Exclusive Breastfeeding Associated with the Reduction of Acute Respiratory Tract Infections in Toddlers with High-Risk Factors

Abstract: Introduction: Acute respiratory tract infections (ARI) is a disease that is the primary cause of death, especially in children. Toddlers can be prevented from developing ARI with increased immunity. Giving breast milk can increase children's immunity, but there are still children who experience ARI. This study aimed to explain the differences in Acute Respiratory Tract Infections (ARI) events in toddlers who are exclusively and non-exclusively breastfed. Methods: The research design used was descriptive-comparative with a retrospective design. The population in this study were all children one to three years of age. A sample of 158 toddlers was recruited by a purposive sampling technique. Data retrieval was done with the criteria that the child had visited a public health centre (puskesmas) or integrated health care service post (posyandu), and does not suffer from a disease such as asthma or have any allergies. The variables were measured using a questionnaire and observation sheet. Data analysis was done by a chi-square test and binary logistic regression. Results: The results showed that there were differences in ARI incidence in toddlers (one to three years) who were exclusively and non-exclusively breastfed with a value of p = 0.003. The air pollution factor proved to be significant, dominantly affecting the incidence of ARI. Conclusion: Differences in ARI incidence in toddlers who are exclusively and non-exclusively breastfed is possible due to air pollution factors. Key implications for nursing practice from this research are improving services, and prevent the occurrence of ARI.

Hubungan antara Riwayat Pemberian ASI Eksklusif dan Kejadian ISPA pada Bayi Umur 1 Tahun di RSUD Panembahan Senopati Bantul

Abstract: Infeksi Saluran Pernafasan merupakan salah satu penyebab AKB dan menempati urutan kedua penyebab kematian bayi yaitu sebanyak 27,6%. ASI Eksklusif terbukti dapat menurunkan risiko terserang penyakit akut dan kronis termasuk ISPA. Hal ini dikarenakan ASI memiliki efek protektif terhadap penyakit infeksi. Berdasarkan Studi Pendahuluan yang dilakukan di RSUD Penembahan Senopati Bantul pada tahun 2009 di dapatkan jumlah ISPA adalah 698 kasus dan menempati urutan ke dua pada penyakit pada anak. Penelitian ini untuk mengetahui hubungan antara riwayat pemberian asi eksklusif dan kejadian ispa pada bayi umur 1 tahun di RSUD Panembahan Senopati Bantul tahun 2010 Desain yang digunakan yaitu dengan survey analitik, dengan metode Restropektive. Populasi dalam penelitian ini ada 30 responden. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan sampel sampling aksidental. Data penelitian diambil secara sekunder dengan wawancara. Uji analisis menggunakan Chi Kuadrat. Untuk mengetahui tingkat kekuatan hubungan antar variabel digunakan computer dengan analisis statistik koefesien kontingensi. Hasil penelitian didapatkan bahwa dari 30 responden, Riwayat pemberian ASI eksklusif dan kejadian ISPA terendah adalah pada kategori ISPA tinggi serta terbanyak dengan ISPA kategori sedang. Pada riwayat pemberian ASI non eksklusif dan kejadian ISPA terbanyak adalah kategori ISPA sedang dan terendah adalah pada kategori ISPA rendah. Berdasarkan pengujian dengan komputer didapatkan hasil Chi Kuadrat p = 0,005 atau lebih kecil dari 0,05 artinya hubungan antara riwayat pemberian ASI Eksklusif dan kejadian sakit ISPA. hingga terdapat hubungan antara riwayat pemberian ASI Eksklusif dan kejadian sakit ISPA Koefisien kontingensi sebesar 0,507 atau berada dalam interval 0,40 sampai 0,599 dengan kotigensi sedang. Dari hasil tersebut, diharapkan bagi tenaga kesehatan khususnya bidan dan dokter lebih optimal melakukan pelayanan KIA dan bagi
