. Phlebitis is the area of skin around an intravascular catheter that is swollen, red, hot and painful. The aim of this research is to find out how nurses prevent phlebitis in patients. For this research, the design used is descriptive. The population consisted of all inpatients who were placed on an IV by a nurse in the emergency room and then admitted to the hospital. Data was collected using probability sampling techniques using the Slovin formula for 69 samples, using checklists and observation sheets, and analyzed using frequency distribution. The results of research conducted on 69 nurses in the Thamrin Medan inpatient room showed that there was an increase in the actions of respondents before the training was carried out. The majority had "bad" actions, namely 39 people (65.5%), 30 people (43.5%) had "good" actions. %). After the phlebitis prevention training was carried out, the results showed that those with "bad" actions decreased to 24 people (34.8%) and those with "good" actions increased to 45 people (65.2%). The results of the study showed that nurses' actions in preventing phlebitis averaged a score of 8, a minimum score of 4 and a maximum score of 10. This happened because the majority of nurses had taken action to prevent nosocomial infections well, so it was seen that there was a change in nurses' behavior before and after after training in phlebitis prevention at Bunda Thamrin Hospital, Medan.

Background: Preclampsia is a one of complication in pregnancy characterised by systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg and proteinuria (≥300mg/24hours in urine; protein/creatinine ≥0.3; dipstick protein +1; and/or with additional symptoms. Eclampsia is a severe form of preeclampsia where the mother experiences seizures and/or coma.  There are various risk factors for preeclampsia and eclampsia, one of which is the mother's body mass index (BMI). Excessive maternal weight before pregnancy, as well as excessive weight gain during pregnancy are at risk for preeclampsia. Methods: This study used medical records from the Ciawi General Hospital in 2020, and cross-sectional observational study was carried out. Pregnant women with eclampsia and preeclampsia were the study's population. This study used total sampling as its sampling method, and body mass index measurements were made using information from medical records. The Kruskall Wallis alternative test was utilized in place of the One Way Anova as the hypothesis test in this investigation. In this investigation, a 5% level of significance is expected. Results: This study involved 190 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. The statistical test results showed no significant difference in mean body mass index between the eclampsia, severe preeclampsia, and mild preeclampsia groups (P-value: 0.688). This difference is expected due to the small number of samples and/or the high variability of the samples. Conclusion: Based on the results of the study, there was no significant association between body mass index and mild, severe, and eclampsia. Further research should be conducted and developed for prevention and lifestyle intervention in preeclampsia.
