Background: Cardiomegaly refers to an abnormal enlargement of the heart, which can be detected through various diagnostic methods, with echocardiography regarded as the gold standard. However, in patients who are bedridden, along with the limitations in healthcare infrastructure at some medical facilities, antero-posterior (AP) chest radiography serves as a more accessible alternative. This stu…

Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk mengevaluasi dan menganalisis ketepatan data dalam mengklasifikasikan diagnosis penyakit jantung menggunakan metode fuzzy decision tree dan random fores…
Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is an anomaly in the anatomy and physiology of the heart that is present from birth. CHD requires early detection as improper management can lead to death in the first month of life, with a mortality rate of approximately 50%. Patients with congenital disorders that are detected more than 3 days after birth are referred to as late presenters. This research is of d…
Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is a condition plaque forms in the arteries of the heart which can cause a heart attack. This buildup of plaque in the coronary arteries is called atherosclerosis. This study aims to determine patient demographics and the relationship between the level of compliance and the quality of life of CHD patients at RS Islam Khadijah Palembang. The analytical observational …
Background: Acute rheumatic fever is an advanced complication of tonsilopharynigitis caused by Group A Streptococus β haemolyticus (GAS) bacterial infection. If not treated properly, re-infection can occur that can cause progressive valvular heart damage which can eventually develop into rheumatic heart disease. The most effective way to prevent recurrent infection is by giving long-term antib…
Background. Congenital heart disease, also known as congenital heart defects (CHD), refers to anatomical abnormalities in the heart and major blood arteries that affect humans from the time of conception. The prevalence reaches eight to ten per 1000 births. Heart failure symptoms might range from pallor, cold acral, tachycardia or may also be asymptomatic. Heart murmurs may support the diagnosi…
Background: Heart failure is a condition where the heart is unable to fulfill the body's need for blood due to structural or functional abnormalities in the heart. The common symptom is the accumulation of fluid in the body, called congestion. Diuretics are the first-line symptomatic therapy to reduce this symptom. Inappropriate use of diuretics can lead to diuretic resistance. A study of drug …
Background: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common congenital diseases, around 8 out of 1000 babies are born with this condition. There are two types of CHD, namely cyanotic such as tetralogy of fallot and acyanotic such as ventricular septal defects. In children with CHD, developmental delays are generally found, especially in motor development, cognition, and language. This …
Cardiac arrest is one of emergency conditions that causes the work of heart to stop and could be in death if not treated immediately. Handling cardiac arrest is carried out by providing basic life support with chest compresses that can be done by lay helpers such as online motorcycle taxi riders because the majority of this profession spends their time on the road. The helper’s knowledge and …
Backgrounds: Coronary heart disease is a condition where there is inadequate blood supply to the heart and is the second leading cause of death in Indonesia. Researcher developed a WhatsApp-based chatbot that contains information about coronary heart disease and its prevention. Utilization of technology-based learning tools such as the MiPJK chatbot can increase public knowledge about risk fact…
The T peak - T end interval is a parameter in the ECG that can show the dispersion pattern of ventricular repolarization. Prolonged repolarization dispersion is known to be a risk factor for ventricular arrhythmias through the mechanism of reentrant arrhythmogenesis. Thus, the T peak – T end interval can be used to detect ventricular repolarization abnormalities and as a marker in the ECG, wh…
Background: Congenital heart disease is the most common malformation found in millions of newborns. Rapid advances in medical science have made it possible to carry out CHD management. The usual surgical treatment is open heart surgery which requires the use of cardiopulmonary bypass machine to replace the function of the heart and lungs. This study describes the overview of the CPB duration in…
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a disorder acquired during fetal development that affects the heart and blood vessels structurally and functionally. CHD consists of cyanotic and acyanotic types. The principle of PJB management is to do it as early as possible, one of which is by operating procedures. This study aims to describe the characteristics of cyanotic and acyanotic CHD patients underw…
