Background: Background: An investigational pharmacy is responsible for all tasks related to receiving, storing, and dispensing of any investigational drugs. Traditional methods of inventory and protocol tracking on paper binders are very tedious and could be error-prone. Objective: To evaluate the utilization of the IDS to efficiently manage the inventory within an investigational Pharmacy. We hypothesize that the IDS will reduce the drug processing time. Methods: Our pharmacy tracked the drug processing time before and after using the IDS including the receiving, dispensing, and inventory. As part of the receiving the study drug pharmacists tracked the time it took a pharmacist to complete the tasks of logging the study drug before and after the implementation of the IDS system. In addition, the pharmacy also timed the process for drug dispensing and a full investigational drug inventory check. Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare the difference in the meantime of total processing before and after the IDS. Results: Utilization of the IDS system showed significant reduction in processing time, and improvement of efficiency in inventory management. Additionally, the usability survey of the IDS demonstrated that the IDS system helped pharmacists capture data consistently across every clinical trial. Conclusion: Our results demonstrates how technology helps pharmacists to focus on their actual day to day medication-related tasks rather than worrying about other operational aspects. Informatics team continues to further enhance the features such as monitor portal, and features related to finance – generation of invoices, billing reconciliation, etc.

Background. Although uremic pruritus is a common and upsetting problem of chronic kidney disease, there is no approved treatment for it. This study was undertaken to find the efficiency of sertraline as a possible treatment for uremic pruritus.Methods. 19 ESRD patients under hemodialysis with severe chronic pruritus were randomly selected to participate in this before-after clinical trial. Before and after starting treatment with sertraline, a detailed pruritus history was obtained and pruritus graded by the 30-item inventory of pruritus that patients based on priorities grade allocated to 3 classes. Subjects were treated with sertraline 50 mg oral daily for four months, with monthly assessments of pruritus symptoms.Results. Before treatment with sertraline, the grade of pruritus in 9 (47.4%) patients was moderate and severe in 10 (52.6%) patients. After treatment, grade of pruritus in 11 (57.8%) patients was weak, 6 (31.5%) have moderate and only 2 (10.7%) patients have severe pruritus. Of 10 patients with severe pruritus, 5 (50%) patients experiencing weak pruritus, and 4 (40%) patients have moderate pruritus after treatment. Based on Wilcoxon signed-rank test, the difference between the grade of pruritus before and after treatment with sertraline was significant (P=0.001).Conclusions. Although no definitive recommendation can be made regarding treatment of uremic pruritus, we found an increased antipruritic effect of sertraline in ESRD patients.

Abstract Background: We assessed the accuracy and tendency of the VERION image-guided system (Alcon) and the intra-ocular lens (IOL) Master 700 (Zeiss), by comparing mean refractive shift (MRS) of predicted post-operative refraction (PPR), mean absolute error (MAE) of PPR, recommended IOL power (RIP) and K-value before and after optimizing the IOL-constant in VERION, to show the importance of optimization.Methods: This retrospective study involved 72 eyes. K-value was measured with both biometers. Axial length (AL) and anterior chamber depth (ACD) measured by the IOL Master were applied to the VERION because it cannot measure these variables. The User group for Laser Interference Biometry (ULIB) IOL-constant for the IOL Master was applied to the VERION before optimizing the IOL constant, since no such official measure was established for it. MRS of PPR, MAE of PPR, RIP and K-value as measured by both biometers were compared before and after optimizing the IOL-constant in the VERION. Finally, correlations between the MRS, MAE, RIP, and K-value were analyzed in the VERION. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for analysis.Results: Compared to the IOL Master, K-value was significantly higher in the VERION. Prior to optimization, MRS of PPR showed a significant myopic shift in the VERION, and MAE of PPR was significantly higher. Additionally, RIP in the VERION was significantly lower. After optimization, there were no significant differences in the MRS of PPR and RIP between the VERION and IOL Master. MAE of PPR in the IOL Master was significantly higher than in the VERION. No significant correlations were found between MRS and MAE of PPR and RIP with K-value in the VERION. Conclusions: Before optimization, the VERION was less reliable in MRS, MAE and RIP than the IOL Master. However, after optimization, the difference in MRS and RIP between the two devices became insignificant. This study indicates that optimization of IOL-constant in the VERION is vital. After optimization, the VERION is more accurate in PPR than the IOL Master.

Perineals pain affects woman ability to mobilize so that it can cause complications such as post-partum haemoragik. Trauma to the perineum also cause discomfort and dyspareunia, therefore, perineal pain management is important. Currently the handling used to relieve pain is complementary therapy aromatherapy with essential oils of lavender, because lavender has the properties of anticonvulsant, antidepressant, anxiolytic, and also soothing. Aromatherapy stimulates the hypothalamus to secrete chemical mediators that serve as pain relievers and give rise to feelings of happiness. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of lavender aromatherapy to the perineal pain intensity in post partum women. This study is a quasy experiment pre and post non random control in postpartum women at Bidan Praktik Mandiri in Bandung. Sampling this study using consecutive sampling technique. The data taken using the instrument in the adaptation of a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and analyzed by using the wilcoxon signed rank test. The result is there was a decrease in pain intensity before and after the administration of inhaled lavender aromatherapy (Z=-3.77) with p-value 0.001. Lavender aromatherapy can be a complementary alternative therapy to reduce pain in postpartum women but more research necessary is needed with more respondents.

ABSTRACT: Modification of threshold exemption from import duties was tested whether changing consumer preferences in shopping from abroad. This study uses a paired test with the initial hypothesis that there is no difference in the daily average value of imports before and after the policy is applied. The research data is only from the Customs offices which have services for shipment items (32 offices) on October 1, 2019, to March 2, 2020. Descriptive statistical results show that the average was USD135,065, then dropped to USD127,430. Based on the results, both the Paired Sample T Test and The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test obtained a p-value of 0,000, meaning that the initial hypothesis was rejected. The adoption of this policy has changed the preferences of consumers shopping from abroad. The Government's aim to reduce the trade balance deficit and protect domestic businesses appears to be successful, however, if there are no substitute goods available in the country, the import will only move from importing consignment goods to general imports. The novelty is the variable of import duty on shopping preferences is not widely used. The limitation of this study only measures changes in spending preferences, do not in state revenue.Keywords: shopping preference, consignment, tax exemption, difference test ABSTRAK:Perubahan kebijakan batas pembebasan terhadap bea masuk dan pajak atas impor barang kiriman diuji apakah merubah preferensi konsumen dalam berbelanja barang yang dikirim langsung dari luar negeri melalui mekanisme impor barang kiriman. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif melalui uji berpasangan dengan hipotesis awal tidak adanya perbedaan nilai rerata impor harian baik sebelum maupun setelah kebijakan berlaku. Data penelitian hanya kantor-kantor Bea Cukai yang memiliki pelayanan atas barang kiriman (32 kantor) pada 1 Oktober 2019 sampai dengan 2 Maret 2020. Hasil statistik deskriptif menunjukkan bahwa rerata harian impor sebelum kebijakan tersebut berlaku sebesar USD135.065, kemudian turun menjadi USD127.430. Berdasarkan pengujian, baik pada Paired Sampel T Test maupun pada Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test diperoleh nilai p sebesar 0.000 (hipotesis awal ditolak). Hal ini berarti penerapan kebijakan tersebut telah merubah preferensi belanja dari luar negeri melalui impor barang kiriman. Tujuan Pemerintah untuk mengurangi defisit neraca perdagangan dan melindungi usaha dalam negeri tampaknya berhasil, namun apabila belum tersedia barang subtitusi di dalam negeri, importasi tersebut hanya akan berpindah dari impor barang kiriman menjadi impor umum. Keterbaruan pada penelitian ini adalah variabel bea masuk pada preferensi belanja belum banyak digunakan. Keterbatasan penelitian ini hanya mengukur perubahan preferensi belanja, tidak mengukur perubahan penerimaan negara.Kata Kunci: preferensi belanja, impor barang kiriman, pembebasan pajak, uji beda
