PENGARUH MODISCO TERHADAP PENINGKATAN BERAT BADAN PADA BALITA
Abstract
Defisiensi gizi merupakan ketidakseimbangan atau kekurangan antara kebutuhan energi dengan asupan yang dikonsumsi sehari-hari, atau dapat diartikan nutrisi yang dikonsumsi dibawah rata-rata. Dampak yang terjadi ketika seorang balita mengalami malnutrisi berpengaruh pada terjadinya gangguan pertumbuhan dan perkembangan. Upaya yang dapat dilakukan dengan pemberian Modified Dietetic Skimmed Milk and Coconut Oil (Modisco) karena mengandung lebih tinggi kalori dan protein. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui pengaruh modisco terhadap peningkatan berat badan pada balita. Jenis penelitian ini adalah quasi eksperimental dengan pendekatan pretest posttes without control grup design. Tempat penelitian di Azzamil day care Kabupaten Pekalongan bulan Maret-Mei 2023. Sample yang digunakan 18 balita gizi kurang, dengan teknik purposive sampling Instrumen yang digunakan yaitu lembar observasi. Modisco formula I yaitu susu full krim 100gr, gula pasir 50gr, margarine 50 gr dan dicampur dalam air hangat diberikan sehari 1x selama 30 hari. Analisis data menggunakan analisis bivariate dengan uji beda mean, yaitu uji paired t test. Hasil penelitian diperoleh rata-rata berat badan balita sebelum dilakukan intervensi adalah 9,50 kg dan setelah diberikan memiliki rata-rata 10,21 kg dengan selisih kenaikan sebesar 710 gram. Nilai p diperoleh sebesar 0,000 (<0,05) hal ini juga menunjukkan berarti terdapat pengaruh modisco terhadap peningkatan berat badan pada balita. Kesimpulan bahwa modisco salah nutrisi tambahan yang tinggi protein dan kalori yang mampu meningkatkan berat badan pada anak terutama dengan gizi kurang, sehingga diharapkan modisco menjadi salah satu alternative program nutrisi tambahan yang dapat diberikan dalam penatalaksanaan gizi kurang dan gizi buruk.
Nutritional deficiency is an imbalance or deficiency between energy needs and the intake consumed daily, or it can be interpreted as the nutrition consumed being below average. The impact that occurs when a toddler experiences malnutrition has an impact on growth and development disorders. Efforts that can be made are by giving Modified Dietetic Skimmed Milk and Coconut Oil (Modisco) because it contains higher calories and protein. The aim of this research was to determine the effect of modisco on weight gain in toddlers. This type of research is quasi experimental with a pretest posttest approach without control group design. The research location was Azzamil day care, Pekalongan Regency, March-May 2023. The sample used was 18 malnourished toddlers, using a purposive sampling technique. The instrument used was an observation sheet. Modisco formula I, namely 100g full cream milk, 50g granulated sugar, 50g margarine and mixed in warm water, is given once a day for 30 days. Data analysis uses bivariate analysis with a mean difference test, namely the paired t test. The research results showed that the average weight of toddlers before the intervention was carried out was 9.50 kg and after it was given the average was 10.21 kg with a difference in increase of 710 grams. The p value obtained was 0.000 (<0.05), this also shows that there is an influence of modisco on increasing body weight in toddlers. The conclusion is that Modisco is one of the additional nutrients that is high in protein and calories which can increase body weight in children, especially those with malnutrition, so it is hoped that Modisco will become an alternative additional nutrition program that can be provided in the management of malnutrition and malnutrition.
