Stunting Risk Analysis Review From Antenatal Care and Postnatal Care Aspects

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional deficiency caused by inadequate nutritional intake for a long time due to improper feeding. This study aims to analyze the predictor factors for stunting based on aspects of antenatal care and postnatal care. This research was a quantitative analytic study with a case-control study approach involving 90 mothers with children aged 24-59 months who live in the coastal area of ??Kolaka Regency. The data was processed using the SPSS application and tested with the Odds Ratio (OR) test. If the LL-UL value does not contain a value of 1, it is considered significant. Predictor/independent variables, it can be seen that the risk factor for a history of folic acid administration has an OR value of 7,000 (2,742-17,867). The risk factor for chronic energy and protein deficiency on the incidence of stunting has an OR value of 8,383 (3.152-22,2922,2). The risk factor for the history of giving iodine to stunting has an OR value of 6.089 (2,442-15,184). The incidence of stunting in children under five in Kolaka Regency was influenced by a history of folic acid consumption, a history of iodine consumption and the incidence of KEK in pregnant women.
