Foreign body aspiration in tracheobronchial tractus at RSUP H. Adam Malik Medan
Abstract
Abstract. Aspiration of foreign bodies, especially when found in the airways of the tracheobronchial tract, is very dangerous and can sometimes be fatal. Some retrospective studies have reported in several countries that these cases can caused severe complications and life threatening consequences, due to patients frequently coming late to the hospital, which can cause misdiagnosis. Foreign body aspiration can occur at any age, from children to elderly people. There is no current data about the description of patients with foreign body aspiration in the tracheobronchial tract at H. Adam Malik General Hospital in Medan, bringing the authors of this study to carry out a study on the profile of patients with foreign body aspiration in the tracheobronchial tract in the ENT Department of H. Adam Malik Hospital in Medan. With this data, it is expected that the doctors who treat a tracheobronchial foreign body aspiration can be better prepared. Data was taken from the medical records of patients diagnosed with foreign body aspiration in tracheobronchial tract at H. Adam Malik General Hospital in Medan in this observational descriptive study. The percentage of sexes who suffered from foreign body aspirations was higher in males with a total number of 36 (72%) compared to 14 females (28%). The highest prevalence of foreign body aspirations was found in children under 3 years old, consisting of 13 patients (26.0%), followed by 24 patients aged 3-5 years old (48%). Of the symptoms, cough was most frequently reported by patients (88%), and choking (66%) was second most frequently reported. Toys were the most frequent foreign body found in the body with 29 patients (58%) and the most common location of foreign bodies in patients was in the tracheobronchial tract, on the right bronchus, with 25 reported cases (50%). Foreign body aspiration is most common in children, especially for boys aged 3-5 years. The most common symptom is coughing with choking. The location of the foreign body was most often found in the right bronchus.
Key words: Aspiration, foreign body, tracheobronchial.
