Anemia is a decrease in the mass of red blood cells or total hemoglobin (Hb) levels, with pregnant mothers having less than 11.0 g/dL. Several factors that cause anemia in pregnancy include parity, age, level of knowledge, economic status, educational level, and compliance with iron tablets. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of education using pocketbooks and booklets on knowledge about anemia in pregnant women.

The data were analyzed using Paired t-test and Linear Regression Test.

Results: The results of the study showed that the average difference in the Booklet and Pocket Book groups was 1.6 and a p value of 0.041 (<0.05) was also obtained.
