Abstract

Anemia is the most common medical disorders encountered during pregnancy and affects 20% of pregnant women. Anemia is indicated when the hemoglobin (Hb) less than 12 g/dl in women who are not pregnant or less than 10 g/dl in pregnant women. Knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women are closely related to anemia prevention behavior. In primigravida and multigravida pregnant women may have differences in anemia prevention behavior. This study was aimed to compare the differences of anemia prevention behavior between primigravida and multigravida pregnant women. Design used in this study was comparative study. The population was 51 pregnant women. Total sample was 30 respondents, taken using purposive sampling. The dependent variable were primigravida and multigravida pregnant women. The independent variable was the behavior (knowledge, attitude, and practice) of anemia prevention of pregnant women. Data were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test with level of significance <0,05. Result showed that there were differences of knowledge between primigravida and multigravida (p=0,008), differences of attitude between primigravida and multigravida attitude (p=0,028), differences of practice between primigravida and multigravida (p=0,008). It can conclude that the knowledge, attitude and practice of pregnant women between multigravida were better than primigravida. Further studies should study about anemia prevention behavior involving more specific trimester of pregnant women.
