CASE STUDY: THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ANKLE PUMP EXERCISE AND WARM COMPRESSES IN REDUCING THE DEGREE OF LEG OEDEMA IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE (CKD)
Get PDFIntroduction: One of the most common clinical manifestations in CKD patients is leg oedema. Oedema that is not treated promptly leads to several complications such as ischaemia due to reduced tissue function, reduced mobility, skin infections such as cellulitis or ulcers in chronic oedema. Oedema can be managed with non-pharmacological therapies such as a combination of ankle pumping and warm compresses. Purpose: This study aims to describe the reduction in the degree of leg oedema in patients with CKD after administration of ankle pump exercise and warm compresses. Methods: This research is a case study with a nursing approach to CKD patients with oedema. Participants in this study were 3 CKD patients with leg oedema. Interventions were carried out on 3 consecutive days within 15-20 minutes of each session. Pre- and post-measurements of the degree of oedema were made at each session. Discussion: Oedema is a condition resulting from an increase in hydrostatic pressure in the blood vessels, which causes the veins to become blocked and plasma fluid to accumulate in the interstitial spaces. The results of the measurement of the degree of oedema showed that two participants experienced a decrease in the degree of oedema from degree 3 to 2 and one participant experienced a decrease from degree 2 to 1. Conclusion: A combination of ankle pump exercise and warm compresses can reduce the degree of leg oedema in patients with CKD and can be used independently by patients and families
CLASSROOM-BASED PANCASILA CHARACTER EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN RURAL TROPICAL PRIMARY SCHOOLS
Get PDFThis study aims to explore the implementation of classroom-based Pancasila character education in rural primary schools as a strategic approach to sustainable human development in tropical communities. A qualitative descriptive method was used, with data collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews with teachers and principals, and document analysis of lesson plans and character education materials. Data were analyzed manually through thematic coding using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing techniques. The findings show that classroom-based character education practices are contextually integrated with local wisdom and community culture. Pancasila values such as mutual cooperation, nationalism, and religious tolerance are applied through storytelling, collaborative projects, and reflective dialogues. Despite limited infrastructure and resources, schools demonstrate innovative approaches in fostering students’ moral and civic competencies. This study contributes to the fields of education and sustainable development by emphasizing the importance of contextual character education in shaping responsible, community-oriented individuals. The integration of national ideology with locally grounded pedagogical strategies proves effective in supporting character development and social sustainability in rural tropical areas
Modulatory Effect of Guava Leaf Extract on Liver Tissue in Hypercholesterolemic Rats (Rattus norvegicus)
Get PDFBackground: Hypercholesterolemia is a global health issue with high prevalence, contributing to conditions such as Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) & Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH). Conventional therapies, although effective, have side effects. Guava leaf extract (Psidium guajava) is known for its hepatoprotective & antioxidant effects, but research on its impact on liver histopathology in the context of hypercholesterolemia remains limited. Objectives: To investigate the effect of Psidium guajava leaf extract on the histopathological picture of the liver in Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) with a hypercholesterolemia model. Methods: This experimental study used a post-test only control design. The experiment utilized a completely randomized design with four groups. Data analysis was performed univariately &bivariately. The research sample consisted of 28 Wistar rats, divided into 4 groups of 7 rats each. The rats were induced with a high-fat diet for 2 weeks to induce hypercholesterolemia, followed by treatment with guava leaf extract via gavage for 2 weeks. After termination, histopathological scoring of the liver was performed. Bivariate analysis was conducted using One-Way ANOVA & post hoc LSD tests. Key findings: Univariate analysis showed the highest mean liver damage score in the sick control group (4.00 ± 0.632) &the lowest in the group receiving guava leaf extract before hypercholesterolemia induction (1.33 ± 1.366). Bivariate analysis revealed significant differences between the healthy control &sick control groups (p = 0.00), as well as between the sick control & the guava leaf extract treatment group (p = 0.00). Guava leaf extract was found to reduce liver damage due to hypercholesterolemia, supporting its potential as an ameliorative & hepatoprotective agent. Conclusions: The administration of Psidium guajava leaf extract significantly influenced the histopathological score of the liver in Wistar rats induced with hypercholesterolemia. This result is supported by significant statistical differences in the histopathological liver scores across the four groups overall

Determining the Distribution of Nickel Enrichment Zone in Sorowako Area and Surroundings, Nuha District, East Luwu Regency, South Sulawesi
Get PDFThe downstream policy forces the nickel mining sector to build new smelters which are claimed to be able to process nickel ore material in the limonite to saprolite zones, so a method is needed to prove the existence of nickel potential in the limonite zone. In this case, the method used is modeling nickel enrichment zone deposits. This research uses collar data of 218 drill points and geological domain data of 8,092 datums. The optimal potential for laterite nickel deposits is explored by entering the geological control of the deposit domain and expressing the nickel enrichment zone model so that the slice volume percentage in the limonite and saprolite zones is known. Based on the results of modeling the nickel enrichment zone in the research area located in Sorowako, South Sulawesi, it shows that the nickel enrichment zone has a volume of 4,190,500 cubic meters (m3). The nickel enrichment zone is known to have no intersection with the bedrock zone, but has an intersection with limonite domains of 33%, and saprolite domains of 67%. As additional information, it is known that the laterite deposits are around 30 meters thick with a nickel enrichment zone at a depth of 10 meters to 25 meters from the surfac
