Pemberian makanan F100 dengan bahan substitusi tepung tempe terhadap status protein pasien anak dengan gizi kurang
Abstract: Much effort has been
made to counter the weaknesses of F100 through the development of milk powder
substituted with ingredients that have a high content of protein and energy,
high bioavailability and relatively low cost.
Objective: To analyze an effect of F100 supplementation using substitute
tempeh flour on protein status (total protein serum and serum albumin) among
undernourished pediatric patients.
Method: Experimental research with randomized clinical control trial
among 30 undernourished children consisting of open clinical trial in two
experiment groups, supplemented with F100 or substitute F100 (isoenergetic and
isoprotein diet) within 14 days. The study was undertaken in April-August 2010
at pediatric inpatient room of Dr. Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang. Data of food
intake were obtained through visual Comstock and 24-hour food recall; data of
total serum protein through biuret method; serum albumin (Alb) through
cellulose acetate electrophoresis method. Data analysis was using Pearson
Chi-Square test and unpaired t-test.
Results: The result of unpaired t-test on the average intake of energy,
protein, fat and carbohydrate showed there was no significant difference in
each experimental groups (p>0.05). The test result of total serum protein
level and serum Alb level showed there was no significant difference in each
experiment (p=0.240 and p=0.774). The result of correlation coefficient test
showed there was no significant association between intake of energy and
nutrient and total serum level and serum Alb level (p>0.05) and degree of
association showed a weak association (r>0.25).
Conclusion: Formula of F100 substitute as complementary food could be
used as an alternative food in diet therapy of malnourished children on
rehabilitation phase.
