Abstract

At the global level, the prevention of stunting is one of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Indonesia is currently working towards achieving the second Sustainable Development Goal, which entails ending hunger, ensuring food security, improving nutrition, and supporting sustainable agriculture. As a part of this objective, efforts are being made to decrease the prevalence of stunting in children by 2025. Attention towards stunting is crucial as it can adversely affect children's physical and cognitive development well into adulthood if not addressed appropriately. This paper conducted a literature review from various sources, with a focus on google scholar and prioritizing sources from the last five years, as well as research on the population in Indonesia. It was determined through the analysis of several sources that maternal, child, and environmental factors pose various risks for stunting in Indonesia. Maternal factors that may play a role in child development include the mother's age, upper arm circumference, height, breastfeeding or complementary feeding practices, early initiation of breastfeeding and food quality during pregnancy. A history of low birth weight or prematurity, male sex, neonatal illness, frequent and recurrent diarrhea, infectious diseases, and lack of immunization are among the child factors associated with developmental outcomes. Factors such as living in a low socio-economic environment, limited family education, especially maternal education, insufficient household income, open defecation in rivers, gardens or inadequate latrines, consumption of untreated drinking water and high exposure to pesticides are also associated with the prevalence of stunting.

Abstract

The postpartum period begins a few hours after the birth of the placenta and continues until approximately 6 weeks after childbirth. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated 830 women die every day due to complications from pregnancy and childbirth. In 2015, approximately 303,000 women died during pregnancy, childbirth, or in the postpartum period. The theme of this study is to investigate the influence of postpartum exercise on the speed of uterine involution among postpartum mothers at BPM Mona Durryah Siregar, SKM in North Padangsidimpuan District. This study utilized a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest only design. The research was conducted at BPM Mona Durryah Siregar, SKM in North Padangsidimpuan District. The population consisted of 10 postpartum mothers, with a sample size of 10. Data analysis included univariate and bivariate analyses. The results of the study showed a significant decrease in uterine fundus height among the 10 respondents, with a percentage of 2.70%. None of the respondents experienced subinvolution after the postpartum exercise intervention. However, 10 respondents faced challenges in decreasing uterine fundus height both before and after the intervention. The Wilcoxon ρ-value test of 0.004 indicates that postpartum exercise influences the speed of uterine involution among postpartum mothers. The implications of this study suggest that implementing postpartum exercise therapy can accelerate uterine involution among postpartum mothers. It is recommended that these findings be used to develop counseling programs related to postpartum exercise at BPM Mona Durryah Siregar, SKM.

Abstract

Background: Anemia in pregnant women remains a significant public health issue in Indonesia, including in South Tapanuli. Anemia screening is a crucial policy for early detection and timely intervention, yet its implementation in primary healthcare facilities (Tier I) remains suboptimal. Objective: This study aims to analyze the implementation of anemia screening policies for pregnant women in Tier I healthcare facilities across urban-rural areas of South Tapanuli using a mixed-methods approach. Methods: The study employed a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, combining quantitative data (a survey of 150 pregnant women and 30 healthcare workers) and qualitative data (in-depth interviews with 15 stakeholders, including health workers and policymakers). Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were examined using framework analysis. Results: Quantitatively, anemia screening coverage reached 68%, with disparities between urban (78%) and rural (58%) areas. Barriers included limited equipment, insufficient healthcare worker training, and low public awareness. Qualitative findings revealed issues in inter-stakeholder coordination, uneven budget allocation, and inadequate policy socialization. Conclusion: The implementation of anemia screening policies in South Tapanuli remains suboptimal, particularly in rural areas. Improvements in infrastructure, healthcare worker training, and culturally adapted community education are needed to enhance screening coverage.
