Abstract

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) among pregnant women remains a public health concern because it increases the risk of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. The Indonesian government implemented the Supplementary Feeding Program (PMT) to improve the nutritional status of vulnerable pregnant women. This study evaluated the effectiveness of PMT in improving nutritional indicators among pregnant women with CED in the Sangowo Primary Health Care coverage area. A pre-experimental single-group pretest–posttest design was used involving 60 pregnant women with CED selected through total sampling. Mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) and body weight were measured before and after 90 days of nutritional supplementation. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired t-test at α = 0.05. Mean MUAC increased from 22.34 ± 0.74 cm to 23.68 ± 0.81 cm, while mean body weight increased from 49.82 ± 5.28 kg to 52.11 ± 5.36 kg. The paired t-test showed a statistically significant improvement in nutritional indicators (p < 0.001). PMT significantly improved nutritional indicators among pregnant women with CED. Continued implementation should include nutrition education, adherence monitoring, and clinical management.
