Abstract

Stunting is a condition in which the length/height of a toddler is less when compared to age. Body length/height of toddlers is seen based on the z-score value less than minus two (-2 SD). Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem caused by various factors and is intergenerational. This study was conducted to know the effect of food consumption patterns, dietary restrictions, and family socio-economic factors on the incidence of stunting in children under five in the work area of the Mananga Health Center. This type of research is an analytical observational study with a case-control design. The population of this study is mothers who have children under five aged 24-59 months and a sample of 96 people. The data collected were analyzed using the Chi-Square test. The results of the bivariate analysis showed variables of food consumption patterns (p=0,000), dietary restrictions (p=0,001), and family socioeconomic factors (education p=0,000, occupation p=0,000, the number of family members p=0,000, and the income p=0,000) has an effect on the incidence of stunting in children under five in the work area of the Mananga Health Center. Therefore, it is recommended that mothers who have children under five can change their children’s food consumption patterns starting from the selection of food, the type of good food and the frequency of eating their children for early treatment, as well as the need for monitoring the growth of toddlers by measuring their height regularly through Posyandu in the area health center work.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a condition of failure to thrive in children under five years old (children under five) due to chronic malnutrition in the First 1000 Days of Life (HPK) and is based on the BB/U or TB/U index with a z-score limit of less than -2 SD to - 3 SD. Stunting can be caused by several factors, namely exclusive breastfeeding, father's education, mother's education, family income, number of children. The purpose of this study is to determine the factors associated with the incidence of stunting in the Naibonat Village, Kupang Regency in 2022. Subjects and Method: This is a case-control study conducted in Naibonat Village, East Kupang, Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara, in September-October 2022. There were 134 children under five consisting of 67 stunted children under five and 67 children under five who were not stunted. The dependent variable is the incidence of stunting. The independent variables were exclusive breastfeeding, history of infectious diseases, father's education, mother's education, family income, history of LBW, and number of children. Data were collected using observation sheets and analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: Not exclusively breastfed (OR= 4.12; 95% CI= 1.84 to 9.24; p< 0.001), history of father's education was low (OR= 0.34; 95% CI= 0.13 to 0.89; p= 0.024), history of mother's education was low (OR= 0.17; 95% CI= 0.04 to 0.65; p= 0.004), low family income (OR= 0.23; 95% CI= 0.08 to 0.62; p= 0.002), and history of LBW (OR= 0.48; 95% CI= 0.40 to 0.51; p= 0.042) related to the incidence of stunting, and statistically significant. Conclusion: A history of exclusive breastfeeding, a history of low father education, a history of low maternal education, low family income, and a history of LBW are statistically related to the incidence of stunting.

Abstract

Abstrak COVID-19 adalah penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh coronavirus yang baru ditemukan pada tahun 2019 di Wuhan, Tiongkok. COVID-19 kini menjadi sebuah pandemi yang mengancam seluruh dunia. Tidak sedikit masyarakat yang menciptakan stigma terkait penyakit ini, sehingga para penyintas Covid-19 biasanya ditakuti dan sangat dijauhi oleh masyarakat yang belum benar-benar memahami tentang penyakit ini. Tujuan PkM ini adalah untuk mengurangi stigma negatif terhadap para penyintas Covid-19 dengan memanfaatkan media promosi kesehatan berupa video, poster, dan stiker yang dipasang pada empat gereja yang tersebar di Kota Kupang, yaitu GMIT Pohonitas Manulai II, GMIT Kota Kupang, GMIT Paulus, dan GMIT Ararat. Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan dengan pembuatan, pemasangan, penayangan, dan penyebarluasan media promosi kesehatan tersebut. Media visual dan audio visual tersebut dipasang dan ditayangkan pada lokasi target, yaitu empat tempat ibadah (gereja) yaitu GMIT Pohonitas Manulai II, GMIT Kota Kupang, GMIT Paulus, dan GMIT Ararat. Kegiatan ini dapat dijalankan dengan baik, namun mengalami kendala karena kegiatan dilaksanakan pada saat keadaan pandemi Covid-19 di Kota Kupang mencapai PPKM level empat, sehingga tempat-tempat kebaktian ditutup untuk sementara waktu. Untuk itu kegiatan dapat dilakukan ketika tempat kebaktian kembali dibuka. Berdasarkan hasil observasi, dengan respon positif gereja menerima semua media promosi kesehatan yang diberikan. Kata kunci: Covid-19, stigma negatif, penyintas, promosi kesehatan, media. Abstract COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a new coronavirus that was discovered in 2019 in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 is now a pandemic that threatens the whole world. Not a few people have created a stigma related to this disease, so Covid-19 survivors are usually feared and very shunned by people who don't understand this disease. This acitivity aimed to reduce the negative stigma towards Covid-19 survivors by utilizing health promotion media i.e. videos, posters, and stickers for four churches in Kupang City, i.e. GMIT Pohonitas Manulai II, GMIT Kota Kupang, GMIT Paulus, and GMIT Ararat. This activity is carried out by creating, setting, broadcasting, and disseminating the health promotion media. The visual and audiovisual media were posted and broadcast at the target locations (four churches). This activity can be carried out well but has encountered problems because the activity was carried out when the Covid-19 pandemic in Kupang City reached PPKM level four, so the church were temporarily closed. For this reason, activities can be carried out when the church is re-opened. Based on the results of observations, with a positive response, the church accepted all the health promotion media provided.
