Low birth weight babies are babies born with a weight less than 2500 grams. LBW (low birth weight) affects the high mortality rate in infants and is at risk of experiencing obstacles in growth and development. LBW is generally caused due to lack of nutrition and nutritional needs from mother to fetus while pregnant women aged less than 20 years and more than 35 years have the risk of giving birth to LBW. The purpose of this study is to determine the risk factors that cause LBW based on maternal age and nutritional status. The research method used was observational with a cross sectional study approach. The sampling technique was random sampling at the Regional Haji Makassar General Hospital in the January to July 2015 period with a total sample of 65 people. Analysis using the Chi Square Test. The results showed that there was a relationship between maternal age, nutritional status of LBW with a value (p value = 0.00 <α = 0.05). Maternal age and nutritional status are factors that influence low birth weight where the results of the study indicate that there is a relationship between maternal age and nutritional status on the incidence of low birth weight. To reduce the incidence of low birth weight, it is necessary to increase counseling about the causes of low birth weight babies by health workers, especially midwives to pregnant women to prevent the risk of low birth weight birth.

Abstract Introduction Advances in neonatal care have led to the increasing survival of preterm/low birth weight infants worldwide. However, there is limited data on growth outcomes following preterm births especially in low and middle income countries. We assessed the catch-up growth, nutritional status and associated factors of Ugandan children who were born preterm/ low birth weight at Mulago National Referral Hospital.Methods: We enrolled children aged 22-38 months who had been born as preterm with low birth weight and their mothers. Participants were identified and recruited from the follow up clinic for preterm babies discharged from the neonatal unit of Mulago Hospital. Anthropometric measurements for mothers and children were taken. The children’s weight for height z-scores, height for age z-scores, weight for age z-scores, head circumference and mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) were taken and the mothers’ body mass index were generated based on the World Health Organization standards. Results: Of the 251 children and mother pairs recruited, 129 children (51.4%) were male, the mean age was 29.7 months (SD±4.5) and the mean maternal age was 29.9 (SD±5.3). 101(40.1%) of the children enrolled had attained catch up growth on the normal anthropometric measurements for their age. Among the participants, the prevalence of wasting, underweight and stunting was: 8 (3.2%), 36 (14.4%) and 106 (42.2%) respectively. Factors associated with stunting were male sex (AOR 2.36, 95% CI 1.42 to 3.95); p=0.001), maternal age ≤ 25years: AOR 2.27 (95%CI 1.13, 4.52); p= 0.020, and maternal height <150cm: AOR 5.57(95%CI 1.90, 16.94); P=0.002. Associations with underweight in the children were; birth weight ≤1500 gms: AOR 2.38(95%CI 1.14, 4.95); p=0.020 and post-natal hospitalization of more than 14 days: AOR 5.93(95%CI 1.96, 17.90); p=0.002. For 246 (98.8%) participants, MUAC was normal (≥ 12.5 cm) and for 216 (86.8%) the head circumference was within normal range for age.Conclusion: Of the children born preterm/LBW 40.1% of the participants had attained the expected catch up growth at 2 to 3 years of age, 42.2% were observed to be stunted while 14.4% were underweight both higher than the national levels. Targeted interventions are specifically needed for children born with very low birth weight, those requiring long postnatal hospitalization, males and those born to short or young mothers.

Low Birth Weight incidence is caused by several factors including maternal age <20/> 35 years and LILA <23.5 cm. The results of the preliminary study at the TawangrejoCommunity Health Center in the City of Madiun, from 2016 there were 20 Low Birth Weightwhile in January-June 2017 there were 24 Low Birth Weight. The problem of this study isthe increase in the incidence of Low Birth Weight.To analyze the relationship between age and maternal nutritional status based on thesize of the upper arm circumference with the type of Low Birth Weight.This study is an analytical cross-sectional study with a population of all infants withbirth weight less than 2500 gram in January-April 2011 taken by simple random sampling of23 infants. Data sourced from secondary data in the form of medical records. Theindependent variables of maternal age and nutritional status based on the size of the upperarm circumference and the dependent variable type Low Birth Weight were then analyzedusing the Fisher Exact test.This study showed that the majority (69.6%) of mothers giving birth in the agecategory were not safe, causing premature Low Birth Weight (38.5%) and Low Birth Weightat term (61.5%). And most (65.1%) mothers gave birth in the category of Lack of ChronicEnergy, causing premature Low Birth Weight (38.5%) and Low Birth Weight dismatured(61.5%). From the Fisher Exact test results obtained value p = 0.011 for age and p = 0.024for LILA size with a significance level of α = 0.05, because p <α then H1 is accepted.This study has a relationship between age and maternal nutritional status based on thesize of the upper arm circumference with the type of Low Birth Weight. Pregnant and givingbirth at an unsafe age and Lack of Chronic Energy tend to give birth to babies with LowBirth Weight. From the research conducted, it is expected that health workers will furtherimprove health promotion by carrying out prevention through early detection of pregnancyby early ANC examination with the 7T standard.

Background Indonesia is ranked fifth in the world for the problem of stunting. Stunting in children under the age of five requires special attention, due to its inhibiting effect on children’s physical and mental development. Stunting is caused by several factors, one of which is breastfeeding. Stunting has been associated with several factors, one of which is non-exclusive breastfeeding. Objective To determine the correlations between non-exclusive breastfeeding and low birth weight to stunting in children aged 2-5 years. Methods This case-control study was conducted in October to November 2016 in multiple integrated health service clinics (posyandu) in Sangkrah, Surakarta, Central Java, Indonesia. Subjects were children aged 24-59 months who visited the posyandu and were included by purposive sampling. Children classified as stunted were allocated to the case group, whereas the children classified with normal nutritional status were allocated to the control group. Parents filled questionnaires on history of exclusive breastfeeding, child’s birth weight, maternal education, and family socio-economic status. Results Of the 60 subjects, the control group had 30 normal children and the case group had 30 stunted children. Multivariate analysis by logistical regression test revealed statistically significant correlations between stunting and non-exclusive breastfeeding (adjusted OR for exclusive breastfeeding 0.234; 95%CI 0.061 to 0.894), as well as low birth weight (adjusted OR 10.510; 95%CI 1.180 to 93.572) This value implies that exclusive breastfeeding is a protecting factor against stunting, which means exclusive breastfeeding is able to decrease the prevalence of stunting in children under the age of five. Conclusion In children aged 2-5 years, the histories of non-exclusive breastfeeding and low birth weights are significantly correlated sith stunting.

AbstractThe level of infant mortality and morbidity in Indonesia still high. The factor that is one of the causes of neonatal death is Low Birth Weight (LBW). Therefore, knowing the practices of early initiation breast feeding, exclusive breast feeding, and child feeding of children with normal nutritional status who had low birth weight history is very important. This research is a qualitative study part of growth and development cohort study held in Kota Bogor in 2017. In-depth interviews were conducted to 12 informants of mothers who have children with normal nutritional status (WAZ/WHZ) who at birth had a history of low birth weight. The results showed that most of the informants did not practice early breast-feeding initiation. However, the practice of feeding shows that the frequency of feeding to children tends to be in accordance with recommendation from the WHO. Promotion and education are very necessary to be done for mothers and families to support the success of initial breast feeding practices, exclusive breast-feeding appropriate and varied frequency for low birth weight children. AbstrakTingkat morbiditas dan mortalitas bayi di Indonesia masih tinggi. Faktor yang menjadi salah satu penyebab kematian neonatus ialah Bayi Berat Lahir Rendah (BBLR). Oleh karena itu, mengetahui praktik Inisasi Menyusui Dini (IMD) dan pemberian Air Susu Ibu (ASI) esklusif serta pola pemberian makan pada bayi di bawah dua tahun (baduta) dengan status gizi normal yang mempunyai riwayat BBLR sangatlah penting. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif bagian dari penelitian kohor tumbuh kembang anak (TKA) tahun 2017 di Kota Bogor. Penelitian dilakukan dengan cara wawancara mendalam terhadap 12 informan ibu yang memiliki anak baduta dengan status gizi normal (BB/U dan BB/TB) yang pada saat lahir mempunyai riwayat berat badan lahir rendah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar informan tidak melakukan IMD. Namun pada praktik pemberian makanan memperlihatkan bahwa frekuensi pemberian makan kepada anak cenderung sesuai dengan anjuran dari WHO. Promosi dan edukasi amat perlu dilakukan pada ibu dan keluarga untuk mendukung keberhasilan praktik IMD, pemberian ASI eksklusif, pemberian makanan dengan frekuensi sesuai dan beragam pada anak BBLR.

Background: After diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders are the most common endocrine disorders in pregnancy. The most common thyroid gland dysfunction in pregnancy is hypothyroidism with estimated prevalence of 1.5-4.4% of pregnant women. Effects of hypothyroidism in pregnancy include anemia, pre-eclampsia, prematurity, IUGR, low birth weight, mental retardation in neonate. The objective of this study is to find the association of hypothyroidism and its adverse outcomes on mother and the fetus that is listed above.Methods: A study was conducted over a period of 6 months over 50 antenatal patients with hypothyroidism from Jan 2021 to August 2021 in the department of obstetrics and gynecology, Cama and Albless hospital, Mumbai with inclusion, exclusion criteria. History of infertility, family history of thyroid disease, menstrual pattern, recurrent abortion and fetal outcomes were the main study variables.Results: In this study, majority of hypothyroidism belonged to the age group of 26-30 years (54%). A high prevalence was found in G2 (26%) and antenatal hypothyroidism with past h/0 abortions were found in 26% patients. Low birth weight is found in 32% cases of hypothyroidism, NICU admissions seen in 32% cases of hypothyroidism, 22% cases were found to have anemia.Conclusions: Hypothyroidism is a common health problem in antenatal patients. We concluded that hypothyroidism is more commonly seen to be associated with low birth weight, anemia, pre-eclampsia, NICU admission in neonate. Early ANC registration and regular ANC checkups help in early recognition and initiating early treatment, thus improving fetomaternal outcome.

ABSTRACT   Low birth weight (LBW) infants with birth weight is less than 2500 grams, regardless of gestational age. Statistically showed 90 % incidence of LBW obtained in developing countries with a mortality rate 35 times higher tinggi.Di South Sumatra Province Infant Mortality Rate ( IMR ) is 29 per 1,000 live births. In Palembang BARI hospitals incidence of LBW in 2013 amounted to 317 cases . The purpose of this study is to determine is there a relationship between the factors of age, education, and parity with the incidence of Low Birth Weight in Palembang BARI hospitals in 2013. This study used survey method crosss sectional analytic approach. The study population was all women who gave birth and was admitted to hospital obstetrics Palembang BARI installations in 2013 amounted to 901. This research was conducted in February 2014. Samples were taken with a random sampling method sistematic. Analyze data using statistical test Chi - Square. Results of univariate analysis of this study showed that 193 (69.4 %) of the respondents had low birth weight, and 85 (30.6 %) respondents had BBLN. 63 (22.7 %) of respondents with a high risk of maternal age and 215 (77.3 %) of respondents with a low risk of maternal age. 157 (56.5 %) respondents with low education mothers and 121 (43.5 %) of respondents with higher education mothers. 48 (17.3 %) respondents with high parity mothers and 230 (82.7 %) respondents with low parity mothers. So the bivariate analysis showed no significant association between maternal age with the incidence of LBW with P value = 0.035, no significant association between education and the incidence of LBW with P value = 0.006, and no significant relationship between the incidence of low birth weight with parity P value = 0.041. It is recommended for health care workers (midwives) hospital in order to be used as material information regarding the occurrence of LBW and as an input as well as the evaluation of success in good health or when needed to do counseling and care of LBW, especially to mothers who give birth to low birth weight baby.   ABSTRAK Berat badan lahir rendah (BBLR) adalah bayi dengan berat lahir kurang dari 2500 gram tanpa memandang masa gestasi. Secara statistik menunjukkan 90% kejadian BBLR didapatkan di negara berkembang dengan angka kematiannya 35 kali lebih tinggi.Di Propinsi Sumatera Selatan Angka Kematian Bayi (AKB) sebesar 29 per 1.000 kelahiran hidup. Di RSUD Palembang BARI Tahun 2013 angka kejadian BBLR berjumlah 317 kasus. Tujuan Penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui adakah hubungan antara faktor umur, pendidikan, dan paritas dengan kejadian Berat Badan Lahir Rendah di RSUD Palembang BARI Tahun 2013. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode survey analitik dengan pendekatan crosss sectional. Populasi penelitian ini adalah semua ibu yang melahirkan dan dirawat inap di instalasi kebidanan RSUD Palembang BARI Tahun 2013 berjumlah 901. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada bulan Februari 2014. Sampel penelitian diambil dengan metode sistematic random sampling. Analisa data menggunakan uji statistik Chi – Square. Hasil penelitian analisis univariat ini menunjukkan bahwa 193 (69,4%) responden mengalami BBLR, dan 85 (30,6%) responden mengalami BBLN. 63 (22,7%) responden dengan umur ibu resiko tinggi dan 215 (77,3%) responden dengan umur ibu resiko rendah. 157 (56,5%) responden dengan ibu pendidikan rendah dan 121 (43,5%) responden dengan ibu pendidikan tinggi. 48 (17,3%) reponden dengan ibu paritas tinggi dan 230 (82,7%) responden dengan ibu paritas rendah. Sehingga analisa bivariat menunjukkan ada hubungan yang bermakna antara umur ibu dengan kejadian BBLR dengan P value = 0,035, ada hubungan yang bermakna antara pendidikan dengan kejadian BBLR dengan P value = 0,006 dan ada hubungan yang bermakna antara paritas dengan kejadian BBLR dengan P value = 0,041. Disarankan bagi petugas kesehatan (bidan) rumah sakit agar dapat dijadikan sebagai bahan informasi mengenai terjadinya BBLR dan sebagai bahan masukan serta evaluasi keberhasilan dalam pelayanan kesehatan yang baik atau bila perlu dilakukannya penyuluhan serta asuhan  tentang BBLR khususnya kepada ibu yang melahirkan Bayi dengan BBLR.

Background: Advanced maternal age is an important predictor for maternal and neonatal outcomes such as maternal mortality, low birth weight, stillbirth, preterm birth, cesarean section and preeclampsia. Objective: To determine the association of advanced maternal age and adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in Iranian pregnant women. Methods: In this hospital-based cross-sectional study, 5117 pregnant women from 103 hospitals in Tehran, Iran, were participated in the study in 2015. The required data were gathered from hospitals which equipped to the department of obstetrics and gynecology. Advanced maternal age was considered as an independent variable and unwanted pregnancy, preeclampsia, preterm birth, cesarean section and low birth weight were considered as interested outcomes. Results: In our study, the prevalence of advanced maternal age was 12.08%. Advanced maternal age was significantly associated with higher risk of unwanted pregnancy (OR: 1.39, 95% CI: 1.12-1.73), preterm birth (OR: 1.75, 95% CI: 1.28- 2.39) and cesarean section (OR: 1.34, 95% CI: 1.03-1.74). In our study, there was no significant relationship between advanced maternal age and preeclampsia but this relationship could be clinically important (OR: 1.48, 95% CI: 0.99-2.20, P=0.052), and there is no significant relationship between advanced maternal age and low birth weight (OR: 1.08, 95% CI: 0.67-1.74, P=0.736). Conclusion: Advanced maternal age is associated with higher risk of unintended pregnancy, preterm birth and cesarean section but our findings did not support advanced maternal age as a risk factor associated with low birth weight.
