    ABSTRACT
    Background: Decreased oxygen supply due to acute physiological deterioration may increase mortality risk, particularly in critically ill patients with inadequacy to compensate such changes. The aim of the study was to evaluate peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) at admission in predicting mortality of emergency patients with critical conditions at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (CMH), the national referral hospital in Indonesia. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of emergency patients with critical conditions at Emergency department (ED), CMH from October to November 2012. SpO2 was meassured within 15 minutes after patients’ arrivals. Subjects were divided into two groups: group 1 consisted of subjects with SPO2 more or equal to 95% and subjects with SpO2 less than 95% were in group 2. Primary outcome measured was in-hospital mortality. Log-rank test was used to analyze survival between groups. Risk of in-hospital mortality was analyzed with Cox proportional hazard model.
    Results: In-hospital mortality rate was observed in 69 (40.1%) from 172 patients. Patients with SpO2 less than 95% had a significantly lower survival rate (mean survival 21.3 vs 28.6 days, log-rank p = 0.011). The hazard ratio of mortality was 1.8 (95% CI 1.13 to 2.90) in patients whose SpO2 fell below 95%.
    Conclusions: Peripheral oxygen saturation below 95% at admission was significantly associated with increased risk of in-hospital mortality. Given the ease of its measurement, SpO2 should be considered as a predictor of mortality in emergency patients with critical conditions.

    PENDAHULUAN
    Perawatan paliatif adalah pendekatan medis yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kualitas hidup pasien dan keluarga yang sedang menghadapi penyakit yang mengancam nyawa melalui pencegahan dan mengurangi penderitaan dengan identifikasi dini, penilaian masalah yang tepat, serta pengelolaan nyeri dan masalah fisik lain, psikososial, dan spiritual.1 Pelayanan ini dimulai ketika pasien terdiagnosis dan diberikan bersamaan dengan terapi spesifik.2
    Konsensus American Thoracic Society (ATS) mendefinisikan dispnea sebagai
    pengalaman subjektif berupa rasa tidak nyaman yang terdiri atas sensasi kualitatif yang bervariasi intensitasnya. Dispnea adalah salah satu dari gejala yang paling sering dijumpai pada pasien dengan kanker paru stadium lanjut, fibrosis kistik, fibrosis interstisialis, maupun penyakit paru obstruktif kronis (PPOK) yang mengakibatkan hendaya dan relatif sulit diatasi. 2,4
    Makalah ini akan membahas mengenai penggunaan opioid sebagai salah satu cara untuk mengurangi dispnea pada pasien paliatif terutama pasien yang refrakter terhadap terapi primer. Meskipun banyak klinisi yang mempertimbangkan mengenai keamanan penggunaan opioid pada pasien karena efek depresi pernapasan yang dapat terjadi, penggunaan opioid secara tepat relatif aman.5-7

    ABSTRACT
    Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is a leading cause of death worldwide alongside with HIV. Globally, there were an estimated 9.6 million new TB cases and 1.5 million deaths from TB in 2014. Tuberculosis-destroyed lung is a complication of severe pulmonary tuberculosis that can causes various respiratory symptoms and pulmonary dysfunction. Destroyed lung can seriously compromises long-term survival, so it is imperative to do the surgery. Objective: to determine the chance of survival in patients with tuberculosis-destroyed lung who underwent pulmonary resection.
    Method: Literature searching on PubMed, Cochrane Library, ProQuest, EBSCOHost, Science Direct and ClinicalKey was conducted on March 15th, 2016. Three articles were included to be appraised for its validity and relevance using several aspect based on Center of Evidence-Based Medicine, University of Oxford for prognostic study. Result: Study by Byun CS. et al showed operative mortality of 6.8%, SE 2.9%, 95% CI (3.9% to 9.7%). The post- operative mortality rate in 5 years is 11.1%, SE 3.7%, 95% CI (7.4% to 14.8%) and 23.8%, SE 5%, 95% CI (18.8% to
    28.8%) in 10 years. Rifaat A. et al revealed post-operative mortality rate of 7.1%, SE 6.8%, 95% CI (0% to 20.3%). Bai
    L. et al presented post-operative mortality rate of 5.8%, SE 1.8%, 95% CI (4% to 7.6%).
    Conclusion: Pulmonary resection for tuberculosis-destroyed lung patients can be achieved with low overall mortality rate (operative and post-operative).

    PENDAHULUAN
    Hemoptisis atau batuk darah merupakan gejala yang tidak jarang ditemukan pada praktek sehari-hari dan berpotensi menyebabkan kematian. Kasus hemoptisis ini bervariasi, dapat berupa batuk darah yang self limiting sampai ke hemoptisis masif yang mengancam nyawa. Mortalitas dari hemoptisis masif ini berkisar antara 50%, dengan prevalensi sekitar 5% dari seluruh kasus hemoptisis.1 Sedangkan mortalitas dari hemoptisis itu sendiri antara 7-30%.2 Kematian pada hemoptisis dapat terjadi akibat banyaknya darah pada saluran pernafasan sehingga menyebabkan asfiksia dan diikuti oleh gagal sistem kardiovaskular. Di Indonesia, prevalensi hemoptisis pada pasien rawat inap di RSP tahun 2007 dan 2008 sebesar 30.99% dan 34.68%.3 Etiologi dari hemoptisis ini beragam, di antaranya adalah penyakit parenkimal, penyakit saluran nafas, dan penyakit vaskuler. Namun dari beberapa penelitian, 3-42% pasien dengan hemoptisis etiologinya tidak dapat diketahui dan dapat disebut sebagai kriptogenik.3 Pasien dengan hemoptisis masif sebaiknya selalu dianggap kondisi yang mengancam nyawa yang memerlukan terapi yang cepat, tepat, dan efektif. Pada makalah ini, akan dibahas mengenai diagnosis dan tatalaksana dari hemoptisis non masif dan hemoptisis masif.

  • Aplikasi Radiografi dalam Bidang Respirologi
    Vol 3 No 1 (2016)

    PENDAHULUAN
    Foto toraks merupakan pemeriksaan yang umum dilakukan dalam mendiagnosis penyakit. Rontgen toraks dapat membuat gambaran dari hati, paru-paru, saluran pernafasan, pembuluh darah, dan tulang-tulang pada tulang belakang dan dada. Rontgen merupakan tes kesehatan non-invasif yang dapat membantu para dokter dalam menegakkan diagnosis dan memberikan terapi. Pencitraan dengan sinar-x melibatkan tereksposnya bagian tubuh, dengan dosis kecil radiasi pengion untuk menghasilkan gambar bagian dalam tubuh. Rontgen adalah bentuk tertua dan paling sering digunakan pencitraan medis.
    Pada gambar 1, gambaran paru nampak lusen karena mengandung banyak udara pada alveolinya. Ukuran jantung tampak normal. Namun, dibandingkan dengan udara di luar tubuh, udara dalam paru memiliki warna lusen yang lebih rendah. Jika warna lusen paru-paru sama dengan udara luar tubuh maka ada kemungkinan pneumotoraks (toraks memiliki udara), misal saat luka tusuk yg mengakibatkan paru-paru mengempis, maka di luar paru-paru terdapat udara.
    Ukuran jantung dewasa tidak boleh melebihi
    setengah diameter intertorakal (CTR: Cardio Thoracic Ratio). Sedangkan ukuran jantung batita adalah lebih besar dari setengah diameter intertorakal (sekitar 0,6 atau 0,7). Jika melebihi ukuran tersebut, maka dicurigai bahwa jantung anak tersebut membesar. Pemotretan toraks dapat dilakukan dengan tiga cara, yaitu posteroanterior (PA) yaitu sinar dari belakang ke depan, anteroposterior (AP) yaitu sinar dari depan ke belakang, dan dari samping (lateral).
    Menurut penelitian, dengan sumber sinar Rontgen berjarak 100 cm dan diambil gambar AP dalam posisi berbaring, ukuran jantung (CTR) normal ialah 0,56. Dalam melihat hasil foto toraks harus
    diperhatikan adanya kelainan-kelainan seperti garis- garis putih, kabut, atau gambaran bulat seperti koin (coin lesion) pada paru-paru. Di Indonesia, penyakit paru seperti tuberkulosis masih banyak.

    ABSTRACT
    Background: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is considered as the most common nosocomial infection in the intensive care unit (ICU) with high mortality rates. Hypoalbuminemia has been recognized as poor prognostic indicator in critically ill patients but its role in patients with VAP is not fully known. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of initial serum albumin in predicting the mortality of patient with VAP. Method: We designed a retrospective study to analyze data from hospitalized patients with VAP between 2003 - 2012 in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, a tertiary hospital in Indonesia. Patients were grouped based on their initial serum albumin levels into: Group-1 (less than 2.7 g/dL), Group-2 (2.7 to 3.5 g/dL), and Group-3 (above 3.5 g/dL). We analyzed the hazard of in-hospital-mortality with cox proportional hazard model.
    Results: Out of 194 patients evaluated in this study, 95 patients (49%) were included in Group-1, 83 patients (42.8%) in Group-2, and 16 patients (8.2%) in Group-3. Overall mortality rate was 58.2%. The hazards of in-hospital- mortality in Group-1 and Group-2 were 2.48 (95% CI 1.07 to 5.74; p = 0.033) and 1.42 (95% CI 0.60 to 3.34; p = 0.43), respectively, compared to Group-3.
    Conclusion: Hypoalbuminemia increases the risk of mortality and initial serum albumin level should be considered as a predictor of mortality in every patient with VAP.

    ABSTRACT
    Pleural effusion is a condition when there is an accumulation of fluid in pleural space. The condition may manifest in breathing impairment by limiting lung expansion space. Pleural effusion is suffered by more than 1.5 million people
    per year in America. A study held in Persahabatan Hospital between 2010-2011 found 119 cases of pleural effusion,
    42,8% was malignant pleural effusion. Pleural malignancy is the most common indication for thoracocentesis, thus must be considered in massive pleural effusion (MPE). Therapy for MPE is palliative with the goal being relief of dyspnea. Treatment options for MPE are detemined by several factors: symptoms and performance status of the patient, the primary tumor type and its response to systemic therapy, and degree of lung re-expansion following pleural fluid removal. In this case, we will present a case of malignant pleural effusion as an illustration in searching of evidence in comparing between pleurodesis and indwelling pleural catheter in management of malignant pleural effusion.

    ABSTRACT
    Background: The incidence of Tuberculosis (TB) infection has increased throughout the years with a high mortality rate. The clinical manifestation of TB is a result of interaction between bacterial virulence, host immunity, and environmental factor. Nutritional component, such as vitamin D, plays a significant role in the host immune system. Vitamin D magnifies anti tuberculosis response toward macrophage. There was no data regarding vitamin D level in accordance to new cases of TB.
    Objective: to describe the sputum smear conversion and vitamin D level in accordance to new cases of TB.
    Methods: This study was performed in multicenter health facilities. Patient that has been confirmed with new case of TB and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria was enrolled to this study. The follow-up was done within 2 months. The data on socio demography, anthropometry, baseline vitamin D level, and conversion parameter were collected. Vitamin D level was differentiated into 3 categories: normal, insufficient, and deficient. In the 7 months period (October 2014-April 2015), 109 subjects were enrolled: 88 completed the follow-up, 20 dropped out, and 1 died. Results: In the study of 88 subjects, there were 55 people (62.5%) with sputum conversion and 33 people (37.5%) with non sputum conversion. The results of vitamin D levels were normal in 15 people (17%), insufficient in 29 people (33%), and deficient in 44 people (50%). Sputum conversion occurred in 9 people (16.4%) in the normal vitamin D group, 16 people (29.1%) in insufficient group, and 30 people (54.5%) in the deficient group. It means that conversion didn’t occur in 6 people (18.2%) in normal group, 13 people (39.4%) in insufficient group, and 14 people (42.4%) in deficient group.
    Conclusion: People with vitamin D deficiency had both the highest number of subjects who experienced sputum conversion, and didn’t experience sputum conversion. This results indicated that there are other factors that play a role in TB infection, such as VDR polymorphism. This interaction will manifest especially in patients with low level of vitamin D. Further investigation should be done in order to evaluate the correlation between VDR polymorphism with TB infection.
    Keywords : Sputum conversion, therapy, tuberculosis, vitamin D

    Kontak: pulmonologi89@yahoo.co.id


    PENDAHULUAN
    Kanker paru adalah penyebab utama kematian akibat kanker. Sekitar 32% dari semua kematian akibat kanker pada pria dan 25% pada wanita disebabkan oleh kanker paru. Sebagian besar kasus kanker paru terjadi pada individu berusia 35-75 tahun dengan insidensi puncak terjadi antara usia 55-65 tahun. Di Amerika Serikat pada tahun 2010, 157.300 orang diproyeksikan meninggal akibat kanker paru-paru. Angka tersebut melebihi total jumlah kematian akibat kanker kolon, rektum, payudara, dan prostat. Hanya sekitar 2% pasien kanker paru yang didiagnosis dengan metastasis dapat tetap hidup lima tahun setelah diagnosis. Tingkat kelangsungan hidup untuk kanker paru yang didiagnosis pada stadium awal lebih tinggi, yakni sekitar 49% dapat bertahan hidup selama lima tahun atau lebih.


    DEFINISI
    Kanker paru umumnya dibagi menjadi dua kategori besar, yakni kanker paru sel kecil (small cell lung cancer-SCLC) dan kanker paru non-sel kecil (non-small cell lung cancer-NSCLC). Kategori NSCLC terbagi lagi menjadi adenokarsinoma, karsinoma sel skuamosa, dan karsinoma sel besar. Sekitar 80% kasus kanker paru merupakan NSCLC.
    EPIDEMIOLOGI
    Jumlah kasus kanker paru di Rumah Sakit Kanker Dharmais Jakarta tahun 1998 menduduki
    urutan ke-3 sesudah kanker payudara dan leher rahim. Angka kematian akibat kanker paru di seluruh dunia mencapai kurang lebih satu juta penduduk tiap tahunnya. Oleh sebab sistem pencatatan kita belum baik, prevalensi pasti kanker paru di Indonesia belum diketahui. Di negara berkembang lain, insidensi
    kanker paru dilaporkan meningkat dengan cepat karena konsumsi rokok berlebihan, misalnya China yang mengkonsumsi 30% rokok dunia. Sebagian besar kanker paru mengenai pria (65%) dengan life time risk 1:13 , sedangkan pada wanita risikonya 1:20.

    Abstract
    Introduction: Community-acquired pneumonia is an infectious disease with one of the highest mortality rates. Recently, there are two widely-used models that have been developed to predict the severity of the disease: CURB-65 and PSI. This case report aimed to compare PSI and CURB-65 as the better severity assessment model based on the 30-day mortality rate.
    Methods: Literature searching was done using two electronic databases: Cochrane® and PubMed® on October 1st, 2015 using CURB-65, Pneumonia Severity Index (PSI), Community-acquired pneumonia, and mortality as keywords. Results: One study suggested that PSI is more accurate for predicting short-term mortality in higher risk patients (AUC 0,81), while another study suggest that CURB-65 is better (AUC 7,44) as a prediction model. Discussion: The study that suggest CURB-65 as a better prediction model used very old patients and most of them had more than one comorbidities which can affect mortality rate. Our patient is a 68-year old woman with chronic kidney disease stage III and chronic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. We conclude that PSI is better at predicting short-term mortality in our patient.

    ABSTRACT
    Background: Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) had caused high prevalence of morbidity and mortality worlwide. Management of CAP depends on the severity of the disease. CURB-65 and PSI are the most frequently used clinical scoring system with high sensitivity and specifity in predicting mortality among inpatients with CAP. Procalcitonin (PCT) is a good biomarker for diagnosing CAP. High level of PCT indicates higher risk of complication among CAP patients, even if they were classified as low-risk by CURB-65 and PSI.
    Objective: To determine the correlation between severity of CAP and PCT level.
    Methods: Descriptive-analytic method was used in this cross-sectional study among CAP subjects in Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar from September 2014 to January 2015. Severity of CAP was assessed with CURB-65 and PSI score. Initial PCT level was measured quantitatively with immunoluminometric method. Results: There are a total of 40 subjectsincluden in this study (mean age of 52 years). Range of CURB-65 score is 0-4, range of PSI socre 41-191, and range of PCT level 0,05-86,66. PCT showed significant correlation with both CURB-65 and PSI. PCT level (y) could be predicted using CURB-65(x): 1,33 + 5,22x. Mean PCT level had a significant difference among CURB-65 risk category, but it was not observed among PSI risk class. Age had a significant influence on mean PSI score. Comorbidty had no significant impact on CURB-65, so does the effect of the number of comorbidity on PSI score.
    Conclusion: This study showed that severity assessment of CAP using CURB-65 score has been proved to be significantly correlated with PCT level. However, no significant correlation was observed with PSI score. Key words: Severity assessment of CAP, CURB-65 score, PSI score , PCT level.

    ABSTRACT
    Background: Mortality and major adverse cardiovascular effect (MACE) was a frequent post-PCI complication. Risk stratification by clinical scoring system could predict those complications. New Mayo Clinic Risk Score (NMCRS), which used easy to collect seven variables from medical record, had a good performance for predicting post PCI complication. No study has been done regarding mortality and MACE outcome in relation to NMCRS characteristics of post PCI patients at ICCU RSCM.
    Objective: To obtain mortality and MACE incidence according to NMCRS characteristics of post PCI patients at ICCU RSCM.
    Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted to evaluate 313 post PCI patients in ICCU RSCM between August 1st 2013 and August 31 2014. Seven variables were collected from patients’ medical records and NMCRS results for each risk category were determined.
    Results: Post-PCI inhospital mortality incidence was 3,8% (CI 95% 2,6-5) and post-PCI inhospital MACE incidence was 8,3% (CI 95% 6,6-10). Older patients, patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction, elevated serum creatinine level,and patient suffering from pre-procedure cardiogenic shock, myocardial infarct, or peripheral arterial disease had a higher post-PCI mortality and MACE incidence. Results of NMCRS regarding mortality risk showed very low risk in 167 patients (53%), low risk 60 (19%), moderate risk 47 (15%), high risk 10 (3%), and very high risk 29 9%). Mortality incicence in very low risk category was 2 (1,2%), low risk 0, moderate risk 2 (4,25%), high risk 1 (10%), and very high risk 7 (24,13%). Results of NMCRS regarding MACE risk showed very low risk in 101 patients (32%), low risk 128 (41%), moderate 52 (17%), high risk 16 (5%) very high risk 16 (5%). MACE incidence in very low risk was 4 (3,96%), low risk 7 (5,46%), moderate risk 4 (7,69%), high risk 5 (31,25%), and very high risk 6 (37,5%).
    Conclusion: Inhospital mortality incidence after PCI was 3,8% (CI 95% 2,6-5) and inhospital MACE incidence after PCI was 8,3% (CI 95% 6,6-10). The increase of NMCRS score was also followed with the increase of mortality and MACE incidence after PCI.

    ABSTRACT
    Background: The assessment of severity in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) at early admission is important to determine the risk of in-hospital mortality, the need of hospitalization or requirement of intensive care unit and further management. Two scoring systems, DECAF (Dyspnea, Eosinopenia, Consolidation, Acidaemia, Atrial Fibrillation) and BAP-65 (elevated BUN, Altered mental status, Pulse 109 beats/min, age >65 years were developed as prognostic tools.
    Objective: To compare the sensitivity and specificity of DECAF scoring and BAP-65 scoring in predicting 30-days mortality in AECOPD patients.
    Methods: A cohort study was conducted on patients in Emergency Unit and in-patients with AECOPD in H. Adam Malik Hospital, Medan, from February to June 2013. Both DECAF scores and BAP-65 scores were assessed. The sensitivity and specificity of both scorings were compared to determine the more accurate predictor. Results: A total of 40 subjects were recruited with mean age of 61,07 ± 12,42 years old. Nine subjects died during the study. Chi-square test showed that both scoring systems were significantly related to 30-days mortality, with p=0,003 for DECAF scoring and p=0,002 for BAP-65 scoring. The sensitivity and specificity of DECAF scoring are 100% and 16%, while those of BAP-65 scoring are 100% and 39%, respectively.
    Conclusion: Both DECAF scoring and BAP-65 scoring have significant correlation with 30-days mortality in AECOPD patients. Both scoring systems have high sensitivity. However, low specificity renders both systems unfitting as predictor tools.
    Key words: Acute exacerbation, COPD, BAP-65 score, DECAF score, predictor.

    ABSTRACT
    Background: Identifying the mortality risk of nonsurgical emergency department (ED) patients is essential as a consequence of increasing number of patients with diverse disease severity. Rapid Emergency Medicine Score (REMS) was developed to predict patient’s mortality in a short time, therefore it can help doctors to make clinical decision based on objective data. Difference in patients’ characteristic may influence the score’s performance value, therefore validation of REMS is needed before deciding to apply this system in Indonesia.
    Objective: To evaluate calibration and discrimination performance of REMS in predicting mortality of nonsurgical ED patients in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital.
    Methods: This is a prospective cohort study of nonsurgical patients who went to ED of Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital in October-December 2012. Age, body temperature, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, peripheral oxygen saturation, and Glasgow coma scale were obtained when the patient arrived at emergency room to perform the calculation of REMS. Outcome was assessed when patients were discharged from the hospital (alive or dead). Calibration was evaluated with calibration plot and Hosmer-Lemeshow test. Discrimination was evaluated with area under the curve (AUC).
    Results: A total of 815 nonsurgical patients went to ED of Cipto Mangunkusmo Hospital during the study period. As many as 741 (90.9%) patients were followed until the outcome was reached. Mortality was observed in 145 patients (19.57%). Calibration plot of REMS showed r = 0.913 and Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed p = 0.665. Discrimination was shown by ROC curve with AUC 0.77 (95% CI 0.723; 0.817).
    Conclusion: Rapid Emergency Medicine Score showed a good calibration and discrimination performance in predicting mortality of nonsurgical emergency department patients in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital.
    Key Words: Validation, rapid emergency medicine score, mortality, non surgical emergency.

    ABSTRACT
    Background: ARDS is a critical disease that has a mortality rate of 40-60%. Mortality due to ARDS is influenced by some factors that can be predicted. Those factors should be taken into consideration in patient management so that the mortality rate can be reduced.
    Objective: To observe factors that have high contribution to the mortality due to ARDS and to give recommendation based on those factors.
    Methods: This is a cross sectional study. Research subjects are ARDS patients admitted to Intensive Care Unit Sardjito Hospital, Yogyakarta from January 2009 till December 2014. ARDS diagnosis was defined based on AECC criteria. Demographic data, laboratory results, and its follow up were obtained from medical records. Data were analyzed using SPSS 17. Bivariate and multivariate analysis with log regression were used to determine the contribution of related factors to mortality.
    Results: There are a total of 101 subjects (72 patients are dead and 29 patients are alive) in study. Bivariate analysis showed that there are six factors affecting mortality: pneumonia, COPD, MODS, leucocyte count, pleural effusion, and vasopressor use. According to multivariate analysis, all factors have significant contribution to mortality, except pleural effusion. Factor with the highest odds ratio value are pneumonia (6.4) and the lowest are vasopressor use (4.9).
    Conclusion: There are five factors with significant contribution to mortality of ARDS patients admitted to ICU. Those factors are pneumonia, COPD, leucocyte count, MODS, and the use of vasopresor. Therefore, it is very important to give more attention to those factors and to give optimal therapy based on those factors in managing patients with ARDS to reduce its mortality.

    ABSTRACT
    Background: Critically ill patients are increasing in number with high mortality rates. Prediction model with a good performance is needed to predict their mortalities. Modified Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (MSOFA) is one of the scoring systems which can predict 28 days mortality. It has shown many good results abroad, however it still need to be validated in Indonesia. In order to improve its performance, total serum magnesium is considered too be use as an added variable.
    Objective: To evaluate the performance of MSOFA and the value of added magnesium level as predictor of mortality in critically ill patient.
    Methods: This is a prospective cohort study. Medical data which consist of physical examination, Glasgow Coma Scale, peripheral oxygen saturation measurement, creatinine and magnesium serum level were obtained from subjects who were admitted to Intensive Care Unit of Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital during April to July 2013. Subjects were assessed for outcome after 28 days of admission. Calibration performance was evaluated with calibration plot and Hosmer-Lemeshow test. Discrimination value was measured with area under the curve (AUC). Performance of MSOFA and magnesium value were appraised with ROC curve.
    Results: A total of 150 critically ill patients was submitted for this study with 33,3% mortality rate. Calibration plot of MSOFA showed r = 0,7 and Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed p = 0,08. Discrimination value was shown by ROC curve with AUC 0,83 (CI 95% 0,76-0,90). With a cut-off value of 1,85 mEq/L, magnesium has shown optimal sensitivity and specificity, 38% and 48% respectively. However, AUC curve do not change after magnesium variable was added. Conclusion: MSOFA has shown a good calibration and discrimination performance in Indonesian people. Magnesium blood level has no added value to MSOFA for predicting mortality in critically ill patients.
    Key words: Validation, Modified Sequential Organ Failure Assessment, total serum magnesium, mortality predictior, critically ill patients.

    PENDAHULUAN
    Tuberkulosis (TB) merupakan penyakit menular melalui droplet udara yang disebabkan Mycobacterium Tuberculosis. Meskipun tingkat penularan TB relatif rendah dibandingkan dengan penyakit menular lainnya dan pengobatan yang efektif telah ditemukan sejak lima dekade lalu, TB masih menjadi masalah kesehatan global yang sulit diatasi. Tidak kurang dari sepertiga populasi dunia terinfeksi TB. Setiap tahun ditemukan sembilan juta kasus baru dan hampir dua juta penderita dilaporkan meninggal dunia. Insidens penularan infeksi HIV ikut berkontribusi terhadap meningkatnya epidemiologi TB secara global, khususnya di Afrika dan Asia. Peningkatan prevalensi tersebut juga diikuti peningkatan resistensi terhadap obat antituberkulosis (OAT). Ada tiga jenis resistensi yang dikenal dengan nama multidrug-resistant (MDR), extensively drug- resistant (XDR), dan total drug-resistant (TDR). Banyaknya jumlah kasus resistensi mencerminkan kegagalan program-program kesehatan yang sudah dijalankan selama ini.1
    Indonesia sebagai salah satu negara berkembang di Asia Tenggara pun tidak luput dari masalah- masalah di atas. Indonesia menduduki peringkat ke-4 negara dengan kasus TB terbanyak setelah India, Cina, Afrika Selatan, dan Nigeria. Prevalensi TB di Indonesia cenderung stabil dari tahun ke tahun dengan angka prevalensi yang masih cukup tinggi, yaitu 261 per 100.000 penduduk. Persentase MDR TB saat ini sekitar 1,9 % dari semua kasus TB.2
    Sejak tahun 1994, kasus MDR telah banyak dilaporkan oleh 114 negara. Dengan pelaporan dan pelaksanaan program tata laksana MDR TB yang intensif, diharapkan angka insidens MDR TB dapat ditekan. Kesulitan utama dalam tata laksana TB resisten obat baik MDR atau XDR adalah kualitas pemeriksaan sputum. Kualitas pemeriksaan yang baik merupakan salah satu indikasi program tata laksana nasional MDR TB berjalan dengan baik. Hal tersebut dijalankan dengan baik oleh negara-negara yang rutin mengirimkan hasil pemantauan nasionalnya
