Background: Rapid access clinics are an increasingly common model of care in tertiary hospitals. Early streaming of suitable patients to appropriate clinic services could reduce Emergency Department overcrowding. This study set out to investigate the current utilisation of rapid access clinic dispositions in a tertiary centre. The findings have led to useful mapping of local services and early nurse led identification of patients suitable for streaming to clinic locations. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study in a tertiary centre. Complete lists of consecutive discharged Emergency Department patients were generated by a trained data manger. Individual electronic medical records were reviewed for evidence of clinic disposition, patient demographics and compared with concurrent Emergency Department patients who were not referred. Results: 1367 patients included from 144 h of consecutive weekday presentations. Referral to clinic locations occurred in 179/1357 (13.2%) with rapid access clinics utilised in 129/179 (70.4%). No difference in median length of stay was observed for patients referred to clinics (3.9 h) versus patients not referred (3.8 h) (p = 0.29). Conclusion: In a tertiary Emergency Department setting, discharged patients were frequently referred to rapid access clinics. Early streaming to suitable outpatient locations may be an additional strategy to consider for mitigating Emergency Department overcrowding.

Objective: Transurethral lithotripsy using Holmium-YAG laser has been reported to be beneficial in breaking up bladder stones with large size (>4cm in diameter) with lower risk of mucosal injury and hematuria. The aim of this study is to evaluate the utilization of Holmium-YAG laser for the management of bladder stones at Kardinah General Hospital, Tegal. Material & Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted from January 2017 to March 2017. Patient’s demography, which included age, sex, length of surgery, stone size, and laser’s energy count were recorded. Results: We included 120 patients in this study. Mean of patients age in this study was 51.93 years old with age range were 41-85 years old. Most of the patients were male (109 vs 11) with a mean size of stone 25.09 ± 3.04 mm. Length of surgery ranges from 15 to 75 minutes and mean energy of the laser 28.99 ± 19.34 kJ. There was 100% stone’s clearance following surgery with no major complication occurred. Conclusion: Holmium-YAG laser is effective in managing bladder stones at Kardinah General Hospital particularly for large size stones. Length of surgery and energy of laser used depend on the stone size in which bigger stone size is associated with longer surgery time and bigger laser energy needed.

Low Birth Weight (LBW) is an infant born with a birth weight of less than 2500 grams regardless of gestation. Birth weight is the weight of the baby weighed in 1 hour after birth. (Depkes RI, 2009). Based on WHO and UNICEF data, in 2013 about 222 million babies were born in the world, of which 16% were born with low birth weight. The percentage of LBW in developing countries is 16.5% twice that of developed countries (7%) (Scholar Unand, 2014). The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between anemia and Smoking Habit in Pregnant Women with LBW occurrence in General Hospital Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang Year 2016. This research use analytical survey method with cross sectional approach. The population in this study were all mothers who gave birth monthly in Midwifery Installation of Dr. General Hospital Mohammad Hoesin Palembang in 2016 as many as 315 respondents. The sample of this research is some of mothers who give birth enough month in Midwifery Installation of Dr. General Hospital Mohammad Hoesin Palembang Year 2016 as many as 315 respondents. ". From the results of bivariate analysis of anemic respondents with the occurrence of LBW obtained statistical test X2 count = 23.22 which means there is a significant relationship between anemia with the incidence of BBLR. Respondents smoking with the occurrence of LBWR obtained statistical test X2 count = 41.20 which means there is a relationship Meaningful between smoking and LBW incidence. From the results of this study is expected that this research can be a reference material and is a complete information and useful for the development of knowledge about LBW.
