Abstract

Iron deficiency anemia remains a prevalent nutritional issue among pregnant women in Indonesia. Although iron (Fe) supplementation is recommended during pregnancy, its absorption can be limited. Vitamin C, known to enhance non-heme iron absorption, is abundant in red guava juice. This study aimed to assess the effect of combining Fe tablets with red guava juice on hemoglobin (Hb) levels in pregnant women with anemia. A quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest control group design was conducted among 32 anemic pregnant women selected through total sampling at the Cineam Health Center, Tasikmalaya Regency. Participants were divided into an experimental group (Fe tablets + red guava juice) and a control group (Fe tablets only). The intervention was administered daily for 14 days. Hemoglobin levels were measured before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using an independent t-test. There was a significant increase in Hb levels in the experimental group compared to the control group. The mean Hb increase in the experimental group was 0.738 g/dL (p = 0.001), indicating that the addition of red guava juice significantly enhanced the efficacy of Fe supplementation. Combining Fe tablets with red guava juice effectively improves hemoglobin levels in pregnant women with anemia. This simple and affordable dietary intervention has the potential to support maternal anemia management programs in low-resource settings.

Objective: To determine the effect of using a peanut ball on the duration of labor.  Method: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a post-test only control group design. The sampling technique used was total sampling, dividing the participants into two groups: a control group of 16 respondents and an intervention group of 16 respondents.

Abstract

Background: Pruritus is a common discomfort occurring in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, triggering a scratch. The treatment of pruritus can be administered through pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies; however, many pregnant women avoid pharmacological medications due to concerns regarding potential adverse effects on the fetus. Topical Aloe vera gel is a recommended non-pharmacological alternative with no side effects for mother or infant. This research investigates the impact of Aloe vera gel application on pruritus in pregnant women. Method: This research used a one-group pretest-posttest design. 15 third-trimester pregnant women with pruritus were selected by purposive sampling at Mangkubumi Health Center. Participants applied the treatment twice daily for two weeks. Result: Before the aloe vera gel intervention, 40% of participants experienced mild itching and 60% moderate itching. Post-intervention, 6.6% reported complete relief, while 93.4% showed decreased itching intensity. Based on the Wilcoxon statistical test, a highly significant difference was observed (p = 0,001). Conclusion: It can be concluded that there was a statistically significant effect of aloe vera gel for reducing pruritus in pregnant women.
