To achieve effective dialysis using a double lumen catheter, placement of the catheter tip plays an important role because it may affect blood flow/Quick of Blood (QB). The selection of femoral vein access is more favorable in critical patients. This study was aimed to obtain the correlation between the tip position of the non-tunneling short-term femoral double lumen catheter (DLC) and QB at the time of hemodialysis. This was an analytical correlative and prospective study with a cross-sectional design in patients with end-stage renal failure undergoing hemodialysis using a non-tunneling short-term femoral DLC. This study was conducted at the Hemodialysis Installation of Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. Data were analyzed by using the Pearson's r test. The results showed that there were 31 patients enrolled in this study. The Pearson’s r test obtained an r of 0.147 (statistically weak) and Sig (2-tailed) of 0.430 which showed no correlation but the scatter plot showed a tendency of a weak positive relationship. Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between Qb and the tip position of DLC, albeit, there was a tendency of a weak positive relationship. Increasing the number of samples will more accurately predict the presence or absence of the correlation between Qb and the tip position of the DLC.Keywords: DLC, QB, hemodialysisAbstrak: Pasien dengan penyakit ginjal stadium akhir tidak dapat mempertahankan hidup tanpa dukungan terapi pengganti ginjal yaitu dialisis atau transplantasi ginjal. Untuk mencapai dialisis yang efektif dengan menggunakan kateter lumen ganda, penempatan kateter berperan penting karena dapat memengaruhi aliran darah/Quick of Blood (QB). Pemilihan akses vena femoralis lebih menguntungkan pada pasien kritis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui korelasi letak ujung kateter lumen ganda femoralis jangka pendek (DLC) dengan QB pada saat hemodialisis. Jenis penelitian ialah analitik korelatif dan prospektif dengan desain potong lintang. Subyek penelitian ialah pasien dengan gagal ginjal tahap akhir yang menjalani hemodialisis menggunakan kateter lumen ganda femoralis jangka pendek non-tunneling. Penelitian dilakukan di Instalasi Hemodialisis RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou, Manado. Data dianalisis menggunakan koefisien korelasi Pearson. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan 31 pasien sebagai subyek. Hasil analisis koefisien Pearson terhadap korelasi antara letak ujung DLC dan QB memperlihatkan hubungan statistik lemah (r = 0,147) dengan Sig (2-tailed) 0,430 yang menunjukkan tidak terdapat hubungan bermakna tetapi pada scatter plot terlihat adanya kecenderungan hubungan positif lemah.

It is characterized by recurrent mucocutaneous ulcer in the mouth and genitalia, and mostly affects the age group of 20 to 30 ys. Genital lesion of AB must be differentiated from others caused by sexually transmitted disease, such as genital herpes. Co-infection of AB with genital herpes is very rare. We reported a male 72-year old, came with painful ulcers in the mouth and genital area since a week before visit. Symptoms were recurrent since three years ago. History of arthritis, recurrent headache, eye and skin lesions were denied. Patient was sexually promiscuous. Physical examination revealed multiple ulcers on the labium oris sized 0.5cm-1cm, irregular border, base covered by fibrin tissue, associated with erosion and crust. Multiple ulcers were also found on penile glans, sized 0.1x1x0.2 cm, irregular border, with pus and necrotic tissue. The ulcers were punched out. Pathergy test and anti HSV-1 IgM were negative meanwhile anti HSV-1 IgG, anti HSV-2 IgM as well as anti HSV-2 IgG were positive. Acyclovir 200mg 5x/day for five days, triamcinolone acetonide lotion bid for the mouth ulcer, NaCl 0,9% dressing applied tid for 30 minutes, and fucidic acid cream bid were given and the symptoms improved after 10 days. The prognosis was bonam for ad vitam and dubia for ad functionam and ad sanationam. Conclusion: The diagnosis of AB was based on the International Criteria for Behcet Disease, with a total score of 4 for the recurrent ulcer in mouth and genital area. The positive result of anti HSV-1 IgG, anti HSV-2 IgM and anti HSV-2 IgG supported the coinfection with genital herpes. This coinfection of AB and genital herpes was the first reported in Manado. Immunosenescence was a possible risk factor of the recurrent genital herpes. Symptomatic and antiviral treatment improved the symptoms with possible recurrent genital herpes.Keywords: Adamantiades-Behcet, genital herpes, coinfectionAbstrak: Penyakit Adamantiades-Behçet (AB) merupakan kelainan inflamasi multisistemik yang tidak diketahui penyebabnya dengan manifestasi mukokutan tersering berupa ulkus berulang pada mulut dan genital.

Dermal fillers vary in duration of therapeutic effect, filler technique, filler origin, and their physical properties. To date, there is no perfect filler so far. An ideal filler must be non-allergenic, non-carcinogenic, non-teratogenic, as well as has achievable cost and long acting effect.
