Khadijah, Siti

Abstract :

Hypothermia is one of the causes of mortality and morbidity in newborns. One way to prevent hypothermia is to do Early Breastfeeding Initiation (IMD). Early eastfeeding (IMD) initiation is a skin to skin action between the baby and the mother which is done by directly putting a newborn baby on the mother‘s east. The purpose of this study was to look at the Effect of Early Breastfeeding Initiation (IMD) on Body Temperature of Newborns at BPM "F" Regency of Agam. The method of research it was quasi experimental with approach pre test–post test, carried out in BPM "F" District Agam on month from April to October 2019. Selection of samples with consecutive sampling by the number of samples of 10 people with IMD and 10 groups of control. The data were processed using the test Paired T–Test. Results of the study showed differences in average body temperature before and after the intervention –0.39 with stsandar deviation 0, 056 . Statistical test results obtained p value 0,000 means that there is an effect of IMD on the body temperature of newborns . It is expected that health workers can carry out IMD to all maternity mothers because IMD can reduce the risk of hypothermic events.
