Abstract
Objective
This study aimed to clarify the impact of visualizing hemoglobin levels through continuous transcutaneous hemoglobin monitoring on iron intake among female university students.Methods
The study was conducted between December 2022 and February 2023 and involved 11 fourth-year female nursing students from Private University A. Transcutaneous hemoglobin levels were measured at baseline, as well as at 1 month and 2 months post-intervention. The Brief-Type Self-Administered Diet History Questionnaire (BDHQ) was administered at baseline and again at 2 months.Results
The mean transcutaneous hemoglobin levels (±standard deviation) were 12.8±1.1 g/dL at baseline, 12.5±1.0 g/dL at 1 month, and 13.0±1.0 g/dL at 2 months. A repeated-measures one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated no significant differences among the measurements. Participants whose transcutaneous hemoglobin levels were below the mean at baseline or at 1 month tended to exhibit an increase in subsequent measurements. The mean change (± standard deviation) from baseline to 2 months demonstrated an increase of 0.3±1.1 g/dL in transcutaneous hemoglobin levels. The change in iron intake was 0.10±1.05 mg/day, with no statistically significant difference observed. A one-way ANOVA revealed no significant differences between grade levels.Conclusion
For students with low transcutaneous hemoglobin levels, continuous monitoring across three time points-baseline, 1 month, and 2 months-may effectively enhance transcutaneous hemoglobin levels; however, no association with iron intake was identified.
