Abstract
One of the causes of death of children under five is chronic malnutrition or stunting. The government has made a policy as an effort to reduce stunting. Specific intervention nutrition programs are activities that directly address the occurrence of stunting. Evaluation of edit interventions that have currently been carried out but have not separated the process based on intervention indicators so that it results in a long processing time and large exit costs so we need a system that can accelerate the process of evaluating specific interventions. Information systems for evaluating specific interventions can be a solution to this problem. In this study, an information system for evaluating specific interventions of stunting cases was developed web-based to facilitate real-time operation. The evaluation information system is designed to collect national data and carry out a clustering process using the k-means method and evaluation stucture cluster using silhouette method. In this study an evaluation value of 34 provinces was obtained which was divided into several clusters as a result of evaluation process in the information system.
Highlights
One form of chronic malnutrition that lasts for a long time due to failure to meet nutrition in infants is called stunting [1]
We provide a solution with an evaluation information system that can accelerate the evaluation of the performance of nutrition programs for specific stunting case interventions that can assist government efforts in suppressing the prevalence of national stunting
The results of the analysis of the silhouette method show that cluster k = 2 with a score of 0.315 has the best cluster structure compared to the cluster 3 of the other cluster types
Summary
One form of chronic malnutrition that lasts for a long time due to failure to meet nutrition in infants is called stunting [1]. Regional Health Research (RISKESDAS) in 2018 noted that Indonesia has a stunting prevalence rate of 30.8%, where the WHO annual target is no more than 20% [3]. In 2017 the National Team for the Acceleration of Poverty Reduction (TNP2K) by the Ministry of National Development Planning / Indonesian National Development Planning Agency has established priority areas for stunting intervention action plans. Growth in age / height for the global average is surprisingly from the National Center for Health Statistics and the Cambridge reference, has experienced resistance after birth and continues thereafter and persisted into the third year. These findings highlight the need for prenatal and early life interventions to prevent growth failure [4]
