Abstract

This study aims to determine the relationship between the characteristics of responsibility, discipline, and hard work with the academic achievement of students at the Faculty of Education, State University of Medan. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach with a correlational design. The research subjects were 25 students of the 2023 batch from several study programs at the Faculty of Education selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data collection was conducted through an online questionnaire based on Google Forms that measured students' dominant character traits and academic indicators, such as Grade Point Average (GPA), academic engagement, organizational activity, and learning behavior. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques with the help of the Jamovi application. The results showed that most students had positive dominant character traits, namely responsibility, discipline, and hard work. The average student GPA was 3.60, which is classified as good. The research findings indicate a positive relationship between dominant character traits and student academic achievement, where students with higher levels of responsibility, discipline, and hard work tend to have better academic achievement. This study emphasizes the importance of character development as an internal factor that supports student academic success in higher education.

Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a major public health problem with a continuously increasing prevalence, requiring accurate and continuous blood glucose monitoring. Venous blood glucose measurement using enzymatic methods remains the clinical gold standard; however, it is invasive and less practical for routine monitoring. Recent advances in sensor technology provide opportunities to develop more practical and user-friendly glucose monitoring devices. This preliminary pilot study aimed to develop and validate a needle-free sensor-based device for blood glucose monitoring and to evaluate the agreement of its measurement results with venous blood glucose examination using enzymatic methods as the reference standard. This study employed a research and development approach. The initial stage involved designing and developing a prototype sensor that monitors blood glucose without a needle. Device validation was conducted by experts to assess technical performance, safety, and usability. Subsequently, a pilot measurement of random blood glucose levels was performed among 25 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in a primary healthcare setting, and the measurement results were compared with venous blood glucose values obtained using enzymatic methods. The validation results indicated that the device was technically feasible, safe to use, and easy to operate. Pilot testing demonstrated that the sensor-based device produced blood glucose measurements comparable to those from the reference method (Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test: Z = 0.000, p = 1.000), providing preliminary evidence of statistical similarity. However, further refinement is required, particularly in the interpretation and display of measurement results. These findings represent initial proof-of-concept for the device as an alternative tool for blood glucose monitoring, especially in primary healthcare settings and for patient self-monitoring. Comprehensive studies with larger, more diverse samples and advanced clinical agreement analyses (Bland-Altman plots, and MARD) are needed to confirm clinical accuracy and reliability.

Abstract

Hipertensi merupakan masalah kesehatan utama pada lansia yang berhubungan dengan peningkatan risiko komplikasi kardiovaskular, penurunan kemampuan fungsional, dan kualitas hidup, terutama pada lansia yang tinggal di panti sosial. Pengelolaan hipertensi melalui asuhan keperawatan yang komprehensif dan berkelanjutan menjadi sangat penting. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan manajemen asuhan keperawatan pada pasien lansia dengan hipertensi di panti sosial melalui pendekatan studi kasus. Penelitian menggunakan desain studi kasus deskriptif pada seorang pasien perempuan berusia 78 tahun dengan diagnosis hipertensi. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui pengkajian keperawatan komprehensif yang meliputi pengukuran tekanan darah, Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), Indeks Barthel, dan Berg Balance Scale. Intervensi keperawatan difokuskan pada perawatan jantung dan manajemen energi, yang meliputi posisi semi-Fowler, pengaturan diet rendah garam dan lemak, terapi pijat kaki sebagai intervensi relaksasi, serta latihan fisik ringan berupa latihan rentang gerak. Hasil menunjukkan adanya perbaikan tekanan darah secara bertahap, peningkatan kenyamanan dan relaksasi, serta meningkatnya motivasi pasien untuk melakukan aktivitas fisik harian. Kesimpulannya, asuhan keperawatan holistik yang mengintegrasikan perawatan jantung, manajemen energi, dan terapi komplementer berperan penting dalam mengoptimalkan pengelolaan hipertensi pada lansia di panti sosial.
