Background and aims: Water needs to be protected in order to remain beneficial to human life and other living things. This understanding shows that water has a very strategic role and must remain available and sustainable. Color in water is caused by the presence of particles of decay from organic matter, natural metal ions (iron, manganese) plankton, humus. The objective of this study was to determine the physical quality of water - color, chemistry, turbidity and iron (Fe) content. Methods: This study was a descriptive survey with 27 samples. The research site was conducted at the Technical Services Unit of Water Chemistry Laboratory, Medan Regional Health Laboratory. Results: The results of the study of dyes in clean water samples that met the requirements were 81.48% and those that did not meet the requirements were 18.52%. Turbidity in clean water samples, all samples studied were 100% eligible. The level of iron (Fe) in the clean water sample of 96.89% meets the 11.11% requirement which is not eligible. Conclusions: Water well drills in Medan regional health laboratory meet standard requirements of minister of health regulation.

EFEKTIVITAS HAND SANITIZER DALAM MEMBUNUH KUMAN DI TANGAN

2020-01-10T09:08:21+00:00

Background and aims: Washing hands with soap and water can more effectively clean the dirt that clings to the surface of the skin, nails and fingers on both hands, but sometimes washing hands becomes difficult because it's not always easy to find water and soap. Along with the development of knowledge, hand washing activities have been seen to be more practical, namely by using an antiseptic liquid or gel that can be used anywhere and anytime without having to rinse with water, called hand sanitizer. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of hand sanitizer. Methods: The design of this study was Quasi Experiments that conducted at the Bacteriology Laboratory of the Poltekkes Kemenkes Medan, majoring of Medical Laboratory Technology from September to November 2018 with a sample of 2 brands of hand sanitizers. Results: The results of this study showed that the treatment before and after the use of 2 brands of hand sanitizer is significantly effective in killing germs on the hands, with the results of the treatment after the use of hand sanitizers reduced compared to the treatment before the use of Hand Sanitizers. Conclusions: Hand sanitizers were effective in killing germs on the hands.

GAMBARAN GLUKOSURIA PADA PENDERITA DIABETES MELLITUS TIPE II DI RUMAH SAKIT UMUM DAERAH DR. PIRNGADI MEDAN

2020-01-10T09:20:14+00:00

Background and aims: Diabetes Mellitus is a degenerative disease with metabolic disorders, fat and protein and is characterized by high blood and urine glucose levels. In type II Diabetes Mellitus, the body’s insulin receptors do not work properly, so that blood sugar cannot enter the body’s cells effectively as a result there is an excess of blood sugar, this situation makes blood sugar into urine called glycosuria. The aim of this study was to get the picture of glycosuria in Type II Diabetes Mellitus patients in DR. Pirngadi Regional Public Hospital. Methods: This was descriptive study that conducted in May-June 2019. With a population of all Diabetes Mellitus type II patients who performed glucose examinations urine in DR. Pirngadi General Hospital Medan and the study sample were 50 Diabetes Mellitus type II patients who performed urine glucose examination. The method of Enzymatic Glucose oxidase/peroxidase (GOD/POD) was used to examine. Results: of 50 patients with Diabetes Mellitus type II consisted of 27 men and 23 women, with positive urine glucose 30 patients and negative 20 patients. Conclusions: The results showed that there were 30 patients with Diabetes Mellitus type II who had glycosuria.

HUBUNGAN INFEKSI SOIL TRANSMITTED HELMINTHS (STH) TERHADAP KARAKTERISTIK MASYARAKAT LINGKUNGAN SEKITAR PETERNAKAN DI DAERAH KLUMPANG KAMPUNG KECAMATAN HAMPARAN PERAK

Background and aims: Worm disease is a common people disease that encountered in rural areas, infections can occur simultaneously by several types of worms at once. For children, the worm disease will have an impact for the impaired learning ability, and for adult will decreasing the work productivity. At the North Sumatra, especially Medan City, prevalence of worms in children around (60-70%) of all cases. The aim of this study was to investigate a relationship between Soil Transmitted Helminths infection and the characteristics of the community around the farm. Methods: The study was conducted on March-June 2018. Soil Transmitted Helminths was determined at Parasitology Laboratory of Medical Laboratory Technology, Poltekkes Kemenkes Medan by using eosin 2% method, with population of 26 samples. The research was analytic observational using cross sectional design. The data obtained were analyzed using chi-square test at 95% confidence level (p< 0.05). Results: of 26 samples, there were 5 samples that was infected by the Ascaris lumbricoides (20%), correlation between of Soil Transmitted Helminths infections with the ages are 19.2% only for children, with the gender are 11.15% for male and 7.7% for female. The correlation between infections of Soil Transmitted Helminths with the education is 19.2% for the Elementary School. Correlation between the infections of Soil Transmitted Helminths with the work is 19.2%.Conclusions: Chi-square test obtained that there was a correlation between education levels with Soil Transmitted Helminths infection (p = 0.007).

SKRINING MAKROSKOPIS CAIRAN PLEURA DARI EFUSI PLEURA DI UNIT LABORATORIUM PATOLOGI ANATOMI RUMAH SAKIT UMUM PENDIDIKAN HAJI ADAM MALIK MEDAN

2020-01-10T09:37:19+00:00

Background and aims: The lungs are wrapped by a membrane called the pleura and between the membranes and the lungs there is a pleural cavity which normally contains around 10-20 ml of fluid which serves as a lubricant so that the lungs can move freely while breathing. Pleural fluid screening is done by macroscopic observation of pleural fluid due to color, character (viscosity and turbidity) and odor maybe the either diagnostic or helpful in diagnosis. The objective of this study is to determine the most results from macroscopic screening of pleural fluid from pleural effusion at Anatomical Pathology Laboratory Unit of Central General Hospital of Haji Adam Malik, Medan. Methods: The study was a descriptive survey with primary data and secondary data. Conducted on June 2019 at the Anatomical Pathology Laboratory Unit of Haji Adam Malik Hospital, Medan. A total samples of 31 pleural fluid samples were macroscopic screened. Results: 31 pleural fluid samples that have been carried out by macroscopic screening showed that the color of the pleural fluid was red as much as 41.93%, thick pleural fluid 6.45%, and cloudy pleural fluid 74.20%. There more than 80% compatibility between macroscopic pleural fluid and estimated diagnosis. Also obtained data of patients with pleural effusion were most women as much as 51.61% and the most etiology of pleural effusion was inflammation of 86.21%. Conclusions: Most of pleural fluid samples showed compatibility with macroscopic and estimated diagnosis.
