Abstract


Introduction: Nutritional problems in pregnant women in Indonesia reach 50%, this is still a concern. Based on Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) 2018, 17.5% CED pregnant women in Central Java. Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) is an examination to determine nutritional status of pregnant women. Poor nutritional status can cause anemic neonates. According to research at RSUP Dr. Hasan Sadikin Bandung 2018, prevalence of anemic neonates is 14.5% which is still a problem.

Objectives: This study aimed to determine relationship between MUAC in third trimester and incidence of anemic neonates.

Methods: This study used a cohort study of pregnant women and neonates at Dr. Oen Solo Baru. The sampling technique was purposive sampling. The samples were 80 respondents with the independent variable being MUAC in third trimester and the dependent variable being anemic neonates. Data were analyzed using Spearman's correlative test.

Results: In 40 (50%) respondents with normal MUAC which is 23.5 – 28.5 cm, there were 31 (77.5%) normal haemoglobin (Hb) neonates and 9 (22.5%) anemic neonates. In 40 people (50%) were malnourished which is <23.5 cm, there were 13 (32.5%) normal Hb levels neonates and 27 (67.5%) anemic neonates. Based on statistical tests, there is a relationship between third trimester MUAC and incidence of anemic neonates with p = 0.000 (<0.05) and the correlation coefficient value is 0.452 which indicates a sufficient correlation.

Conclusions: The conclusion is there is a relationship between MUAC for pregnant women in third trimester and incidence of anemic neonates.
