Abstract

The birth weight is the most determinant of the chances of the newborn to survive and experience normal growth and development. Low-birth-weight (LBW) could give a negative effect for the quality of the baby’s life. LBW may be caused by maternal factors, placental factors, fetal factors, and environmental factors. The objective of this study was to analyze factors correlated with the presence of LBW babies in Mataram Hospital. This study used case control design. The population was all mothers in Mataram Hospital who has delivery a baby at January-April 2008. Samples consisted of 50 LBW babies as case group and 50 babies with normal weight birth as control group. The independent variable were mother age, mother’s hemoglobin values at last trimester, maternal disease, parity, the previous pregnancy, and altitude. The dependent variable was LBW babies. Data were collected from the medical record of the mother and analyzed using chi-square test with level significant of p≤0.05. The result showed that mother age, parity, the previous pregnancy, and altitude have no correlation with the presence of LBW babies with significance level p=1.000, p=0.537, p=0.703, and p=0.674. And there were correlation between mother’s hemoglobin values at last trimester (p=0.000, OR=9.796), and maternal disease with the presence of LBW babies (p=0.020, OR=10.756). This study conclude LBW has relations with pregnant women who has hemoglobin values <11g% (anemia) especially at last trimester, and pregnant women who has medical disease. Therefore, it is necessary to have control the hemoglobin values during pregnancy and take the tablets of Fe during pregnancy.
