Abstract

Low birth weight (LBW) continues to be a globally significant public health problem because of its short and long term effects on health. Many risk factors can cause LBW events. The nutritional factors that cause LBW, such as a low nutritional diet and inadequate weight gain during pregnancy, contribute to the low intake of nutrients that are important for fetal growth, such as vitamin B and iron. Ionic iron is a mineral that plays a role in the formation of new haemoglobin and is the main source of energy and oxygen transportation to the organs of the body. Decreased haemoglobin levels support changes in placental angiogenesis, limiting the availability of oxygen to the fetus and, consequently, potentially causing intrauterine growth retardation and low birth weight. This type of research is analytic with a case study research design with a cross-sectional approach, where factors are studied using a retrospective approach. This study is an analytic study to find out "The Relationship of Giving Tablets with Blood to Mothers with 0-59 Months Infants to LBW in Mekarbakti Village, Sumedang Regency, West Java in 2020". Based on the results of the study, the probability value (p-value) is greater than 0.005, meaning that there is a relationship of giving blood-added tablets to mothers who have babies aged 0-59 months to the blood in Mekarbakti village, Sumedang Regency, West Java in 2020.
