Abstract

Anemia in pregnant women remains a major public health problem that increases the risk of pregnancy complications, childbirth difficulties, as well as maternal and infant mortality. One preventive effort is the provision of iron (Fe) tablets; however, adherence to consumption among pregnant women is still low. This study aims to analyze the factors associated with pregnant women’s adherence in consuming Fe tablets at Kedaton Public Health Center, Bandar Lampung City in 2025.This research employed a cross-sectional design with a quantitative approach. The study population consisted of 334 pregnant women who underwent antenatal examinations from January to April 2025, with a sample of 77 respondents selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the chi-square test with a 95% confidence level (α=0.05).The results showed that age (p=0.000), education (p=0.045), knowledge (p=0.009), attitude (p=0.022), and husband’s support (p=0.009) were significantly associated with adherence to Fe tablet consumption. The majority of non-compliance was caused by limited knowledge and low awareness of the benefits of iron supplementation.In conclusion, age, education, knowledge, attitude, and husband’s support significantly influence adherence to Fe tablet consumption. It is recommended that health workers strengthen nutrition education programs and involve families in supporting pregnant women to improve adherence and reduce the risk of anemia.

Abstract

Anemia remains a major health problem among adolescent girls in Indonesia, with a prevalence of 22.7%, and in Lampung Province reaching 57.6%. Poor dietary habits and low levels of knowledge and attitudes toward anemia are key contributing factors that require attention. This study aims to determine the effect of using e-leaflets via WhatsApp as an educational medium on the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls regarding anemia at the Surya Mandiri Orphanage. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. A total of 60 adolescent girls were selected using a total sampling technique. Data were collected using a digital questionnaire distributed through Google Forms, while the intervention was delivered in the form of e-leaflet education via WhatsApp for seven days in June 2025. Data analysis using the Wilcoxon test showed a p-value of 0.001 (p<0.05) for both knowledge and attitude variables, indicating a significant effect of e-leaflet education on improving the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent girls regarding anemia. In conclusion, digital nutrition education using e-leaflets is effective in enhancing adolescent health literacy in anemia prevention. Therefore, it is recommended that e-leaflets distributed via WhatsApp be continuously used as an innovative nutrition education medium in adolescent and social institution settings.
