Abstract

Background: Academic mentors are needed to help students start and develop some parts of professional competence that may be hidden in medical education programs and constantly evolving over time. Academic mentorship model research has been developed in the context of medical education in European and North American countries, which have different cultural contexts from Eastern countries. Therefore, students’ perspective for the model of valued academic mentorship in this context needs to be explored further to become a recommendation for faculties in providing academic mentorship to students. The study aimed to explore how undergraduate medical students perceive the valuable academic mentoring model.Methods: This study used qualitative approach. Seventeen medical students of Universitas Kristen Duta Wacana (UKDW) from year 2018-2021 were divided into 2 focus group discussions. Thematic analysis was applied to analyse the findings. Results: The FGD raised the themes of students' perspectives on valuable academic mentorship if there is a good mentors-students relationship, providing support, hope and role models, flexibility, and effectiveness of academic mentorship, as well as students' hopes for academic mentorship in the future.Conclusion: Academic mentorship is a guidance that provides hope and support according to student needs. The models of valuable academic mentorship according to students is if there is flexibility in mentoring time and effective communication. Future mentoring models should describe future career opportunities and professionalism as a doctor.

Abstract

Introduction: Bronchitis is a primary cause of hospitalization in toddlers due to acute respiratory infections (ARI). Hospitalization is particularly necessary in this age group because their immature immune systems render them highly vulnerable to complications such as respiratory failure and secondary infections. Elevated, inflammatory responses reflected by increased leukocyte counts necessitate close clinical monitoring and intensive care to prevent deterioration. Therefore, inpatient care plays a crucial role in ensuring the clinical stability and effective recovery of toddlers with bronchitis. This study analyzed the predictive factors influencing the length of hospital stay in toddlers with bronchitis treated at Bethesda Hospital, Yogyakarta. Methods: This study employed a quantitative approach using an observational analytic method with a cross-sectional design. Data were collected from 90 medical records of 105 hospitalized toddlers aged 1-59 months due to bronchitis in 2023. Age, sex, nutritional status, hemoglobin (Hb) levels, and leukocyte count were the analyzed variables. The data were analyzed using Chi-square and logistic regression. Results: Age and leukocyte count were significantly associated with the length of hospital stay (p<0.05). Younger toddlers were more likely to experience prolonged hospitalization (adjusted odds ratio/OR=0.242), while an increased leukocyte count (leukocytosis) elevated the risk of a longer hospital stay (adjusted OR=4.137). Other variables, including sex, nutritional status, and Hb levels, did not significantly influence prolonged hospitalization. Conclusion: Age and leukocyte count were predictive factors for the length of hospital stay in toddlers with bronchitis at Bethesda Hospital, Yogyakarta, in 2023.
