Upper Arm Circumference (UAC), Pregnant Women, Birth Weight of InfantsAbstract
The nutritional status of pregnant women plays an important role in supporting fetal growth and development and maintaining maternal health during pregnancy. One indicator for assessing the nutritional status of mothers and fetal development is the measurement of upper arm circumference (UAC). This study aims to analyze the relationship between UAC in pregnant women and birth weight. This study employed a quantitative analytical design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of 219 pregnant women who gave birth at the Mamboro Community Health Center in 2024. A sample of 69 people was selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through medical records and maternal and child health (MCH) books. Data analysis was performed using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that mothers with an upper arm circumference (UAC) ≥23.5 cm mostly gave birth to babies weighing ≥2500 g (82.4%), while mothers with a UAC <23.5 cm mostly gave birth to babies weighing <2500 g (55.6%). There was a significant relationship between upper arm circumference (UAC) in pregnant women and birth weight of babies with a p-value=0.004 (p<0.05). It is hoped that health workers can routinely measure UAC in every pregnant woman and provide ongoing nutrition education and counseling.
