Miskonsepsi tentang pengobatan menjadi salah satu faktor tingginya ketidakpatuhan pengobatan. Masyarakat beranggapan bahwa penggunaan obat rutin pada hipertensi dan diabetes mellitus (DM) dapat menyebabkan gagal ginjal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyediakan kuesioner valid dan reliabel yang dapat digunakan untuk mengukur miskonsepsi masyarakat tentang pengobatan jangka panjang pada hipertensi dan DM dengan kejadian gagal ginjal. Pengembangan kuesioner dilakukan dalam 5 tahap yakni konseptualisasi, konstruksi alat ukur, uji coba melalui studi 1 pada 240 mahasiswa/i medis dan non-medis, dan studi 2 pada 300 masyarakat di wilayah Kabupaten Sleman, tes revisi dan selanjutnya tahap analisis melalui uji reliabilitas alpha cronbach. Sementara itu, uji validitas dilakukan dengan membandingkan kuesioner ini dengan kuesioner terpercaya lainnya. Hasil skala pengetahuan tentang terapi hipertensi dan DM terkait kejadian gagal ginjal pada studi 1 dan studi 2 tersusun atas 4 variabel pengetahuan meliputi: pengetahuan terapi hipertensi dan DMT (α 0.742, α 823), miskonsepsi penggunaan obat rutin (α 0.835, α 0.805), pengetahuan obat penyebab gagal ginjal (α 0.582), (α 0.581), serta pengetahuan faktor risiko gagal ginjal (α 0.721, α 0.698). Hasil analisis ini menunjukkan bukti awal dan menyediakan instumen valid dan relevan untuk mengukur tingkat miskonsepsi masyarakat tentang pengobatan jangka panjang pada hipertensi dan DM terkait dengan gagal ginjal.

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health problem with consistently increasing prevalence and incidence, poor prognosis, and high cost. CKD ranks third in funding in Indonesia, reaching IDR 2.3 trillion/year in 2018. Integrated Guidance Post (Posbindu) program affiliated to PHC (Puskesmas) with community cadres has been launched as a community empowerment effort to suppress CKD incidence. This study aimed to strengthen the capacity of Posbindu cadres as the health driving force about CKD to encourage public awareness of CKD risk factors. Method: This quasi-experimental study with one group pretest-posttest design compared four education models for Posbindu cadres in four PHC in Yogyakarta to improve their knowledge of CKD. All education models used the smart module with models 3 and 4 explicitly involving health-worker collaboration. Model 1 used posters, model 2 used leaflets, while model 4 also used posters and leaflets. Knowledge of CKD was assessed through a previously-validated questionnaire with four knowledge domains. Result: All of the 86 cadres were women aged 43.7±8.6 years, mostly with at least high-school education and no risk factors for CKD predisposition. The results showed that model 4 significantly improved knowledge of CKD risk factors, symptoms and examination, and prevention behavior. Meanwhile, improvement in the last domain about CKD treatment was likely affected by model 3. Conclusion: This study confirmed health-worker collaboration’s significance in increasing public knowledge of CKD. Adding various printed education media effectively increased knowledge of CKD, particularly in cadres with higher educational attainment.
Background: Anemia is the most common complication due to CKD. Normocytic normochromic is the most common type of anemia in CKD is, but there is also some microcytic hypochromic. Clinical examination such as erythrocyte indices examination and monitoring serum ferritin levels can help diagnose anemia in CKD. The purpose of this study is to determine the correlation between erythrocyte indices and ferritin levels in CKD patients in the hemodialysis unit of PKU Hospital Bantul.Methods: This research involved 50 CKD patients at PKU Hospital Bantul. Blood samples were taken to check ferritin levels and erythrocyte indices consisting of mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC). This study was conducted by cross-sectional study design. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20 for Windows.Results: The average hemoglobin level was 8.46±1.31 g/dL in males and 7.92±0.90 g/dL in females. Most of the hematological profile was predominant in male patients such as in MCV (89.36±6.72 fl), MCH (29.12±2.76 pg), and MCHC (32.95±0.96 g/dL). However, the average ferritin level (352.51±544.74 ng/mL) was predominant in female patients (399.99±680.96 ng/mL). There was a significant correlation between MCH and ferritin levels (r = 0.364; p = 0.009) and MCHC with ferritin levels (r = 0.295; p = 0.038). However, there was no significant correlation between MCV and ferritin levels (r = -0.059, p = 0.683).Conclusion: There is a significant correlation between MCH and MCHC levels with ferritin levels. In addition, the patients had normal MCV, MCH, and MCHC values with normocytic normochromic anemia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
