Presently, no clear picture is available about the facilities providing clinical services for persons who stutter (PWS) in Kuwait. This information is crucial for any awareness program to be established in the future. The purpose of this study was to identify clinical facilities and speech-language personnel that provide services for PWS in Kuwait. Participants consisted of 21 clinical directors of governmental medical centers, non-profit clinics, and private clinics as well as department heads of governmental school clinics where speech-language services were provided. Participants were interviewed regarding the availability of speech-language services within their centers and whether or not PWS receive services. The results revealed that four out of five governmental medical centers with a total of 32 speech-language pathologists (SLPs) provided services for PWS. Additionally, 12 schools of special education were found to have 62 SLPs on their staff providing fluency services for students. Finally, two stand-alone private clinics and one non-profit clinic provided services for PWS. Results indicated an overall shortage of SLPs in the country, especially in medical settings. This study sets the foundation for a series of future studies investigating the type and quality of stuttering services provided by the identified facilities in Kuwait.

Tajam penglihatan adalah daya lihat yang mampu dilakukan seseorang. Tajam penglihatan normal adalah apabila seseorang dapat melihat huruf, angka, maupun bentuk dalam berbagai macam ukuran pada kartu Snellen dengan jarak 20 kaki (20/20). Katarak merupakan salah satu penyebab terjadinya gangguan penglihatan terbanyak kedua setelah gangguan refraksi yang tidak terkoreksi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi timbulnya low vision setelah operasi bedah katarak di Rumah Sakit Muhammadiyah Palembang. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian deskriptif kuantitatif dengan pendekatan cross sectional menggunakan data rekam medis pasien yang sudah menjalani operasi katarak di Rumah Sakit Muhammadiyah Palembang periode Januari 2017-April 2018. Besar sampel penelitian ini adalah 31 orang. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pada kontrol keempat pasca operasi, ada 38,7% subjek yang tetap memiliki low vision. Subjek penelitian sebagian besar terdiri dari individu lansia akhir (74,2%), terdapat 2 orang subjek yang mengalami komplikasi intra operasi (6,4%), dan terdapat 9 orang subjek yang mengalami komplikasi pasca operasi (29,1%). Timbulnya lowvision setelah operasi katarak tidak dipengaruhi oleh usia (p = 1,000) dan komplikasi intraoperasi (p = 1,000), namun dipengaruhi oleh adanya komplikasi pasca operasi (p = 0,043). Faktor risiko timbulnya lowvision pasca operasi katarak adalah adanya komplikasi pasca operasi. Oleh karena itu, perlu upaya pencegahan dari berbagai sisi agar tidak terjadi komplikasi pasca operasi katarak.
