Effectiveness Of Education Regarding Stunting Prevention to Cadres: Systematic Literature Review

Abstract

Stunting, a disease characterized by prolonged nutritional deficiency during the initial 1,000 days of a newborn's life, continues to be a significant health concern in Indonesia, holding the second highest global prevalence. Ineffective parenting practices, insufficient prenatal care, challenges getting to nutrients and clean water, and infectious illnesses are some of the factors that contribute to childhood stunting. The provision of education to cadres on the prevention of stunting is one of the aspects of stunting prevention that plays a significant role in the process of overcoming the variables which lead to stunting from their underlying causes. Through the transmission of health information, the training that is offered to cadres has the potential to promote public health. This research wants to see how effective stunting education is in increasing cadres' knowledge about stunting prevention. In this study, a systematic literature review was combined with a search for systematic studies using the PRISMA technique, and the search was conducted on two national journal portals. The primary discussion of the study was based on six papers, all of which were investigated with a cross-sectional design that included stunting prevention instruction for cadres. These studies were chosen for the research project. Education with audiovisual media and lecture and discussion techniques has a 70% efficacy rate in expanding cadre knowledge. This is the way with the highest effectiveness rate.
