BERAT DAN PANJANG BAYI SERTA NILAI Z SKORBAYI DENGAN ASI PREDOMINAN DAN PARSIAL BERDASARKAN STANDAR WHO 2005 DAN NCHS\WHO

Abstract

New WHO standard introduce to implemented in every country including Indonesia. The
population of children to develop new standard comes from good economic status and low
mobility. Three quarters infant were exclusive/predominantly breastfed for at least four month. In
Indonesia, predominantly and partially breastfed most practiced than exclusive breastfeeding. To
compare the growth of infantsaccording to WHO new standard and NCHSreference. Methods:
Analyzed using secondary data of cohort prospective research of “the influence early
supplementation infant feeding to first four month infant growth”. Developing curve of infant weight
and length attainment for predominant and partially breastfed; also developing curve Z score
(weight for age, weight for length and length for age) for predominant and partially breastfed. Both
curves development are using new WHO standard and NCHS reference. During the first four
month, the weight and length deviation of infant with predominantly and partially breastfed using
new who standard larger than NCHS, and infant with predominantly breastfed better than partially
breastfed. The Z score curve for weight for age, length for age and weight for age simultaneously
as a pattern of new WHO standard, but since birth until 4 month age the number of Z score for
those indicators lower than WHO new standard. New WHO standard anthropometry more
representative to infant growth than NCHS reference.
