Abstract
Low birth weight is defined as a baby weighing less than 2500 grams, regardless of gestational age. Birth weight is the weight measured one hour after birth. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between maternal age and parity with the incidence of low birth weight infants at Prabumulih City Hospital in 2024.
This study used an analytical survey with a cross-sectional approach. The population of this study was all infants born at Prabumulih City Hospital between January and December 2024. A random sampling technique was used to select 256 newborns. The research instrument was a checklist.
In univariate analysis of the 256 respondents revealed that 106 (41.4%) of maternal age were at high risk, while 150 (58.6%) were at low risk. Furthermore, 111 (43.4%) of maternal parity were at high risk for LBW, while 145 (56.6%) were at low risk.
The bivariate analysis revealed a significant association between maternal age and LBW (p-value 0.000). Maternal parity was also significantly associated with LBW incidence (p-0.000).
The conclusion of this study is that there is a significant relationship between maternal age and parity and the incidence of low birth weight babies at Prabumulih City Hospital in 2024.
