Anemia in pregnancy is characterized by a condition in which the body has few red blood cells or the cells cannot carry oxygen throughout the body. it is estimated that the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women in Indonesia in 2019 is 48.9%. Bananas are the best food because they contain vitamins needed by pregnant women. Bananas are sufficient to meet the substance intake of anemic patients. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between Ambon Banana Administration and Hemoglobin Levels in Pregnant Women with Mild Anemia in the First Trimester. This research was carried out using quantitative analytic research with a cross sectional approach by collecting secondary data from medical records. from April 2021 to June 2022 . This research was conducted at TPMB Susi in Dolok Merawan District, Serdang Bedagai Regency in February 2023. The sampling technique used total sampling with a total sample of 42 pregnant women in the first trimester with mild anemia who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Analysis using the Chi Square statistical test shows that the p value is 0.000 (<0.05). So that the hypothesis can be accepted, then there is a "Relationship between Giving Ambon Bananas and Hemoglobin Levels in Pregnant Women with Mild Anemia in the First Trimester. The results of this study indicate that there is a relationship between giving Ambon bananas and hemoglobin levels of pregnant women after being given Ambon bananas. Giving ambon bananas can be suggested as an alternative complement of vitamins to increase hemoglobin levels.

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder in which the pancreas does not produce enough insulin and is characterized by hyperglycemia. Tests to diagnose diabetes include fasting blood sugar (FBS), random blood sugar (RBS) , blood sugar 2 hours after eating (GD2PP) and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C). Purple sweet potato is a non-pharmacological therapy that has a high fiber content, low glycemic index carbohydrates. Dietary foods containing antioxidants, including anthocyanins, can protect pancreatic β-cells from glucose-induced oxidative stress. Administration of purple sweet potato extract can protect pancreatic β-cells from the harmful effects of free radicals. Study shows that purple sweet potato have different glucose level according to how the sweet potato being processed which is  boiled, steamed, grilled and fried purple sweet potato, namely 3.30%, 4.92%, 7.72%, and 7.36%, respectively. So it can be concluded that the lowest glucose content was obtained from the boiled purple sweet potato sample. Anthocyanins that found in purple sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas poiret) contain substances  that can control blood sugar levels, thus preventing insulin resistance in people with diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this program for the resident of Kavling Senjulung RT 02 RW 09 is to know  about non-pharmacological prevention of diabetes and start applying it to control blood sugar for people with diabetes mellitus. The implementation method was carried out by providing education related to purple sweet potato processing and demonstrating how to process it and perform medical examination including  blood pressure and random blood sugar (RBS) .  

Pregnant women are prone to anemia, because during pregnancy, especially at the end of pregnancy, the process of hemodilution occurs. This process is due to the increase in blood plasma volume in the body which is not proportional to the increase in red blood cell volume, resulting in a decrease in hemoglobin levels in the blood (Ali, 2020). A decrease in hemoglobin levels during pregnancy will cause a decrease in oxygen transport to the body and result in anemia (Percy, et al., 2017). Anemia during pregnancy has long-term and short-term impacts. In the short term, a fetus with an anemic mother in the first trimester is at risk of small for gestational age (SGA) and fetal distress. In Trimester II, the fetus is at risk for macrosomia (Sun et al., 2021), and in Trimester III in the long term it will have an impact on neurocognitive in childhood. Long-term effects include autism, schizophrenia, brain structural abnormalities, impaired thinking memory, and delays in responding to things (Georgieff, 2020; Malinowski et al., 2021). The impact of anemia on mothers during pregnancy in the short term includes infectious shock during inpartum and postpartum (Getahun, et al., 2017), cardiac decompensation (Stephen et al., 2018), and postpartum hemorrhage (Getahun, et al., 2017). In the long term, postpartum hemorrhage leads to death. Meanwhile, postpartum hemorrhage is the first cause of high maternal mortality rates (MMR) in Indonesia in 2020.

Measurement of haemoglobin (Hb) is a standard examination in pregnant women at the first prenatal visit that is used to evaluate physical status and anemia. One of the health conditions that often occurs and is important to note in reducing maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality is anemia in pregnancy, which can increase the risk of infection, preeclampsia, postpartum hemorrhage, low birth weight babies, preterm birth, to death for both mother and child. fetus. This cross-sectional study aims to determine the difference in mean haemoglobin levels with the incidence of mild preeclampsia, severe preeclampsia and eclampsia which were selected according to the criteria by total sampling using medical record data in the period January 2020 - December 2020. The variables in this study consisted of the basic characteristics of the respondents (age mother and parity status), gestational age (weeks), and medical condition of the mother divided into three groups (mild, severe preeclampsia, and eclampsia). Statistical analysis using the Kruskall Wallis test. This study included 190 respondents with an average maternal age of 32 years and an average haemoglobin level of 10.86 with medical conditions dominated by severe preeclampsia (85.3%). The results of the study found that there was no significant difference in mean hemoglobin levels between the three groups of pregnant women (p-value: 0.235). To improve the quality of life of the mother and fetus, it is recommended that primary health services should be strengthened, prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of anemia in pregnancy should be prioritized.    

Anemia is one of the conditions in which the body lacks enough red blood cells or hemoglobin to meet its physiological needs depending on the person's age, gender, age, pregnancy stage and breastfeeding stage because at the breastfeeding stage, the mother is susceptible to experiencing anemia due to iron depletion during breastfeeding and the occurrence of postpartum blood loss. Beetroot (Beta Vulgaris) is a fruit that contains quite high iron and has many nutrients. Beetroot can be used as an alternative to anemia treatment and can also be used as a prevention of anemia. The purpose of this community service activity is to give beets to breastfeeding mothers, namely to increase the knowledge of breastfeeding mothers about the benefits of beets in preventing and treating anemia. The method used in this activity is counseling by means of socialization first then followed by observation using questionnaires and blood sampling for hemoglobin examination. This activity took place at the Posyandu Sukasari Kaler Village, Majalengka Regency on April 14 – 21, 2023. Based on the results of community service activities, we can know that consuming beets for 7 days can prevent anemia and increase hemoglobin levels in breastfeeding mothers.

Pesticides are toxic substances that have a negative impact on human health problems. Anemia is one of the chronic effects of pesticide. The effect of pesticides to the farmer’s health, decreasing production or increasing destruction of red blood cells. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship of pesticide exposure with anemia in the blood of pesticide spraying workers at PT. X. The research method used is Cross Sectional at PT. X with a total sample of 61 workers was obtained by Simple Random Sampling. Information was obtained through interviews with questionnaire and examination of hemoglobin levels using a portable hemoglobin meter. Based on the results of the analysis using chi square data, it was found that pesticide exposure were associated with anemia (p = 0.011). It is expected that sprayers pay more attention to the impact of using pesticides with health.

Background : The period of breastfeeding in children aged 0-6 months is one part of the first 1,000 days of life (golden period). Exclusive breastfeeding aims to guarantee the right to exclusive breastfeeding up to the age of 6 months by taking into account the growth and development of the baby. Some mothers find it difficult to express breast milk because more and more mothers are influenced by myths. When a mother is concerned about her baby's ability to breastfeed, the hormone oxytocin decreases, causing her to stop producing and eventually breastfeed soon after birth. One way to stimulate the mother's prolactin and oxytocin hormones after giving birth is breastfeeding massage. Writing purpose : To determine the effectiveness of the combination of consumption of smoothy spinach and oketani massage to increase the amount of milk production in postpartum mothers in the UPT area dcomparison of giving snakehead fish extract and smoothy spinach to increasing hemoglobin levels in pregnant women in the UPT Puskesmas Kalri Karawang area in 2023.

Hasil penelitian membuktikan semakin berat derajat merokok maka semakin rendah kadar saturasi oksigennya. Saran : Pengukuran derajat merokok dan saturasi oksigen perokok direkomendasikan sebagai data dasar pengkajian keperawatan dalam pembuatan intervensi program berhenti merokok.

Pregnancy can cause the body to be very susceptible to low hemoglobin levels, which during pregnancy require sufficient iron for the body. If the body loses iron, anemia will occur, because the body requires the intake of foods that contain iron. Anemia itself where the value of the hemoglobin level is less than the normal value or below the normal value. So if a pregnant woman has a hemoglobin level below the normal value, she will be prone to anemia. The risk of anemia during pregnancy can occur in the fetus because it can affect the growth and development of the fetus and baby, as well as babies born prematurely or with reduced body weight. Dates are a fruit which contains many benefits for the body, one of which is to prevent anemia. The content of the date palm itself contains nutrients for the body such as protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, thiamine, ribovalfin, nicotinic acid, and iron. To determine hemoglobin levels in pregnant women before and after giving dates. The research method used this time was preexperimental with a one-group pre-test post-test research design. While the examination using the cyanmethemoglobin method. The results of the study of hb levels before being given dates with an average result of 11.94 and after being given dates the average result was 12.65 which showed an increase in hb levels. Data analysis using the Paired Sample Test statistical test obtained the results of sig (2 tailed) of 0.207 or > 0.05. From the results of the statistical analysis of the Paired Sample Test, it can be said that Ho is accepted, which means that there is no significant effect on the administration of dates on hemoglobin levels before and after.  

Chronic Kidney Diseases (CKD) is a disease condition where there is a decrease in kidney function, no longer able to carry out its function of filtering the blood, removing toxins and unable to remove waste products from the blood effectively, characterized by the presence of protein in the urine and a decrease in the glomerular filtration rate. Hemodialysis is a kidney replacement therapy method that is often used to manage CKD. The prevalence of CKD in Indonesia continues to increase every year with some patients undergoing hemodialysis. CKD patients undergoing HD are susceptible to anemia. Anemia in CKD patients can be caused by blood loss during dialysis procedures, and disturbances in iron metabolism. The aim of the study was to analyze changes in hemoglobin levels in CKD patients after undergoing hemodialysis. The research was carried out in a descriptive observational manner through an initial screening stage, an examination stage by measuring hemoglobin levels before and after the hemodialysis session and readings using a Mindray BC-5830. The examination results showed that the hemoglobin levels of CKD patients increased after undergoing HD. Hemoglobin levels in male CKD patients were higher than female patients both before and after undergoing HD. The conclusion of this study is that HD has an effect on increasing hemoglobin levels in CKD patients, both female and male patients.    

Background: Anemia is a condition in which the concentration of hemoglobin (Hb) in the blood is lower than the normal value. Anemia that occurs due to iron deficiency so that the formation of red blood cells and other functions in the body is disrupted is iron nutritional anemia. Based on Riskesdas data in 2018, the prevalence of anemia was 48.9% in the 15-24 year age group. According to WHO, adolescents are residents in the age range of 10-19 years, young women have a higher risk, this is because young women experience menstruation (menstruation) every month. The impact of the incidence of anemia in adolescents can reduce concentration and learning achievement, as well as affect productivity among youth. Based on this background, the author is interested in carrying out community service activities for the prevention of anemia in young women during the new normal period of Covid-19 at Panca Atma Jaya Vocational School, Klungkung. Purpose: The purpose of this activity is as a form of implementation of Tri Dharma Stikes Panca Atma Jaya Klungkung. Methods: Participants who took part in this activity were 67 students using the pretest and posttest methods. Results: The results obtained were an increase in the pretest score (before being given education) which was 69.41% to 89.42% in the posttest result (after being given education). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between posttest scores, which increases after education is held, so anemia prevention education needs to be given and improved to improve anemia prevention behavior in adolescent girls.

Background: One of the causes of high maternal and infant mortality rates (IMR) is anemia of pregnancy and chronic energy deficiency (KEK). Anemia and KEK in pregnant women can increase the risk of low birth weight babies (LBW), premature birth, maternal and infant mortality and stunting (short children).To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to carry out screening and Fe supplementation as a preventive measure to prevent anemia in pregnancy. Activity This community service aims to screen for anemia and KEK  pregnant women and women of childbearing age (WUS) as well as the provision of Fe supplementation for prevent iron deficiency anemia. Method: The method used is involving community as a form of empowerment such as measuring LiLA and levels of hemoglobin (Hb), BMI, and distribution of Fe supplementation. Besides that, it is also done education about anemia in pregnancy. The population in this activity is women aged fertile 15-40 years, a total of 42 people in Sambirobyong Hamlet, Pangkur Village,Ngawi Regency. Results: The results show that from 42 women of childbearing age in the hamlet Sambirobyong were screened, there were 3 people (7%) women of childbearing age temporary anemia 1 person (2%) with anemia status plus KEK. From 4 WUS people for age <20 years as many as 2 people (50%) with 1 person condition pregnant with anemia and 1 non-pregnant with anemia. While 2 people(50%) aged >35 years with 1 pregnant condition with anemia + KEK and 1 non-pregnant people with anemia. There is 1 person (2%) experiencing the risk of SEZ. Conclusion: Screening results show that anemia and KEK are more common WUS group aged <20 years and >35 years. It is necessary to carry out periodic evaluations every months and giving Fe supplementation to WUS who are still anemic and the risk of KEK and education on the importance of quality nutrition to prevent these complications. 

Iron (Fe) tablets are mineral tablets that the body uses to make red blood cells and hemoglobin. For red blood cell production, Fe is the most significant element. Food is a natural source of iron. Nutritional anemia can develop in pregnant women if they don't get enough iron in their diet (blood deficiency). Pregnant women need iron (Fe) tablets, so they must consume at least 90 Fe tablets during pregnancy. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between consumption of Fe tablets and the incidence of anemia at the Penrang Community Health Center, Wajo Regency. The type of research used was a cross sectional study. The samples were 72 pregnant women who underwent pregnancy checks at the Penrang Community Health Center, Wajo Regency, using a random sampling technique. The research results showed a relationship between consumption of Fe tablets and the incidence of anemia at the Penrang Health Center, Wajo Regency, where the p value = 0.000 < ? = 0.05. The conclusion is that there is a relationship between the consumption of Fe tablets and the incidence of anemia at the Penrang Community Health Center, Wajo Regency.
