Abstract

Latar belakang: Luka kanker merupakan salah satu komplikasi dari kanker stadium lanjut. Salah satu masalah dari luka ganas adalah bau busuk yang sangat menganggu. Beberapa terapi yang dapat digunakan untuk mengendalikan bau adalah poliheksametilen binguanida (PHMB), teh hijau, madu manuka, nanopartikel perak nanokristalin dan metronidazole. Scooping review ini mengevaluasi penggunaan metronidazole dalam mengendalikan bau pada pasien luka kanker  di rumah sakit. Metode: Scooping review menggunakan kerangka oleh Arkey and O'Malley. Untuk literature penelitian dilakukan pada enam database, yaitu pubmed, science direct, cohcran libray, garuda, willey, secondary research dari 2015-2025. Kriteria inklusi berfokus penggunaan metronidazole pada pasien yang mengalami bau busuk pada kanker di rumah sakit. Hasil: Dari artikel 469 yang diperiksa, hanya 8 artikel yang memenuhi kriteria dan telah dimasukkan dalam review ini. Hasil review menunjukkan bahwa metronidazole mampu mengendalikan bau busuk pada luka kanker, dalam berbagai sediaan; metronidazole bubuk, gel metronidazole 0,75%, kombinasi metronidazole dan zink oksida, larutanb metronidazole 0.8%, dan metronidazole oral. Kesimpulan: Scooping review ini memberikan pemahamann yang komprehensif tentang sediaan metronidazole terbukti mengendalikan bau busuk pada luka kanker. Diharapkan pemberian terapi metronidazole dapat diintegrasikan dalam protokol pengelolaan bau di rumah sakit.
