Kejadian anemia pada ibu hamil di Puskesmas Sangkrah cukup tinggi jika dibandingkan Puskesmas lain di Surakarta, dan daerah lainnya di Indonesia. Anemia pada masa kehamilan paling banyak terjadi akibat kekurangan zat besi yang dapat dicegah dengan konsumsi Tablet Tambah Darah (TTD). Hasil analisis situasi di Puskesmas Sangkrah menunjukkan mayoritas ibu hamil menyatakan alasan tidak patuh mengonsumsi TTD adalah karena faktor lupa. Selain itu belum dilakukan upaya monitoring untuk konsumsi TTD ibu hamil oleh tenaga kesehatan. Oleh karena itu penulis melakukan pengabdian yang bertujuan untuk menanggulangi tingginya prevalensi ibu hamil anemia di Puskesmas Sangkrah dengan menciptakan sistem pengingat, pemantau, dan edukasi konsumsi TTD menggunakan Aplikasi ANEDOC APP. Metode pengabdian yaitu pembuatan sistem pengingat, pemantau dan edukasi konsumsi TTD melalui ANEDOC APP dan pendampingan melalui kelas ibu hamil/Support Group. Pengabdian dilaksanakan selama 5 bulan yaitu bulan Mei-September 2021. Masyarakat sasaran yang terlibat pada pengabdian ini sejumlah 43 ibu hamil. Hasil dari pengabdian kami yaitu terciptanya ANEDOC APP yang telah digunakan oleh 21 ibu hamil di Puskesmas Sangkrah. Terlaksananya 80 sesi edukasi melalui Support Group yang memberikan hasil meningkatnya pengetahuan ibu hamil tentang pencegahan anemia berdasarkan hasil pretest dan posttest. Berdasarkan hasil evaluasi juga menunjukkan kepatuhan ibu hamil konsumsi TTD meningkat pada akhir program. Program pengabdian memberikan hasil berupa peningkatan kepatuhan mengonsumsi TTD sehingga diharapkan dapat menanggulangi anemia ibu hamil di Puskesmas Mitra. Diperlukan penelitian untuk menguji efektivitas penanggulangan anemia ibu hamil menggunakan ANEDOC APP.
The proportion of anemia is high among pregnant women in Indonesia making it a priority health problem, especially in various regions, including Central Java Province. Educational efforts to empower pregnant women are necessary. A nutrition Champion is necessary for the optimization of activities. Interviews show that the online pregnant women's class has been carried out but encountered obstacles such as the inactivity of participants and the busyness of each health worker. This service activity aims to increase the capacity of health cadres in becoming nutrition champions on social media for the prevention of anemia during pregnancy. The expected output target is that health cadres have media that are interesting and effective in educating in the form of electronic booklets. As well as an increase in knowledge and motivation of health cadres in becoming nutrition champions on social media to prevent anemia in pregnant women. The activity was carried out in June 2022 and attended by 30 health cadres offline in the Sangkrah Puskesmas work area (100% of the target). Electronic booklets have been disseminated and explained to all cadres. The evaluation results showed that the majority (80%) of cadre knowledge levels increased after training (p-value<0.001). The cadre of the Kratonan Health Center is then expected to become nutrition champions who help overcome the incidence of anemia in pregnant women in Surakarta. Periodic monitoring and education of health cadres need to be carried out to increase their role as nutrition champions for anemia prevention in the community.
