Redata and Planning of Supplementary Feeding Menu (PMT) for Undernourished Toddlers

Abstract

To overcome malnutrition that occurs in the toddler age group, it is necessary to organize Recovery Supplementary Feeding (PMT). Supplementary Feeding (PMT) to the target needs to be done correctly according to the recommended consumption rules. Toddler Supplementary Food is nutritional supplementation in the form of additional food in the form of biscuits with special formulations and fortified with vitamins and minerals given to infants and toddlers aged 6-59 months with thin categories. This community service aims to update data on toddlers who have been suspected of suffering from malnutrition. The data collection results will be used to plan a PMT menu that is appropriate for his age, both carbohydrate, fat and protein needs. Community service activities are carried out in Paron Village, which is the working area of UPTD Puskesmas Ngasem, Kediri Regency. The community service team consisted of 2 lecturers of the Academy of Nutrition Karya Husada Kediri, and 4 students in semester V. Redata was carried out on 11 malnourished toddlers and the average ideal energy requirement was 1453 kcal. The calculation of energy supply from the PMT menu is on average 145.3 kcal. PMT is planned to be given 2 times a day, then the average weight of one type of PMT is 34.55 gr. The accuracy of the initial data will greatly determine the PMT menu that will be given.
