Hubungan Status Ekonomi dengan Kejadian Kekurangan Energi Kronik Pada Ibu Hamil

Background: According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 35-75% of pregnant women worldwide suffer from chronic energy deficiency (CED). Women with CED who are pregnant are more likely to die. The percentage of pregnant women with CED rose from 5.4% in 2022 to 7.5% in 2023, according to data from the Klungkung I Health Center. Objective:  Finding out how economic status and the prevalence of chronic energy deficiency (CED) in pregnant women at the UPTD Klungkung I Health Center relate to one another was the aim of this study. Method: The research design is cross-sectional and analytical. 38 pregnant women who satisfied the inclusion and exclusion criteria made up the study's sample size. Purposive sampling was used for the sample process. An ANC registration book and a questionnaire were utilized as study tools. Result: According to the findings, the majority of respondents (65.7%) were between the ages of 20 and 35; 73.7% had completed secondary school; 42.1% were farmers; 13.3% of moms had CED; and 21% had a low socioeconomic position. The bivariate test with Spearman rank yielded a r value of 0.107 and a p value of 0.501 (> ?). Conclusion: The incidence of CED at UPTD. Klungkung I Health Center is not significantly correlated with the economic position of expectant mothers, according to the findings. In order to prevent CED and encourage moms to actively seek out information and ask more questions about health, particularly CED-related issues, it is envisaged that pregnant women would be able to achieve their nutritional demands.
