Abstract
Underweight among toddlers is a chronic problem in wetland settlements. The objective of this research, therefore, was to analyze the association between a toddler’s personal hygiene and environmental sanitation with nutritional status. The focus on this research was on children in Ogan Ilir Regency. Observational analytical research with a cross-sectional approach was used, along with multi stage cluster sampling, involving a total of 152 toddlers. Data was collected through interviews using questionnaires, and observations were made using a checklist. Data processing was performed using computer software. The data was then analyzed using a Chi-square test at 0.05 level of significance. The results showed that there was a significant association between personal hygiene with a toddler's nutritional status (p=0.02). Also, a previous history of disease and infection significantly correlated with nutritional status (p=0.032), as did the physical quality of available water (p=0,002). It was also found that sewer wastewater quality (p=0,879), latrine quality (p=0,120), the presence of smokers in the home (p = 0.880), and chemical exposure (p=1,000) were not strongly associated with nutritional status. Therefore, it can be concluded that personal hygiene and the physical quality of clean water are determinant factors of a child’s nutritional status.
