Abstract

Background: Hemoglobin (Hb) is a protein molecule containing iron from red blood
cells and myoglobin in the muscles which functions to carry oxygen from the lungs to
all body tissues and brings back carbon dioxide from all body tissues to the lungs to be
excreted from the body. Hb level during pregnancy is very important because it affects
the condition of the mother and fetus. If the Hb level of pregnant women is low, it can
cause anemia. Symptoms of anemia are dizziness, pallor, nausea, vomiting, fatigue,
and decreased appetite. One of the foods that are good for pregnant women to consume
is corn. It contains vitamins B1, B6, B9, B12, Biotin and pantothenic acid to metabolize
carbohydrates, coenzymes, increase endurance, overcome nausea and vomiting, Hb
formation and prevent anemia. Objectives : This study aimed to determine the benefits of corn in trimester I pregnant
women against complaints of pregnant women in trimester I.
Methods : This research was a quasi-experiment with a pretest-posttest two group design
approach in Lohia District, Muna Regency, Southeast Sulawesi in 2020 with simple random
sampling and the subjects in this study consisted of 20 in intervention and 20 in controls.
The data collection technique was done by using an observation sheet to record the Hb
measurement results. The t-test was used as a sample analysis test to determine the
benefits of corn.
Results : The results showed that in the first trimester of pregnant women, there was a
significant increase in Hb levels after being given corn (Zea Mays) with P value = 0.000
<α = 0.05.
Conclusion : The benefits of giving corn to trimester I pregnant women against complaints
of trimester I pregnant women
.
