Abstract

Abstrak: Stunting merupakan masalah gizi kronis masih menjadi tantangan serius di Indonesia. Kondisi ini ditandai dengan gangguan pertumbuhan pada anak akibat kekurangan gizi, terutama pada 1.000 hari pertama kehidupan. Dampak stunting berpengaruh pada tinggi badan anak dan juga terhadap perkembangan kognitif, kesehatan, dan produktivitas di masa depan. Salah satu penyebab utama adalah rendahnya pengetahuan keluarga, khususnya ibu, mengenai pemenuhan gizi seimbang, pola asuh yang tepat, serta pentingnya sanitasi dan kesehatan lingkungan. Selain itu, keterbatasan akses informasi dan kurangnya pendampingan di tingkat masyarakat turut memperparah. Tujuan pengabdian ini melakukan edukasi peran TP PKK Desa/Kelurahan dalam mencegah stunting dengan menggunakan media powerpoint dan leafleat, peserta berjumlah 26 orang. Metode yang digunakan adalah ceramah, tanya jawab, dan diskusi partisipatif agar peserta lebih mudah memahami materi. Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan pre-test dan post-test. Pre-test untuk mengetahui tingkat pengetahuan awal peserta dan post-test untuk mengukur peningkatan pengetahuan peserta setelah mengikuti kegiatan. Terdapat peningkatan pengetahuan peserta hasil evaluasi sebesar 92%.Stunting, a chronic nutritional problem, remains a serious challenge in Indonesia. This condition is characterized by impaired growth in children due to malnutrition, particularly during the first 1,000 days of life. The effects of stunting impact a child’s height as well as their future cognitive development, health, and productivity. One of the main causes is the low level of knowledge among families, particularly mothers, regarding balanced nutrition, appropriate parenting practices, and the importance of sanitation and environmental health. Additionally, limited access to information and a lack of community-level support further exacerbate the issue. The objective of this community service initiative is to educate the Village/Subdistrict PKK Task Force on their role in preventing stunting using PowerPoint presentations and leaflets; there were 26 participants. The methods used were lectures, question-and-answer sessions, and participatory discussions to help participants better understand the material. Evaluation was conducted using pre-tests and post-tests. The pre-test was used to determine participants’ initial knowledge level, and the post-test to measure the increase in their knowledge after participating in the activity. The evaluation results showed a 92% increase in participants’ knowledge.

Abstract

There has been a decline in stunting prevalence nationally in the last two years, requiring a more specific analysis of local determinants to optimize interventions at the regional level, especially in areas with geographical characteristics such as North Tapanuli Regency. This study aims to analyze the effect of nutritional intake, environmental sanitation, immunization status, and medical history on the incidence of stunting in toddlers. This quantitative study with a cross-sectional design involved 71 stunted toddler respondents in four working areas of the Community Health Center in North Tapanuli Regency. The data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test for bivariate analysis and Path Analysis to see the direct and indirect effects. The path analysis results showed that nutritional intake (0.365), sanitation (0.146), and immunization status (0.141) had a significant direct effect on stunting. Nutritional intake was the most dominant determining factor (p=0.010). Conversely, medical history (p=0.485) did not show a significant relationship and did not play a strong mediating role in this model. Nutritional intake is a key factor in determining the severity of stunting. Intervention strategies should focus on meeting the specific nutritional needs of toddlers in addition to improving sanitation and basic immunization coverageKeywords: Stunting, Nutritional Intake, Infectious Diseases, Sanitation, Immunization

Abstract

Indonesia is still facing nutrition problems that affect the quality of human resources. The problem of malnutrition is still quite high in Indonesia, especially the problem of stunting. Stunting can occur as a result of malnutrition, especially during 1000 HPK. The Lancet Breastfeeding 2016 states that breastfeeding can reduce infant mortality due to infection by 88%, besides that breastfeeding also contributes to reducing the risk of stunting in the future. Hypnobreastfeeding helps mothers ensure that they can continue to breastfeed, at least exclusively for the first six months. To prevent stunting, optimizing breastfeeding with Hypnobreastfeeding can reduce stunting rates in the North Tapanuli Regency so that the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) target in 2025 can be achieved by a 40% reduction. The study aims to determine the difference in prolactin hormone levels before and after the application of hypnobreastfeeding in breastfeeding mothers. The research was a quasi-experiment using pre and Post-tests with a control group design. The sampling technique used purposive sampling on postpartum mothers with a total sample of 30 people. This research was conducted in July-November. Statistical tests using the Wilcoxon test.  To determine the difference in prolactin levels before and after hypnobreasfeeding, the p-value = 0.02, so that the p-value <0.05 can be concluded that there is a difference in prolactin hormone levels before and after the application of hypnobreastfeeding in nursing mothers. Based on the results of the study, hypnobreastfeeding can be an intervention for breastfeeding mothers to succeed in exclusive breastfeeding.

Abstract

In Indonesia, anemia during pregnancy remains a major public health issue due to its risks for both mother and baby. This study aims to analyze the relationship between anemia in third-trimester pregnant women and their knowledge and behavior regarding iron (Fe) tablet consumption. Conducted in the Curup Health Center area, this cross-sectional study used a descriptive analytical design with purposive sampling to select 35 pregnant women as respondents.Data were collected through hemoglobin testing using the Easy Touch GCHb device and questionnaires assessing knowledge and behavior. The results showed that 71.4% of respondents did not experience anemia, 60% demonstrated positive behavior in consuming Fe tablets, and 51.4% had sufficient knowledge about anemia and iron supplementation.The chi-square test indicated no significant relationship between knowledge and the incidence of anemia (p = 0.240). However, a significant relationship was found between behavior in consuming Fe tablets and the occurrence of anemia (p = 0.002).These findings suggest that while knowledge alone may not prevent anemia, consistent and proper behavior in taking Fe tablets has a stronger influence. Therefore, enhancing behavioral-based education and monitoring could help improve adherence to Fe tablet intake and reduce anemia prevalence among pregnant women.
