Perbedaan Kadar Albumin Plasma Pada Pasien Sebelum dan Setelah Menjalani Rawat Inap di RSUD PROF. DR Margono Soekarjo Purwokerto
Abstract: The malnutrition
rate in Indonesian hospital was hightly about 75%. The determinant of nutrition
states with biochemically known by the concentration of plasma albumin. Albumin
is the protein of the highest concentration in plasma. Albumin transports many small
molecules in the blood (for example: bilirubin, calcium, progesterone, and
drugs). It is also of prime importance in maintaining the oncotic pressure of
the blood (that is, keeping the fluid from leaking out into the tissues).
Decreased albumin may also be caused by malnutrition or a low protein diet. The
aims of this research was to determine change in albumin before and after
hospitalization in Margono Soekarjo Hospital, Purwokerto. It was analytic
research with cross sectional study. The study population consisted of 69
subjects. The albumin concentrations was determined at before and after
hospitalization. The average of albumin concentrations before and after
hospitalization were 2,88 g/L and 2,52 g/L respectively. The t test showed that
albumin concentrations after hospitalization decrease significantly
(p<0,005).
