Abstract


Iron deficiency anemia that often occurs in pregnancies may be due to the pregnant women’s inconsistency in consuming Fe tablets. The husbands’ role is required to increase their consumption. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of online couple classes in increasing the husbands’ support and in increasing the Hb Rate of pregnant women with anemia. This is quasi-experiment research, with a pretest-posttest one-group design. This research is located at the Kartoharjo Community Health Center Area, Magetan Regency, East Java, Indonesia, in 2020. The sample of this research is 18 pregnant women with anemia (Hb <11 gr%) and their husbands. The husbands’ support is measured using valid and reliable questionnaires. The Hb rate data is obtained from the laboratory. The analysis is tested using the paired t-test. The results show that the online couple classes are effective in increasing the husband’s support towards the pregnant women’s consumption of Fe tablets (significance value: 0.003) and online couple classes are effective in increasing the Hb rate of pregnant women with anemia (significance value: 0.0000). With the increase of the husbands’ support, the pregnant women with anemia increase the routine in consuming Fe tablets. This consistent consumption increases their Hb.
