Background: Postoperative pain following repeat cesarean section is often more severe due to the existence of scar tissue and adhesions from previous cesarean section. One method to alleviate pain is the administration of intraperitoneal lidocaine. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of intraperitoneal lidocaine 3.5 mg/kgBW in reducing pain after a repeat cesarean section ≥ 2 times. …
Introduction: Laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation may provoke sympathetic activation, resulting in increased blood pressure and heart rate, particularly in hypertensive patients. Opioids such as fentanyl and sufentanil are commonly used to attenuate this hemodynamic response. However, comparative evidence regarding their effects in hypertensive patients remains limited. Methods: This doubl…
Background : Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood sugar levels caused by insulin resistance or impaired insulin secretion. The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus continues to increase, especially in rural areas due to low public awareness and limited access to non-communicable disease control. Methods : This study used a case-control design …
Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that may lead to long-term complications, including cognitive impairment, particularly among the pre-elderly population. Glycemic control, measured by HbA1c, is a key component of DM management and is influenced, among other factors, by medication adherence. Good glycemic control may contribute to reducing the risk of cognitive impairment.…
