical manifestation of cerebral toxoplasmosis on HIV patients. Symptomps can be seen in weeks and CT scan shows cerebral abcess with predilection in ganglia basalis this triggers motor disorder such as hemichroea, parkinsonism, and tremor. Multiple abcess is often seen on HIV patients with toxoplasmosis thus causing vision impairement, focal seizure, afacia, hemiparesis or hemisensory, cranial nerves paralysis, and cerebellum dysfunction (Avindra & Antony, 2003). Encephalitis Encephalitis is marked with loss of conciousness, generalized seizure, and headache. CT scan shows normal findings in the beginning. The degree of encephalitis variate and could progress in months thus causing death in second weeks of disease history. HIV patients which is also suffering of diffuse encephalitis will experience progresivity until 8 weeks. Toxoplasmosis will affect and invade lymph node, heart, muscle, lungs, bone marrow, and brain thus causing systemic disease. Cerebrospinal fluid shows pleiocytotic of mononuclear cells with an increase in protein and glucose (Avindra & Anthony, 2003). Diagnosis Presumtive diagnosis of cerebral toxoplasmosis can be made with clinical, radiological, and serological test. Clinical diagnosis can be made when individual with HIV infection shows CD4 cells below 100 cells/ml with neurological symptomps. Generally, response to success therapy will shows improvement after empirical treatment for 2-3 weeks. Serological diagnosis shows an increase in IgG antitoxoplasma for 1-2 weeks post infection and reach its peak in 6-8 weeks. After that It will decrease in 1-2 years but could persist on some individuals. Radiological diagnosis is based on CT scan or head MRI with a hipodense lesion, ring enhancement, and perilesion edema. Most of nodule are found near basal ganglia. But, lesion could be found in cerebellum, brain stem, and medulla spinalis. PCR can be used to clarify the diagnosis. Immunoglobulin M for antitoxoplasma findings shows a novel infection, meanwhile immunoglobulin G finding shows reactivation of toxoplasmosis. (Wright et al, 2018; Valadkhani et al, 2017).

Treatment Treatment of toxoplasmosis on HIV patients follows this algorithm :
453
The occuring of abducens nerve paralysis is caused by the increase in intracranial pressure, which is proved by the increase in CSF amount. The increase in intracranial pressure is a byproduct of the increase of the rate of CSF production and amount which will induce disorders by compressing the ligamentum petrosa which will disrupt the abducens nerve and cause symptoms (Murthy, 2005). Based on studies, it is known that in TB infections both in active condition and old lesions there are disorders in the cranial nerves. The predilection of the cranial nerve disorders involves the third nerve (Oculomotorius), sixth (Abducens), and seventh (Facialis). According to the present condition of the patient after being infected by meningoencephalitis TB, there is a disorder involving the reduced lateral movement of the eyeball which suggests problems in the sixth cranial nerve (Abducens) (Jeroma, 2014).

The condition of electrolyte imbalance in patients with meningoencephalitis TB is strongly suspected as the output of various causes. From multiple sources, it is said that there is a regulation disorder caused by the reduced function of the adrenal cortex. Other than that, disorders in the electrolyte balance could also be caused by food intake disorders and projectile vomiting which is commonly happening in children (Kasper, 2018). Electrolyte imbalance is defined as an imbalance in the electrolyte levels, marked by the increase or decrease of the electrolyte levels inseide the body caused by a certain metabolic process inside the body. This could be caused by many causes, one of them being the loss of body fluids du to vomiting, diarrhea, dan burns. Other than those, renal disorders and metabolic disorders could also be a possible cause. Based on this case, the electrolyte disorder is possibly caused by 2 possible causes, which is Cerebral Salt Wasting Syndrome (CSWS) and Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH) (Audibert,2012). Cerebral Salt Wasting is a possible cause of hyponatremia in CNS disorders. Cerebral Salt Wasting is characterized by hyponatremia accompanied with the increase of urine sodium levels and hypovolemia. CSW mostly appears after a CNS disorder, such as subarachnoid hemorrhage. Some researches mentioned that CSW could happen because of the secretion of Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) after brain damage which enters the systemic circulation, facilitated by the disruption of the blood brain barrier. BNP works at the collecting ducts on obstructing the reabsorption of sodium and renin secretion, explaining the symptoms happening in this patient (Cerda, 2008). The other diagnosis which could facilitate this condition is Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone (SIADH). In the case of SIADH, there is an increase in the amount of antidiuretic hromone that works on the aquaporins in the collecting ducts, causing an increase in the extracellular volume inside the body which leads to hypervolemia and urine volume decrease. SIADH needs to be differentiated from CSW in respect to the major differences in treating these disorders. In the case of CSW, there is a need of fluid resucitation and sodium supplementation. Conversely, in SIADH, there needs to be a fluid restriction imposed on the patient (Cuesta, 2016). Treatment Based on the discussion above, to manage the emergency condition being status epilecticus accompanied with decrease of consciousness, there needs to be management being : 1. Phenitoin (IV) 20mg/kgBW as long as 30 minutes, continued 8mg/kgBW divided into 3 doses 2. Diazepam (IV) 0.3mg/kgBW

After the emergency management is done, there needs to be management of HIV. Based on the planning, there needs to be 2 types of management being: 1. Management of HIV (Based on the case being 4th stadium HIV) 2. Management of opportunistic infections a)
Meningoencephalitis TB
b)
Cerebral toxoplasmosis
1. HIV management There needs to be prophylaxis initiation by using cotrimoxazole in order to prevent the infection of Pneumocystis jiroveci (PCP) in the patient. The treatment using prophylaxis is according to the WHO guideline in 2013 being that children below 5 years old needs to be given cotrimoxazole in any stadium and CD4+ count below 350 cells/ml that could be continued throughout life or stopped if CD4+ count is above 350 cell/ml (Kemenkes, 2014). Other than the diagnosis of HIV, there needs to be consideration to search for opportunistic infections. If an opportunistic infection is found, the opportunistic infection needs to be first treated before the use of ARVs. Based on the guideline from the Ministry of Health, the first line treatment of ARVs recommended are 2 Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor (NRTI) + 1 Non Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor (NNRTI). The first category of NRTIs used are lamifudin. Lamifudin could be combined with other NRTIs, jidovudin and one other NNRTI, nevirapin. In this patient, the physician decided to administer sidovudin (AZT), lamifudin (3TC), dan nevirapin (NVP). 2. Management of opportunistic infection a)
Meningoencephalitis TB Because it is know that the patient has meningoencephalitis TB, the patient needs to be given anti tuberculosis drugs before the management of HIV being the administration of ARVs. Based on the guideline from CDC, it is said that the effective period of ARV administration on TB cases are 4-8 weeks long after the initial administration of anti tuberculosis drugs. This is needed to prevent the happening of Immune Reconstruction Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS). Anti tuberculosis drugs used in management of tuberculosis is being divided into 2 phases, those 2 phases being the initial and late phase. There exists 5

medications in the management of TB, which are rifampicin (R), isoniazid (H), pyrazinamid (Z), etambutol â&#x201A;Ź, dan streptomycin (S). In the initial phase, during 2 months, the RHZE drugs are used. During the late phase, the RH drugs are used during 10 months. Prednison is administered in order to prevent fibrosis in the lung tissue post TB infection. b)
Cerebral toxoplasmosis In order to manage toxoplasmosis, the physician administered clindamycin and pyrimethamine. The duration of therapy in TC in HIV patients varies from the minimal duration of 3 weeks until 6-8 weeks. The challenge in the management of TX is the chemotherapy target in order to suppress the growth of tachyzoids, but having a limited effect in suppressing the growth of bradyzoids. Knowing that, prophylactic therapy in immunocompromised individuals are needed to prevent relapse. Pyrimethamine is a medication used in toxoplasmosis with a side effect in the spine bone marrow. Folic acid is used In combination with pyrimethamine to prevent bone marrow depression
Conclusion Currently the patient is being treated with anti tuberculosis drugs, ARVs, dan toxoplasmosis therapy. According to the Peds-QL examination, the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growth arent experiencing a decrease in quality. Family views on the disease and treatment taken by the patient in the long term is very important in the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s physical and mental growth. During the 6 months long observation, the patient obeys the instructions to take ARVs, anti tuberculosis and toxoplasmosis. Any complaints regarding side effects of the drugs were not found. The patient is capable of doing everyday activities and continuing education. From the 6th month therapy evaluation, any signs of side effects were not found and marked increase of immunity, proved by the CD4+ cell count above 200 cells/microlitre.
