Abstrak

Background: Acute respiratory infection (ARI) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children under five, affecting respiratory function and long-term lung development. In Indonesia, ARI remains a significant public health concern, including in urban areas such as Kenali Asam Bawah Urban Village, Jambi City. Objective: This study aimed to provide an epidemiological overview of ARI among children under five based on child-related factors. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 180 children aged 6–59 months, selected using a two-stage proportional-to-size sampling method. Information was collected on age, sex, exclusive breastfeeding, vitamin A supplementation, birth weight, and nutritional status. Results: Overall, 35% of children experienced ARI. Of the participants, 41.7% were ≤2 years old and 58.3% were >2 years old. Boys accounted for 52.2% and girls 47.8%. Exclusive breastfeeding was reported in 53.3%, while 46.7% did not receive it. Most children (80.6%) had not received vitamin A supplementation. Regarding birth weight, 12.2% were low birth weight and 2.2% macrosomic. Nutritional status showed 76.7% normal, 11.1% underweight, 2.2% severely underweight, and 10% at risk of overweight. This study provides an epidemiological overview of ARI in children under five, emphasizing the relevance of age, sex, vitamin A supplementation, and nutritional status. Conclusion: In conclusion, strengthening nutritional interventions and child health program may effectively reduce ARI prevalence and improve respiratory health among children under five.
