1.2 ANAMNESIS

(Anamnesis performed as allo-anamnesis with father and mother of patient


at inpatient ward Anggrek 2 RS Bhayangkara Tk I R. Said Sukanto april 18,
2018).

Chief Complaint

Diarrhea since 3 days before entering hospital.

Additinaol Complaint

Fever, vomiting, and massa in abdomen

Present Illness History

Since 3 days before hospital admission patients diarrhea more than 10 times
per day. Urinary bowel movements, accompanied by a little dregs, yellowish-
green, visible mucus, no blood, and smell more rotten than the stool usually. The
patient's mother changed the diaper more than 4 times and the diaper was always
full of dilute feces. The patient's mother said her son's eyes were hollow, more
thirsty than usual, and more fussy. Bloated is denied, and does not appear pale.
Urination can come out but little and the color is more dense. Patients are also
difficult to feed. At that time the patient's parents immediately took to the health
center near his home and given syrup paracetamol, zinc, and ORS. According to
the patient's mother, the patient's condition does not improve.
Since 3 days before admission, ± 3 hours after diarrhea, the patient has a fever.
The fever arises slowly. Fever according to the patient's mother constantly. Fever
is not affected by time. Fever had dropped after the patient was given paracetamol
syrup from the Puskesmas.
Since 3 days before entering the hospital, the patient also experienced
vomiting. Vomiting ± 5 times a day. Vomiting especially when the patient is
given a drink or a meal. The contents of vomit in the form of food content that
patients eat. Fill the vomit like water as saliva when the stomach is empty. There
is no blood. In one vomit, the vomit volume is approximately ½ to ½ cup of star
fruit.

3
One hour before hospitalization, the patient was taken by his parents to the
Susukan Community Health Center because of conditions that did not improve.
There the patient had a seizure for approximately 5 minutes. At that moment
suddenly the eyeball of the patient glared upward, his body stiff, no fetal, did not
respond if called, no foaming mouth and no bluish. Seizures lasted only once.
Patients have no fever while experiencing a seizure because the morning before
leaving already drank paracetamol syrup. This seizure is the first time. No history
has fallen before. As long as there is given the drug, but the patient does not know
the name of the drug given. Patients are encouraged to be referred. Then the
patient was referred to Bhayangkara Tk. I R. Said Sukanto.
At present, according to the patient's parents the condition is better, the child
appears calmer, not vomiting, appetite improves, diarrhea this morning 2 times,
the consistency of liquid with more dregs, yellow-green, foul, and the patient's
mother changing diapers every his child diarrhea. BAK can come out in light
yellow. Urine is clearer than before. Currently the patient has no fever, no
seizures, and no cold cough complaints. The patient is still fussy, and still seems
more thirsty than usual. According to the patient's mother, the patient's body
weight before diarrhea is 12 kgs.
Since birth, patient has mass in abdomen. Mass can in and out. Appears when
crying, defecate, and straining, lost if rest.

Past Illness History


The patient had never been hospitalized before. Patients occasionally cough
and runny nose but recover with medication from Puskesmas and diarrhea only
once less than 4 times per day and never more than 3 days. The patient was never
hospitalized. There is no history of drug and food allergies.

Family Illness History and Environment Condition


The patient lives at home with his mother, father, grandfather, and
grandmother. Currently the patient's father is also experiencing diarrhea.
However, it has been improved after taking medication from Puskesmas
Kelurahan. There isn’t family with HIV history.

• Psychological status: Normal
• Conclusion: Status of growth and development is still within normal limits
and according to patient age.

• Food History
• Breast milk: given from birth and continued to children aged ± 1 year.
• Milk formula: given from birth, because the initial time of
breastfeeding does not come out. Currently formula milk is still given.
• Bananas: begin to be given when the patient is 6 months old in the
morning and afternoon.
• The patient has no difficulty eating.

Immunitation History
According to the information from the patient's mother, the patient
gets complete immunization according to the schedule at the Puskesmas.
At birth the patient is directly immunized at the maternity hospital and the
next immunization is always done at the Puskesmas.

LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1. Diarrhea

Diarrhea is the second leading cause of death in children under five years
in the world, and is responsible for the deaths of 1.5 million children every year,
which is almost equal to one in five global child deaths.1,2 Diarrhea kills more
children compared with AIDS, malaria and measles combined.2 Indonesia also
places diarrhea as the second leading cause of death among children in the
country. According to the Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS
1997) the prevalence of diarrhea in Indonesia is 10.4% and is the second highest
cause of death in children.3

Most children who die from diarrhea actually die from severe dehydration
and fluid loss, especially in under-five children and under-nourished children or
immunocompromised children. 2, 4

Definition

Diarrhea is defined as a change in the consistency of the stool becomes


more tender / liquid and accompanied by increased frequency of defecation. The
defecation can be / without mucus and blood.1,2 WHO defines diarrhea as
discharge of watery stool (which follows vessel form) with a frequency of 3 or
more in a 24 hour period.5 The episodes of diarrhea are distinguished to be acute
and persistent based on their duration. Acute diarrhea occurs suddenly and not
later than 14 days. Persistent diarrhea is defined as an episode of diarrhea that
occurs more than 14 days.

For infants and children, the amount of stool output is greater than 10g / kg
/ 24 hours or more than the adult limit of 200g / 24 hours. Diarrhea is a result of
disruption of intestinal and electrolyte fluid transport.2

21
Etiology

The most common cause is infectious agents, but other causes that cause
the same clinical manifestations should not be ignored. The causes of acute
diarrhea include 3.4

Functional anatomy of the intestinal mucosa2,6

Villus, the functional unit of the small intestine, multiplies the surface of
the digestion and absorption of the small intestinal mucosa. Enzyme digestion and

22
transport proteins are responsible for the movement of electrolytes in the intestinal
mucosa located in the brush border membrane of the villi cells. The
gastrointestinal tract epithelium is an epithel that can regulate the osmotic charge
into the small intestine. The tight link, the dynamic structure that occurs between
the epithelial cells, contributes to the movement of water and the overall
electrolyte.

The transport of electrolytes via small intestinal epithelial cells occurs


through several mechanisms, including glucose-sodium co-transporter. The
transport of this protein requires the presence of a sodium gradient along the brush
border membrane maintained by the Na, K + ATPase pump on the basolateral
enterocyte membrane.

The second mechanism is the electroneutral NaCl-coupled pathway which


involves a dual exchange mechanism by Na-H + exchanger and Cl-HCO3-
exchanger.

Patophysiology

Diarrhea results from an imbalance between absorption of water and


electrolytes with secretions. This change may occur either due to an osmotic force
in the lumen that draws water or the result of induced active secretion status on
enterocytes.3

Osmotic diarrhea

Osmotic diarrhea is caused by a substrate that can not be absorbed in the


gastrointestinal tract and is generally associated with intestinal damage.2,6 The
classical example of osmotic diarrhea is lactose intolerance caused by enzyme
deficiency so that lactose can not be absorbed in the small intestine and reaches
the colon in the intact state . The colonic bacteria then ferment the unabsorbed
lactose into short-chain organic acids, generating osmosis so that water is secreted
into the lumen. Another example is the consumption of carbonated beverages
containing excessive amounts of sugar beyond the transport capacity, especially in
infants, and the consumption of sorbitol and magnesium salts, both of which are
not absorbed. In general, osmotic diarrhea occurs when digestion and / or

23
absorption is problematic. Osmotic diarrhea ceases with fasting and has an acidic
pH.6

Secretory diarrhea

The mechanism of diarrheal diarrhea is the activation of intracellular


mediators such as cAMP, cGMP, and intracellular Ca2 +, which stimulates the Cl-
-active secretion of crypto cells and inhibits the absorption of neutral coupled
sodium chloride. This mediator interferes with paracellular flux ions due to toxin
injuries occurring in the tight junction.6 Classical examples of secretory diarrhea
caused by cholera and Escherichia coli enterotoxins that bind to enterocene
surface receptors (monocogioslioside GM1). Fragments of cholera toxin will then
enter the cell and activate adenylyl cyclase on the basolateral membrane through
interaction with protein G. This incident increases intracellular cAMP that
activates a specific protein which then generates chloride channel opening.6

E. coli will mediate secretory diarrhea by generating heat-labile toxin (LT)


and heat-stable toxin (ST) in the small intestine. LT action is similar to cholera
toxin and binds to the same surface receptor. Another cause of secretory diarrhea
is a vasoactive peptide that activates G protein-coupled receptors leading to an
increase in intracellular mediators.2

Secretory diarrhea usually has a lot of volume, the stool contains a lot of
water. Stool analysis showed high sodium and chloride (> 70 mEq / L). Secretory
diarrhea continues with fasting.6

The classical concept that only the bacterial diarrhea diarrhea diarrhea
begins to be challenged by the evidence that similar ion secretory pathways are
induced by viral agents and protozoa.6 Rotavirus produces nonstructural proteins
(NSP4) that can stimulate calcium-mediated chloride secretion. Secretory diarrhea
may also arise through a noninfectious process. Some hormones and
neurotransmitters are known to be involved in intestinal secretion as part of the
integrated neuroendocrine system in the intestinal response to external stimuli.

24
Acute diarrhea, mainly caused by infection, is influenced by host factors
and causal factors. Host factor is the body's ability to defend itself against
organisms that can cause acute diarrhea, consisting of preventable factors or
internal environment of the gastrointestinal tract, including gastric acidity,
intestinal motility, immunity and intestinal microflora environment. Causal factors
are penetration power that can damage mucosal cells, the ability to produce toxins
that affect the secretion of small intestine fluids and the adhesiveness of germs.1

Infection diarrhea is divided into: 1

1. non-invasive (enterotoxigenic): bacteria that do not damage the mucosa, eg


Vibrio cholerae Eltor, Enterotoxigenic E.coli (ETEC), and Clostridium
perfringens. V.cholerae eltor secretes toxins bound to the small intestine
mucosa 15-30 minutes after production. This enterotoxin causes excessive
activity of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in the walls of the
intestinal cells, thereby increasing the levels of adenosine 3 ', 5'cAMP in
cells that cause the active secretion of anion chloride into the intestinal
lumen followed by water, bicarbonate ions, sodium and potassium cations.
2. invasive (enterovasif): bacteria that damage the mucosa such as
Enteroinvasive E.coli (EIEC), Salmonella, Shigella, Yersinia,
C.perfringens type C. Diarrhea is caused by damage to the intestinal wall
in the form of necrosis and ulceration. The nature of the diarrhea is
exudative secretory. Diarrhea fluid can be mixed with mucus and blood.
Common causes of parasites are E.histolytica and G.lamblia.

Pathogenesis

Virus

Some types of viruses such as rotavirus, breed in the epithelium of the small
intestine, cause epithelial cell damage and villous shortening. The loss of villous
cells that normally have a function of absorption and temporary replacement by
epithelial cells that form immature crypts, causing the intestine to secrete water
and electrolytes. Damage to the villi may also be associated with loss of

25
disaccharidase enzyme, resulting in reduced absorption of the disaccharides
especially lactose. Healing occurs when the villi undergoes regeneration and the
vital epithelium becomes mature.1

Bacteria

• Adhesion in the mucosa. The bacteria that breed in the small intestine
must first stick to the mucosa to avoid sweeping. The attachment takes
place through the pili attached to the receptors on the intestinal surface.
This occurs for example in enterotoxigenic E.coli and V. Cholera 01.
In some circumstances, the mucosal attachment is associated with
intestinal epithelial changes that lead to a reduction in absorption
capacity or to cause fluid secretion.1
• Toxins that cause secretions. E. coli is enterotoxigenic, V. Cholerae 01
and some other bacteria secrete toxins that inhibit epithelial cell
function. This toxin reduces sodium absorption through the villi and
may increase the chloride secretion of the crypta, which causes the
secretion of water and electrolytes. Healing occurs when sick cells are
replaced with healthy cells after 2-4 days.1
• Mucosal invasion. Shigella, C jejuni, E coli enteroinvasife and
Salmonella can cause bloody diarrhea through invasion and mucosal
epithelial cell destruction. It occurs mostly in the colon and distal
portions of the ileum. Invasion may be followed by the formation of
superficial microabses and ulcers that cause red blood cells and white
blood cells or the presence of blood in the stool. The toxin produced by
this bacteria causes tissue damage and possibly also the secretion of
water and electrolytes from the mucosa.1

Protozoa

• Mucosal attachment. G.lamblia and Cryptosporidium attach to the


intestinal epithelium and cause shortening of the villi, which is likely
to cause diarrhea.

26
• Mucosal invasion.E. Histolitica causes diarrhea by invading the
mucosal epithelium in the colon (or ileum) causing microabses and
ulcers. But this situation occurs when the strain is very fierce. In
humans, 90% of infections occur by non-malignant strains. In this case
there is no mucosal invasion and no symptoms / signs, although the
amoeba and trophozoite cysts may be present in the stool.1
2.2.DEHIDRASI

Severe diarrhea and limited oral intake can lead to dehydration.


Manifestations of dehydration include increased thirst, decreased urination, dark
urine, inability to sweat and orthostatic changes. In severe diarrhea, acute renal
failure may occur and mental status changes (confusion and dizziness). In all
children with diarrhea, hydration status is classified as severe, moderate, or
dehydrated dehydration.7

Table 2. Classification of dehydration severity in children with diarrhea according


to WHO7-

Klasifikasi Gejala atau tanda


Dehidrasi berat Dua atau lebih dari:
 Lethargi/tidak sadar
 Mata cekung
 Tidak dapat minum atau minum sedikit
 Cubitan pada kulit kembali sangat lambat (≥2 detik)
Dehidrasi ringan Dua atau lebih dari:
sedang  Gelisah, iritabilitas
 Mata cekung
 Minum seperti kehausan
 Cubitan kulit kembali dengan lambat
Tanpa dehidrasi Tidak cukup tanda untuk memenuhi klasifikasi dehidrasi
berat dan sedang

27
Dehydration according to clinical is divided into 3 levels:1

1. mild dehydration (fluid loss 2-5% BB): reduced turgor, hoarseness (vox
cholerica), the patient has not fallen in preshock.
2. Moderate dehydration (fluid loss 5-8% BB): bad turgor, hoarseness,
patient presyok or shock, rapid pulse, fast and deep breath.
3. Severe dehydration (loss of fluid 8-10% BB): signs of moderate
dehydration plus decreased consciousness (apathy to coma), stiff muscles,
cyanosis.

Management of diarrhea according to WHO7

Plan A

Diarrhea without dehydration

• More fluids are given to the child to prevent dehydration. House


liquids such as tajin water, coconut water, vegetable soup or yogurt can
be given. Soft liquids, liquids with artificial sweeteners, and high
glucose are avoided because they can cause osmotic diarrhea. As long
as there are no signs and symptoms of malabsorption during treatment,
termination of milk and dairy products is not recommended. Regular
use of lactose-free formula does not reduce the healing period.
• Oral rehydration solution WHO (Oral Rehydration Solution / ORS)
contains 3.5 g of NaCl, 2.5 g NaCO3, KCl 1.5 g, 20 g glucose in 1 liter
of water (Oralyte, Ottolite). Mother can be taught how to prepare a
salt-sugar liquid, 3 jumps of salt added with about a handful of sugar,
mixed with ½ liter of water. In elongated or severe diarrhea, rice-
containing ORS may be tried. This fluid is acceptable and improves
child nutrition.
• Restriction or cessation of food is not recommended. Children should
still be fed with nutrients and high calories to prevent malnutrition.
ASI continues. A mixture of cereals and nuts, fresh fruit juices and
bananas can be provided. When diarrhea stops, the child is given extra
food every day for one week to gain weight before illness.

28
• Dangers should be explained to the mother and should be reported
immediately, excessive thirst, sunken eyes, fever, refusal to eat or
drink, dysentery, urinary defecation, seizures.

Plan B

Diarrhea with mild-moderate dehydration

• Determine the amount of ORS for the first 3 hours


• If the child wants more oralit from the above guidelines, provide
appropriate fluid loss in progress
• For children younger than 6 months who are not breastfeeding, also
give 100-200 ml of boiled water during this period
• Start feeding as soon as the child wants to eat
• Continue breastfeeding
• Provide a zinc tablet for 10 days

Show mother how to give oralit solution:

- Drink a little but often from cup / cup / glass


- If the child vomits, wait 10 minutes, then continue again more slowly
- Continue breastfeeding as long as the child wants

After 3 hours:

- Repeat the assessment and re-classification of dehydration degree


- Select an appropriate therapy plan to continue treatment

If mother forces to go home before treatment is complete:

- Show me how to prepare an ORS solution at home


- Show some of the many oral solutions that should be given at home to
complete 3 hours of treatment
- Describe the 4 rules of care:

29
1. Add extra fluids

2. Continue feeding

3. Give a zinc tablet for 10 days

4. When to return

Plan C

Diarrhea with severe dehydration

• Must be treated promptly with intravenous fluids due to emergencies,


Ringer Lactate or Normal Saline 0.9% given 100 ml / kg divided as
follows:
- <12 months first administration 30 ml / kg for 1 hour, followed by 70mg
/ kg for 5 hours
- 12 months - 5 years first administration 30 ml / kg for 30 minutes,
followed by 70 mg / kg for 2 and half hours.
• Antibiotics are not routinely given. Antiemetics, antidiarrics and
antimotility are not used. Review every 1 hour, if not improved,
accelerated. Fluids with dextrose should not be used for initial
rehydration as they may aggravate. If the child can take ORS orally
when the intravenous fluids are prepared, give 5ml / kg immediately.
• Review after 6 hours (infant) or 3 hours (child) for hydration status and
select plan A, B, C for next. If intravenous access can not be fast, think
of giving ORS with NGT. The child is conscious and there is no ileus,
20 ml / kg / hr. If required, intraosseous access may be performed in
children under 6 years of age.

Other Management4

• Antibiotics

 Used for certain indications of specific bacterial infections or protozoa,


cholera, Shigella, Giardia. In patients with severe and persistent diarrhea,
with other diseases such as heart failure, lung disease, and AIDS.
 Cholera - tetracycline 12.5 mg / kgBW / day divided into 3 doses.

30
 Shigella dysentery - cefixime 8 mg / kgBW / day divided into 5
doses.
 Amoebiasis - Metronidazole 30-40 mg / kgBW / day divided in 7-10
doses.
 Giardiasis - Metronidazole 30-40mg / kgBW / day divided into 10
doses
• Adsorbents (kaolin, pectin, activated charcoal)
o Just little change in stool consistency, but does not reduce fluid
loss and salt.
• Antimotility (diphenoxylate, opium tincture or loperamide)
o Slows down the elimination of diarrheal organisms and may
prolong the disease.
• Probiotics
o Some strains of probiotics (lactic acid bacteria or mycetes) are
found to be effective as adjuvants in dealing with children with
acute diarrhea. Data from well-designed randomized controlled
trials show statistically significant gains in shortening sickness.
Currently probiotic strains (most Lactobacillus GG and
Saccharomyces boulardii) are widely used in the management of
acute liquid diarrhea in infants and children in developing
countries.
• Zinc
o In children aged 2 bualn and above, zinc tablets are given for 10
days with doses ½ tablets (10) / day for those <6 months old, and 1
tablet (20 mg) / day for those> 6 months.

2.3.SEIZURE

Seizures are signs and / or symptoms that occur transiently due to


abnormal activity or the presence of synchronicity in neurons in the brain.
International Classification of Epileptic Seizures (ICES) divides epileptic
seizures into 2 categories: focal (partial) and generalized. In focal seizures
abnormal activity occurs only in one of the brain hemispheres, while the

31
generalized type occurs in both hemispheres. Approximately 30% of patients
with first seizures will develop epilepsy later; the risk of occurrence of about
20% in patients with neurologic examination results, EEG, and normal
neuroimaging.2

Febrile seizures are a special category. While acute symptomatic seizure


occurs in acute disturbances that disrupt the excitability of the brain such as
electrolyte imbalance or meningitis. Most children with this type of seizure
have a good prognosis, but sometimes in seizures involving major structures
of the brain, inflammation, or metabolic disorders of the brain, such as
meningitis, encephalitis, acute stroke, or brain tumors, the prognosis depends
on the underlying cause. Unprovoked seizure is not an acute symptomatic
seizure. Remote symptomatic seizure is a seizure caused by previous brain
damage such as an old stroke. Seizure disorder is a common term used to
describe one of several disorders, including epilepsy, febrile seizures, and
seizures caused by infection, metabolic disorders, or other causes (eg,
hypocalcemia, meningitis).2

Relationship Disruption of fluid and electrolyte balance with the occurrence


of seizures.8

Water and electrolytes are constantly moving through blood vessels and
cell membranes, to maintain balance. The homeostatic fluids and electrolytes are
regulated by the interactions of the kidneys, skin, lungs, adrenal glands, and brain.
The presence of malfunction in one of these organs can cause a disturbance of
fluid or electrolyte balance. Severe persistent diarrhea or vomiting with poor fluid
intake can lead to excessive depletion of water in the body or dehydration.

Other causes of dehydration include excessive sweating, polyuria, diabetes


mellitus, and diabetes insipidus. In infants and children dehydration often occurs
along with electrolyte imbalances. Excessive fluid loss while many salts in the
body cause hypertonic dehydration. Excessive salt loss will lead to a hypotonic
state. Both conditions can disrupt brain development. In hypertonic dehydration,
cell leak occurs so that venous thrombosis can occur. Rapid correction in

32
hypertonic state may cause cerebral edema. In hypotonics, water moves into the
brain set, allowing cerebral edema with intracellular swelling.

The clinical manifestations of dehydration depend on the rate of change of


fluid and electrolytes, including the degree of hypo or hypernatremia. Lethargy
and confusion occur in the acute isotonic dehydration state. If the condition lasts
long, hypotension can occur and will cause cerebral ischemia to the point of coma.
At a change in mental status, hypotonic dehydration may be accompanied by
seizures. In acute hypertonic conditions may appear iritabel, increased muscle
tone, hyperrefleks, seizures, and changes in mental status. Rapid and excessive
rehydration and sodium reduction in these conditions can cause brain
intraparenchymal hemorrhage with coma, multifocal abnormalities on
examination, and seizures.

A history of vomiting and / or diarrhea, and inadequate fluid intake, along


with poor skin turgor, dry mucosa, sunken eyes, and lack of tear production make
the diagnosis of dehydration easier. However, the invention will be difficult to see
if there is a hypertonic dehydration state, since the relative extracellular fluid
volume is maintained.

Intravenous fluid replacement is the primary treatment. Faster fluid and


electrolyte replacement initiation is needed to maintain and restore cardiovascular,
kidney, and organ perfusion function. Subsequently, fluid and electrolyte
replacement is done slowly to replace the deficiency to the maximum and to
maintain adequate fluid volume.

Specific parameters for fluid and electrolyte replacement should be on a


case-by-case basis, looking at age, neurological and cardiovascular status,
electrolyte balance degrees, and other factors. Supervision of electrolytes and
kidney function is important to determine further therapy. If severe acidosis
occurs, bicarbonate administration may be performed. in the dehydration of
hypernatremia, hypotonic fluids may be used as fluid replacement therapy, but it
is important to gradually decrease the level of sodium for 72 hours, to minimize
the occurrence of complications that may occur with over-correction. In a state of
rapid correction, of particular concern is the occurrence of cerebral edema with

33
the potential for encephalopathy and even herniation. Seizures usually respond to
correction of dehydration and electrolyte imbalances and no anticonvulsants are
required. The final outcome generally varies although severe cerebral edema or
intraparenchymal bleeding has occurred.
