Iron Intake and Socio-Economic Factors With The Incidence of Anemia in Pregnant Women
Keywords:
iron, pregnant women, anemiaAbstract
Maternal mortality is increased in pregnant women with anemia. The prevalence of anemia is linked to inadequate information, education, and iron intake. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between the occurrence of anemia in pregnant women and socioeconomic variables and iron consumption. It was a cross-sectional study. Using sequential sampling, 140 respondents made up the sample size. Anemia and iron intake were shown to be significantly correlated (p=0.03). Anemia did not substantially correlate with socioeconomic factors, such as mother work (p=0.40), maternal education (p=0.05), or family income (p=0.85). It is advised that midwives educate patients about the value of consuming iron.
