Abtract: Intestinal worm infections are transmitted via soil (soil-transmitted helminth) is a global problem, especially in developing countries. The main worm infections caused by Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, and hookworm (necator americanus and Ancylostoma duodenale). Worm infections affect the digestion, absorption, and metabolism of food could result in loss of protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and large amounts of blood as well as lower mean hemoglobin concentration. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of helminth infection with hemoglobin levels of elementary school children GMIM Buha Manado. This research was an observational analytic cross-sectional approach. Sebjek study as many as 80 children. Results showed that children infected with worms very significant effect on levels of hemoglobin (p < 0.001). Children who are infected with worms had lower hemoglobin levels when compared with children who are not infected with the worm. Children who are infected with the worm hemoglobin level falls to 9.5 g/dl.
Keywords: elementary school children - a worm infection - hemoglobin.

Abstrak: Infeksi cacing usus yang ditularkan melalui tanah (soil transmitted helminth) merupakan masalah dunia terutama di negara sedang berkembang. Infeksi cacing utama disebabkan oleh ascaris lumbricoides, trichuris trichiura, dan cacing tambang (necator americanus dan ancylostoma duodenale). Infeksi cacing berpengaruh terhadap pencernaan, penyerapan, serta metabolisme makanan yang dapat berakibat hilangnya protein, karbohidrat, lemak, vitamin dan darah dalam jumlah besar serta menurunkan konsentrasi hemoglobin rerata. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan infeksi cacing dengan kadar hemoglobin anak sekolah dasar GMIM Buha Manado. Jenis penelitian adalah observasional analitik dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Sebjek penelitian sebanyak 80 anak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa anak-anak yang terinfeksi cacing berpengaruh sangat bermakna terhadap kadar hemoglobin (p < 0,001). Anak-anak yang terinfeksi cacing memiliki kadar hemoglobin lebih rendah bila dibandingkan dengan anak-anak yang tidak terinfeksi cacing. Anak-anak yang terinfeksi cacing kadar hemoglobinnya turun hingga mencapai 9,5 g/dl.
