Abstract

Addressing stunting necessitates an enhanced role for the community, particularly pregnant women and mothers of toddlers, alongside improved skills for cadres in the early detection of toddlers' nutritional status. This community engagement initiative aimed to increase cadres' knowledge of early stunting detection and toddler growth monitoring, as well as to improve mothers' knowledge of stunting prevention. The target participants were pregnant women, mothers of toddlers, and cadres. The activities involved 170 mothers of toddlers, 12 pregnant women, and 15 cadres, and were conducted through interactive education using smart card stunting cards and question-and-answer sessions with pregnant women and mothers of toddlers, as well as anthropometric measurement training for posyandu cadres. Evaluation results demonstrated a significant increase in knowledge among mothers of toddlers (from 66.5% in the moderate category to 93.5% in the good category) and pregnant women (from 66.7% in the moderate category to 100% in the good category) following the stunting education. Furthermore, cadres' skills also improved, with 93.3% of cadres becoming proficient in performing anthropometric measurements.

Peran aktif kader di sini sangat menentukan kelangsungan dan perkembangan posyandu, di pihak lain jumlah kader tidak aktif, yaitu kader yang terdaftar tetapi tidak melaksanakan dan tidak terlibat dalam kegiatan posyandu semakin banyak. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan pengetahuan kader tentang pengukuran antropometri pada anak usia 0-24 bulan dalam pengisian buku KIA.Metode yang dilakukan penelitian kuantitatif yang menggunakan jenis cross sectional. Populasi adalah seluruh kader dengan jumlah sampel 50 orang. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah Pengetahuan kader dalam pengisian buku KIA adalah mayoritas cukup yaitu sebanyak 20 responden (40.0%). Pengukuran antropometri pada anak usia 0- 24 bulan dalam pengisian buku KIA adalah mayoritas cukup yaitu sebanyak 20 responden (40.0%). Ada hubungan pengetahuan kader tentang pengukuran antropometri pada anak usia 0- 24 bulan dalam pengisian buku KIA dengan p-value 0.02 < 0.05. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah ada hubungan pengetahuan kader tentang pengukuran antropometri pada anak usia 0- 24 bulan dalam pengisian buku KIA.

Abstract

Background: Stunting is a significant health issue in Indonesia, affecting children's physical and cognitive development, as well as their future quality of life. One key strategy for preventing stunting is ensuring optimal monitoring of toddlers' growth and development. Objective: This study examined the impact of the Android application "SiANEH" on monitoring growth, development, and stimulation, aiming to improve mothers' independent practices in stunting prevention efforts in Kutalimbaru Village, Deliserdang Regency. Methods: A quasi-experimental design with a quantitative analytical approach was used, specifically a one-group pretest-posttest design. The research was conducted in Kutalimbaru Village, with a sample of 30 mothers of toddlers selected via purposive sampling. The study measured mothers' independent practices in monitoring growth and stimulating toddlers, utilizing the "SiANEH" app, which provides information on child development and reminders for stimulation. Data were collected through observation and completion of observation sheets. The research instruments were validated for content and reliability before application, and ethical approval was obtained from the Health Research Ethics Committee of Poltekkes Kemenkes Medan. Results: The results revealed a positive and significant effect of the "SiANEH" app on child growth monitoring (r=0.532, p= 0.002), child stimulation (r=0.790, p= 0.000), and maternal independence in monitoring and stimulation (r=0.534, p= 0.002). Pretest scores for growth monitoring (1.57) and stimulation (1.60) increased significantly in the posttest (3.40 and 3.70, respectively), as did maternal independence (from 1.80 to 3.60). Conclusion: These findings indicate that the "SiANEH" application enhances mothers' involvement in independently monitoring and stimulating child development, contributing to stunting prevention.
