Perbandingan Kelembaban Kulit Pada Lesi Dan Non Lesi Penderita Psoriasis Vulgaris Menggunakan Skin Analyzer Di Kota Pekanbaru
ABSTRACT
Psoriasis vulgaris is a genetic autoimmune disease in the form of chronic inflammation. In the lesions, raised red spots are found due to disruption of epidermal proliferation, where turnover time in psoriasis vulgaris occurs more quickly, causing damage to the skin barrier, increased evaporation of water, and a decrease in skin moisture, which can be determined through TEWL (transepidermal water loss) levels, namely the amount of water that comes out of the skin. the body through the stratum corneum is measured using a Skin Analyzer. The aim of this study was to determine the comparison of skin moisture in lesions and non-lesions in psoriasis vulgaris sufferers using a skin analyzer. This research is an analytical study, with a cross sectional design conducted on 23 outpatients from the Skin and Venereology Polyclinic at Petala Bumi Regional Hospital and Arifin Achmad Regional Hospital using a consecutive sampling method. The results of this study showed that the majority of respondents are women and the majority are in the 31-45 year range. From 23 samples, the median moisture content of skin with psoriasis vulgaris lesions was 14,70% (dry) and the median moisture content of non-psoriasis vulgaris lesion skin was 44,30% (normal). Based on the research, the results obtained from comparing the moisture of lesional and non-lesional skin of psoriasis vulgaris sufferers using the Mann Whitney test, p value = 0.000 (p < 0.05), it can be concluded that there is a significant difference between the moisture of lesional and non-lesional skin of psoriasis vulgaris sufferers.
