PENGARUH PEMBERIAN BUAH KURMA TERHADAP PENINGKATAN KADAR HEMOGLOBIN PADA REMAJA PUTRI ANEMIA

Abstrak

Anemia sering terjadi khususnya pada remaja putri, karena pada masa ini terjadi peningkatan kebutuhan zat besi akibat adanya pertumbuhan dan menstruasi. Berdasarkan dinkes jateng di Kabupaten Semarang prevalensi anemia sebesar 12,84 %.

Kurma khalas mengandung karbohidrat khalas, protein, lemak, serat, kalsium, fosfor, natrium, kalium, zat besi, zinc, vitamin C dan serat yang dapat membantu meningkatkan penyerapan zat besi. Tujuan : Mengetahui pengaruh buah kurma terhadap peningkatan kadar hemoglobin pada remaja putri anemia. Metode : Penelitian Pre-Experimental dengan desain One Group Pretest-Posttest dengan populasi seluruh remaja kelas 10 yang mengalami anemi ringan-sedang, sampel 22. Intervensi buah kurma dengan dosis 7 buttir sehari selama 7 hari. Uji Analisa dengan Paired Sample T-Test Hasil : Rata-rata hemoglobin sebelum diberikan perlakuan 10,3 g/dl sedangkan rata-rata hemoglobin sesudah perlakuan 11,9 g/dl mengalami kenaikan sebanyak 1,6 g/dl . Analisis statistic didapatkan p value 0,000 (<0,00%). Kesimpulan : Ada pengaruh buah kurma terhadap peningkatan kadar hemoglobin pada remaja putri anemia.

Anemia is often encountered, especially in teenage girls, as there is an increased need for iron during this period due to growth and menstruation. According to the Central Java Health Department, the prevalence of anemia in Semarang Regency is 12.84%. The impacts of anemia on teenage girls include dizziness, blurred vision, pale eyelids, lips, tongue, skin, and palms, as well as feelings of lethargy, weakness, fatigue, and exhaustion, which can have long-term effects since women will eventually become pregnant and have children. Khalas dates contain carbohydrates, protein, fat, fiber, calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, iron, zinc, vitamin C, and fibers that can help improve iron absorption. Objective: To determine the effect of dates on increasing hemoglobin levels in anemic teenage girls. Method: Pre-experimental research with a One Group Pretest-Posttest design involving all 10th-grade teenagers who experience mild to moderate anemia, with a sample size of 22. The intervention involves dates with a specific dosage 7 dates per day for 7 days. Analysis Test with Paired Sample T-Test Results: The average hemoglobin before treatment was 10.3 g/dl while the average hemoglobin after treatment was 11.9 g/dl, an increase of 1.6 g/dl. Statistical analysis showed a p value of 0.000 (<0.00%). Conclusion: There is an effect of dates on the increase of hemoglobin levels in anemic teenage girls.
