Abstract

Water is an essential nutrient needed by the body. Humans cannot produce water to meet their bodily fluid needs. Data in 2016 on fluid intake in Indonesia shows that 22% of children aged 4-9 have deficiency fluids, 21% in children aged 10-17 years, and 28% at 18-65. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the level of knowledge about body fluids and hydration status in medical students of the Faculty of Medicine, University of North Sumatra. This type of research is analytic with a cross-sectional design and using a simple random sampling technique with 99 students as the research sample. The variables studied were the level of knowledge measured by a questionnaire and the hydration status obtained by comparing the urine color with the PURI card. The results showed that most of the samples had a moderate level of knowledge about fluids (51.5%) and were dehydrated (48.5%). From the results of statistical tests using Chi-squared with ? value = 0.05, it is known that there is a relationship between the level of knowledge and hydration status (p = 0.034).

Abstract

Down syndrome (DS) is a chromosome 21 condition that leads to abnormalities in a number of organs, unusual facial traits, as well as intellectual and developmental problems. It takes more time, effort, and patience to raise kids with DS, which makes it a hard undertaking. Another challenging difficulty is the significant amounts of stress and sadness that DS parents experience. With the help of strategies and local values, this program seeks to educate parents of DS patients so they may create social change (positive deviation). This service is provided in two stages, socialization and education, as well as genetic counseling, to help influence social change in society, particularly in families with DS children. According to socialization research findings, the biggest health issues for kids with DS are metabolic and dietary issues. During discussion, parents' emotional states were also exposed. In order to learn more about the family history of genetic illnesses and risk factors, parents receive genetic counseling. A variety of experts are involved in this service's education, including psychologists, psychiatrists, and pediatricians, who can give an overview of how to appropriately care for DS.
