Cara Pengukuran Berat Badan Menggunakan Dacin

Summary

This video provides a step-by-step guide for accurately measuring a baby's weight using a dacin (weighing scale). The process includes calibrating the scale, placing the baby in the weighing cloth, and checking the baby's previous weight record. The scale is adjusted to balance the weights, ensuring an accurate measurement. After recording the weight, the scale is reset, and the baby is carefully removed from the cloth. This method ensures precise and consistent tracking of a baby's growth.

Takeaways

• 😀 Start by calibrating the 'dacin' (weighing scale).
• 😀 Place the baby in the weighing sling for the measurement.
• 😀 Ask the health worker (kader) for the baby's weight from the previous month or check the weight in the baby’s weighing book.
• 😀 Pull the pendulum until the balance is even, ensuring both the top and bottom indicators align.
• 😀 Ensure the scale is balanced by checking the position of the pendulum through the hole.
• 😀 Once the scale is balanced, note the baby's current weight.
• 😀 Before removing the baby from the sling, return the pendulum to its initial position.
• 😀 Carefully lift the baby out of the weighing sling.
• 😀 Record the baby's weight after the measurement.
• 😀 After recording, make sure to reset the pendulum to the starting position.
• 😀 Scan the weight measurement for proper documentation of the baby's weight.

After placing the baby in the sarung, ask the kader (health worker) about the baby's weight from the previous month or check the weight in the previous month's weighing book.

What should you do after checking the previous weight?

Next, pull the pendulum to balance it, making sure the position is level when viewed through the hole.

How can you tell when the dacin is properly balanced?

The dacin is properly balanced when the position of the pendulum is level, with the lower and upper parts aligned.

What should be done after achieving balance with the dacin?

Once balanced, record the weight measurement.

What should you do before finishing the weighing process?

Before finishing, return the pendulum to its initial position.

What should be done after recording the weight?

After recording the weight, carefully lift the baby out of the sarung.

What should be done with the sarung after weighing the baby?

The sarung should be used for the next weighing process, ensuring the baby is properly positioned each time.

What is the role of the kader in the weighing process?
