摘要

Results of MDGS in 2015 declares that maternal mortality rate (MMR) in Indonesia still at 305/100.000 live births level, which still far away from the target of 105/100.000 live births. Maternal morbidity and mortality rates are more risky at those with low social, cultural, political, and economic status, especially at the remote indigenous community and is having low accessibility to health, for example, the Suku Anak Dalam (SAD). The aim of this study is to determine the correlation gender development index (GDI) to women of childbearing age couples (PUS) morbidity in remote indigenous community of Suku Anak Dalam (SAD) at Sungai Terap Area and Nyogan of Jambi Province. This study was a quantitative study with observational study design by using a cross sectional approach which conducted in March until July. Samples were chosen with total population technique which means all remote indigenous community (RIC) that were in the field at the data collection time who fulfill the inclusion criteria were chosen as samples. Data were taken primarily and secondarily, then were analyzed by univariate and bivariate analysis. Prevalence of morbidity rates were 67,2%, and there was a correlation between knowledge level with women of childbearing age couples morbidity (p value = 0,012; 95% CI= 0,022-0,672, OR= 0,122)). There was no correlation between, age, education record and family outcome. It is necessary to optimize the empowerment program in order to improve the community knowledge related to disease prevention efforts, so that the maternal morbidity and mortality in remote indigenous community of Suku Anak Dalam (SAD) at Sungai Terap Area and Nyogan of Jambi Province can be reduced.
