Abstract

Stunting is a difficult problem faced by all countries today. Data shows that in 2017 the stunting rate reached 22.2%, or about 150.8 million toddlers experienced stunting. In this study, we used a crossectional research design with a total sample of 1489 people. Our results showed 61.9% of toddlers suffered from stunting, 69.8% of respondents with good health care patterns, 74.6% of respondents who had a history of infectious diseases in the existing category, 58.7% of respondents with NLHB in the poor category, and 74.6%. The category of respondents to the information media that ever existed. those at risk of stunting are health patterns (p-value = 0.017), history of infectious diseases (value p = 0.020) and NLHB (value p = 0.031).

Abstract

The quality of drinking water supply must be guaranteed. The WHO (World Health Organization) determines water quality by means of E. Coli bacteria. Based on the Minister of Health Regulation No. 492 / MENKES / PER / IV / 2010 The maximum permissible content of E. Coli in drinking water is 0 per 100 ml. The presence of E. coli in water is an indicator of human and animal fecal pollution that can cause diarrhea and even death. Selection of Refillable Drinking Water (AMIU) as an alternative to fulfill drinking water needs is a risk that can endanger health if the quality of AMIU is added if consumers do not pay attention to safety and hygiene. This study aims to see the content of E. coli in Refill Drinking Water (AMIU) in Samatiga District, West Aceh Regency. This research is experimental with cross sectional design using quantitative laboratory examination with the Most Probable Number (MPN) method. The population in this study were all refill drinking water depots that did not have a drinking certificate in Samatiga District, West Aceh Regency. The research sample used a total sampling method of 7 refill drinking water depots. The results of the analysis showed that from all samples as many as 6 samples (85.71%) tested positive for Escherichia coli bacteria and 1 sample (14.29%) tested negative for Escherichia coli bacteria. Based on the calculation of the number of colonies with the MPN / 100 ml table then comparing with the requirements of the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number 492 / Menkes / Per / IV / 2010 concerning drinking water quality requirements that the 6 samples tested positive were not suitable for consumption.

Abstract

The high level of public belief and trust in the madeung tradition as a treatment for postpartum mothers is still widely found in traditional Acehnese communities, especially the Raja Ubit family – an indigenous community in Blang Tripa. Postpartum mothers are required to practice the madeung tradition in the form of restrictions on consuming certain types of food, in which this tradition must be carried out for 44 days. The purpose of this study was to find out the effects of the practice of the madeung tradition on the nutritional status of postpartum mothers. This study applied a descriptive-analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. The number of respondents in this study was 20 people. The results of the chi-squared test, Fisher’s exact test, and cross-tabulation between the nutritional status of postpartum mothers and the practice of the madeung tradition indicated the p-value of 0.545 (> 0.05). Therefore, it can be concluded that there is no significant influence between the nutritional status of postpartum mothers and the practice of the madeung tradition. Health officers from Alue Rambot Health Center are expected to run education programs for pregnant women about the good practice of the madeung tradition after the childbirth process based on health principles. Keywords: Madeung Tradition, Nutritional Status, Postpartum Mothers.

This type of research is cross sectional, the research was conducted from 30 July to 10 August 2019. With a population of 256 mothers, the sample was taken using purposive sampling technique. Data collection was carried out by distributing questionnaires, univariate and bivariate data analysis. The results of this study indicate that there is an influence of attitudes on the achievement of basic immunization with p value = 0.005 (α = 0.05) and the influence of family support on the achievement of basic immunization with a value of p value = 0.014 (α = 0.05) and there is no effect on the affordability of immunization services towards the achievement of basic immunization with p value = 0.291 (α = 0.05). It is suggested to mothers and families who have babies to be able to increase knowledge about immunization so that the family increases support so that the basic immunization outcomes can be improved again.

Abstract

Coastal communities are people who live and carry out socio-economic activities that depend on coastal resources, one of which is fishermen. The cultural identity of coastal communities as a whole is formed from the culture of fishermen who are directly related to the management of coastal and marine resources. Nutritional problems arise not only from health problems but also influenced by social culture and religion. The design of this study uses quantitative research with a Cross Sectional.The sample is the total population selected by the purposive sampling method, which is 71 students from five schools. The instrument in this study used a questionnaire. Techniques and data processing are carried out by using a computer program to present data in the form of frequency and then the results are presented in the table. It is known that there is a relationship between nutritional status and socio-culture in coastal communities because the nutritional status of school-age children is below the threshold of 25.4%, and 12.7% is very thin. This happens because most parents of students have daily work as fishermen so that the lack of income from parents causes children's nutritional intake to decrease, while seen from the cultural tribes of the coastal community there are more Javanese tribes which result in low nutritional status due to lack of variety in food intake.
