Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem characterized by a child's height that is lower than the standard of age which can occur in the first 1000 days of a child's life, and is one of the main indicators of children's health status in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze factors related to the incidence of stunting in children aged 24-59 months in Rancatungku Village, Bandung Regency. The research design was based on a case control approach of 1:1 ratio between the case group and the control group with a total of 206 respondents. The sampling technique in this study is accidental sampling. Data were processed and analyzed univariate, bivariate and multivariate with Chi-Square assays. This study found a meaningful relationship between body length p-value 0.019, education p-value 0.037, history of exclusive breastfeeding p-value 0.002, protein intake p-value 0.007 and history of infectious disease p-value 0.029 with stunting incidence. And the dominant variable related to stunting incidence is the history of exclusive breastfeeding. This study suggests that health workers provide education and counselling on the importance of exclusive breastfeeding and training Integrated Health Service Post cadres so that they are more skilled and can disseminate information about stunting.

Abstract

Introduction: The performance of midwives in providing Antenatal Care (ANC) services plays a critical role in improving maternal and neonatal health. ANC services must be delivered according to established standards to ensure quality outcomes. Objective: This study aimed to assess the performance of midwives in ANC services at Health Centres across Bandung Regency, focusing on five key components: service quality, communication, capability, speed, and initiative. Method: This study employed a descriptive quantitative research design. The research was conducted in Health Centres across Bandung Regency, with a total sample of 30 midwives selected using total sampling. Data were analyzed descriptively to determine performance levels across the components. Results and Discussion: The findings showed that most midwives demonstrated good performance. Specifically, 90% showed good performance in the service quality component, 66.7% in communication, 53.3% in capability, 63.3% in speed, and 53.3% in initiative. These results indicate that while the overall performance is satisfactory, improvements are still needed in several areas, particularly in capability and initiative. Conclusion: The performance of midwives in ANC services across Bandung Regency is generally good. However, enhancing ANC classes for pregnant women and utilizing online platforms for maternal health monitoring are recommended to further improve service delivery and maternal outcomes.
