Abstract

Iron anemia control is a program to prevent anemia through health education by giving blood supplement tablets to adolescent girls. This study aims to study the effect of education and the effectiveness of parental participation in giving blood-added tablets to increase blood hemoglobin levels. The study was carried out at SMA PGRI Makassar from January to October 2021. The population was adolescent girls aged 12-18 years who participate in the blood-boosting tablet supplement program with a total of 45 respondents. The sample size was determined by the Slovin formula so that 41 were obtained which were taken using a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire before and after being given an anemia education model and parental participation in increasing hemoglobin levels. To determine the hemoglobin level used Sahli's Hb with units of g/dl. In the paired t-test analysis, there was a significant change in the knowledge of adolescent girls about anemia after being given the education model with p-value = 0.000 (less than 0.05). There was a significant difference in parental participation in the administration of blood-added tablet supplements. As conclusion, education and the effectiveness of parental participation affect increasing hemoglobin levels. Keywords: adolescent girls; parental participation; blood supplement tablet (TTD); Hb level

Abstract

Worms are a health problem that is still commonly found in developing countries. One of the causes of helminthiasis is Soil-Transmitted Helminth (STH). The worms that cause worm problems are Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, Hookworm (Necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale). Chitosan has been discovered to have a quality positively charged polycationic, leading to changes in cell permeability. Chitosan can be found in the framework of Crustacea sp., such as white mussel shell. The purpose of this research was to determine the effectiveness of liquid chitosan from white mussel shells (Corbula faba Hinds) against Soil-Transmitted Helminth on Pakcoy (Brassica chinensis L.). The research results at a concentration of 2% on average worm larvae death time of 5.25 minutes, 1.5% concentration on average worm death time of 5.15 minutes, the concentration of 1% and 0.5% did not occur death of worm larvae. There is a significant difference in the exposure of liquid chitosan from white shell to death time of worm larvae. These results show that the liquid chitosan from white mussel shell to Soil-Transmitted Helminth on mustard meat is effective at a concentration of 1.5% with an average death time of 5.15 minutes. Keywords: Soil-Transmitted Helminth; chitosan; Corbula faba hinds
