30. Bisoi, S et al. (2011). Correlates of anemia among pregnant women in a rural area of West Bengal. The Journal of Family Welfare, 57(1) : 72-78. Background: WHO estimates that over one third of the world’s population suffers from Anaemia. Globally, 44 million pregnant women are hookworm infested (WHO). In India, it affecting 90 per cent of pregnant women. Objectives: Objective is to estimate the magnitude and explore sociodemographic and other correlates of Anaemia among pregnant women. Methodology: This is a descriptive study with cross-sectional design conducted from April to December 2005 in an antenatal clinic of Nasibpur sub-centre under the Nasibpur Union Health Centre (U.H.C.0 of Singur Rural Training Centre (RTC), Hooghly, and West Bengal. Sample comprised of 177 women. Findings: On the whole 67.8 per cent pregnant women were anaemic with 50.9 per cent, 12.4 per cent and 4.5 per cent having mild, moderate and severe grades respectively, over one-third of the participants reported to be living in joint families showed significantly higher proportion of Anaemia compared to those living in nuclear families (78.5% v/s 61.6%); prevalence of Anaemia was 59.4 per cent, 67.8 per cent and 77.4 per cent among pregnant women in the 1 st, 2 nd and 3 rd trimester respectively showing no significant relationship between Anaemia and duration of pregnancy; a minimum interval of two years between the present pregnancy and delivery/ outcome of last pregnancy was revealed to be an important predictor of Anaemia; over 10 per cent of pregnant women were found to consume full course i.e. 100 days of Iron Folic Acid (IFA) tablets. Others were midway to finish/ just started to consume/ not consuming and 33.3 per cent of them had Anaemia; over 31.3 per cent of women had hookworm infestation and a statistically significant high prevalence of Anaemia in comparison to the non-infested group; no pregnant women reported to take extra meal during pregnancy though some of them (22%) consumed few extra food item like milk; curd, ghee and fruits on a regular basis and prevalence of Anaemia was found to be not different in comparison to those who did not consume. Recommendation: Factors like short birth interval, delayed registration of pregnancy, ineffective use of IFA tablet, administration of Albendazole for hookworm infestation should be tackled by providing need-based, demand driven, client-oriented quality care to pregnant woman and adolescent girls since childhood through the network of sub-centres many of which are 56 __________________________________________________________________________________ DCWC Research Bulletin Vol. XVI April - June 2012
functioning sub-optimally; alternative strategies e.g. fortification of flour, oil or salt with iron and other micronutrients; routine mass administration of Albendazole, regular screening of Anaemia in adolescent girls and providing iron supplementation from school days, annual screening for at risk groups are required and it’s required to focus more on behaviour change towards iron rich food consumption, proper cooking habits, basic sanitation and care seeking through the routine health system (MPWs, ICDS, ASHA and Mahila Mandal etc) including school health.
