“…These observations confirm the use of the 5 variables: mat ernal age, previous breastfeeding experience, latching difficulty, breastfeeding interval, and number of bottles in the hospital to predict early breastfeeding cessation. 8,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16] PIH is also of significance, although variations in severity and management may influence cessation rates. Previous breast surgery and vacuum vaginal delivery, although significant in the original study, were not significant in the current study possibly because of insufficient cases of these conditions.…”

A previous study performed in a predominately suburban population developed a breastfeeding assessment score (BAS) that was designed to predict, prior to hospital discharge, those mothers who would discontinue breastfeeding within the first 10 days of age. The purpose of the present study was to assess the BAS in a more diverse population. Patients were solicited from 3 urban hospitals serving patients primarily supported by public funding. Results of the present study with 1182 mother-infant pairs confirmed that 5 variables scored on a 0-2 scale (maternal age, previous breastfeeding experience, latching difficulty, breastfeeding interval, number bottles) remained highly significant for predicting discontinuation of breastfeeding. The data also demonstrate that the BAS is inversely related to the risk of cessation of breastfeeding at 7 to 10 days of age. Those at an early risk of cessation of breastfeeding, identified by the BAS, may benefit from early identification and a lactation consultation.

“…Si bien existen condiciones médicas que exigen la suplementación transitoria tales como hipoglicemia neonatal, baja de peso extrema y procedimientos que imposibiliten temporalmente a la madre amamantar 13,23 , éstas son más bien infrecuentes. Por el contrario, las principales razones por las cuales se utilizan SLM u otros líquidos son angustia materna ante un niño demandante, difi cultades en el acoplamiento entre madre e hijo y formación de grietas, causas que también se ha encontrado en otros trabajos 5,[7][8][9]13,16,18,22,23 , siendo éstas en su mayoría manejables por el equipo de salud 14,18,24 . En este trabajo, la percepción de niño demandante y difi cultades en la técnica de amamantamiento explicaron más del 40% de las causas de suplementación, siendo mandatoria la guía, acompañamiento y prevención de este tipo de problemas por el equipo de salud 6,7,14,20,24,25 .…”

“…La lactancia materna exclusiva (LME) es la forma óptima de alimentación del lactante durante los primeros seis meses de vida, debido a los múltiples benefi cios que aporta al binomio madre-hijo [1][2][3][4][5][6] . Uno de los factores que aumenta la duración de la LME es su promoción activa por parte del personal de salud 7 ; no obstante, no es infrecuente la indicación de sustitutos de leche materna (SLM) u otros líquidos (e.g.…”

Healthy term newborn feeding choice at the Maternity Ward may determine exclusive breastfeeding (EB) duration. Objective: Determine prospectively if early introduction of breast milk substitutes (BMS) or other liquids in healthy term newborns is associated to a reduction of EB incidence at 1 month of age. Methods: Concurrent cohort study of 211 healthy term neonates born in Hospital Clínico Universidad Católica during October 2007-June 2007, 108 non-supplemented and 103 supplemented with milk formula or dextrose 5% during the time they stayed at the Maternity Ward. Crude and adjusted risk of EB cessation between both groups was estimated at 1 month of age. Results: One month after birth, 40/100 (40.0%) of supplemented newborns and 26/101 (25.7%) non-supplemented newborns were not receiving exclusive breastfeeding (crude RR = 1.55 (CI95% 1.03-2.34)). Adjusted by maternal characteristics (age, education, breastfeeding experience, education in breastfeeding, EB time projection and paternal support) and newborn characteristics (type of delivery and birthweight), EB cessation risk was 55% higher in supplemented neonates (adjusted RR = 1.55, CI95% 1.01-2.35). Conclusion: Early supplementation in healthy term newborns with BMS is associated to a higher risk of EB cessation at 1 month of age.

Hospitalization and continuity of breastfeeding in infants less than 6 months of age Objective: To assess the effect of hospitalization for acute morbidity on the continuity of breastfeeding. Patients and Method: Concurrent cohort study of infants under 6 month of age admitted to the Hospital Sótero del Río, with follow-up at 2 and 6 weeks post discharge. Results: 72 patients entered the study. At the time of admission, 91.7% of patients were receiving breastfeeding (BF); 19.4% of them was exclusive breastfeeding (BFe). At 2 weeks after discharge, BF and BFe was 86% and 29% (p = NS), respectively. At 6 weeks post discharge, BF and BFe was 80% (p = 0.021 compared to admission) and 33% (p = NS) respectively. In patients admitted to the pediatric unit, there was an increase in the BFe between the second and sixth week of follow up (29.7% and 40.5% respectively, p = 0.008). Conclusions: After discharge, there was a decrease in the prevalence of BF similar to that observed in the National Breast Feeding Survey. The hospitalization did not negatively affect the maintenance of breastfeeding, on the contrary, there was an increase in those receiving exclusive breastfeeding, which could be explained by the education on breast feeding that mothers received within the hospital.
