EFFECTIVENESS OF JAGGERY BALL ON HAEMOGLOBIN LEVEL AMONG YOUNG ADOLESCENT GIRLS WITH IRON DEFICIENCY ANAEMIA AT SELECTED SCHOOL OF VADODARA (AutoRecovered).docx
This document provides a synopsis for a study assessing the effectiveness of nutrition balls on haemoglobin levels among young adolescent girls in India. The study aims to evaluate haemoglobin levels before and after administering nutrition balls made from jaggery and amla powder. The background discusses the high prevalence of anaemia in India, especially among adolescent girls. A literature review found studies showing anaemia's relationship to poor nutrition and socioeconomic status. The study aims to test the hypothesis that nutrition balls can effectively increase haemoglobin levels and help address iron deficiency anaemia.
High risk approach in maternal and child healthShrooti Shah
High risk pregnancy is defined as one which is complicated by factor or factors that adversely affects the pregnancy outcome –maternal or perinatal or both.The risk factors may be pre-existing prior to or at the time of first antenatal visit or may develop subsequently in the ongoing pregnancy labour or puerperium.
Over 50 percent of all maternal complications and 60 percent of all primary caesarean sections arise from the high risk group of cases.

Labor consists of a series of rhythmic, involuntary or medically induced contractions of the uterus that result in effacement (thinning and shortening) and dilation of the uterine cervix. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines normal birth as follows:
The birth is spontaneous in onset and low risk at the start of labor and remains so throughout labor and delivery.
The infant is born spontaneously in the vertex position between 37 and 42 weeks of pregnancy.
After birth, mother and infant are in good condition (1).
The stimulus for labor is unknown, but digitally manipulating or mechanically stretching the cervix during examination enhances uterine contractile activity, most likely by stimulating release of oxytocin by the posterior pituitary gland.
Normal labor usually begins within 2 weeks (before or after) the estimated delivery date. In a first pregnancy, labor usually lasts 12 to 18 hours on average; subsequent labors are often shorter, averaging 6 to 8 hours.
Labor begins with irregular uterine contractions of varying intensity; they apparently soften (ripen) the cervix, which begins to efface and dilate. As labor progresses, contractions increase in duration, intensity, and frequency.
Stages of labor
There are 3 stages of labor.
The 1st stage—from onset of labor to full dilation of the cervix (about 10 cm)—has 2 phases, latent and active.
During the latent phase, irregular contractions become progressively coordinated, discomfort is minimal, and the cervix effaces and dilates to 4 cm. The latent phase is difficult to time precisely, and duration varies, averaging 8 hours in nulliparas and 5 hours in multiparas; duration is considered abnormal if it lasts > 20 hours in nulliparas or > 12 hours in multiparas.
During the active phase, the cervix becomes fully dilated, and the presenting part descends well into the midpelvis. On average, the active phase lasts 5 to 7 hours in nulliparas and 2 to 4 hours in multiparas. Traditionally, the cervix was expected to dilate about 1.2 cm/hour in nulliparas and 1.5 cm/hour in multiparas. However, recent data suggest that slower progression of cervical dilation from 4 to 6 cm may be normal (1). Pelvic examinations are done every 2 to 3 hours to evaluate labor progress. Lack of progress in dilation and descent of the presenting part may indicate dystocia (fetopelvic disproportion).
Standing and walking shorten the first stage of labor by > 1 hour and reduce the rate of cesarean delivery

What is ANEMIA ?
Anemia is the most common of all blood disorders. The term anemia (derived from Greek) means a deficiency of blood.
Anemia results from reduced red blood cell production in the bone marrow. Hemoglobin is the oxygen carrying protein in blood. It is a major component of all red blood cells and gives them their red color. This protein picks up oxygen from the lungs, carries it throughout the body and delivers it to all your cells. In addition, hemoglobin also picks up some of the carbon dioxide produced by the cells and transports it to the lungs from where it is exhaled out.
Effect of Nutrition Education on Anemic Rural Adolescent Girls in OdishaYogeshIJTSRD
Adolescence is considered as the nutritionally vulnerable period due to an increased demand for nutrients due to growth spurt. It has a far reaching implication on their reproductive health in their later years. In Odisha, the prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls in general, has not been well documented. Hence, the present study investigated the prevalence of anemia and effect of nutrition education on anemic adolescent girls in a selected population of Odisha. Adolescent girls 12 17 years who were studying in schools and colleges and residing in the study area for a minimum of six months were included in this study. Total numbers of 508 adolescent girls 12 17years were screened for anemia. Considering its association with the lack of right knowledge, attitude, and practice KAP , it could be preventable. The objectives of the study were 1 to assess the Knowledge, Attitude and Practice KAP of the adolescent girls about Anemia, 2 To determine the association between the selected demographic variables and the level of KAP among the adolescent girls, 3 to analyse the effectiveness of the planned nutrition education of Anemia programme on knowledge, attitude and practice.

Anemia is a critical public health problem in India that affects women and children throughout the lifecycle. The Govt. of India took an effort by launching the programme called “12 by 12 initiatives- addressing the problem of anemia in adolescents. Under Rajiv Gandhi Scheme for Adolescent Girls SABALA programme initiated in 2011, adolescent girls are being received weekly supplementation of iron folic acid tablets and biannual de worming tablets. Age at menarche, family type, mother’s educational status, personal hygiene and sanitation facilities and the gain score of knowledge, attitude and practice. There is a significant difference between the family income and the gain score of the knowledge, attitude and practice of anemia at the 0.05 level of significance. Thus, it is concluded that the demographic variables would have influence over the knowledge, attitude, and practice on anemia.

Abstract—Adolescents are the future resources for any country to progress and prosper. According to Census 2001, in India, adolescent constitute one-fifth of the total population. Adolescent AGs are one of the important segments of the population for they are the future mother whose nutritional status affects that of the newborn baby. Anemia being a major public health problem among adolescent girls, a study was conducted with the objective to determine the socio-demographic correlates of anemia among girls. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 467 adolescent AGs in Ahmadabad city during May 2011 to august 2012 in Adolescent Friendly Health Services clinics. Results: Prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls was 85.9%. Highest prevalence was observed during mid-adolescence phase. As the age of girls increases, Hemoglobin tends to get on the lower side. A statistically significant association was observed between anemia and nutritional status. No association was observed between anemia and religion, birth order, type of -family, education of parents and occupation of parents. Conclusion: Association between anemia and under-nutrition has been reported earlier in numerous studies; however present study highlights the fact that it is not common to have anemia among girls who are over nourished or obese. Hence, special efforts should be made to address this issue among girls by doing dietary modifications.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

INTRODUCTION
“Adolescence is perhaps nature’s way of preparing parents to Welcome the empty nest” –
Karen Savage
2. 2
Health is a fundamental human right and health is central to the concept of quality of life (Sundar Lal,
2007). A child ‘s nutritional status can have a great impact on their growth and development. In the
absence of proper nutrition, a state of many nutritional problems may occur. One of the important
components of RCH – II is the adolescent ‘s health.
The definition of health according to WHO, "Health is a state of complete physical, mental,
and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity".
Human is passed throughout the life in different stages like infant, children, adolescent, adult,
and older. Adolescent is a period were number of changes take place. The World Health
Organization (WHO) defines adolescents as young people aged 10-19 years. Adolescence is a
period in life that everyone must ‘survive’ in order to become an adult, although some goes
through it more turbulently than others. Adolescence is also a sensitive period, particularly for
girls. Adolescence is a time of intense physical growth. It is also a stage of stress and strain.
Most of them are having poor access to proper health care, nutrition and education.
In today’s era the young adolescent faces many health problems due to their life style
modifications like eating junk food, snacking, skipping meals, etc. Some are malnourished
because of lack of knowledge regarding dietary pattern, poor socioeconomic status, low income
etc. The other cause of health problem in adolescent girls is a heavy menstrual period. Which
can lead to low haemoglobin level in blood, and it leads to anemia. There are different types of
anemia like Iron deficiency anaemia, sickle cell anemia, haemolytic anaemia, megaloblastic
anaemia, Aplastic anaemia.
According to American Society of Haematology, "Iron is very important in maintaining
many body functions, including the production of haemoglobin, the molecule in your blood
that carries oxygen. Iron is also necessary to maintain healthy cells, skin, hair, and nails. Iron
from the food you eat is absorbed into the body by the cells that line the gastrointestinal tract;
the body only absorbs a small fraction of the iron you ingest. The iron is then released into the
blood stream, where a protein called transferrin attaches to it and delivers the iron to the liver.
Iron is stored in the liver as ferritin and released as needed to make new red blood cells in the
bone marrow. When red blood cells are no longer able to function (after about 120 days in
circulation), they are re-absorbed by the spleen. Iron from these old cells can also be recycled
by the body.”
As per the guidelines of National Health Portal Normal range of haemoglobin in women is
12.1 to 15.1 gm/dl, in men is 13.8 to 17.2 gm/dl and in children is 11 to 16 g/dl. [4]
3. 3
According to WHO, “Anaemia is a condition in which the number of red blood cells (and
consequently their oxygen-carrying capacity) is insufficient to meet the body’s physiologic
needs.”
Another definition of anaemia is, "It is a clinical condition that results from an inadequate
supply of healthy red blood cells, the volume of packed RBCs and/or the quantity of
haemoglobin. Anaemia is caused in one of three ways: Decreased production of healthy RBCs,
Increased RBCs destruction
And loss of blood.
So if the person is having less than normal range of haemoglobin level and may feel tired,
fatigue easily, appear pale, develop palpitations, and become shortness of breath can called
''Anaemic". Children with chronic anemia are prone to infections and learning problems.
Adolescence is a “coming of age”, as children grow into young adults. These teen years are a
period of intense growth, not only physically, but also mentally and socially. During this time,
20% of final adult height and 50% of adult weight are attained. Because of this rapid growth;
adolescents are especially vulnerable to anaemia. Proper nutrition, including adequate iron
intake, plays an important part of teenager ‘s growth and development. During adolescence,
teenagers will acquire the knowledge and skills that will help them to become independent,
successful young adults. Iron deficiency and iron deficiency anaemia can affect this learning
and 2 developments, but parents can help their teenagers stay healthy by teaching them some
easy ways to prevent iron deficiency.
Iron deficiency is the most prevalent micronutrient deficiency among adolescents. In teenagers,
iron deficiency is more than just being pale and tired. It can affect their development and school
performance. Studies have shown that adolescents with anaemia have decreased verbal
learning and memory capacity. Even before anaemia might develop, iron deficiency can cause
shortened attention span, alertness and learning in adolescents.
Adolescents with chronic illness, heavy menstrual blood loss (>80 ml/month) or who are
underweight or malnourished are at increased risk for iron deficiency and should be screened
during health supervision or specialty clinic visits. Overweight and obese children also appear
to be at increased risk for iron deficiency and should undergo screening
According to WHO estimates, India is one of the countries in the world that has highest prevalence of
anaemia WHO estimates that 27 percent of adolescents in developing countries are anaemic; the Inter
National Centre of Research for Women (ICRW) studies documented high rates in India (55 percent),
Nepal (42 percent),Cameroon (32 percent) and Guatemala (48 percent). Anaemia prevalence in young
children continues to remain over 70% in most parts of India and Asia despite a policy being in place
and a program that has been initiated for a long time.
Anaemia is not a specific entity but an indication of an underlying pathologic process or disease. As
many as 4–5 billion people i.e., 66–80% of world ‘s population may be iron deficient. More than 30%
of the world ‘s population i.e., 2 billion people 3 are anaemic due to iron deficiency. In total, 8,00,000
(15%) of deaths are attributed to iron deficiency. WHO lists iron deficiency as one of ―Top Ten Risk
Factors contributing to “Death” Iron deficiency anaemia is more common in South Asian countries
including, India, Bangladesh and Pakistan than anywhere else in the world. By contrast, the prevalence
of Iron deficiency anaemia in neighbouring countries such as Bangladesh and Pakistan have fallen to
55%. The reduction of Iron Deficiency Anaemia prevalence in China is especially remarkable i.e., the
4. 4
prevalence was halved from 20% to the current level of 8% within a decade. It is very difficult to
ascertain the true incidence of Iron Deficiency Anaemia, as the aetiology of anaemia is multifactorial.
Not eating enough iron can lead to anaemia, which causes tiredness and reduces the body ‘s ability to
fight of infection. Childhood obesity figures increase as youngsters get older so it’s vital that to make
sure healthy options are both appealing and affordable are available to young people. The UK National
Diet and Nutrition Survey, which involved more than 2,000 adults and children, found that teenage
girl’s diets were generally less healthy than boys. Boys eat an average three portions of fruit and
vegetables a day compared with 2.7 for girls.
The Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) found a 9 percent
incidence of iron deficiency and a 2 percent incidence of anaemia among American females between
the ages 12 and 18years; the respective values were 11 and 3 percent in girls between the ages of 16
and 19 years. Less than 1 percent of adolescent males had iron deficiency. Studies in other countries
have found higher rates of iron deficiency in male and female adolescents. The National Family Health
Survey (NFHS-3)conducted atIndia in 2007-2008, While 56 per cent of 4 adolescent girls are anaemic,
boys too are falling prey to the disease. Around 30 per cent of adolescent boys are suffering from
anaemia.
Iron deficiency anaemia is primarily due to inadequate intake of food, both in quantity and quality. In
availability of nutritional food, lack of money for purchasing food, traditional beliefs and taboos about
child ‘s diet and in sufficient balanced diet are resulting in anaemia. It is the underlying and associated
cause of childhood illness and death among the pre-school age group. It makes the child susceptible to
infection, and lower recovery from illness.
Teenage years are an important first opportunity to be responsible for their own food choices, so it‘s
worrying that so many in this age group are still not getting the nutrition properly. Malnourished
children are prone to develop continuous bouts of some illness. This condition can be easily set right if
we eat the right food in the right amount daily i.e., if the children ‘s consume a balanced diet every day
and develop good eating habits for good health.
NEED OF THE STUDY
“The adolescent girls still remain a young plant that neither gets light nor water, she remains
the flower that could have blossomed but didn’t.... Kamala Bhasin
Sadly it‘s surprising that teenage girls have a worse diet than their male counterparts as pressure on
females to stay slim seems to be starting at an increasingly young age. The youngsters’ diets are
becoming increasingly unhealthy and higher numbers are becoming overweight. This focus on weight
could be taking its toll on some of their vitamin and mineral intake, creating a nutritional gap which
could lead to its own health issues in the future.
It is estimated that according to WHO, approximately 24.8 % world’s population are affected
with an anaemia and 50% of an anaemic case is due to iron deficiency. Currently 1.62 billion
population is affected all over the world.
In India anaemia is a severe health problem, because 74.3% population are affected by
anaemia. Almost 58% of pregnant women are anaemic. In south Asia India contributed 80%
of the maternal deaths due to anaemia. According to the reports of National Family Health
Survey (NFHS) - 3 (2015 - 16) and the National Nutrition Monitoring Bureau Survey
(NNMBS) over 55% of adolescent girls are having anaemia that is alarmingly high. In Gujarat
prevalence rate of anaemia in the year 2015-16 is 54.9% in women, 21.7% in men and 62.6%
in children.

Jaggery has a characteristic of dark colour due to the presence of high iron content in it. It can
help to improve the level of haemoglobin. 100 gm of raw jaggery contains 3mg iron.
Anaemia is major health burden around the world. Low haemoglobin level is to be one of
the most prevalent forms of malnutrition. There is an urgent need to develop effective and
sustainable interventions to improve the haemoglobin level in the blood. Anaemia is
responsible for significant morbidity and mortality, particularly in under developed countries.
Many studies revealed that organic forms of nutrients derived from natural sources are much
easier than synthetic nutrients. Thus, the iron content in jaggery is easily absorbable and gives
more nutritive value than manmade forms of iron supplements. jaggery is a good choice for
improvement of haemoglobin level. It is cost effective, easily available, no side effects and it
can be easily stored.

1. ROL relatedto prevalence of haemoglobinand anaemia among young
adult
A cross sectional study on anaemia among adolescent girls in rural area was conducted by
Siddharam S M, Venketesh G M, Thejeshwari H L. The major goal of this study was to
determine the prevalence of anaemia among adolescent girls. Second objective was to study
the socio demographic variables correlated with anaemia. The study was conducted in selected
Anganwadi centres of rural area of Hassan district Karnataka, south India. The study total
prevalence of anaemia was 45.2%. In that finding 40% were mild anaemia, 55% were moderate
anaemia and 5% were severe anaemia. The study findings were proving that anaemia
prevalence rate was highly shows in adolescent girls, which gives proves that anaemia was
mainly shows in lower socioeconomic family. It concludes that nutritional factors or status of
adolescent girls was major impacting factors for causing anaemia.
A descriptive study to assess the prevalence of anaemia among women, was held
by Sathya P, Gandhimathi R and Viruthasarani K. The major objective of this study was to
determine the prevalence of anaemia among women. Sample size for this study was 245
women. The samples were selected by using the purposive sampling technique. The study were
conducted at selected urban areas of Coimbatore district. Tallquist method was using for
determine the haemoglobin level among women. Thus, the study findings clearly shows that
total of 250 women, in that 10 (4%) had severe anaemia (<8.0 g/dl), 145 (58%) had moderate
anaemia (8-10.9 g/dl), 6 (2.4%) had mild anaemia (11-11.9 g/dl), and 89 (35.6%) had their
normal haemoglobin level (>12.0g/dl). Conclusion of this study was shows that prevalence
and incidence of anaemia is more in developing countries like India. Study was mainly focused
on to determine the anaemic women in this research study setting
A cross-sectional study on haemoglobin status of non-school going adolescent girls
was conducted by Gandham Bulliyya, Gitanjali Mallick, Girija Sankar Sethy, and Santanu
Kumar Kar. The objective of this study was to identify prevalence of anaemia among non-
school going adolescent girls and to identify the correlation between Hb concentration, socio
demographic variables and nutritional factors. The sample size was total 1937 healthy
adolescent girls with age group between 11-19 years. Sample technique was probability
proportionate to size cluster sampling was using. The setting was choose for this study was
includes bargarh, khurda, and Jaipur district in Orissa. Study findings was clearly shows that
mean haemoglobin concentration value was 9.7±1.4 g/dL (range, 4.5–13.4 g/dL). In that, total
8. 8
1,869 (96.5%) adolescent girls were anaemic with Hb value was <12.0 g/dL. It also includes
4.4% adolescent girls were severe anaemia, 46.9% adolescent girls were moderate anaemia and
45.2% adolescent girls were mild anaemia.
A cross-sectional study on prevalence of anaemia and its associated risk factors among
adolescent girls of central Kerala was conducted by P.M. Siva, A. Sobha, and V.D. Manjula.
The aim of this study was to identify prevalence of anaemia and its factors associated with
adolescent girls. Total 257 adolescent girls were taken from ettumanoor panchayat, the field
practice area of Government Medical College, Kottayam. Pre-test and post-test was done
during the study. Data were collected regarding socio demographic variables and factors
correlated with anaemia. The result of p-value was <0.05, which indicated that level of
significance was fixed.
B Sudhagandhi, Sivapatham Sundaresan, W Ebenezer William, A Prema was
conducted study on prevalence of anaemia in the school children. The study was start from
September 2019 to end with February 2020. The major purpose of this study was identified the
prevalence of anaemia among school children and its correlation with demographic variables
like age, gender and body mass index. The study was conducted at government schools of
kattangulathur, tamilnadu, India. Total 900 samples are taken from government school in age
group between 8-16 years. Thus, study findings conclude that prevalence of anaemia among
overall children with age group between 8-16 years was 52.88% or (476/900).
2. ROL related to Factors and symptoms to iron deficiency Anaemia
A descriptive study conducted by Neena Gupta in 2018 on symptoms of anaemia at
Jabalpur.The study revealed that majority 36(42.9%) girls had history of shortness of breath on
exertion, 36 (42.9%) girls had complaint of easy fatigability, and 41(48.8%) girls had loss of
appetite. In a study on supplementation effect of iron and folic acid capsule on anemic
adolescent girls it was reported, that majority of subjects participated in the study complained
for lethargy (72.22%) and breathlessness on exertion (64.81 %) Problem of anorexia was faced
by about (35.18%) of the subjects.
An analytical study conducted by Asheri, H., Kianmehr in 2017 among Indian adolescent girls
In physical examination of adolescent girls with mild anaemia depicted that, majority of girls
48 (57.1%) girls had pale conjunctiva. Appearance of tongue was pale color for 34(40.5%)
girls. 14 (28.6%) girls had pale skin and pale 27 face. In a study on supplementation effect of
iron and folic acid capsule on anemic adolescent girls the symptoms of anaemia were observed
among all the subjects with wide range of variation. Paleness of eyes was in maximum number
of the subjects (62.96 %). However, the paleness of skin and flat nails was found in (66.66%)
and (33.33%) percent of subjects respectively.
A descriptive study conducted by Lloyd Van Winkle in 2009 to assess menstrual history of
anaemia among adolescent girls in Jhirli: Among 84 girls, 79(94%) girls had regular flow of
menstruation and 5(6%) girls had irregular menstrual flow, only 1(1.2%) girl had excess flow
of menstruation her haemoglobin level was 10.2 gm/dl. Among girls, however, menstruation
increases the risk for iron deficiency anaemia throughout their adolescent and childbearing
years. An important risk factor for iron deficiency anaemia is heavier menstrual bleeding

3. ROL relatedto effectivenessofnatural therapy to increase haemoglobin
level
Resmi.S, Fathima Latheef, R.Vijayaraghavan were conducted study on effectiveness of herbal
extract in enhancing the level of Hb among adolescent girls with iron deficiency anemia. . The
main aim was assessing the effectiveness of herbal extract in increasing the level of Hb of
adolescent girls with iron deficiency anaemia. True experimental research design was adopted
for this study. Study was conducted at gangothri international public school, Bangalore district
with 20 adolescent girl’s age group between 14-17 years who are having iron deficiency
anaemia. The herbal extract was given for a time of 1 month. The data tool was include
structured interview, check list questions and sahli's method for assessing the diagnostic
findings and blood test for assessing the Hb level. Pre-test was done before giving the
intervention and post-test was done at the end of one month. The findings includes mean score
was 9.7 and standard error was 1.218 in pre-test and post-test mean score was 11.03 and
standard error was 1.685. The ''t'' value was 2.9759 and df = 18, the mean difference values of
pre-test and post-test was significant at p<0.05 level. Study findings shows that herbal mixture
was effective in increasing the level of Hb.
Mrs L. Aslin Johnsi, was conducted study on effectiveness of Alma juice on haemoglobin
level among young adult female with anaemia. The study purpose was to evaluate the
effectiveness of Alma juice on haemoglobin level among young adult females. One group pre-
test-post-test design was adopted with total 60 samples were selected by purposive sampling
technique at sree mookambika college of nursing, kulasekharam. The data tool includes digital

Amla juice was given for period of 1 month. The study it proves that the level of Hb was
improved after providing the amla juice with ''t'' value was 19.33, df was 59 and ''p < 0.05''. S.
Resmi, Fathima Latheef and Vijayaraghavan was conducted an experimental study on
effectiveness of amla, jaggery and pumpkin leaves extract on the level of haemoglobin, vitamin
c and iron among adolescent girls with iron deficiency anaemia. The study purpose was to find
the effectiveness of amla, jageery and pumpkin leaves mixture on level of haemoglobin,
vitamin C and iron among adolescent girls with iron deficiency anaemia. Total consisting of
120 samples, adolescent girl’s age group between 14-17 years selected by using the simple
random technique. 60 samples in experimental group were taken from gangothri public School
and 60 samples in control group were taken from srigandhadakaval public School. Study shows
that there was significant difference in the pre-test and post-test level of Hb, vitamin C and iron
in the experimental group. Increasing of mean value in Hb from 9.942 to 10.99, vitamin C from
4.302 to 5.63 and iron from 77.6 to 99.58 in experimental group.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK BASED ON GENERAL SYSTEM THEORY
10. 10
GENERAL SYSTEM THEORY All the living system is open in which there is continuous
exchange of matter, energy and information. The system returns output to the environment
responses of system. It may be positive or negative.
The system component includes:
1. Input
2. Throughput
3. Output
1.INPUT
A system input is defined as the movement of information or matter energy from the
environment to the system. Input is the information needed by the system given to understand
to assess the level of haemoglobin according to WHO classification of anaemia as per hb level
by the use of haemocumeter 301 analyzer and observation checklist among young adolescent
girls in selected schools of Vadodara district.
2. THROUGHPUT
When there is transformation of input or output by the system is usually called throughput.
Throughput consider as intervention cum result process in general, in present study hb level
will be assessed on the very first day before introducing intervention. Then the intervention,
the nutrition ball will be given for one month Post-test hb level will be measured on the day of
7th, 15th and 30th day from pre-test.
3. OUTPUT
A system output is the movement of information or matter energy from the system to
environment. The information continuously processed through the system and released as
output in the study. The concept of outcome refers to the improve the level of haemoglobin
level in young adolescent girls.
