Objective: To compare the prevalence of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) on the first day and the seventh day postpartum in Caesarian section patient Method: This cross-sectional study utilized the ICIQ-FLUTS LF (ICIQ-Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms-Long Form) and a questionnaire to screen for risk factors among postpartum patients who underwent C-section delivery at Santo Antonius Hospital, Pontianak, West Kalimantan. Data were collected twice, 12 hours after urinary catheter removal and on the seventh day of the postpartum period. The study sample consisted of 95 respondents. Results: Among the 111 total respondents, the majority were under 35 years old, multiparous, classified as obese, had no family history of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS), and had not used diuretics or traditional medicine. Significant differences were observed in the prevalence of LUTS between the first and seventh days of the postpartum period. Most symptoms showed a decrease on the seventh day, except for six symptoms: insensible urinary incontinence, hesitancy, urinary retention, feeling of incomplete emptying, bladder pain, and dysuria, which increased. Conclusion: In conclusion, our study suggests that the duration of the postpartum period affects the prevalence of LUTS following C-section delivery. However, it's important to acknowledge the limitations of this study, which may impact the understanding of LUTS progression during the postpartum period. Conclusion: In conclusion, we concluded that the duration of the postpartum period affects the LUTS after delivery with the method of C-section, but this study has many limitations which may affect the progressivity of LUTS in the Postpartum period. Keywords: Caesarean Section, ICIQ FLUTS Long From, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms, Postpartum period Abstrak Tujuan: Untuk membandingkan prevalensi Gejala Saluran Kemih Bawah di hari pertama dan hari ketujuh postpartum pada pasien Sectio Caesarea. Metode: Desain penelitian berupa studi potong li.ntang dengan pengumpulan data menggunakan kuesioner terstruktur ICIQ FLUTS-LF dan kuesioner skrining dasar penelitian yang dilakukan 2 kali yaitu 12 jam setelah pelepasan kateter dan postpartum hari ke 7. Subjek penelitian ini adalah semua ibu postpartum dengan metode SC yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi penelitian di RS Santo Antonius Pontianak, Kalimantan Barat. Jumlah sampel pada penelitian ini adalah 95 responden Hasil: Pada penelitian ini didapatkan subjek sebesar 111 responden yang mayoritasnya berusia kurang dari sama dengan 35 tahun, multipara, status gizinya obesitas, tidak memiliki riwayat keluarga yang mengalami LUTS, tidak mengkonsumsi obat-obatan tradisional dan obat-obatan diuretik. Terdapat perbedaan signifikan di prevalensi LUTS hari 1 dan 7 postpartum SC dengan mayoritas dari 16 gejala LUTS yang didata mengalami penurunan di hari ketujuh dibanding hari pertama, terkecuali 6 gejala LUTS yang mengalami peningkatan di hari ketujuh yaitu Insensible Urinary Incontinence, Hesitansi, retensio urin, perasaan tidak lampias setelah berkemih, nyeri kandung kemih, serta disuria. Kesimpulan: Dalam penelitian ini, peneliti menyimpulkan bahwa durasi masa postpartum berpengaruh pada keluhan LUTS yang dialami pasca persalinan secara Sectio Caesarea, akan tetapi, penelitian ini memiliki keterbatasan yang dimana terdapat banyak oleh faktor-faktor risiko tertentu yang dapat berpengaruh terhadap progresivitas LUTS Kata kunci: Sectio Caesarea, ICIQ FLUTS Long Form, Gejala Saluran Kemih Bawah, Masa Pasca Persalinan, Masa nifas, Postpartum

Due to the increasing risk posed on satellites from space debris, requirements are now being implemented into satellites to be launched in the future to prevent the release of additional debris. One of the key requirements is the electrical passivation of satellites at end of mission (EoM) in order to prevent the break-up of satellites due to the stored energy in the power subsystem. In order to comply with these new specifications and find suitable solutions for the upcoming missions, a set of workshops and R&D activities have been initiated and conducted in the past few years. In particular it has provided a better understanding of the environmental constraints and the battery safety after EoM, together with the identification of the most appropriate implementations for electrical passivation. The latest available results of these activities and the ongoing work are presented within this paper. In addition, new spacecraft under development are currently implementing electrical passivation solutions taking into account the conclusions of these studies.
