'A STUDY TO ASSESS THE IMPLEMENTATION STATUS OF SELECTED INTERVENTIONS BEING TAKEN DURING ANTENATAL PERIOD TO PREVENT & CONTROL IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA AMONG THE POSTNATAL MOTHERS ADMITTED IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL OF DNH'
ABSTRACT
Introduction: The consequences of anemia in women are enormous as the condition adversely affects both their productive and reproductive capabilities. Among women, iron deficiency prevalence is higher than among men due to menstrual iron losses and the extreme iron demands of a growing foetus during pregnancies. “A study to assess the implementation status of selected interventions being taken during antenatal period to prevent & control Iron Deficiency Anemia among the postnatal mothers admitted in a Tertiary Care Hospital of DNH.’’
Objective: To assess the implementation status of selected interventions being taken to prevent & control Iron Deficiency Anemia among the postnatal mothers admitted in a Tertiary Care Hospital of DNH.
Methodology: There have been different interventions being taken place for prevent & control Iron Deficiency Anemia. Non Experimental Descriptive Research Design with Non - Probability convenient sampling technique was use to select 110 postnatal mothers who fulfil inclusion criteria. Structured Interview Schedule & Patient Case Record tool was used to assess the implementation status of selected interventions being taken to prevent & control Iron Deficiency Anemia among the postnatal mothers admitted in a Tertiary Care Hospital of DNH.
Result: Among the 110 mothers, majority of the mothers 104(94.54%) have tested their Hb level during 1st trimester. Majority of the mothers 54(49.09%) Hb level were normal. Majority of the mothers 99(90%) have tested their Hb level during 2nd trimester. Majority of the mothers 57(51.81%) Hb level were normal. Majority of the mothers 107 (97.27%) have tested their Hb level during 3rd trimester. Among 107 mothers, majority of the mothers 89(80.90%) Hb level were normal. Majority of the mothers 110(100%) mothers were prescribed IFA by doctor & received IFA tablets from hospital. Majority of the mothers 109(99.09%) mothers were taught by staff nurse how to take a Medicine. Majority of the mothers 107(97.27%) mothers have consumed IFA tablets regularly. Majority of the mothers 105(95.45%) mothers have not consumed IFA tablets with milk or milk products, 91(82.73%) experienced side effect nausea. Majority of the mothers 110(100%) mothers have prescribed Calcium supplement by doctor & received Calcium supplement tablet from the hospital. Majority of the mothers 108(98.18%) mothers have consumed Calcium supplement tablets regularly. Majority of the mothers 109(90.90%) mothers have consumed Calcium tablets at a fixed time but not with IFA & vitamin C tablet. Majority of the mothers 104(94.54%) mothers have not experienced any side effect. Majority of the mothers 101(91.81%) mothers have not prescribed Tablet Albandazole, 9(8.18%) have consumed Tablet Albandazole during the starting of the second trimester. Majority of the mothers 72(65.45%) mothers have awared about Fortified food.
Conclusion: This National Initiative aims to correct the strategy of combating anemia in the UT of Dadra and Nagar Haveli. This study to assess the implementation status of selected interventions being taken during antenatal period to prevent & control Iron Deficiency Anemia among the postnatal mothers. There have been different interventions being taken place for prevent & control Iron Deficiency Anemia. The present study concluded that all the selected interventions under the study have been implemented according to the National Guidelines to prevent and correct iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia using measures to increase iron intake through IFA supplementation, Deworming once after 1st Trimester, Food fortification, Timing of administrtion of iron supplementation & calcium supplements, Hb testing once in each trimester with iron; iron supplementation and improved health services.
