The percentage of babies with low birth weight in 2017 was 1.44%, where it was found 35 babies with birth weight <2500 grams 42 of 2,427 babies born. The goal is to provide nursing care for low birth weight (LBW) infants that focuses on kinesthetic tactile audio-visual stimulation for nutritional fulfillment. This method is carried out by nursing care to By Ny R for 5 consecutive days with tactile kinesthetic audio- visual stimulation interventions. Results By Mrs. R experienced a better condition than before, marked by an increase in the baby's weight, which increased the baby's weight now to 2120 grams. It was concluded that there was an effect of tactile kinesthetic audio-visual stimulation on the problem of nutritional fulfillment in LBW infants, this could be seen from the evaluation that had been carried out which showed significant changes in infants.
