Tujuan dilakukannya penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan paritas dan umur ibu terhadap kejadian Kehamilan Ektopik Terganggu (KET) di RSUD Syekh Yusuf Gowa 2018.Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian analitik dengan menggunakan pendekatan Cross Section Study untuk mengetahui hubungan paritas dan umur terhadap kejadian Kehamilan Ektopik Terganggu di RSUD Syekh Yusuf Gowa dengan jumlah populasi 204 orang dan jumlah sampel 135 orang dengan menggunakan teknik Random Sampling. Responden yang memiliki paritas tinggi terhadap kejadian Kehamilan Ektopik Terganggu (KET) terdiagnosa sebanyak 87 orang (64,4%) dan yang memiliki paritas rendah terhadap kejadian Kehamilan Ektopik Terganggu (KET) sebanyak 48 orang (35,6%). Dari hasil uji statistik dengan menggunakan uji Chi-Square diperoleh nilai P (0,020) ≤ α (0,05), maka Ho diolak Ha diterima.Responden yang memiliki umur risiko tinggi terhadap kejadian kehamilan ektopik terganggu terdiagnosis sebanyak 76 orang (56,3%) dan responden yang memiliki umur risiko rendah terhadap kejadian kehamilan ektopik terganggu terdiagnosis sebanyak 59 orang (43,7%). Dari hasil uji statistik dengan menggunakan uji Chi-Square diperoleh nilai P (0,038) ≤ α (0,05), maka Ho ditolak dan Ha diterima. Kesimpulan dari kedua variabel yaitu paritas dan umur, kedua variabel berhubungan terhadap kejadian Kehamilan Ektopik Terganggu (KET) di RSUD Syekh Yusuf Gowa 2018

The Relationship

Abstract Background In recent years, spiritual well-being has gradually gained the attention of health care providers in China, especially those in oncology departments, who have recognized the importance of improving spiritual well-being in cancer patients. Since most of the current research on spiritual well-being has been carried out in areas with religious beliefs, this study was conducted in the context of no development of formal religion. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between death anxiety and spiritual well-being and the related factors of spiritual well-being among gynecological cancer patients. Methods This cross-section study was conducted among 586 gynecological cancer patients. The European Organization for Research and Treatment for Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-spiritual well-being32 (EORTC QLQ-SWB32) and Templer's Death Anxiety Scale (T-DAS) were used to measure spiritual well-being and death anxiety. The Multiple Linear Regression Model was used to determine the relationship between spiritual well-being and death anxiety. Results For all participants, the highest QLQ-SWB32 centesimal score was 75.13 on the Relationship with Other scale, and the lowest was 60.33 on the Relationship with Someone or Something Greater Scale. The mean Death Anxiety score was 5.31 (SD 3.18). We found that Relationship with Someone or Something Greater was the only scale not associated with death anxiety. Overall, patients with lower death anxiety have a higher level of spiritual well-being. Besides, a high Relationship with Other score was associated with living with a partner (B = 2.471, P < 0.001) and married (B = -6.475, P = 0.001). Patients with higher Global-SWB were retired (B = 0.387, P = 0.019). Conclusions Our study found that the spiritual well-being of patients with gynecological cancer in China was no worse than in other countries with religious beliefs and patients with lower death anxiety have a higher level of spiritual well-being. Clinical staff should pay attention to the spiritual health of cancer patients, and spiritual care should be regarded as an essential element in cancer care.

ObjectivesCancer survival rates vary widely between European countries, with differences in timeliness of diagnosis thought to be one key reason. There is little evidence on the way in which different healthcare systems influence primary care practitioners’ (PCPs) referral decisions in patients who could have cancer.This study aimed to explore PCPs’ diagnostic actions (whether or not they perform a key diagnostic test and/or refer to a specialist) in patients with symptoms that could be due to cancer and how they vary across European countries.DesignA primary care survey. PCPs were given vignettes describing patients with symptoms that could indicate cancer and asked how they would manage these patients. The likelihood of taking immediate diagnostic action (a diagnostic test and/or referral) in the different participating countries was analysed. Comparisons between the likelihood of taking immediate diagnostic action and physician characteristics were calculated.SettingCentres in 20 European countries with widely varying cancer survival rates.ParticipantsA total of 2086 PCPs answered the survey question, with a median of 72 PCPs per country.ResultsPCPs’ likelihood of immediate diagnostic action at the first consultation varied from 50% to 82% between countries. PCPs who were more experienced were more likely to take immediate diagnostic action than their peers.ConclusionWhen given vignettes of patients with a low but significant possibility of cancer, more than half of PCPs across Europe would take diagnostic action, most often by ordering diagnostic tests. However, there are substantial between-country variations.
