Abstract

【Objective】 To analyse the nutrition and growth status of infants aged 6~24 months lived in rural area of Ningqiang after Wenchuan earthquake. 【Method】 Total 327 infants aged 6~24 months lived in fourty-five villages in eight towns of Ningqiang were investigated using the questionnaires, anthropometric and hemoglobin concentration measurements. 【Results】 The prevalence of anemia, stunting, underweight and wasting was 49.9%, 9.8%, 6.4%, 4.6%, respectively. The proportion of breast feeding was 89.9%, but only 7.1% infants got breast feeding within one hour after delivery. Cereal foods were timely added while soybean and aquatic products were much insufficient. 【Conclusions】 The results indicate that the nutrition and health status of infants aged 6~24 months old living in the disaster area is not ideal. The dietary structure is not appropriate. It is necessary to take effective nutrition intervention and to strengthen nutrition education in order to improve health status of these infants lived in disaster area.
