Nutritional Status, Postpartum, PerineumAbstract
Background: The puerperium represents a critical phase of maternal recovery, necessitating specialized oversight—particularly regarding the repair of perineal lacerations. It is hypothesized that a mother’s nutritional profile serves as a primary determinant in either accelerating or obstructing the physiological healing of such wounds. Objective: This research was designed to evaluate the correlation between maternal nutritional intake and the recovery rate of perineal wounds at BPM Ayang Lestari, Simalungun Regency, North Sumatra, in 2024.Methods: Adopting a quantitative framework with a cross-sectional design, the study focused on a population of postpartum women presenting with perineal lesions at the facility. Participants were selected via a purposive sampling technique. Data acquisition involved a combination of structured interviews and clinical observations, with the subsequent analysis utilizing the Chi-square statistical test to identify inter-variable relationships.Results: The findings demonstrated that mothers with optimal nutritional standing exhibited significantly faster wound closure compared to those with poor nutritional status. Statistical analysis confirmed a significant association between these variables (p < 0.05). Conclusion: There is a definitive link between nutritional fulfillment and the efficacy of perineal wound healing. Consequently, prioritizing nutritional surveillance during the postpartum period is essential for enhancing midwifery care quality and mitigating the risk of long-term obstetric complications.
