Anemia in pregnant women is a public health problem that remains high in Indonesia and impacts maternal health and fetal development. This study aims to determine the prevalence of anemia and risk factors in pregnant women at the Saritani Community Health Center, Boalemo. The study used a cross-sectional design on 28 pregnant women selected by purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews using a structured questionnaire and hemoglobin level examination (HemoCue). Descriptive and bivariate analyses using the Chi-Square test were performed, with p < 0.05 as the significance limit. The results showed a prevalence of anemia of 42.9 % . Factors significantly associated with anemia included education level (p = 0.041), adherence to Fe tablet consumption (p = 0.022), parity (p = 0.037), and pregnancy spacing (p = 0.049). Mothers with low education, non-adherence to Fe tablet consumption, high parity, or pregnancy spacing <2 years had a higher risk of developing anemia. Age and diet did not show a significant association.

Pregnancy anemia is a medical condition that occurs when a pregnant woman experiences a lack of red blood cells or hemoglobin in her blood during pregnancy. Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that is responsible for transporting oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body and returning carbon dioxide to the lungs to be released. This study aims to determine the relationship between knowledge, age, education and nutritional status with the incidence of anemia in pregnant women in Soppeng district in 2024.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that weakens the immune system. HIV in pregnant women is one of the major health problems that is of concern throughout the world. In this case report, a patient aged 38 years G3P2A0, gestational age 37-40 weeks with complaints of coughing, shortness of breath, weight loss, burning sensation in the mouth in the form of white lesions that almost fill the entire oral cavity. The patient has a history of glandular TB and has received treatment for 6 months in the past 2 years. On the physical examination of the patient, the general condition of the patient was found to be seriously ill, composure of consciousness, blood pressure 100/70 mmHg, pulse rate: 78x/I, respiratory rate: 20x/I, temperature: 36.8ºC, SpO2: 98%, body weight 40 kg and height 157 cm. On examination of the general status of the skin, a reddish rash in the form of small vesicles was found on the right and left arms, back, neck and head. In the mouth and throat, white spots were found in the oral cavity, from the sides of the tongue to the throat. Laboratory investigations showed decreased hemoglobin levels, electrolyte imbalance, hypoalbumin. Serological examination revealed HIV (+) reactivity. Investigation of a PA chest photo showed infiltrate spots at the apex of the left medial lobe. Patients diagnosed with Std IV HIV + oesophageal candidiasis + pulmonary TB + hypoalbuminemia + anemia were given non-pharmacological and pharmacological treatments.

Around 41.8% of pregnant women around the world experience anemia. The prevalence of anemia in pregnant women in the world is estimated at around 57.1% in Africa, 48.2% in Asia, 25.1% in Europe and 24.1% in America. The results of Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) in 2013, the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women in Indonesia was around 37.1%, with hemoglobin levels < 11.0 g/dL approaching the proportion between urban areas 36.4% and rural areas 37.8%. Based on the 2001 Household Health Survey (SKRT), the prevalence of anemia in pregnant women was 40.1%. Meanwhile, the 2004 DKI Jakarta survey showed that the prevalence rate of anemia in pregnant women was 43.5%. The general aim of this research was to determine differences in hemoglobin levels in pregnant women in the first, second and third trimesters at the Gebang Health Center, Langkat Regency in 2024. Hemoglobin examination in pregnant women aims to To find out whether the mother is experiencing blood deficiency or not, namely by checking hemoglobin levels during pregnancy. The method is quantitative research with an analytical survey method using a cross sectional design, namely, a study that concerns risk factors using a retrospective approach. Analysis shows that there are differences in hemoglobin levels in the first, second and third trimesters. The average hemoglobin levels in the first trimester (11.7 g/dL) and II (11.0 g/dL) were still within normal limits, while the hemoglobin in the third trimester (10.2 g/dL) was abnormal. Hemoglobin levels < 11.0 g/dL in pregnant women can be said to be anemia, whereas if hemoglobin levels in pregnant women are > 11.0 g/dL it is not said to be anemia. So it can be seen that hemoglobin levels in the third trimester are lower than hemoglobin levels in the first and second trimesters. Pregnant women are expected to be able to check their pregnancy by carrying out an HB examination.

Anaemia is a common medical condition characterised by a lack of red blood cells or a decrease in haemoglobin levels below normal, which is important for the distribution of oxygen in the body. This disorder has a significant impact on global health, especially in the elderly, pregnant women, and individuals with chronic diseases. Anaemia in women of reproductive age poses a severe health challenge, causing more than 115,000 maternal deaths each year. This activity uses the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) method to screen for anaemia by measuring haemoglobin and hematocrit levels in the productive age population at PT. Narindo, North Jakarta. The examination results showed that 38 people (28.57%) men and 5 people (3.97%) women had anemia. Routine screening, especially in high-risk populations, is critical for early identification and timely intervention, thereby reducing complications and health care costs. Efficient management through nutritional and pharmacological interventions can improve the quality of life and productivity of individuals suffering from anemia, thereby reducing the wider socio-economic impact.

Maintaining the mother's health during pregnancy is one of the main keys to the health of the next generation, because the mother will give birth to a healthy generation if the mother's health during pregnancy is good and without problems. The thing that must be maintained by pregnant women is to get adequate nutrition for themselves and the fetus they are carrying. One of the problems that often arises in pregnant women is anemia. Anemia in pregnant women can increase the risk of low birth weight (LBW) babies, premature birth, maternal and infant deaths and stunting (short children). Various efforts have been made to control anemia in pregnancy, but the prevalence is still high. One of the efforts that can be made to prevent anemia in pregnant women is to check hemoglobin and increase the mother's knowledge about anemia and its management, so that the mother understands her health condition during pregnancy. The aim of this community service activity is to screen for anemia in pregnant women. The benefit of this activity is that pregnant women know their hemoglobin levels and get information about anemia during pregnancy and its management.

Anemia is a condition where the number of red blood cells or the concentration of hemoglobin in them is lower than normal. This disease mainly affects women and children. Anemia is classified into 3 parts based on the Hb value, namely mild, moderate and severe. Of these three categories, anemia is most prevalent in adolescents and pregnant women with productive age of 15-49 years in 124 countries included in WHO. The method used in conducting community service by using a preliminary survey conducted at Datuk Batu Hampar High School Pekanbaru, then conducted interviews with female students about their knowledge of anemia and continued with Hemoglobin checks and counseling about anemia. From the Hemoglobin examination on 30 female students, 5 were found with symptoms of anemia.

Pregnancy is a physiological and natural process. Based on WHO data in 2020, the global prevalence of anemia in pregnant women throughout the world is 41.8%, which is related to anemia in pregnancy caused by iron deficiency and acute bleeding. Efforts that can be made to overcome anemia are by giving beetroot, pomegranate, dragon fruit or guava juice or you can also consume boiled chicken eggs to increase hemoglobin levels. The nutritional content of chicken eggs is rich in high quality protein. The aim of this research is to determine the effectiveness of consuming boiled chicken eggs and fe tablets on hemoglobin levels in anemic pregnant women at Clinic I Bekasi in 2023. The research method used is the Quasi-experimental Pre-Post Test With Control Group Design method. Sampling was taken with a total sampling of 30 people. Data analysis used frequency distribution and independent t test. This study uses primary data from Hb examination values by researchers. The research results showed that the average increase in Hb in the intervention group was higher than in the control group. The calculated t value (6.768) > t table (2.048). The results of the analysis used the Independent t test with a p-value of 0.000 < 0.05, meaning that Ho was rejected and Ha was accepted, meaning that there was an effect of consuming boiled chicken eggs and Fe tablets on hemoglobin levels in anemic pregnant women at Clinic I Bekasi in 2023.It is hoped that this research will provide material for consideration of non-invasive therapy that can be offered to pregnant women in order to reduce the number of pregnancy complications, especially helping pregnant women have a healthy and happy pregnancy.

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.
