Pediatric patients are among the recipients of most antibiotic treatment in hospitals so as to induce irrational use of antibiotics. This study aims to monitor the use of antibiotics in pediatric using ATC/DDD methods and DU 90%. This study is a descriptive study with a retrospective study by taking data from medical records to assess the use of antibiotics in pediatric patients with various diseases in the hospital. Quantitative data analysis using ATC/DDD methods showed that the widely used antibiotic was ceftriaxone 16,93% DDD. Antibiotics that include into the DU segment 90% use in the order of the largest to the smallest, respectively are ceftriaxone, metronidazole, cefotaxime, gentamycin, polymyxin B, colistin, cotrimoxazole, cefuroxime, and meropenem. The prescribing effect of short-term antibiotic use in basic medical services may increase the incidence of resistance.

Abstract. In order to control Antibacterial Resistance at the hospital in Indonesia, the Government of Indonesia established an Antibiotics Resistance Control Committee and issued a Regulation from the Ministry of Health, regulation no 8/2015 on an antibiotics resistance control program at the hospital. This is an investigation on the Antibacterial Resistance Control Program (ARCP) at the Hospital, which compares its implementation at a government hospital and a private hospital, Persahabatan Central General Hospital (CGH) and Bogor Indonesian Red Cross Hospital (BIRCH). This was a descriptive study with a qualitative analysis obtained through indepth interviews and documentary research. We discovered that the ARCP was implemented better at Persahabatan CGH compared to BIRCH. Problems include ineffective communication, limited resources, lack of an antibiotic guideline (at BIRCH), lack of coordination between organizations, lack of supervision from the government, and the lack of motivation to implement the policy. These issues can be solved by intensifying the socialization of the policy, conducting more workshops and trainings for private and government hospitals that has not received any, providing an incentive for them to implement the program, such as including ARC into hospital accreditation indicators, and clarifying the benefits of the program to the stakeholders. Abstrak.

Introduction: Ileostomy is needed as an important part of the management of several congenital disorders of the intestine. One of the indication of ileostomy in children is short bowel syndrome, which is caused by intestinal atresia such as ileal atresia and intussusception. Ileostomy is a surgery procedure which consists of creating holes on abdominal walls to release stool. The objective of this study was to determine the description of pediatric patients who underwent ileostomy in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya. Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study on medical records in the Central Medical Record Department of Pediatrics and General Surgery Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya from January 2017 to December 2018. Results: There were 26 pediatric patients who underwent ileostomy in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya. Samples from male patients consisted of 57.7%, while female patients consisted of 42.3% with the most common age group was neonates with 57.7%, infants 30.8%, and toddlers 11.5%. There were 30.7% patients with 2.0-2.9 kg body weight, 27% with 3.0-3.9 kg body weight, and 42.3% with more than 4 kg body weight. The outcome showed that repair was needed, or the patient was discharged with periodic follow-up after ileostomy. Conclusion: Ileostomy was performed mostly in neonates with average weight within normal body mass index (BMI) and the highest incidence of pediatric patient with ileum stoma was in pediatric patients.

Typhoid is a global health problem especially in developing countries, one of which is in Indonesia. The incidence of antibiotic resistance in typhoid therapy can occur due to inappropriate use of antibiotics. This study aims to determine patterns of antibiotic use as well as the quality and quantity of antibiotic use in typhoid therapy in one of the provincial government hospitals in Bali. This study was an observational study conducted retrospectively which was analyzed using the Gyssens and ATC/DDD methods. The research data were taken from the medical records of patients in the January-December 2019 period that met the inclusion criteria. The results showed that of the 40 total antibiotics prescribing, ceftriaxone was the most widely used antibiotic for typhoid therapy. The quality of antibiotic use as much as 40% is stated rational (category 0), while the other 60% is irrational (categories I-VI) which includes the use of antibiotics with incorrect interval of administration (IIB; 5%), the use of antibiotics that is too long (IIIA; 40%), the use of antibiotics that are too short (IIIB; 5%), there are other antibiotics that are more effective (IVA; 5%), and there are other antibiotics that are less toxic/safer (IVB; 5%). The quantity of antibiotic use was stated more than WHO standards which includes the use of ceftriaxone at 83.80 DDD/100 patient days; levofloxacin at 27.47 DDD/100 patient days; and azithromycin at 3.52 DDD/100 patient days. The results of this study are expected to be a consideration for the hospital as a material for evaluation and improvement in order to improve the rationality of antibiotic use.

Abstract Objectives Amblyopia is a decrease of visual acuity that cannot be attributed to any structural abnormality of the eye or visual system, causing a partial or complete loss of vision due to inadequate stimulation in early life. Citicoline has been reported to improve visual acuity in amblyopic eyes as adjuvant treatment. This study was aimed to determine the effectiveness of citicoline in pediatric patients with refractive amblyopia in ophthalmology daily practices. Methods This was a retrospective–descriptive study with a time limited sampling method. This study was conducted at Surabaya Eye Clinic, East Java, Indonesia, by reviewing medical records for the period of January 2018 to December 2019. Results A total of 34 eyes were included in the study with the majority aged five years (41.2%) and six years (35.3%). The severity of amblyopia varied among patients, 21 eyes (61.76%) had mild amblyopia, seven eyes (20.59%) had moderate amblyopia, and two eyes (5.88%) had severe amblyopia. The duration of given therapy also varied, 18 eyes (52.94%) were given 3 months therapy, two eyes were given 4 months therapy, 12 eyes were given 6 months therapy, and two eyes were given 8 months therapy. Citicoline was found effective in mild and moderate amblyopia and for the duration of 3 and 6 months (p<0.05). In others group who did not showed statistically significant improvement was due to inadequate samples but clinically significant improvement was noted. Conclusions Citicoline therapy resulted in a clinically and statistically improvement in refractive amblyopia patients.

Background Antibiotics are among the most commonly prescribed drug for pediatric patients. Inappropriate use of antibiotics can increase morbidity, mortality, patient cost and bacterial antibiotic resistence. Antibiotic uses can be evaluated quantitatively and qualitatively.Objective To qualitatively evaluate antibiotic use in patients using Gyssens algorithm.Methods We performed a descriptive, retrospective study of matient medical records of those admitted to the pediatric ward from January 1 – June 30, 2009. Records were screened for patient antibiotic use, followed by qualitative evaluation using Gyssens algorithm on data from patient who received antibiotic treatment.Results We found 49.2% of subject were prescribed antibiotics. The majority of patients given antibiotics were aged 1 month - 1 year (39.3%). Antibiotic use was categorized by therapy type : empirical, prophylactic, or definitive. We found empirical therapy in 73% of cases, prophylactic in 8%, and definitive in 15%. Cefotaxime was the most common antibiotic used (25.1%), followed by ceftazidime (14%) and cotrimoxazole (1%). 39.6% of subjects were given antibiotics appropriately, while 48.3% were given inappropriately. In 3.3% of patients, antibiotics were given without indication and in 8.8% there was insufficient data.Conclusions Of hospitalized patients receiving antibiotic treatment at the Departement of Child Health, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, 39.6% were given antibiotic appropriately, while 48.3% were given antibiotics inappropriately. Cefotaxime was the most commonly used, as well as most inappropriately given antibiotic.

Scabies is a parasitic infestation of the skin, that is affecting on the low income and crowded community in many tropical countries, especially developing countries such as Indonesia. Scabies infestation increases the incidence of secondary pyoderma include impetigo, folliculitis, cellulitis, ecthyma, abscess. Secondary pyoderma is a skin infection disease mainly caused by     group A Streptococcus (GAS) and Staphylococcus aureus (SA). Pyoderma is a risk factor for the glomerulonephritis infection, rheumatic diseases, which significantly increases morbidity and mortality, causing the government burden. The aim of this study is  determining the etiology and correlation of pyoderma infection in scabies patient. To determine sosio-demographic included sex, age in pediatric patients in primary schools (SD) in the district of Kertapati Palembang. The study design was cross sectional, and study samples were new scabies patients in the elementary school (age 6-14-year-old) with or without pyoderma. Clinical findings included history, physical examination and diagnostic procedure, which was investigation of skin scraping specimen material (SSB = skin surface biopsy) in confirmation with dermoscopic polar examination (DS) to show Sarcoptes scabiei mites. Microbiological examination with Gram stain identified the etiology of pyoderma.  Results of this study shows that there was a significance relationship between scabies infestation and pyoderma in children in elementary school. Staphylococcus aureus dan GAS are the most common caused of pyoderma in pediatric patients with scabies. Conclusion is there is a significant correlation between scabies and pyoderma. There is  a need to provide scabies and pyoderma medication at primary care health center as well as counseling for prevention in Palembang area with crowded population periodically.
