“…In response, many professionals are developing technologies that help promote breastfeeding. Among the most utilized technologies are video and film (4,5) , particularly when targeting mothers of young children (4,(6)(7) . This increased utilization of technology has likewise motivated nurses to develop strategies and technologies that will encourage mothers to exclusively breastfeed for a longer period of time.…”

Objective: To validate a fl ipchart with respect to self-effi cacy in breastfeeding, regarding its content and appearance. Methods: Based on the translated version of the Breastfeeding Self-Effi cacy Scale -Short Form, seven illustrations and their respective fl ipcharts were prepared. Face validity (clarity / understanding) and content validity (relevance) were performed based on the evaluation of ten judges. Results: The judges considered the methods were successful in relation to clarity / understanding. The Content Validity Index was 0.92 as to the fi gures, and 0.97 as to the script, characterizing the fl ipchart as a valid strategy. Conclusions: The fl ipchart can be used in various areas where nursing is practiced, including shared patient rooms. Descriptors: Teaching materials; Breastfeeding; Validation studies; Rooming-in care RESUMOObjetivo: Validar um álbum seriado a respeito da autoefi cácia em aleitamento materno quanto ao conteúdo e à aparência. Métodos: Com base na versão traduzida da Breastfeeding Self-Effi cacy Scale -Short Form foram elaboradas sete ilustrações e suas respectivas fi chas-roteiro. Realizou-se a validade aparente (clareza/compreensão) e a validade de conteúdo (relevância) com base na avaliação de dez juízes. Resultados: As considerações dos juízes foram acatadas em relação à clareza/compreensão. O Índice de Validade de Conteúdo foi 0,92 quanto às fi guras e 0,97, quanto às fi chas-roteiro, caracterizando o álbum seriado como uma estratégia válida. Conclusões: O álbum seriado pode ser utilizado nos diversos campos de atuação da enfermagem, inclusive no alojamento conjunto.

“…17 Three additional tools were excluded because their use is limited to specific diagnoses: the Feeding Checklist 18 (infants with non-organic failure to thrive), the Infant Malnutrition and Feeding Checklist for Congenital Heart Disease 19 (infants with congenital heart disease), and the Nutrition and Feeding Risk Identification Tool 20 (infants in early intervention). Finally, the Mother-Infant Feeding Tool 21 was excluded because it assesses mother-infant interaction in the context of feeding, but is not a feeding assessment; it is also an observational coding system intended for research purposes only. The final sample included 11 assessment tools (Table 1).…”

Background Feeding difficulty is common in infants less than six months old. Identification of infants in need of specialized treatment is critical to ensure appropriate nutrition and feeding skill development. Valid and reliable assessment tools help clinicians objectively evaluate feeding. Purpose To identify and evaluate assessment tools available for clinical assessment of bottle- and breast-feeding in infants less than six months old. Methods/Search Strategy CINAHL, HaPI, PubMed, and Web of Science were searched for “infant feeding” and “assessment tool.” The literature (n=237) was reviewed for relevant assessment tools. A secondary search was conducted in CINAHL and PubMed for additional literature on identified tools. Findings/Results Eighteen assessment tools met inclusion criteria. Of these, seven were excluded because of limited available literature or because they were intended for use with a specific diagnosis or in research only. There are 11 assessment tools available for clinical practice. Only two of these were intended for bottle-feeding. All 11 indicated they were appropriate for use with breast-feeding. None of the available tools have adequate psychometric development and testing. Implications for Practice All of the tools should be used with caution. The Early Feeding Skills Assessment and Bristol Breastfeeding Assessment Tool had the most supportive psychometric development and testing. Implications for Research Feeding assessment tools need to be developed and tested to guide optimal clinical care of infants from birth through six months. A tool that assesses both bottle- and breast-feeding would allow for consistent assessment across feeding methods.

“…A premature infant without significant medical issues should have the oral motor abilities needed to nipple all feedings and establish a pattern of adequate weight gain by 37 to 38 weeks' postconceptual age. 11 Brown et al 12 developed a feeding tool, using the concepts of Als's synactive theory, to explore maternal and infant factors and characteristics of the feeding experience that contributed to infant engagement during bottle feeding. Recognizing that early feeding interactions may strengthen adaptive feeding behaviors or reinforce maladaptive feeding behaviors in both the mother and infant, the authors evaluated 43 motherpremature infant dyads to describe realtime behavior of a mother and her infant in relation to each other during a feeding.…”

“…14 Concepts from several tools may be incorporated into the health care provider's informal observations of the parent-infant feeding experience to aid in recognition of issues and opportunities for intervention. In addition to the motherinfant feeding tool discussed earlier by Brown et al, 12 Barnard's NCAST Feeding Scale 15 and the Newborn Behavioral Observation program 16 provide concepts to observe and teach parents about the capacities, temperament, and feeding skills of their infant ( Table 1).…”

Growth and development are key factors in the care of a late preterm (near-term) infant and substantially affect the future health of the infant and family. At times, the infant born between 34 and 37 weeks' gestational age may be followed by a primary care provider or registered dietitian or evaluated in an acute care setting for inadequate weight gain and poor growth. While illness and endocrine, metabolic, gastrointestinal, and other physiological causes of poor growth are evaluated, attention should also be focused on other issues related to inadequate caloric intake and growth. Signs of limited feeding skills due to neurobehavioral immaturity and parental feeding style may play a role in the evaluation and interventions to ensure adequate intake and growth. This case presentation reviews a late preterm infant with poor weight gain who is followed closely with monitoring and observation of feeding patterns, family education, and support until an adequate growth pattern is established.
