Abstract

Maternal mortality is always associated with pregnancy and childbirth, whereas pregnancy and childbirth are physiological conditions in a woman's life stage. When a woman is pregnant, physiologically in the plasma hematology system there will be a very large increase of 50%-60%, but it is not balanced by an increase in blood cells of only 25-30%. This has an impact on decreasing blood hemoglobin levels (anemia), so that O2 carried to the fetus is low and has fatal consequences for the mother and fetus. Ende Regency, the area that contributes the most cases of anemia in pregnant women is the City Health Center with the number of pregnant women experiencing anemia amounting to 338 people or 65.5%. Therefore, supervision of pregnant women is needed to prevent anemia. Research Objective: To prove the implementation of antenatal care supervision to prevent anemia in pregnant women. Methodology: Qualitative descriptive research with a phenomenological approach. Results: Pregnant women's knowledge about anemia is good, but has not been followed by behavior to prevent anemia. Supervision of pregnant women in health facilities is good, but they have not complied with the advice of midwives and nutritionists regarding eating nutritious food, meaning they are not used to eating green vegetables that contain raw materials for making erythrocytes in the bone marrow to increase hemoglobin. Discussion: There is a need for regular health education and promotion related to the nutrition of pregnant women during ANC supervision as an effort to prevent anemia in pregnant women

Abstract

Background: The escalation of HIV/AIDS cases among productive age groups from global to regional levels demands serious attention, with adolescence being a highly vulnerable period due to minimal health literacy and high peer pressure. Objective: This study aims to identify the overview of knowledge levels and behavioral characteristics of adolescents in preventive efforts against HIV/AIDS transmission at SMA Negeri 1 Ende. Methods: This quantitative descriptive study utilized a cross-sectional approach. Sample selection applied a simple random sampling technique, resulting in a total of 208 eleventh-grade students as respondents. The data collection instrument employed structured questionnaires adapted from the Brief HIV Knowledge Questionnaire (HIV-KQ-18) and a preventive behavior questionnaire, which were subsequently analyzed using univariate analysis. Results: The research findings revealed that the majority of respondents possessed a low level of knowledge, accounting for 113 students (54.3%). Conversely, regarding the preventive behavior variable, most respondents demonstrated good criteria, representing 116 students (55.8%), and no students were found to be in the poor behavior category. Conclusion: There is a gap between the cognitive aspect and the practical actions of students, where limitations in deep understanding regarding HIV/AIDS do not hinder them from adopting positive preventive actions. Schools are expected to integrate specific reproductive health promotion programs to eradicate misconceptions surrounding virus transmission routes.
