Abstract

To improve the human capacity in West Nusa Tenggara (WNT) province, a community-based intervention called Generasi Emas NTB (GEN) has been implemented in 2014. One of the programs is to ensure children’s nutritional and developmental wellbeing. However, there remains limited information regarding the situation of nutritional and developmental status of the children living in the GEN villages. This study aimed to assess the nutritional and developmental situation of under-fi ve years old children living in Tanjung Karang district, WNT. A cross-sectional study was conducted in Tanjung Karang district, one of the GEN villages in WNT, through integrated post service (posyandu). Children who met the sampling criteria were screened for their nutritional status using anthropometric measurement and developmental status using a prescreening developmental questionnaire (KPSP). A total of 638 children completed the demographic baseline assessment and were enrolled as participants. Most of the children were in the age group 7-12 months (19.1%) and 25-36 months (19.4%). The proportion of children who were underweight, stunting, and wasting were 19.4%, 32.2%, and 8.0%, respectively. The fi ndings for developmental screening showed that 12.2% children had dubious development and 3.1% (20/638) children were suspect of having a developmental delay. The proportion of under-fi ve years old children in Tanjung Karang district who were underweight, stunting, and wasting were still high but lower than the provincial average prevalence in 2017. Children who were found to have a doubtful result and suspect to have a developmental delay need to be evaluated further.

Abstract

ABSTRACT The current COVID-19 situation has disrupted routine growth and developmental screening programs for children delivered by the Community Health Centers (Puskesmas). The KUMBANG project aims to provide a ‘new normal’ alternative in screening for children's growth and development by involving medical students and using online platforms. This study aimed to assess the project’s reach in screening growth and developmental delays while also exploring the project’s effectiveness through parents' perspectives.Collaborating with the Center for Indonesian Medical Students’ Activities (CIMSA) Universitas Gadjah Mada, we recruited and trained 33 volunteers. Volunteers screen for children’s development through an online platform, while the community volunteer cadres measure children’s growth through COVID-safe offline appointments. We analyzed children's growth using the WHO Anthro Survey Analyzer and children's development according to the Kuesioner Pra Skrining Perkembangan guidelines. Parents' perspective on this project was assessed through a survey.A total of 92 under-five years old children from four Posyandu in Puskesmas Gondokusuman participated in the project. Around 29% (27/92) of the children had nutritional problems, either underweight, stunted, wasted, or a combination. Meanwhile, 34% (29/84) of children were at risk of developmental delays, of which five were suspected to have developmental delays, while 24 had dubious results. Parents reported that this method is sufficiently effective in screening for children's development and were comfortable with the online screening, since it is more COVID-safe. Parents also felt comfortable communicating with volunteers and believed that the medical students could provide valid and reliable information.KUMBANG project offers a good alternative for screening children's growth and development during the current disrupted routine screening. Involving medical students could help in service delivery, since health professionals are relatively occupied with COVID-19 management. The online method used in this project should be considered as a prospective option for routine screening.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Improper complementary feeding practice practice is one of the problems that often occurs in developing countries. This problem can lead to inadequate nutrient intake, especially protein intake which is associated with physical growth problems in children under five years, including stunting. This study was an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design which aims to determine the association between complementary feeding practice and stunting incidence among children aged 6-12 months in Central Lombok. A total of 206 children with a mean age of 9,3 months was selected for this study by cluster sampling. Most of them were female. In this study, we analyzed 4 parameters of complementary feeding practice, namely age of indroduction of complementary foods, texture of complementary foods given, frequency of complementary feeding, and amount of complementary foods given. This study found that there was a significant association between frequency of complementary feeding (p = 0.047, 95% CI) and amount of complementary foods given (p = 0.020, 95% CI) with stunting incidence. Meanwhile, other parameters namely age of indroduction of complementary food and texture of complementary foods given did not have a significant association with stunting incidence. Keywords: complementary feeding practice, short stature, stunting ABSTRAK Praktik pemberian makanan pendamping ASI (MPASI) yang tidak tepat merupakan salah satu masalah yang sering terjadi di negara berkembang. Hal tersebut dapat menyebabkan asupan zat gizi yang tidak adekuat, terutama dari protein yang berhubungan dengan masalah gangguan pertumbuhan fisik pada anak balita, termasuk stunting. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian analitik observasional dengan rancangan cross-sectional yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan praktik pemberian MPASI terhadap kejadian stunting pada anak usia 6-12 bulan di Lombok Tengah. Sebanyak 206 anak dengan rerata usia 9,3 bulan terpolih menjadi subjek penelitian ini menggunakan cluster sampling. Sebagian besar berjenis kelamin perempuan. Pada penelitian ini, kami menganalisa 4 parameter praktik pemberian MPASI, yaitu usia pertama mendapatkan MPASI, bentuk MPASI yang diberikan, frekuensi MPASI, dan jumlah MPASI yang diberikan. Penelitian ini menemukan adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara frekuensi MPASI (p=0,047, 95% CI) dan jumlah MPASI yang diberikan (p=0,020, 95% CI) dengan kejadian stunting pada anak. Sedangkan parameter lainnya seperti usia memulai MPASI dan tekstur MPASI, tidak memiliki hubungan yang signifikan terhadap kejadian stunting.
