The Potential of Red Betel Leaf Essential Oil (Piper Crocatum Ruiz & Pav) as an Anti-Bleeding in the Management of Corona Virus Infection
Marsal Rispandi , Novita Sari Harahap *, Rima Mediyana
Abstract
Coronavirus can also harm the vascular system and cause bleeding; this damage to the
vascular system might be followed by dysfunctions in other body systems, therefore not a
few COVID-19 survivors have experienced a stroke as a complication of COVID-19. Bleeding
that occurs in the nose is a common condition that occurs as a result of a person's injury,
allergies, or platelet levels that are declining. There are several simple ways to stop this
bleeding, but for Indonesians betel leaf is a widely chosen traditional treatment. The
subjects of experimental animal studies were divided into 4 groups. The results of the Anova
test analysis showed that there was a significant difference in average platelet levels
(p=0.05) in the 4 groups. The results showed that the lowest average thrombocytes and
hematocrit levels were found in group 2, namely the group that was given LPS without being
given betel leaf essential oil. The highest average thrombocytes and hematocrit levels were
found in group 3, namely the group that was first given betel leaf essential oil, after which it
was only applied LPS. Red Betel Leaf Essential Oil has the potential as an anti-bleeding in
research subjects induced with infectious materials characterized by increasing average
platelet levels and Hematocrit as components that play a role in the blood clotting process.
