S Stunting merupakan kondisi kegagalan pada perkembangan fisik yang diukurtinggi badan berdasarkan umur dengan nilai Z-score <-2 SD (Standart Deviation).Faktor yang dapat menyebabkan seorang anak terkena stunting diantaranya yaitukurangnya asupan makanan dengan gizi pada bayi dan balita dan penyakit infeksi.Penyakit infeksi paling sering diderita balita adalah ISPA dan diare. Penelitian inibertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara riwayat infeksi kronis dengankejadian stunting pada balita.METODEPenelitian ini menggunakan desain cross sectional dengan pemilihan subjekmenggunakan metode consecutive sampling dan didapatkan 63 responden diPuskesmas Kecamatan Grogol Petamburan pada bulan Mei 2023.

Analisis statistikmenunjukkan terdapat hubungan antara riwayat infeksi kronis dengan kejadianstunting (p=0,000).KESIMPULANDapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat hubungan bermakna antara riwayat infeksikronis dengan kejadian stunting pada balita
S Stunting is a condition of failure in physical development measured by heightbased on age with a Z-score value of <-2 SD (Standard Deviation). Factors thatcan cause a child to be stunted include lack of nutritional food intake in infantsand toddlers and infectious diseases. The most common infectious diseasessuffered by toddlers are ISPA and diarrhea. This study aims to determine therelationship between a history of chronic infection and the incidence of stunting intoddlers.METHODSThis study used a cross sectional design with subject selection using theconsecutive sampling method and obtained 63 respondents at the PuskesmasGrogol Petamburan District in May 2023.
