Simatupang ( 6%) dan Desa Aritonang (4 %).Jenis penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif, dengan rancangan penelitian cross sectional.Populasi seluruh WUS (usia 15-49 tahun) yang berdomisili di Desa Simatupang sebanyak 79 orang, dan yang menjadi sampel adalah yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi sebanyak 64 orang. Analisis data menggunakan uji statistik chi-square dengan derajat kepercayaan 95% (α = 0,05). Dari hasil analisis data diperoleh tidak ada hubungan usia dengan perilaku pemeriksaan IVA Test;ρ=0,637 (p>0,05), ada hubungan pendidikan dengan perilaku pemeriksaan IVA Test; ρ=0,003 (p<0,05), tidak ada hubungan paritas dengan perilaku pemeriksaan IVA Test; ρ=0,220 (p>0,05), ada hubungan pengetahuan dengan perilaku pemeriksaan IVA Test; ρ=0,002 (p< 0,05), ada hubungan sikap dengan perilaku pemeriksaan IVA Test;ρ=0,000 (p<0,05). Analisis multivariat regresi logistik diperoleh variabel pendidikan, dukungan kader, dan sikap berhubungan dengan perilaku pemeriksaan IVA Test dengan probabilitas lebih kecil dari nilai (p<0,05), yaitu masingmasing pendidikan (0,035), dukungan kader (0,026), dan sikap (0,007) yang artinya ada hubungan yang signifikan antara pendidikan dengan perilaku WUS dalam pemeriksaan IVA.

Introduction: World Health Organizations recommends pregnant women to consume 120-240 mg of iron (in the form of Ferrum) per day and increase the dose by 400 mg 3 times a day if the Anemia is severe. One of the herbal therapies that can increase hemoglobin levels is Tamarillo (Solanum Betacum Cav) with a vitamin C level of 25 mg, Fe 2,765 ppm. The research objective was to analyze the effect of Tamarillo juice consumption in increasing hemoglobin (HB) levels of pregnant women with Anemia. Methods: Quasi-experimental research with pre and post-test along with control group design was used to compare the HB levels of ≥ 32 weeks pregnant women who were given Tamarillo fruit juice. Subjects in this study were 34 pregnant women as the treatment group who received Tamarillo juice and blood supplement and the control group of pregnant women who only receive blood supplements. Results: The results of the T-test analysis showed that in the treatment group there was an increase in the average hemoglobin level of 0.91 g/dL in the first week and 1.75 g/dL in the second week, while in the control group there was an increase in the average hemoglobin level of 0.43 g/dL in the first week and an increase of 0.89 g/dL in the second week. Conclusion: The administration of Tamarillo juice as an alternative companion to blood supplement in the prevention and management of care for pregnant women with Anemia.

This study was conducted to assess the traditional practices in post-partum care among Indonesian and Filipino mothers to propose a program to improve maternal and child health. The study utilized a descriptive research design for Indonesian mother respondents (n=110) and Filipino mother-respondents (n=119) conveniently selected. Traditional practices on post-partum care focused on hygienic care, behavioral precautions, breastfeeding, baby care; dietary modifications; and physical activities. Descriptive statistics (frequency and percentage), weighted mean, and independent t-test were used to describe and analyze quantitative information. Four dimensions, including hygienic care (p-value 0.038); breastfeeding and baby care (p-value 0.000); dietary modifications (p-value 0.000); and physical activities (p-value 0.000), showed a statistically significant difference in the assessment of mother respondents on their traditional practices in post-partum care. Meanwhile, the dimension on behavioral precautions (p-value 0.250) yielded statistically no significant difference on the assessment of mother respondents on their traditional practices in post-partum care.
