Inovasi Intervensi Aplikasi “Serta” Dengan Kejadian Anemia Pada Remaja Putri Di Wilayah Kerja Puskesmas Arjasari Kabupaten Bandung

Abstract

The high incidence of anemia at the level of West Java Province, especially Bandung Regency, can occur because young women have the habit of consuming less food sources of iron. The aim of this research is to determine the picture of intake of iron sources and the incidence of anemia. Quantitative data collection used the SQ-FFQ questionnaire with analytical observational research type. The research results showed that the majority of respondents' parents (95.3%) had less than tertiary education. Fathers' jobs are dominated by employees (75%), while 77.1% of mothers do not work. Analysis of hemoglobin levels showed that adolescents with parents with less than tertiary education had a higher percentage of Hb levels ≥ 12 g/dL (fathers 53.1%, mothers 62.5%) compared to those with anemia. Adolescents whose fathers are employees and whose mothers do not work tend to have better hemoglobin levels. Assessment of iron intake using the SQ-FFQ showed an average intake of 263.32 mg/week (37.61 mg/day), exceeding the 2019 AKG standard (15 mg/day). However, 43.8% of adolescents still do not meet their iron needs, indicating an uneven distribution of intake. In conclusion, the relationship between parental characteristics and anemia status and iron intake in adolescent girls is complex. A holistic approach and targeted intervention strategies are needed, including the development of personalized mobile applications, to increase and equalize the distribution of iron intake among adolescent girls.
