Abstract
Stunting is a form of growth failure (growth faltering) due to the accumulation of insufficient nutrition that lasts for a long time from pregnancy to 24 months of age. Children are classified as stunted if their Z-score is < -2 SD (stunted) and < – 3 SD (severely stunted). Based on data from the Indonesian Nutrition Status Survey (SSGI), in 2022 Sumedang Regency was known as the highest stunting incidence in West Java Province, which is reported to be above 20% every year. Among 26 subdistricts in Sumedang Regency, Rancakalong District has the highest prevalence. This study aims to describe the incidence of stunting in children under five in the Rancakalong Health Center from August 2022 - February 2023. The design of this study is observational analytic with a retrospective case-control approach. The sample used in this study was 55 toddlers with the total sampling method. The results of the analysis found that 17 children (30.9%) were included in the stunting category and 28 mothers (50.9%) with stunting toddlers had a history of anemia during pregnancy. P value=0.002 (<0.05). This study concludes that there is a significant association between a history of maternal anemia and the incidence of stunting in toddlers. Keywords: Children; stunting; toddlers; anemia.
