Abstract

Data from the Indonesian Toddler Nutrition Status Survey (SSGBI) in 2021, the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia is still quite high, at 24.4%, which is equivalent to 5.33 million toddlers. This figure is still above the standard tolerated by WHO, which is below 20%. Therefore, efforts are needed to accelerate stunting reduction so that the prevalence of stunting in toddlers decreases to 19.4% by 2024. This research aims to develop a tool for measuring toddlers' height and weight to assess their nutritional status promptly, aiming to preemptively address any nutritional abnormalities and prevent exacerbation. Anthropometry serves as the primary method for assessing toddlers' nutritional status in this study. The tool's design incorporates the ESP32 as the main control unit, the HC-SR04 sensor for height measurements, and the HX711 module and loadcell sensor as weight sensors. Data from the sensor are transmitted from the ESP32 master to the ESP32 slave for processing, culminating in a nutritional status assessment. Notably, the tool boasts a minimal error rate of 0.18% for weight measurement with 99.82% accuracy and a 2.66% error rate for height measurement with 97.34% accuracy. Furthermore, the tool's integration with IoT technology offers additional advantages. It facilitates real-time data transmission and analysis, enabling healthcare professionals to promptly identify any nutritional issues in toddlers. This, in turn, allows for timely intervention and appropriate management strategies to prevent the development or exacerbation of stunting. Overall, the benefits of this research for the Anthropometry Stunting Monitor based on IoT are manifold. It enhances accuracy and efficiency in measuring toddlers' height and weight, enables early detection of stunting, and facilitates timely intervention to address nutritional abnormalities. This holds significant promise for improving pediatric healthcare outcomes and reducing the prevalence of stunting among children.

Abstract

The current web page context is a research article that discusses the implementation and evaluation of a digital anthropometry device for the early detection of stunting in children under five years old in a rural village in Indonesia. The aim of the study was to apply a technology-based solution to overcome the challenges of measuring height and weight of children, as well as to provide timely and actionable information for the prevention and reduction of stunting. The contribution of the study was to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of a community service program that integrated education, empowerment, and technology components to address the stunting problem in a local context and need. The method of the study involved a mixed-methods design, which combined quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis, to evaluate the impact and outcomes of the digital anthropometry device and the community service program. The result of the study showed that the program improved the knowledge and awareness of stunting among the mothers and the cadres, as well as their skills in using the digital anthropometry device. The program also reduced the stunting cases and increased the nutritional status among the children, as indicated by the z-score indicators. The conclusion of the study was that the program was successful in achieving its objectives and outcomes, but also faced some challenges and limitations, such as the limited availability of the device, the technical difficulties in operating and maintaining the device, the low participation and compliance of some mothers and children, and the lack of follow-up and evaluation after the program ended
