Introduction: Dengue fever is a viral infection transmitted through the bite of infected female Aedes aegypti mosquito, caused by four dengue virus serotypes (DEN-1 to DEN-4), with clinical manifestations ranging from asymptomatic to severe disease and may be accompanied by warning sign. Concurrent infections, such as acute diarrhea, may worsen outcomes, particularly in children. Case Report: A nine-month-old female presented with a five-day history of intermittent fever and watery diarrhea. Additional symptoms included vomiting, lethargy, and decreased appetite. Physical examination showed a moderately ill appearance and sunken eyes. Laboratory findings revealed positive dengue IgM, negative dengue IgG, thrombocytopenia (22,000/µL), and hematocrit of 37%. The patient was diagnosed with dengue fever with warning sign and acute diarrhea. Management included intravenous crystalloid fluids, antipyretics, antibiotics, H2 receptor antagonists, and zinc supplementation. Conclusion: Dengue with warning sign and concurrent acute diarrhea in children increases the risk of morbidity and mortality. Early and appropriate management is essential to prevent disease progression and improve clinical outcomes.

Introduction: The incidence of ARI in children is estimated at 0.29 cases per child/year in developing countries and 0.05 cases per child/year in developed countries. There are 156 million cases of ISPA and most of them occur in India (43 million), China (21 million) and Pakistan (10 million) as well as Bangladesh, Indonesia and Nigeria with 6 million cases each. Of all ISPA cases that occur in the community, 7-13% are serious cases and require serious cases and require hospital treatment. Method: This research is a pre-experimental research with one group pre-post test design.Results: The results of the study showed that there was an effect of giving water vapor therapy and eucalyptus oil on reducing the frequency of ineffective airway clearance in children at RSIA Sitti Khadijah, Gorontalo City because it was found that the average frequency of coughing was 10.33 times per day before and after giving honey. Of 2.5 cc every day for 3 days, it was found that the average cough frequency decreased to 5.73 times per day so it can be seen that the difference between the cough frequency before and after was 4.6 times per day. Therefore, giving water vapor therapy and eucalyptus oil to children who are experiencing airway clearance is not effective in reducing the frequency of coughing.Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that there is an effect of giving water vapor therapy and eucalyptus oil on ineffective airway clearance in children at RSIA Sitti Khadijah, Gorontalo City with a significant value of 0.000.

Nursing documentation is an essential part of healthcare services, playing a key role in communication, care continuity, and serving as legal evidence. The introduction of the Hospital Management Information System (SIMRS) aims to improve the efficiency of documentation processes. However, high workloads in critical areas such as the Emergency Department (IGD) and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) may influence nurse compliance with documentation protocols. This study investigates the relationship between workload and nursing documentation compliance during the implementation of SIMRS at RSUD Haji Makassar's IGD and ICU. A quantitative cross-sectional design was used, with 30 nurses participating (total sampling). The workload was assessed using the NASA Task Load Index (NASA-TLX), while compliance was evaluated through a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using Chi-Square and Fisher’s Exact Test. The results showed that the majority of respondents experienced heavy workloads (83.3%), and most had compliant documentation (96.7%). However, the statistical analysis yielded a p-value of 1.000, indicating no significant relationship between workload and documentation compliance. Based on these findings, the study recommends optimizing SIMRS usage and providing ongoing training to ensure improved compliance with nursing documentation practices.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is one of the personality assessment tools that is often used to identify individual psychological tendencies, including in the context of higher education. In the student environment, MBTI is widely used as a means of self-introduction, adjustment of learning styles, increasing the effectiveness of group work, and career planning. This article aims to examine the relevance of the application of MBTI among students using a literature study approach. The research method used is in the form of a review of various literature sources, such as scientific journals, books, and academic articles that discuss the basic concept of MBTI, its implementation in the field of education, and critical views regarding its limitations. The results of the study show that MBTI has a fairly relevant role as a non-diagnostic instrument in helping students understand their potential, learning preferences, and social and academic interaction patterns. In addition, the appropriate use of MBTI can support improved learning quality, teamwork effectiveness, and academic counseling services. However, a number of literature highlights the limitations of MBTI, especially regarding aspects of validity and reliability, so it is not recommended to be used as the sole basis for academic or psychological decision-making. Thus, MBTI remains relevant for students if used wisely, contextually, and based on a strong scientific foundation to support students' academic and personality development.

Introduction: Bronchopneumonia is an inflammatory lung condition involving one or more lobes, characterized by patchy infiltrates commonly caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae (30–50% of cases), followed by Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae in more severe infections. Clinical manifestations include high fever, restlessness, dyspnea, rapid and shallow breathing accompanied by rales, vomiting, and either dry or productive cough. Respiratory infections may trigger inflammatory responses that increase excessive mucus production. Case Illustration: A 1-year-5-month-old girl weighing 7.9 kg presented to RSUD Ir. Soekarno Sukoharjo with shortness of breath and intermittent fever for six days, accompanied by vomiting, decreased appetite and fluid intake, cough, weakness, runny nose, and oral sores. Physical examination revealed a weak general condition, compos mentis consciousness, dyspnea, wheezing, and fine wet rales in both lung bases. Dysmorphic facial features consistent with Down syndrome were observed. Laboratory findings showed leukopenia, eosinopenia, and elevated RDW-CV, while chest radiography indicated bilateral bronchopneumonia. Management included intravenous fluids, antibiotics, antipyretics, antiemetics, and bronchodilators. The patient was diagnosed with sixth-day fever due to bronchopneumonia, mild-to-moderate dehydration, recurrent nausea and vomiting, atrial septal defect, and Down syndrome.
