“Srikandi Health”: Development of a progressive web apps based health information system as a solution for ease of monitoring and management of anemia

Anemia is one of the unresolved nutritional problems in Indonesia and needs information technology support to accelerate its handling. Indonesia had around 48.9% of pregnant women with anemia and around 84.6% of anemia in pregnant women occurred in the 15–24 year age group in 2018. Adolescent girls as prospective mothers are prone to iron nutritional anemia and will have an impact on cognitive function disorders, lowering the immune system and the risk of pregnancy complications, low birth weight, and high premature birth. Information technology support based on Web Apps is one of the solutions to facilitate education, monitoring, and management of anemia. The FAST (Framework for the Application of System Technology) method becomes a framework for this application of systems thinking. As a result, the development of an information system based on Progressive Web Apps is easy to use by health workers in providing consultation and monitoring services for anemia in adolescents in tackling anemia which has never been developed before. Teenagers can easily access anemia education media which consists of articles and videos so that adolescents gain knowledge about anemia and anemia prevention. The next suggestion can be to add the features of Srikandi Health that are needed based on the evaluation in the field.
