These errors can occur at the stage of writing prescriptions by doctors, providing and preparing drugs by pharmacists, to administering drugs to patients by nurses or patients themselves. Medication errors can lead to a variety of negative consequences, ranging from mild side effects to life-threatening events. This study aims to examine the role of effective communication in reducing medication errors in pharmacy practice. The research method used is a qualitative approach with an exploratory case study at the Salsabilah pharmacy in Leuwikujang Village, Leuwimunding District, Majalengka Regency and the Salsabilah 2 pharmacy in Trajaya Village, Palasah District, Majalengka Regency. The research sample consisted of health workers (pharmacists and doctors) at the Salsabilah pharmacy in Leuwikujang Village, Leuwimunding District, Majalengka Regency and the Salsabilah 2 pharmacy in Trajaya Village, Palasah District, Majalengka Regency, as well as patients who received services at the pharmacy. The results of the study show that effective communication between health workers and patients can improve patient safety by reducing the risk of medication errors. Good communication helps patients understand the treatment they are receiving, so they can follow instructions correctly and report any other side effects or problems immediately.</em></p> Fitri Zakiah Ris Ayu Nuari Asep Hermawan Copyright (c) 2024 Journal La Medihealtico http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ 2024-08-28 2024-08-28 5 4 717 722 10.37899/journallamedihealtico.v5i4.1441 Clinical Outcomes of Diabetic Patients with and without Hypertension Vaccinated with the Sinovac Vaccine https://newinera.com/index.php/JournalLaMedihealtico/article/view/1460 <p><em>Diabetes and hypertension are the most common degenerative diseases found during the Covid-19 vaccination.

Colostrum has important benefits in promoting the maturity of premature infants' organ functions and preventing infections. Preterm infants are recommended to be given colostrum orally and pharyngeally as early as possible after birth to provide immune protective effects for their bodies. However, the sucking and swallowing functions of preterm infants are often not optimal, partly due to comorbidities, which poses a significant challenge. As a result, the immune system of preterm infants is often low. This literature review aimed to evaluate the effect of oropharyngeal colostrum feeding through subgroup analysis based on complications. Descriptive research was conducted in April-June 2024 using the literature review method with PRISMA guidelines for RCTs. Literature sources were obtained from Pubmed (MEDLINE), Science Direct, Google Scholar, and Cochrane with a publication limit of the last ten years (2014-2023). Of the 1,657 results, 13 articles met the criteria. A total of 1,451 preterm infants were included in the 13 RCT studies. Results showed a lower incidence of late-onset sepsis and Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) in the group that received oropharyngeal colostrum. The administration of oropharyngeal colostrum was shown to have a positive impact on the development and defense of the immune system of preterm infants, reduce health problems such as sepsis and NEC, accelerate the recovery of birth weight, and reduce the incidence of mortality.</em></p> Adinda Alfi Azizah Yessi Crosita Octaria Copyright (c) 2024 Journal La Medihealtico http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ 2024-09-02 2024-09-02 5 4 763 772 10.37899/journallamedihealtico.v5i4.1386 The Relationship of Menstrual Hygiene Behavior with Menstrual Cycle Disorders in Female Prisoners: A Sequential Explanatory Analysis https://newinera.com/index.php/JournalLaMedihealtico/article/view/1454 <p><em>Menstrual hygiene behaviors, such as using clean sanitary napkins, washing the body with soap, and disposing of used sanitary napkins properly, play an important role in preventing menstrual disorders.

Recently, sucralfat has been used topically for the healing of various epithelial wounds, including ulcers, inflammatory dermatitis, mucositis, and burns. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of sucralfat as a topical therapy in reducing itching (pruritus) and improving the skin barrier. The analysis method used is Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). A literature search was conducted on studies from 2004 to 2024 using keywords such as "sucralfate", "pruritus", "dermatitis", and "skin barrier" on PubMed, ProQuest, Science Direct, and Scopus databases. Inclusion criteria include topic relevance, research design, human subjects, and United Kingdom-speaking studies. Of the 141 articles found, 7 articles met the inclusion criteria. These studies involved a total of 605 subjects from different countries and used clinical trial methods and randomized controlled trials. The results showed that topical sucralfat was effective in reducing itching and improving the skin barrier in various skin conditions such as diaper dermatitis, chronic ulcers, and postoperative wounds. Sukralfat shows great potential in wound healing and skin barrier repair through the mechanism of protective layer formation, increased expression of epidermal growth factors, and anti-inflammatory properties. This effect indirectly helps reduce pruritus which often occurs due to damage to the skin barrier. Topical succulthate is effective in reducing itching and repairing the skin barrier, making it a promising therapy for a variety of inflammatory and ulcerative skin conditions. </em></p> Vrenda Alia Suci Widhiati Triasari Oktavriana Lifesia Natali Lidjaja Laura Noviani Copyright (c) 2024 Journal La Medihealtico http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ 2024-09-25 2024-09-25 5 4 816 829 10.37899/journallamedihealtico.v5i4.1508 Exercise Promotes Mirnas’ Change in Cardiac Fibrosis https://newinera.com/index.php/JournalLaMedihealtico/article/view/1526 <p><em>Cardiac fibrosis is a pathological feature as a key factor in cardiac remodelling, thus progressing to heart failure.

The research method used was the combination method (mix method). The research was conducted from September 2023 to August 2024. The number of samples was 196 mothers who had children aged 12-59 months in the work area of Pegambiran Health Center using the sampling technique of cluster random sampling. The data were collected through questionnaires and interviews. This research data analysis was carried out using univariate and bivariate analysis. The result of statistical test, it was found out that the relationship knowledge (p-value 0.002), exposure information (p-value 0.007) and cadre support (p-value 0.000) to mothers' visits in the scope of toddler weighing.The conclusion of the research is that there is a significant relationship between knowledge, exposure information and cadre support to mothers' visits in the scope of toddler weighing&nbsp; at the work area of Pegambiran Health Center.</em></p> Septia Suherlis Roza Sriyanti Malinda Meinapuri Ariadi Ariadi Afdal Afdal Firdawati Firdawati Copyright (c) 2024 Journal La Medihealtico http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ 2024-10-04 2024-10-04 5 4 873 879 10.37899/journallamedihealtico.v5i4.1555 Combination of Moderate Intensity Exercise and Rose Petals Yoghurt Alters Blood Pressure and Soluble Rage Level in High Advanced Glycation End Products Diet Induced Wistar Rat https://newinera.com/index.php/JournalLaMedihealtico/article/view/1556 <p><em>A diet high in advanced glycation end products (AGEs) has been linked to an increased risk of hypertension and other vascular degenerative diseases. Some intervention such as moderate intensity exercise, yogurt probiotic intake and anthocyanin supplementation had been conducted separately, and showed promising effects. The aim of this study is to analyse the effect of combining rose petal yoghurt and moderate intensity exercise in lowering blood pressure and sRAGE level in high AGEs diet induced model. This research was experimental study, using post test-only control group design. The animals that were used were white male rats (Rattus norvegicus) Wistar strain, divided into 5 groups. Group KN was given standar diet, KP was treated with high AGEs diet, KA was treated with high AGEs diet and combination of rose yoghurt and moderate exercise, KB was given high AGEs diet dan rose yoghurt, and KC group was treated with high AGEs diet and moderate exercise. After 12 weeks systolic and diastolic blood pressure was examined using Kent Scientific CODA blood pressure analyzer and sRAGE examined with ELISA technique. The result shows most decline in systolic and diastolic BP was at KC group which got a high AGEs diet and moderate intensity exercise. KC’s systolic BP was measured 120 ± 2.82 mmHg and diastolic at 77.25 ± 9.5 mmHg. The results of ELISA examination show KN has higher sRAGE level at 1865 ± 503.4 ng/L on the contrary KP has lower sRAGE level at 530 ± 78.6 ng/L.</em></p> Ardhiyanti Puspita Ratna Anditri Weningtyas Widya Dana Amelia Rexy Ichtiar Chesara Putra Copyright (c) 2024 Journal La Medihealtico http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ 2024-10-04 2024-10-04 5 4 880 889 10.37899/journallamedihealtico.v5i4.1556 Profile of Generalized Pustular Psoriasis Inpatient Installation at Dr. Moewardi General Hospital Surakarta from January 2018-December 2022 https://newinera.com/index.php/JournalLaMedihealtico/article/view/1584 <p><em>Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a form of psoriasis characterised by the presence of sterile pustules. Its prevalence is between 2 and 3.5% of the population worldwide and in Indonesia it is 2.5% of the population. It can cause severe physical and psychosocial distress affecting the patient's quality of life. Objective: To describe the profile of GPP patients treated in the inpatient installation of Dr. Moewardi Hospital, Surakarta in the period of January 2018-December 2022. A retrospective descriptive study was conducted using the secondary data of medical records of GPP patients treated in the inpatient installation of Dr. Moewardi Hospital from January 2018 to December 2022. Results: In the 5-year period, there were 23 GPP inpatients, predominated by female (78.26%) with the age ranged from 5 to 74 years old. Generalised pustular psoriasis mostly affected the age group of 41- 50 years old (26.04%). Most patients were hospitalized for 6–10 days (39.13%). The most common therapy was immunosuppressant (65.2%) followed by oral corticosteroids (26.1%) and zinc (17.4%). Most patients also received moisturizer therapy (56.5%). Generalised pustular psoriasis mostly affects people aged between 41 and 50 years old. Females are more prone to GPP. The therapy given are oral immunosuppressive regimens, oral corticosteroids, zinc, topical corticosteroids and moisturizers.</em></p> Nurul Hidayati Nurrachmat Mulianto Laura Noviani Lifesia Natali Lidjaja Copyright (c) 2024 Journal La Medihealtico http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ 2024-10-04 2024-10-04 5 4 890 897 10.37899/journallamedihealtico.v5i4.1584
