The article describes the experience of clinical testing of the personal telemedicine system (PTS) ‘Obereg’ for remote monitoring of patients with the consequences of severe conditions in leading Russian clinics. It is shown that such patients are at high risk of complications when transferred from the ICU to a normal ward with limited medical supervision and lack of instrumentation. The use of remote monitoring using the personal telemedicine system ‘Obereg’ allows to solve this problem. The results of the use of PTS ‘Obereg’ for the organization of monitoring in the home patronage of patients with limited mobility are presented. It is indicated that such devices should be used in an emergency situation similar to a coronavirus pandemic to monitor patients who are in infectious boxes and on home treatment.

This paper is the part of an extensive study which analyzes and examines the processes on the Bulgarian market that unfold in the emergency situation resulting from the COVID-19 pandemics. The focus is on the state of the labour market before the pandemic crisis and the subsequent changes in the current national employment plan in view of the challenges of the situation caused by COVID-19. It proposes measures and supports actions for restructuring the financial resource for adaptation of the plan to the new challenge to the labour market in Bulgaria.

ABSTRAK Latar Belakang: Secara klinis, leukostasis didiagnosa pada pasien leukemia dengan hasil laboratorium hiperleukositosis (>100.000 u/L) disertai manifestasi respiratorik, neurologis, atau renal. Insidensi hiperleukositosis pada Leukemia Limfoblastik Akut (LLA) usia dewasa 10-30%, jarang pada wanita, dan jarang menyebabkan leukostasis. Laporan Kasus: Seorang wanita berusia 20 tahun dikonsulkan dari bagian penyakit dalam dengan kejang umum tonik-klonik. Hasil laboratorium menunjukkan leukosit 134.500 u/L, hasil EKG menunjukkan iskemik miokardium. Diskusi: Leukostasis jarang terjadi pada pasien leukemia. Leukostasis menyebabkan aliran oksigen dalam darah menuju sel menjadi inadekuat, termasuk salah satunya aliran darah yang menuju sel otak. Hipoksia jaringan otak merupakan salah satu faktor pemicu terjadinya kejang. Kesimpulan: Leukostasis merupakan suatu keadaan emergensi yang dapat meningkatkan morbiditas dan mortalitas pasien. Tujuan tatalaksana penyakit adalah mengurangi mortalitas dini, termasuk tatalaksana kejang, yang merupakan salah satu menifestasi klinis leukostasis. Kata kunci: kejang, leukostasis, leukemia.   ABSTRACT Background: Clinically, leukostasis is diagnosed in patients with leukemia with laboratory results of hyperleukocytosis (> 100,000 u / L) followed by respiratory, neurological, or renal manifestations. The incidence of hyperleukocytosis in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (LLA) is 10-30% of adult age, rare in women, and rarely causes leukostasis. Case Report: A 20th-years-old woman was consulted from an Internal Medicine Department with a tonic-clonic general seizure. Laboratory results showed that leukocytes were 134,500 U / L and ECG results showed an ischemic myocardium. Discussion: Leukostasis rarely occurs in leukemic patients. Leukostasis causes the flow of oxygen in the blood to the cells to be inadequate, including the blood flow to brain cells. Brain tissue hypoxia is one of the trigger factors for seizures. Conclussion: Leukostasis is an emergency situation that can increase patient morbidity and mortality. The aim of disease management is to reduce early mortality, including management of seizures, which is one of the clinical manifestations of leukostasis. Keywords: seizure, leukostasis, leukemia.
