Abstract

Stunting sangat umum di Kabupaten Langkat, dengan prevalensi 31,5% menurut Studi Status Gizi Indonesia (SSGI) pada tahun 2021. Untuk menurunkan angka stunting, pemerintah telah mengimplementasikan inisiatif seperti Targeted Therapeutic Dietary Intervention dengan suplementasi gizi pada remaja putri berupa pemberian tablet tambah darah. Nama resmi untuk proyek ini adalah Program PPAGB (Pencegahan dan Penatalaksanaan Anemia Gizi Besi). Kegiatan ini berupa pemberian tablet tambah darah kepada remaja putri yang wajib dikonsumsi agar remaja putri tidak mengalami anemia defisiensi besi. Berdasarkan informasi dari kepala sekolah, diketahui bahwa SMA Negeri 1 Binjai belum menerima program suplementasi besi dalam satu tahun terakhir, dan belum pernah ada penyuluhan tentang pencegahan anemia pada remaja putri. Metode pengabdian masyarakat ini berupa edukasi tentang anemia dan pencegahan anemia, pelatihan dan pendampingan. Tiga puluh siswi ikut dalam pengabdian ini. Teknik analisis data menggunakan uji-t. Hasil pengukuran status gizi menunjukkan mayoritas siswi memiliki nilai rata-rata Hb normal adalah 29 (96,7%), untuk IMT normal 14 (46,7%), dan LILA normal 16 (53,3%). Skor rata-rata sebelum dan sesudah edukasi ini masing-masing adalah 36,02 dan 66,92. Hasil uji T statistik didapatkan nilai p = 0,000 < α = 0,05 Dari hasil tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa remaja putri yang berpartisipasi dalam pengabdian masyarakat ini secara signifikan mengalami peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan dalam melakukan screening pencegahan anemia.

Abstract

Introduction: Adolescence is a critical period that requires adequate nutritional intake, yet undernutrition remains a significant public health problem among adolescent girls. Nutrition literacy and dietary consumption patterns are important factors influencing nutritional status, particularly among adolescents with anemia. This study aimed to examine the relationship between dietary consumption patterns, nutrition literacy, and undernutrition among anemic female adolescents in public senior high schools in Medan City, Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted among 208 anemic female adolescents aged 15–18 years from six public senior high schools in Medan City, selected through cluster and proportional random sampling. Data were collected using anthropometric measurements, hemoglobin testing, a Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ), and a validated nutrition literacy questionnaire. Chi-square tests were used for data analysis. Results: Most participants had inadequate nutrient intake, particularly energy, protein, and carbohydrates. Poor dietary patterns were identified in 69.2% of respondents. Functional and interactive nutrition literacy were generally low, whereas critical nutrition literacy was mostly adequate. Significant associations were found between undernutrition and protein intake (p = 0.003), dietary consumption patterns (p = 0.001), and interactive nutrition literacy (p = 0.021), while other variables showed no significant relationship. Conclusion: Undernutrition among anemic adolescent girls is associated with inadequate protein intake, unhealthy dietary patterns, and low interactive nutrition literacy. School-based nutrition education is needed to improve adolescents' nutritional status.
