Abstract

Optimal nutritional status is a primary indicator of successful chronic disease management within the Program Pengelolaan Penyakit Kronis (Prolanis). This study aimed to analyze the association between macronutrient intake (energy, protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, and cholesterol) and Body Mass Index (BMI) among Prolanis participants. A cross-sectional observational study was conducted on 42 elderly subjects, with a majority being female (69%) and aged 60–70 years (61.9%). Dietary intake was assessed using a 24-hour recall method and analyzed using Pearson/Spearman correlation and linear regression tests. The results revealed that 66.7% of subjects had never received nutritional counseling. Statistical analysis showed a significant positive correlation (p<0.05) between BMI and the intake of energy (r=0.517), protein (r=0.537), fat (r=0.747), carbohydrates (r=0.391), and fiber (r=0.671). No significant correlation was found between cholesterol intake and BMI (p=0.538). Regression analysis identified fat intake as the most dominant factor influencing BMI (B=0.949; p=0.002). In conclusion, macronutrient and fiber intake are closely associated with the nutritional status of the elderly, with fat identified as the primary determinant of BMI among Prolanis participants. Strengthening routine nutritional counseling programs is recommended to prevent nutritional issues in elderly patients with chronic diseases.

Abstract

Integrated Health Service Posts (Posyandu) are community-based health efforts managed by cadres to provide easy access to basic health services, including anthropometric measurements of toddlers. The characteristics and roles of cadres influence the monitoring of toddler growth and development. This study aims to assess the characteristics, knowledge, and skills of Posyandu cadres in performing anthropometric measurements of toddlers at the Gedung Meneng Community Health Center, Tulang Bawang Regency. This research uses a quantitative descriptive approach with a sample of 46 cadres from the Gedung Meneng Community Health Center area. The results showed that the average age of the cadres is 41 years, with most having completed elementary school (45.7%), junior high school (28.3%), and high school (26.1%). All cadres have more than one year of work experience. The knowledge of cadres regarding anthropometric measurements is predominantly good (80.4%), while 19.6% have moderate knowledge. In terms of skills, 52.1% of cadres are skilled in measuring infant weight, 60.9% in digital weighing, and 63% in height measurement. However, 65.2% were not skilled in measuring body length, 71.8% in measuring arm circumference, and 58.7% in measuring head circumference. Despite good knowledge, skills were not fully optimized. Therefore, it is recommended that the Gedung Meneng Community Health Center involve nutritionists to provide re-training and continuous support to improve the skills of cadres.
