Stunting Super App as an Effort Toward Stunting Management in Indonesia: Delphi and Pilot Study

Stunting Super App as an Effort Toward Stunting Management in Indonesia: Delphi and Pilot Study

In Indonesia, the Basic Health Research data show that the prevalence of stunting in toddlers in 2018 reached 30.8% [3]. Further, based on the Indonesian Toddler Nutrition Status Survey, the prevalence of stunting in 2021 was 24.4% (5.33 million children) [4].

Temporal Trends in the Prevalence of Child Undernutrition in China From 2000 to 2019, With Projections of Prevalence in 2030: Cross-Sectional Analysis

Temporal Trends in the Prevalence of Child Undernutrition in China From 2000 to 2019, With Projections of Prevalence in 2030: Cross-Sectional Analysis

Although the prevalence of stunting and wasting has been decreasing in LMICs in recent years, progress is slow, and regional differences are significant [5,11]. In addition, only 26.7% of LMICs will achieve national-level targets for both stunting and wasting by 2025, and only 4.8% will achieve these 2 goals globally [5], remaining far from the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Nutrition Targets (GNTs) to reduce stunting by 40% and wasting to less than 5% by 2025 [5,12].

During the survey rounds NFHS-2 to NFHS-5, the spatial patterns of stunting, wasting, and underweight among children were found to be nonrandom. For stunting, wasting, and underweight, the value of Global Moran I varied from 0.293 to 0.419, 0.253 to 0.033, and 0.404 to 0.584, respectively, indicating significant clustering of these indicators across the country (Table 3) in NFHS-2, NFHS-4, and NFHS-5.

Influence of Maternal Exposure to Mass Media on Growth Stunting Among Children Under Five: Mediation Analysis Through the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Program

Undernutrition resulted in approximately 45% of deaths in children under 5 years, while stunting affected approximately 149 million children under 5 years in 2020 globally [1], posing significant global health issues. The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) defines stunting rate as the percentage of children aged between 0 to 59 months whose height is between 2 standard deviations (moderate and severe stunting) and 3 standard deviations (severe stunting) below the median for their age [2].

Use of Technology to Access Health Information/Services and Subsequent Association With WASH (Water Access, Sanitation, and Hygiene) Knowledge and Behaviors Among Women With Children Under 2 Years of Age in Indonesia: Cross-sectional Study

Use of Technology to Access Health Information/Services and Subsequent Association With WASH (Water Access, Sanitation, and Hygiene) Knowledge and Behaviors Among Women With Children Under 2 Years of Age in Indonesia: Cross-sectional Study

Households in 112 rural districts in India that had access to a toilet facility, compared with open defecation, had 39% reduced odds of childhood stunting in the first 24 months [5]. Stunting is of particular concern to child development as stunted children have reduced cognitive function, adult economic productivity, as well as increased mortality and morbidity [6,7]. Stunting is also a major challenge in Indonesia where approximately 37% of all children are stunted [8].

Specialized Nutritious Food Combined With Cash Transfers and Social and Behavior Change Communication to Prevent Stunting Among Children Aged 6 to 23 Months in Pakistan: Protocol for a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

Child stunting remains a major barrier to human capital development worldwide. In 2018, a total of 149 million, or 22%, of children younger than 5 years worldwide were found to be stunted [1]. South Asia has 57.9 million stunted children younger than 5 years, one of the highest burdens of stunting across regions [2]. In Pakistan, the prevalence of stunting in children younger than 5 years has remained above global critical levels over the last two decades, with the stunting rate being 40.2% in 2018.
