Abstract

Salah satu penyakit genetic yang biasa terdeteksi pada usia anak anak adalah thalasemia. Akibat dari thalasemia ini maka anak anak tidak dapat lepas dari transfusi darah sebagai salah satu bentuk perawatan. Transfusi darah merupakan satu-satunya cara bentuk perawatan untuk mencegah kematian pada anak anak, perawatan transfusi darah ini dilakukan di rata-rata 2 sampai 3 kali setiap bulan yang dilakukan secara rutin dan teratur untuk tetap bisa menjaga stamina dan beraktifitas bagi penderitanya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kaitan antara usia anak anak penderita thalasemia dengan frekuensi transfuse. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode cross sectional yakni metode penelitian yang meneliti hubungan antara faktor kausa dan efek pada satu waktu penelitian. Teknik pengambilan sampel dengan accidental sampling dan mendapatkan sampel sejumlah 30 sampel. Instrumen penelitian menggunakan kuesioner yang telah dilakukan uji validitas dan reliabilitas. Hasil penelitian menunjukan ada hubungan signifikan antara usia anak anak penderita thalasemia dengan frekuensi transfusi darah dengan nilai p-value = 0,036. Kesimpulan dari penelitian bahwa ada kaitan antara usia dengan frekuensi transfusi darah pada anak anak penderita thalassemia.

Abstract

Background: Anthropometric measurements during early childhood are critical as they represent the initial stages at which nutritional status is determined. Practitioners who measure children’s growth must have similar and adequate skills in anthropometric measurement to ensure the validity of data regarding children’s nutritional status, particularly concerning stunting prevalence. Objective: This study aimed to explore the measurement practices conducted by community health workers (CHWs) in Indonesia, who are responsible for providing data related to children’s growth and, consequently, their nutritional status. Methods: A qualitative descriptive design was employed using online focus group discussions ranging from 1 to 1.5 hours. Data were collected from ten health professionals and eight CHWs, with analysis performed using thematic analysis. Results: Four themes emerged: barriers to measurement accuracy, varied skills in measurement, mothers’ behavior influenced by children’s reactions, and strategies for dealing with traumatized children. Conclusion: Practical issues that arose during routine anthropometric measurements included the reliability of measurements, the skill levels of examiners, the interplay between mothers’ and children’s reactions, and approaches to managing traumatized children during measurements. To effectively enhance integrated health posts (Posyandu) services, it is crucial to maintain calibrated, validated equipment and implement comprehensive training with periodic refreshers for CHWs. Additionally, improving facility infrastructure, fostering CHWs’ communication skills, and simplifying child-friendly measurement procedures will collectively optimize service quality, promote cooperation, and strengthen community trust.
