Polio Alert!!! Get to know the symptoms, causes, treatment and prevention<\/a><\/h3>
Polio is a disease caused by a contagious viral infection. Exposure to this virus can trigger nerve injury which has a very high risk of causing paralysis, difficulty breathing, and can even lead to death. \n\n Even though children are very susceptible to this disease, this does not mean that adults are not at risk of being exposed to polio. Taking appropriate precautions can be an effective measure to avoid exposure to the virus that causes polio. \n\n Causes of Polio \n\n This disease is caused by the polio virus. Usually, transmission can occur through direct contact or consuming water and food that has been contaminated with feces containing the polio virus. Even though they have no symptoms, polio sufferers can still transmit the polio virus to other people. \n\n \n\n Polio Risk Factors \n\n People who have a very high risk of developing this disease are: \n\n \n People who live in remote areas have difficulty accessing clean running water, especially for toilets \n HIV Positive Pregnant Women \n Children who are not vaccinated \n \n\n For people who have never been vaccinated, the risk of contracting this disease will be higher if: \n\n \n Travel to an area where there has been a recent polio outbreak \n Living with or caring for someone with polio \n Work with virus specimens \n Have had a tonsillectomy \n \n\n \n\n Polio Symptoms \n\n The symptoms of polio are experienced differently by each sufferer. In fact, 95 to 99 percent of polio sufferers do not experience symptoms. Here are some symptoms of polio to watch out for: \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n Polio Symptoms of Non-Paralytic Type Polio \n\n \n Fever \n Painful Swallowing \n Headache \n Vomit \n Weak \n Meningitis \n \n\n \n\n Polio Symptoms of Paralysis Type Polio \n\n \n Loss of Reflexes \n Feet become droopy \n Paralysis that occurs suddenly can be temporary or permanent \n \n\n \n\n Polio Diagnosis \n\n The diagnosis of polio itself is made based on anamnesis, physical examination, and can be assisted by supporting examinations. In the history, the doctor will look for symptoms that appear, then through a physical examination the doctor will look for signs of disease such as stiff neck and abnormalities in reflexes. \n\n Supporting examinations through throat swabs, stool examination and central nervous system fluid analysis can also be carried out to look for the presence of the polio virus. \n\n \n\n Polio Treatment \n\n See a doctor as soon as possible. Currently there is no medicine that can treat polio. However, this disease can be overcome by carrying out several treatments according to doctor's recommendations, such as \n\n \n Giving medication reduces pain \n Antispamodic medication to relax muscles \n Antibiotics \n Physiotherapy \n \n\n \n\n Polio Prevention \n\n Prevention of polio is by vaccination. Polio vaccination itself has been discovered since 1957 and is one of the most effective prevention efforts. Vaccinations are given 3x and supplemented with 1x booster. Vaccinations need to be given to children at the ages of 2 months, 4 months, 6-18 months and boosters between the ages of 4-6 years. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Importance of Immunization for Children<\/a><\/h3>
Immunization goals \n\n prevent dangerous infectious diseases before they spread in the community. \n\n How do vaccines work? \n\n Immunization àof the body forms immunity àThe immune system will form specific immunity against certain diseases. \n\n In the future, if the child is infected with the disease, the child will not get sick because the immune system will immediately react quickly against the disease. \n\n Why should children be immunized? \n\n \n Immunization is a safe and effective way to prevent diseases that are widely circulating in the community. The benefits of immunization are enormous when compared to the very small risk of vaccine side effects. \n If enough people in a community are immunized, it won't take long for the infection to spread from person to person. \n Children who have been immunized if they get sick are generally mild. \n \n\n Why do children need to get so many immunizations? \n\n Several immunizations are needed in the early years of a child's life to prevent dangerous diseases. The more diseases that can be prevented, the higher the chances of a child living with a better quality of growth and development. \n\n The baby's immune system is immature. The baby's immune system cannot work as well as in older children or adults, so immunizations need to be repeated. \n\n Is immunization safe? \n\n Some children may experience mild vaccine side effects, occurring within 1-2 days after receiving immunization and recovering quickly without having to receive medication. \n\n The most common side effects are redness, swelling, pain at the injection site, and may be accompanied by low-grade fever or irritability. \n\n How to handle: \n\n \n Give more to drink \n Don't wear thick clothes \n If necessary, paracetamol can be given to reduce fever. \n \n\n It should be remembered that the currently available vaccines are very safe compared to if the child has to suffer from a disease that can be prevented by immunization. \n\n \n\n How long will immunization provide immunity? \n\n In general, immunization will produce immunity after 2 weeks of administration. This means that prevention of the disease is not immediately obtained after the child has received immunization. Some immunizations need to be repeated several times to get long-term prevention. \n\n \n\n What are the consequences if immunization is late? \n\n The immunization schedule has been prepared taking into account the exact time when a child must be protected against dangerous infectious diseases. If it is too late to give immunizations at the proper age, children will be vulnerable to disease transmission. \n\n For immunizations that must be given several times, the distance between the two immunizations is 4-8 weeks. If it is too far, the immunity that is formed is not optimal. \n\n Do late immunizations have to be repeated? \n\n If you realize that the immunization is late, immediately come to the health facility and ask for the missed immunization. \n\n Hermina's friend, \n\n Child immunization is the administration of vaccines to children to prevent transmission of certain diseases. Vaccines are substances that function to help form immunity or immunity against infection with a number of infectious diseases. \n\n \n\n Hermina Periuk Hospital Tangerang serves Immunization or Vaccination of Children. \n\n Information and registration contact: \n\n (021) 29432525 \n\n 0857-8268-2142 (WA) \n\n _ \n\n Stay healthy Hermina friends \n\n _ \n\n Enjoy the convenience of registration via: \n\n 1.

Causes and Risk Factors of Measles<\/a><\/h3>
Measles is a highly contagious disease that can be life threatening. Measles is caused by a virus and is easily preventable with immunisation. Measles is an airborne disease caused by a virus, and it’s very contagious. Symptoms may develop about eight to 12 days after you’re exposed. Symptoms can last 10 to 14 days. Measles is also called rubeola, 10-day measles or red measles. It’s not the same as German measles, or rubella. \n\n The symptoms of measles usually appear about 10 days after exposure to an infected person. The most characteristic symptom of measles is a blotchy red rash, but this is not usually the first symptom. Measles usually starts as a flu-like illness lasting for between 2 and 4 days with symptoms that include: \n\n \n Fever \n Tiredness \n Severe cough \n Red eyes (conjunctivitis) \n Runny nose \n White spots in the mouth (known as Koplik spots) \n \n\n On days 3 to 7 of the illness, the rash appears. It is usually red and blotchy, but not itchy. A measles rash generally starts at the head and then spreads down to the rest of the body. It usually lasts 4 – 7 days. Measles rash has red, slightly raised spots and may be blotchy but not itchy.. What are the possible health complications from measles? Anyone can get measles: children under 5 years old and adults over 20 years old are more likely to suffer complications from measles. \n\n \n Ear infections occur in about 1 in 10 children who catch measles. Permanent hearing loss is possible. \n Diarrhea occurs in about 1 in 10 people who catch measles. \n Pneumonia occurs in about 1 in 20 children who catch measles. Pneumonia is the most common cause of death from measles in young children. \n Encephalitis (swelling of the brain) occurs in about 1 in 1,000 children who catch measles. Encephalitis can lead to convulsions, deafness or intellectual disabilities. \n Death occurs in about 1 or 2 out of 1,000 children who catch measles. \n Pregnant women who catch measles are at risk of premature birth or have a low-birth-weight baby. \n People with compromised immune systems, such as from leukemia and HIV infection, may be especially at risk for measles complications. \n \n\n If your child has complaints that lead to measles, immediately consult a Pediatrician. To make it easier when you want to make an appointment with a doctor, make an online consultation appointment through the RSU Hermina Kemayoran website. \n\n Don't forget to get your child's vaccinations at Hermina Kemayoran General Hospital, too! \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Measles Cases Increase, Immediately Complete Your Child's Immunizations<\/a><\/h3>
The Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) stated that there were Extraordinary Events (KLB) of measles in Indonesia as of January 18, 2023 in 34 regencies and cities in 12 provinces. Do you know Hermina's Friends, Measles will be very dangerous if complications occur. The impact can cause severe diarrhea to death. Measles is highly contagious, even more so than COVID-19. Measles starts to spread even before the rash appears. Transmission of measles can be through the air, splashes of coughs, sneezes and through contact with sick people or contaminated surfaces.\n\nWhat is Measles?\n\nMeasles is a disease caused by a viral infection of the respiratory tract. Measles is contagious (infectious) and can cause serious complications in children if not treated as soon as possible. The main cause of measles is a viral infection from the Paramyxovirus family, such as rubeola and rubella. This viral infection can be transmitted by splashing the saliva of a measles patient.\n\nSymptoms of Measles\n\nHigh fever\nCough, runny nose and red eyes\nWhen the fever gets higher, around the 4th to 5th day, a reddish rash will appear\nIn the healing phase the rash will coalesce and become black and scaly\nThe child is not infected when the rash has turned black or approximately 4 days before and after the rash appears\nMeasles Danger Sign\n\nDehydration\nQuick breath\nChest wall depression\nHard to wake up\nCan't eat and drink\nLess urination (BAK).\nDischarge from the ear\nThere is yellow green pus/liquid in the eye\nHigh Risk of Measles Infection\n\nChildren < 5 years\nNot vaccines\nChronic disease/comorbidity\nLow immune system: cancer, autoimmune, taking immunosuppressive drugs (suppressing the body's immune system)\nMalnutrition\nIf the child is sick and the mother is pregnant, separate the children. Pregnant women are at high risk of experiencing severe measles complications and miscarriages, fetal death and growth retardation in the fetus may occur\n\n \n\n How to Prevent Measles?\n\nThe situation in Indonesia in the last 2 years or almost 3 years since the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has had bad implications for immunization coverage. When immunization coverage is low, vaccine-preventable diseases such as measles, diphtheria, polio, and mumps spread rapidly again. Prevention of measles can only be obtained from immunization, so immunization according to the schedule must be carried out so that children are protected from measles.\n\nIn Indonesia, measles vaccine doses are given according to the immunization schedule according to the recommendations of the Indonesian Pediatrician Association. This vaccine is given at 9 months of age, followed by booster doses at 18 months of age, and when the child is in elementary school (age 5–7 years).\n\n\n\nFathers and Mothers of Friends of Hermina, come on, complete your baby's immunizations at Hermina Bekasi Hospital with your favorite pediatrician.\n\n\n\nDownload the app Hello Hermina to make an appointment with specialist doctors at Hermina Bekasi Hospital.\n\n\n\nsources: IDAI and the Ministry of Health \n\n \n \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Importance of Childhood Immunization: Let Us Pursue Delayed Immunizations <\/a><\/h3>
Immunization is an effort to actively generate or increase a person's immunity against a disease so that if they are exposed to it one day, they will not get sick or only experience a mild illness. \n\n Vaccines are antigens in the form of microorganisms that are dead, still alive but weakened, still intact, or parts thereof, which have been processed into microorganism toxins that have been processed into toxoids, recombinant proteins, which, when given to a person, will cause active specific immunity against certain infectious diseases. There are 12 types of vaccine-preventable diseases (PD3I) in the national immunization program, namely: diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, tuberculosis, measles, rubella, poliomyelitis, hepatitis B, meningitis, pneumonia, Japanese encephalitis, and human papilloma virus. \n\n The goal of immunization in general is to reduce morbidity, disability, and death from diseases that can be prevented by immunization (PD3I). The specific goals are to achieve coverage of Complete Basic Immunization (IDL) in infants in accordance with the RPJMN target, to achieve Universal Child Immunization/UCI (minimum percentage of 80% of babies receiving IDL in a village/kelurahan) in all villages/kelurahans, to achieve the target of advanced immunization for children under two years old (baduta) and for elementary school-aged children and women of childbearing age (WUS), to achieve. \n\n Compulsory immunization is immunization that is required by the government for a person according to their needs in order to protect the person concerned and the surrounding community from certain infectious diseases. Compulsory immunization consists of routine immunization, additional immunization, and special immunization. \n\n Routine immunization is an immunization activity that is carried out continuously according to a schedule. Routine immunization includes both basic and follow-up immunization. Basic immunization includes vaccines against Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), Pentabio (DPT/Diphtheria Pertussis Tetanus, Hepatitis B, and Haemophilus influenzae types), Hepatitis B, Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV), Inactivated Polio Vaccine (IPV), and Measles. Follow-up immunization is repeated immunization to maintain the level of immunity or to extend the period of protection. This immunization is given to children under three years old (toddlers), elementary school-age children, and women of childbearing age. Follow-up immunizations include the DT, Td, and TT vaccines. \n\n Additional immunization is given to certain age groups who are most at risk of disease according to epidemiological studies at a certain time period. Additional immunization activities include fighting the backlog, the crash program, PIN (National Immunization Week), Sub-PIN, the catch-up campaign for measles, and immunization in handling outbreak immunity (ORI). \n\n Special immunization is an immunization activity carried out to protect the community against certain diseases in certain situations. Certain situations include preparations for the departure of prospective Hajj and Umrah pilgrims, preparations for travel to certain disease-endemic countries, and conditions of extraordinary events. Specific types of immunization, among others, consist of meningitis vaccination, meningococcal vaccination, yellow fever vaccination, and anti-rabies vaccination. \n\n Selective immunizations are immunizations that can be given to someone according to their needs in order to protect them from certain infectious diseases, namely the MMR, Hib, Typhoid, Varicella, Hepatitis A, Influenza, Pneumococcal, Rotavirus, Japanese Encephalitis, and HPV vaccines. \n\n To ensure long-term protection, immunize children as soon as possible and complete them according to schedule and age category. \n\n Friends of Hermina who wish to obtain child vaccine services at Hermina Arcamanik Hospital should consult the service schedule or call the call center at 1500-488 or 896-7270-1027. \n\n Download the Hermina Mobile Apps application to facilitate health access and registration at Hermina Arcamanik Hospital. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

There is no medicine to cure polio<\/a><\/h3>
The government, through the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, established polio extraordinary event (KLB) status on November 19, 2022, after a polio case was found in a 7-year-old child who had never received polio immunization in Pidie District, Aceh. There have been three polio patients discovered there as of today (November 22, 2022) (Detikhealth). \n\n Dr. Piprim Basarah Yanuarso, SpA (K), Chairman of the IDAI (Indonesian Pediatrician Association), stated that it is not impossible that the virus will spread to many other provinces, as happened in 2005, when polio cases were discovered not only in Cidahu, Sukabumi, and West Java but also in several other provinces. \n\n In 2014, Indonesia was declared free from polio thanks to the success of the immunization program. However, immunization coverage continues to decline, especially during the pandemic, which is the reason for the reappearance of outbreaks (extraordinary events). \n\n Polio (poliomyelitis) is a highly contagious disease caused by a viral infection. The poliovirus belongs to the human enterovirus group, which replicates in the intestine and is excreted in the feces. Polio attacks the nervous system and can cause complete paralysis. Polio is commonly experienced by children, but that does not mean that adults are not at risk of being exposed to polio, so proper prevention is an effective measure to avoid exposure to the virus that causes polio. \n\n Polio is spread from person to person via fekal-oral (dari tinja penderita) or, more recently, via air or food, which is contaminated and grows rapidly. It is possible to grow all of your hair, especially if you are under the age of five. The incubation period for the polio virus is 3-6 days, and the recovery period is 7–21 days. Most people (90%) do not have a disease or have a severe disease that cannot be diagnosed. In other cases, the initial symptoms are demam, lelah, nyeri kepala, muntah, kaku kuduk, and nyeri pada anggota tubuh. One of the 200 events causes irreversible growth. 5–10% of the population suffers as a result of lumpuh pernafasan. \n\n Polio can only be eradicated through vaccination, the most effective method of prevention (vaccination as soon as possible after birth), and healthy living (PHBS). There is no cure for polio, but it can be treated by following some guidelines from your doctor, such as taking bed rest, getting antispasmodics to make you feel better, and getting antibiotics. \n\n If you have signs or symptoms of polio and are not sure if you have ever gotten a vaccine, you should immediately go to the doctor to ask about the disease you are suffering from. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Be alert and recognize polio! and the Importance of Immunization for Children's Health<\/a><\/h3>
\n\n Hermina's Friends: As we all know, Indonesia was shocked some time ago by an incident of polio in a district in Aceh in early November 2022. even though Indonesia has been free of polio for a long time. Why is this happening? \n\n \n\n Previously, we needed to understand first: what is polio? \n\n Polio is a disease caused by a virus. It is very dangerous because it can cause sudden paralysis that cannot be cured. The sufferer will experience permanent paralysis, with the main symptom being withered paralysis. \n\n \n\n Polio Transmission \n\n Polio transmission is fecal-oral, so polio patients' feces contaminate food, which is then consumed by others. As a result, polio transmission is also linked to healthy living habits. \n\n \n\n Symptoms to watch out for \n\n If a child is infected with polio, there will be an incubation period of around 3–6 days, and symptoms that appear include: fever, vomiting, headache, or stiffness in the neck. After the incubation period, the child will suddenly experience paralysis that cannot be cured. In other words, the child will be disabled for the rest of his life. \n\n What should parents do to protect their children from this dangerous polio disease? \n\n Adopt a clean and healthy lifestyle, such as washing your hands thoroughly with soap and keeping your body and the environment clean. In addition, use clean latrines and do not defecate in random places. Immunization against polio is also critical. \n\n \n\n Polio immunization has been shown to be effective in preventing polio. Polio immunization aims to trigger the body's immunity so that the body can be protected from polio infection. The government has also established polio immunization as a mandatory immunization. \n\n When is the polio vaccination schedule? \n\n According to the Ministry of Health, the polio immunization schedule is given four times for children under 1 year old. starting at the age of 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, and 4 months. And the administration says polio drops as much as two times at the ages of 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, and 4 months. But at the age of 4 months, it will be accompanied by an injection of polio. \n\n \n\n What if polio immunization is missed? Can it still be chased? \n\n Not a few parents missed their children's immunization schedule during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, parents need to know that immunization is very important for children's health. so that children can avoid dangerous diseases that can be prevented by administering vaccines or immunizations, including polio. \n\n \n\n The term "catch-up immunization" refers to efforts to catch up on delays in giving immunizations to children. Polio immunization, for example, can be caught up on once missed.So, there is no more reason not to immunize children. \n\n \n\n Polio transmission is heavily influenced by a clean and healthy lifestyle, as well as immunization, according to Hermina's friends.Immediately see your favorite pediatrician to catch up on immunizations, including polio. \n\n \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Exposed to Measles? How does the measles virus cause disease?<\/a><\/h3>
Measles is an acute viral infection caused by Paramyxovirus. Transmission of the disease happens by airborne. As an infectious disease, measles may cause serious health problems for babies, pregnant women, and immunocompromised people. \n\n In developing countries, measles is still a serious health threat for people from all age; especially to children under five years old. Examples of serious complications which may occur including: \n\n \n Diarrhea with profuse vomiting that may cause dehydration. \n Infection of lower respiratory tract (pneumonia) which is the complication with the highest fatality rate. \n Infection of the middle ear which may cause hearing impairment. \n Vitamin A deficiency which may cause eye disorder. \n Infection of the brain that may cause death. \n Subacute Sclerosis Panencephalitis (SSPE) - a neurological disorder that affect the central nervous system - caused by measles infection during childhood. \n \n\n To pregnant women, measles may cause labor before due date so that the infant will have low birth weight. \n\n Symptoms of measles infection are high fever, coughing, red & inflamed eyes, and red blotchy skin rashes that may cover every part of the body. These symptoms usually occur after 10 to 12 days after measles virus infection. \n\n After 10 to 12 days of infection, the first symptom that appears is a high fever (body temperature > 38.0° C) that may persists for 2 to 5 days. During this fever, other symptoms such as coughing and red & inflamed eye may also occur. Clinician may also find Koplik's Spots which is a diagnostic feature of measles. Koplik's Spots is a small white spot on a reddened background that can be found on the inside of the cheeks, but it may only be found during one or two days before skin rash occurs & usually disappears in 12 to 18 hours. \n\n During the fourth or fifth day of fever; the fever will reach its peak; and will be followed with the appearance of red blotchy skin rashes. These skin rashes will appear first on the area behind the ears; then they will spread to the neck, face, then to every part of the body surface. These skin rashes may persist for three days, then they will subside gradually in order of the onset of these skin rashes. \n\n Measles without complication can be treated as an outpatient care. Medications will be prescribed according to each case's symptoms. To facilitate faster recovery; patients are advised to have sufficient meal & drinks and ample rest. Children with measles may also take a bath or shower to clean themselves. For children with measles, they will also be given Vitamin A suplement with doses according to their ages. To prevent transmission to other people; patients with measles are advised to undergo quarantined for at least for days since skin rashes occur or until their symptoms subside. \n\n For measles with complications; patients are advised to be admitted in a hospital to receive further treatment. Examples of high-alert signs form measles with complications are: \n\n \n Loss of consciousness and seizures \n Coughing with difficulty breathing \n Dehydration caused by frequent diarrhea \n Weight loss and malnutrition \n Ear disorder due to infection \n Dry eye wih vision impairment \n \n\n To prevent measles, children are recommended to get measles vaccine. The vaccination can start to be administered to children around nine months of age. If your child has mild symptoms of kidney disease, consult to your doctor immediately to get relevant advice regarding the possibility of early preventive treatment. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Have Difficulty Urinating? Understanding Urinary Retention<\/a><\/h3>
Urinary retention is the loss or reduced ability to empty the bladder completely. This situation is part of the lower urinary tract / lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). \n\n In general, urinary retention is divided into 2 conditions, which are acute urinary retention and chronic urinary retention \n\n \n Acute Urinary Retention \n \n\n \n Usually accompanied by pain \n Can't urinate at all \n Full bladder \n Happened suddenly \n Including emergencies in urology \n \n\n 2. Chronic Urinary Retention \n\n \n Can be painless \n Can still urinate, but not facile \n Inability to completely empty the bladder (incomplete) \n Difficulty starting to urinate (hesitancy) \n Not life threatening, but can cause complications \n \n\n The causes of urinary retention can be distinguished based on their etiology: \n\n \n Supravesika: motor and sensory nerve innervation disorders due to neurological diseases such as stroke, HNP etc \n Vesica: bladder detrusor muscle weakness, antimuscarinic/ anticholinergic drugs (low bladder pressure) \n Infravesika: bladder outlet obstruction (BPH, urethral stricture, meatal stenosis, urethral edema, urethral masses, urethral stones, pelvic organ prolapse), increased urethral resistance, detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia (DSD), \n \n\n Immediate treatment in cases of acute urinary retention is to decompress the bladder using urethral catheterization, suprapubic puncture or suprapubic catheterization (cystostomy). In most cases, clinicians prefer to insert a urethral catheter and only perform a suprapubic puncture or cystostomy if the urethral catheter failed. Suprapubic catheterization is frequently associated with the incidence of haematuria and catheter obstruction than urinary catheters. \n\n In a study by Horgan et al, it was reported that the incidence of urinary tract infection (UTI) was lower with suprapubic catheterization than with urethral catheterization (18% vs. 40%; p<0.05) and less incidence of urethral stricture at 3-year follow-up ( 0% vs 17%; p<0.01) (Fitz; yoon). Insertion of a suprapubic catheter also carries several risks, a 2.5% chance of intestinal injury and a 1.8% risk of 30-day mortality. Therefore, The British Association of Urological Surgeons recommends insertion of an imaging-assisted suprapubic catheter (USG). \n\n Before consulting with an Urologist, it is better to record the complaints what you are experiencing. Remembering what you were doing before the complaint was felt, whether you had an injury or not. In addition, collect a complete medical history, including any medical history or medical history. This is useful for doctors to diagnose what diseases you are experiencing. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>"); $('#div_next_link').html(" <\/a><\/span>");
