Postpartum breast complications and breast-feeding practices in a baby-friendly hospital in Bangladesh

Background: Breastfeeding is essential for health of both infants and mothers, but it often encounters challenges such as postpartum breast complications. These issues can adversely affect maternal health and significantly hinder success of breastfeeding practices. Aim of study was to assess postpartum breast complications and breast-feeding practices.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in department of obstetrics and gynaecology, Dhaka medical college hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh from February 2006 to July 2006. Two hundred patients in the postnatal ward who delivered their babies at DMCH were randomly selected.Result: Among 200 postnatal women, 33.5% experienced breast problems. Women with breast problems were designated as group A and women without breast problems were designated as group B. Most women in groups A and B were aged between 21-30 years with average 24.8 years for both groups. Antenatal check-ups were similar across groups, with breastfeeding advice given to 55.2% in group A and 64.7% in group B pre-lacteal feeds were given to 19.4% of group A and 21.8% of group B neonates, while colostrum was fed to the majority. Most neonates were breastfed within 2 hours. Good breastfeeding position and attachment were observed in most cases. Exclusive breastfeeding was more common in group B (73.7%) than in group A (58.2%). Breast problems in group A included engorgement, lactation insufficiency, and nipple issues.Conclusions: The study reveals that postpartum breast complications, notably breast engorgement and lactation insufficiency, significantly affects the breastfeeding effectiveness of new mothers.

Exclusive breastfeeding practices and predictors among mothers attending child care immunization services in Ebonyi state, Nigeria

Background: Low adoption of exclusive breast feeding among mothers and its impact on the infants has been attributed to several factors. The im of the study was to assess exclusive breastfeeding practices and predictors among women attending child care immunization services at Alex Ekwueme Federal University Teaching Hospital Abakaliki (AE-FUTHA). Methods: The design of this study is cross-sectional survey. The population of the study comprised of 2100 women who registered for child care immunization services at Federal Teaching Hospital Abakaliki from the month of January-March, 2023. Convenience sampling technique was used in selecting the participants. Data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, frequency counts and percentages and t test statistics. Results: The results showed that the exclusive breastfeeding practices of the women were high (3.33±0.39). Also, EBP of the women was high based on age and parity. Although, there was no significant difference in the exclusive breastfeeding practices based on parity (p>0.05). However, there was significant difference in the exclusive breastfeeding practices based on age of the mothers (p<0.05). Conclusions: The study concluded that to sustain the high practices of exclusive breastfeeding among women attending child care immunization services at AE-FUTHA, there is need to continue to engage them on seminars, workshops and conferences by health workers on the days of immunization with special focus to the younger age of the mothers in order to sustain the high EBPs.

The breastfeeding support practices, related barriers and facilitators in the neonatal intensive care unit, Uttarakhand, India

Background: Within the bustling and stressful neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) environment, implementing Baby-friendly practices presents numerous challenges. Breastfeeding initiation and duration rates among NICU infants are lower compared to healthy full-term infants. Objectives were to explore breastfeeding support practices and related barriers and facilitators in the NICU.Methods: A retrospective study of 496 babies admitted to NICU of Sahota Superspeciality Hospital Kashipur, Uttarakhand during the time period March 2018 to February 2020 and examined maternal and infant factors. The 496 infants divided in two groups: group A: breast milk use at discharge (n=398) and group B: no breast milk use at discharge (n=98).Results: The incidence of morbidity factors like sepsis, chronic lung disease, retinopathy of prematurity, intraventricular hemorrhage, gastrostomy tube feeds at discharge, gavage feeds at discharge noted more among the babies of group of ‘no breast milk use at discharge’ compared to other group (p<0.05). The usage of donor milk and formula milk is significantly very less in babies of group ‘breast milk use at discharge’ compared to other group (p<0.05). Duration of hospital stay was very less in the group A compare to group B (p<0.05). Respiratory distress was the most common diagnosis among the babies of group A and apnea was the most common among babies of group B.Conclusions: Obstacles to maintaining breastfeeding in the NICU, which warrant focused efforts for enhancing practices, encompassed inadequate resources for facilitating parental involvement, impediments to expressing and providing maternal breast milk, and a notable prevalence of bottle-feeding supplemented with formula.

Maternal understanding and practices of breastfeeding and infant feeding in rural North Karnataka: a cross sectional study

Background: Child-malnutrition is a critical global concern supported by substantial evidence. Recognizing optimal infant and young child-feeding practices as pivotal in combating malnutrition is crucial. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted through house-to-house survey in Ukkali and Shivanagi villages for period of 6 months from February 2018 to July 2018. A pretested-questionnaire was administered to 133mothers of 6 to 12-month-old children, collecting socio-demographic data, knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding prelacteal, breastfeeding, and complementary-feeding. Results: Knowledge gaps emerged, with only 50% understanding colostrum's importance. Limited awareness of exclusive breastfeeding (65%) and extended breastfeeding (31.57%) was observed. Prelacteal-feeding was widespread (52.63%), with sugar-water being a prevalent choice (21.8%). Most mothers (over 90%) opted for breastfeeding, yet timely initiation (27.6%) and exclusive-breastfeeding (30%) were suboptimal. Complementary-feeding initiation (15%) and minimum-meal-frequency adherence (13.3%) were low. Meal-diversity was deficient in over 60%. Conclusions: Bridging knowledge gaps and promoting optimal-feeding-practices through targeted nutritional education is essential. This study underscores the importance of addressing misconceptions, enhancing early-breastfeeding, and ensuring proper complementary-feeding to improve child-health outcomes. Socio-demographic-factors must be considered when designing educational material and interventions in rural-settings.

Effects of high-efficiency centering pregnancy care combined with information-knowledge-attitude-practice health education on cesarean delivery on maternal request rate, maternal and neonatal health status and breastfeeding in primiparas / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective:To explore the effects of high-efficiency centering pregnancy care (CPC) combined with information-knowledge-attitude-practice (IKAP) health education on cesarean delivery on maternal request (CDMR) rate, maternal and neonatal health status so as to provide referential significance for reducing CDMR rate and improving postpartum maternal and neonatal health status and breastfeeding rate.Methods:In the prospective, single-center and controlled study, a total of 82 primiparas undergoing antenatal examination and delivery in South Binhu Hospital of Hefei First People′s Hospital were enrolled as the research objects between January 2020 and December 2021 by convenience sampling method, including 41 cases given routine health care in routine group between January and December 2020 and 41 cases given high-efficiency CPC combined with IKAP health education on basis of routine group in combination group between January and December 2021. The cognition of cesarean section, delivery modes, incidence of postpartum complications, neonatal complications and breastfeeding between the two groups were compared.Results:The age of the routine group was (26.71 ± 2.18) years old, and the age of the combination group was (27.16 ± 1.79) years old. The proportions of correct cognition, partially correct cognition and incorrect cognition to cesarean section in combination group were 73.17% (30/41), 21.95% (9/41), 4.88% (2/41), and 53.66% (22/41), 26.83% (11/41), 19.51% (8/41) in routine group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( Z = 4.22, P<0.05). The incidence of cesarean section and CDMR in combination group was 24.39% (10/41) and 1/10, lower than that in routine group [46.34% (19/41), 10/19], and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.32, P<0.05; Fisher′s exact test, P = 0.049 ). The total incidence rates of postpartum complications of primiparas and neonatal complications in the combination group were 4.88%(2/41) and 7.32%(3/41), lower than 12.20%(5/41) and 12.20%(5/41) in the routine group, and the differences between the two groups were not statistically significant (Fisher′s exact test, P = 0.432, 0.712). The scores of functional health literacy, communicative health literacy and critical health literacy in combination group were (85.73 ± 4.09), (51.93 ± 4.72) and (58.63 ± 4.32) points, higher than those in routine group [(80.17 ± 5.26), (46.37 ± 5.11) , (52.71 ± 5.07) points], and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t = 5.34, 5.12, 5.69, all P<0.01). At 3 months after delivery, exclusive breastfeeding rate, milk powder feeding rate and mixed feeding rate in combination group were 58.54% (24/41), 7.32%(3/41), 34.15(14/41), higher than 26.83% (11/41), 29.27(12/41), 43.90%(18/41) in routine group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 10.73, P<0.05). Conclusions:High-efficiency CPC combined with IKAP health education can reduce incidence of CDMR, decrease maternal and neonatal complications, enhance maternal postpartum health literacy and improve breastfeeding rate in primiparas by improving correct cognition to cesarean section. It is worthy of clinical application.

A total of 407 prescription drugs for pregnant and breast-feeding women were contraindicated, accounting for approximately 15% of the 2,627 nonproprietary names. The number of contraindicated drugs for pregnant, breast-feeding, and both pregnant and breast-feeding women were 406, 44, and 43, respectively. The majority of the contraindications were based on nonclinical data, such as teratogenicity and fetotoxicity data in reproductive toxicity studies involving pregnant animals and pharmacokinetic information in breast-feeding animals. The overall revision rate for the new instructions was 16.2% after three years of revision work for each drug. The alert wording has been revised to provide more clarity and consistency, with three categories of statements: “should not be administered/avoid breastfeeding,” “advisable not to administer/breastfeed,” and “should be administered/breastfeed in consideration of the therapeutic benefit (benefit-risk consideration).” The statement indicating that the drug should not be administered to pregnant women remained in the revised instructions. Conversely, the revision of the description for breast-feeding women from “should be discontinued/avoided” to “benefit-risk consideration” may have improved the usefulness of the product, allowing healthcare professionals to make more informed decisions after considering the transfer of the drug into milk, its pharmacological effects, and other factors.

Caracterização de parâmetros para análise de medidas objetivas da sucção não-nutritiva de recém-nascidos / Characterization of parameters for the analysis of objective measures of non-nutritive sucking of newborns

RESUMO Objetivo Propor uma metodologia de análise dos dados gerados por um instrumento de medição da pressão de sucção não-nutritiva do recém-nascido. Método Estudo observacional analítico, transversal com dados de 24 recém-nascidos a termo sem comprometimentos. Após a avaliação clínica foram analisadas três coletas de cada neonato empregando-se o referido instrumento, com duração de 2 minutos e intervalo de 2 minutos entre elas. Os parâmetros definidos foram extraídos por meio de um programa desenvolvido em Matlab®. Os resultados foram obtidos pela análise e comparação de 12 variáveis ao nível de confiança de 5%. Foi realizada ainda comparação das análises manual e computadorizada por meio do coeficiente de correlação intraclasse. Resultados A comparação múltipla entre os três momentos de coleta, mostrou que as diferenças estatísticas significantes ocorreram entre as coletas um e dois e dois e três. Ao se analisar e comparar cada variável separadamente, notou-se que a segunda coleta apresentou: maior número de grupos de sucção, maior número de sucções, menor tempo para iniciar os grupos de sucção, maior tempo de grupos de sucção, menor número de sucções esporádicas, valores de pressão média maiores e com menor desvio padrão, maior número de pausas com tempo de pausas menor. O coeficiente de correlação intraclasse revelou concordância quase perfeita para os 12 parâmetros avaliados. Conclusão As 12 variáveis analisadas mostram-se relevantes, especialmente na segunda coleta. O programa em Matlab® mostrou-se viável e eficaz na extração e análise dos parâmetros, apresentando alta concordância quando comparado à avaliação manual.

ABSTRACT Purpose To propose a methodology for analyzing data generated by an instrument measuring non-nutritive sucking pressure in newborns. Methods An analytical observational study was developed, with a cross-sectional design, considering the data collected from 24 full-term newborns without complications. Three collections from each neonate were analyzed, with duration of 2 minutes and a 2-minute interval between them. The defined parameters were extracted using a program developed in Matlab®. The results were obtained by analyzing and comparing 12 variables at a 5% confidence level. Comparison of manual and computerized analyzes was also carried out using the intraclass correlation coefficient. Results The multiple comparison between the three collection moments showed that the significant statistical differences occurred between collections one and two and two and three. When analyzing and comparing each variable separately, it was noted that the second collection showed: greater number of sucking groups, greater number of suctions, less time to start the sucking groups, longer time of sucking groups, less number of sporadic suctions, higher mean pressure values and with less standard deviation, more number of pauses with shorter time of pauses. The intraclass correlation coefficient revealed almost perfect agreement for the 12 evaluated parameters. Conclusion The 12 variables analyzed are relevant, especially in the second collection. The Matlab® program proved to be viable and effective in extracting and analyzing parameters, showing high agreement when compared to manual evaluation.

Breastfeeding at discharge and in the third stage of the Kangaroo Mother Care among hospitalized preterm infants / Lactancia materna al alta y en la tercera etapa del Método Madre Canguro en recién nacidos prematuros hospitalizados / Aleitamento materno na alta e na terceira etapa do Método Canguru entre recém-nascidos prematuros hospitalizados

ABSTRACT Objective: To identify the type of feeding and analyze the sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding at hospital discharge, in the first and in the last follow-up visit of the third stage of the Kangaroo Mother Care among infants admitted to the kangaroo unit. Method: Longitudinal and retrospective study. A total of 186 infants of gestational age <37 weeks admitted to the kangaroo unit in 2018 and 2019 was included. Data collected from medical records and subjected to inferential analysis and the Poisson regression model (P < 0.05). Results: Exclusive breastfeeding rate was 73.1% at discharge, with a drop at the last follow-up visit (68.1%). At discharge, there was a greater probability of exclusive breastfeeding in younger mothers, with higher education, infants born with higher birth weight and who received exclusive human milk during hospitalization; in the first follow-up visit, in a younger mother and infant who received only human milk during hospitalization; and in the last follow-up visit, a young mother, infant who received only human milk and suckled at the breast for the first time in the kangaroo unit. Conclusion: Most infants hospitalized in the second stage of the Kangaroo Mother Care were exclusively breastfed and presented maternal and clinical factors related to breastfeeding. This fact can help manage the challenges of the method and promote breastfeeding.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Identificar el tipo de alimentación y analizar los factores sociodemográficos y clínicos asociados a la lactancia materna exclusiva al alta hospitalaria, en el primero y en la última visita de seguimiento de la tercera etapa del Método Madre Canguro entre los recién nacidos ingresados en la unidad canguro. Método: Estudio longitudinal y retrospectivo. Se incluyeron 186 neonatos en edad gestacional <37 semanas ingresados en la unidad canguro en 2018 y 2019. Datos recopilados de historias clínicas sometidas a análisis inferencial y modelo de regresión de Poisson (p < 0,05). Resultados: La tasa de lactancia materna exclusiva fue del 73,1% al alta, con descenso en la última visita de seguimiento (68,1%).

Third stage of the kangaroo method: exclusive breastfeeding and growth of preterm and/or low birth weight newborns / Terceira etapa do método canguru: aleitamento materno exclusivo e crescimento de recém-nascidos pré-termo e/ou de baixo peso ao nascer

Objective: To evaluate the rates of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) and growth of preterm and/or low birth weight newborns during the third stage of the Kangaroo Method (TSKM), at discharge. Methods: Retrospective study in a reference public maternity hospital between Jan/2014 and Dec/2017, including the preterm (less than 37 weeks) and/or low birth weight (less than 2500 g) newborn infants. Information was collected from medical records. Statistics analysis was done in SPSS software. Results: 482 infants were included and followed up at the TSKM ambulatory. The average gestational age was 33 weeks (variation: 24-39 weeks) and birth weight, 1715g (variation: 455-2830 g). EBF occurred in 336 (70.1%) infants at hospital discharge, and in 291 (60.4%) at TSKM discharge. Each additional day of hospital stay increased the chance of infant formula (IF) use by 9.3% at hospital discharge and by 10.3% at TSKM discharge. Staying in the Kangaroo Neonatal Intermediate Care Unit (KNICU) favored EBF at hospital discharge and TSKM discharge (p<0.001). Not performing the kangaroo position increased the chance formula administration to the newborn infant at hospital discharge by 11%. Weight gain and head circumference growth were higher in infants using formula (p<0.001). Conclusions: The length of hospital stay and not performing the kangaroo position favored the use of infant formula at hospital and TSKM discharge. Staying in the KNICU favored exclusive breastfeeding at hospital and TSKM discharge. Weight gain and HC growth were higher in newborns receiving infant formula.

RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar as taxas de aleitamento materno exclusivo e o crescimento dos recém-nascidos (RN) pré-termo e/ou de baixo peso ao nascer à alta da terceira etapa do Método Canguru (TEMC). Métodos: Estudo retrospectivo realizado em maternidade pública de referência entre janeiro/2014 e dezembro/2017, que incluiu os RN pré-termo (<37 semanas) e/ou de baixo peso (<2.500 g). As informações foram coletadas de prontuários médicos e analisadas pelo programa Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Resultados: Foram seguidos 482 RN, com mediana da idade gestacional de 33 semanas (variação: 24-39 sem) e peso ao nascer 1.715 g (variação: 455-2.830 g). O aleitamento materno exclusivo (AME) ocorreu em 336 (70,1%) RN à alta hospitalar e em 291 (60,4%) à alta da TEMC. Cada dia a mais de permanência hospitalar aumentou a chance do uso de fórmula infantil em 9,3% à alta hospitalar e em 10,3% à alta da TEMC. Permanecer na Unidade de Cuidados Intermediários Canguru (UCINCA) favoreceu o AME à alta hospitalar e da TEMC (p<0,001). Não realizar a Posição Canguru aumentou em 11% a chance de o RN utilizar fórmula infantil à alta hospitalar. O ganho de peso e crescimento do perímetro cefálico foram maiores nos RN em uso de fórmula infantil (p<0,001). Conclusões: O tempo de permanência hospitalar e a não realização da Posição Canguru favoreceram o uso de fórmula infantil à alta hospitalar e da TEMC. Permanecer na UCINCA favoreceu o AME à alta hospitalar e da TEMC. O ganho de peso e crescimento do PC foram maiores nos RN em uso de fórmula infantil.

Relações de poder vivenciadas por mulheres trabalhadoras que amamentam: uma teoria substantiva / Power relations experienced by working women who breastfeed: a substantive theory / Relaciones de poder vividas por mujeres trabajadoras que amamantan: una teoría sustantiva

Objetivo: construir uma teoria substantiva sobre as relações de poder vivenciadas por trabalhadoras que amamentam, que podem influenciar na decisão e manutenção do aleitamento materno no local de trabalho. Métodos: pesquisa exploratória-descritiva qualitativa, na qual se utilizaram os referenciais de Relações de Poder de Michel Foucault e a Teoria Fundamentada nos Dados, de Corbin e Strauss. Duas técnicas foram utilizadas para a coleta de dados nas empresas (Santa Catarina, Brasil): grupo focal e entrevista semiestruturada. Codificação aberta, axial e integração seletiva foram utilizadas para análise de dados, com auxílio do Software Atlas.ti, com processo de validação da teoria substantiva por sete avaliadores. Resultados: participaram dezesseis trabalhadoras e dois profissionais de saúde. A teoria substantiva gerada, "Amamentando com êxito no retorno ao trabalho em decorrência da existência de dispositivos de apoio", integra dez categorias, que representam o fenômeno central e seus três componentes: condições, ações-interações e consequências ou resultados. Conclusão: trabalhadoras vivenciam microrrelações singulares de poder no trabalho, que convergem e influenciam o poder de decisão de continuar amamentando. O desejo das trabalhadoras de amamentar, juntamente com o usufruto de direitos adquiridos e a disponibilidade de uma rede de apoio fazem com que elas perseverem no processo complexo de amamentação.

Objective: to construct a substantive theory about the power relations experienced by breastfeeding workers, which may influence the decision and maintenance of breastfeeding in the workplace. Methods: an exploratory-descriptive qualitative study, in which Michel Foucault's Power Relations and Corbin and Strauss' Grounded Theory were used as referential frameworks. Two techniques were used to collect data from social actors linked to their companies in Santa Catarina - Brazil: focus group and semi-structured interview. Open, axial coding and selective integration were used in data analysis with the aid of Atlas.ti Software and a validation process of the substantive theory by seven evaluators. Results: sixteen workers and two health professionals participated in the survey. The substantive theory generated was "Successful breastfeeding upon return to work due to the existence of support mechanisms". It integrates ten categories that represent the central phenomenon and its three components: conditions, actions-interactions, and consequences or results. Conclusion: workers experience unique micro-relations of power in the work context, which converge and influence the decision-making power regarding the continuation of breastfeeding. The workers' desire to breastfeed, together with the exercise of acquired rights and the availability of a support network, make them persevere in the complex process of breastfeeding.

En el análisis de los datos se utilizó codificación abierta, axial e integración selectiva con la ayuda del Software Atlas.ti y un proceso de validación de la teoría sustantiva por siete evaluadores. Resultados: participaron dieciséis trabajadoras y dos profesionales de la salud. La teoría sustantiva generada fue "Lactancia materna exitosa al regresar al trabajo debido a la existencia de mecanismos de apoyo". Integra diez categorías que representan el fenómeno central y sus tres componentes: condiciones, acciones-interacciones y consecuencias o resultados. Conclusión: las trabajadoras experimentan micro relaciones de poder únicas en el contexto del trabajo, que convergen e influyen en el poder de decisión sobre la continuidad de la lactancia materna. El deseo de las trabajadoras de amamantar unido al disfrute de los derechos adquiridos y la disponibilidad de una red de apoyo las hacen perseverar en el complejo proceso de la lactancia materna.

Exclusive breastfeeding and its association with pre- and postnatal factors: a cohort prospective study

Aim: This cohort study aimed to investigate the exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) prevalence and its association with maternal EBF intention and other variables. Method: Pregnant women (n=653) in the third trimester of pregnancy filled out a questionnaire on EBF intention using the Infant Feeding Intentions scale and other variables. After delivery, mothers were contacted by phone at the first (T1; n=467), third (T3; n=333), and sixth (T6; n=217) month of the baby's life or until breastfeeding was terminated, to collect data on breastfeeding, delivery, the newborn, oral habits, and family variables. The associations between independent variables and the outcomes (EBF prevalence at T1, T3, and T6) were analyzed by simple and multiple logistic regression models (α =0.05). Results: EBF prevalence was 81.2% at T1, 64.0% at T3, and 35.9% at T6. Nott use baby bottle (OR=612.59; OR=139.08; OR=15.05) and no pacifier use (OR=2.94; OR=2.78; OR=2.93) were associated with the outcome at T1, T3, and T6, respectively. Other associated variables were strong EBF intention (OR=1.71) at T1; higher birth weight (OR=1.62), childcare support (OR=2.59), maternal age (OR=0.54), being married or having a partner (OR=1.82) at T3; and not returning to work (OR=2.39) at T6. Conclusion: The EBF prevalence was high at the first month of the baby's life and decreased over six months. The EBF intention affected EBF initiation. Variables related to the mother´s demographic characteristics, the baby´s birth weight, the childcare support or the baby bottle/pacifier use were associated with EBF

Factors associated with the length of breastfeeding during the COVID-19 pandemic: a survival study / Factores asociados a la duración de la lactancia materna durante la pandemia de COVID-19: estudio de supervivencia / Fatores associados à duração do aleitamento materno durante a pandemia da COVID-19: estudo de sobrevida

ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the repercussions of COVID-19 on the length of breastfeeding and analyze the associated factors in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Method: This is an epidemiological, prospective cohort study. Data were collected from medical records and through telephone interviews. Women who weaned were estimated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The log-rank test was used to verify differences between groups, analyzing weaning time, according to sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. The values of hazard ratio and 95% confidence intervals were estimated using Cox regression analysis. Results: A total of 1,729 women participated in the study. During the COVID-19 pandemic, brown women and women undergoing cesarean section were more likely to stop breastfeeding. Conclusion: The birth route and mothers' ethnic characteristics were associated with early weaning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Such findings are important to guide the assistance of the multidisciplinary team, especially nursing, during the post-pandemic period and in future epidemiological scenarios.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Investigar las repercusiones de la COVID-19 en la duración de la lactancia materna y analizar los factores asociados en Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brasil. Método: Se trata de un estudio de cohorte prospectivo epidemiológico. Los datos se recogieron de historias clínicas y mediante entrevistas telefónicas. Las mujeres que destetaron se estimaron mediante el análisis de supervivencia de Kaplan-Meier. La prueba de Mantel-Cox se utilizó para verificar diferencias entre grupos, analizando el tiempo de destete, según características sociodemográficas y clínicas. Los valores de cociente de riesgo y los intervalos de confianza del 95% se estimaron mediante análisis de regresión de Cox. Resultados: Un total de 1.729 mujeres participaron en la investigación. Durante la pandemia de COVID-19, las mujeres pardas y aquellas sometidas a cesárea tenían más probabilidades de dejar de amamantar. Conclusión: La ruta de nacimiento y las características étnicas de las madres se asociaron con el destete temprano durante la pandemia de COVID-19. Tales hallazgos son importantes para orientar la asistencia del equipo multidisciplinario, especialmente de enfermería, durante el período pospandemia y en futuros escenarios epidemiológicos.

RESUMO Objetivo: Investigar as repercussões da COVID-19 na duração do aleitamento materno e analisar os fatores associados em Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brasil. Método: Trata-se de estudo epidemiológico, de coorte prospectiva. Os dados foram coletados em prontuários médicos e por meio de entrevistas telefônicas. As mulheres que apresentaram o desmame foram estimadas por meio da análise de sobrevivência de Kaplan-Meier. O teste log-rank foi utilizado para verificar diferenças entre os grupos, analisando-se o tempo de desmame, segundo as características sociodemográficas e clínicas. Os valores de hazard ratio e intervalos de confiança de 95% foram estimados utilizando-se análise de regressão de Cox. Resultados: Participaram da pesquisa 1.729 mulheres. Durante a pandemia de COVID-19, mulheres pardas e mulheres submetidas à cesariana foram mais suscetíveis a interromper a amamentação. Conclusão: A via de nascimento e as características étnicas das mães associaram-se ao desmame precoce durante a pandemia de COVID-19. Tais achados são importantes para nortear a assistência da equipe multiprofissional, sobretudo da enfermagem, durante o pós-pandemia e em cenários epidemiológicos futuros.

The effect of breastfeeding on reducing pain induced by pentavalent vaccine in infants: a randomized clinical trial / El efecto de la lactancia materna en la reducción del dolor inducido por la vacuna Pentavalente en lactantes: un ensayo clínico aleatorizado / Efeito da amamentação na redução da dor induzida pela vacina Pentavalente em lactentes: ensaio clínico randomizado

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the effect of breastfeeding on reducing Pentavalent vaccination pain in infants and to identify the necessary breastfeeding interval for antinociceptive action. Method: Open parallel randomized clinical trial. Ninety mother-infant dyads participated, distributed into intervention group 1 (n = 30), which breastfed five minutes before vaccination; intervention group 2 (n = 30), which breastfed five minutes before and during vaccination; and control group (n = 30), which did not breastfeed. The outcome variable was the pain level measured by the FLACC Scale. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive and inferential statistics, applying Fisher's Exact, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn's multiple comparison tests, with 0.05 significance level. Results: Pain induced by the Pentavalent vaccine was reduced in intervention groups 1 and 2 (mean pain of 6.06 versus 3.83, respectively) compared to the control group (mean of pain of 7.43), which was significant for intervention group 2 (p < 0.001), indicating that, to achieve lower levels of pain, breastfeeding should be carried out before and during vaccination. Conclusion: Longer breastfeeding, conducted five minutes before and during vaccination, reduces the pain induced by the Pentavalent vaccine. No vaccination risks were identified to outweigh the benefits. These results endorse that health professionals should encourage breastfeeding at least five minutes before and during vaccine injection for an antinociception effect.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Evaluar el efecto de la lactancia materna en la reducción del dolor durante la vacunación pentavalente en lactantes y determinar el intervalo óptimo de lactancia para obtener un efecto antinociceptivo. Método: Ensayo clínico aleatorizado, paralelo y abierto. Participaron noventa díadas madre-lactante, divididas en grupo de intervención 1 (n = 30), que amamantó cinco minutos antes de la vacunación; grupo de intervención 2 (n = 30), que amamantó cinco minutos antes y durante la vacunación; y grupo control (n = 30), que no amamantó. La variable de resultado fue el dolor, que se evaluó utilizando la Escala FLACC. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo e inferencial de los datos, aplicando las pruebas Exacta de Fisher, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Kruskal-Wallis y Dunn para comparaciones múltiples, con un nivel de significancia de 0,05. Resultados: El dolor inducido por la vacuna Pentavalente se redujo en los grupos de intervención 1 y 2 (dolor medio de 6,06 frente a 3,83, respectivamente) en comparación con el grupo control (dolor medio de 7,43). Esta reducción fue significativa en el grupo de intervención 2 (p < 0,001), lo que sugiere que la lactancia materna antes y durante la vacunación es más efectiva para disminuir el dolor. Conclusión: Amamantar durante cinco minutos antes y durante la vacunación pentavalente reduce el dolor inducido por la vacuna Pentavalente. No se identificaron riesgos que superen los beneficios de esta práctica. Estos hallazgos sugieren que los profesionales de la salud deben promover la lactancia materna al menos cinco minutos antes y durante la administración de vacunas inyectables para lograr un efecto antinociceptivo significativo.

RESUMO Objetivo: Analisar o efeito da amamentação na redução da dor induzida pela vacina Pentavalente em lactentes e identificar o intervalo de tempo da amamentação necessário para sua ação antinocicepção. Método: Ensaio clínico randomizado paralelo aberto. Participaram 90 binômios mãe-lactente, distribuídos em grupo intervenção 1 (n = 30), que realizou a amamentação cinco minutos antes da vacinação; grupo intervenção 2 (n = 30), realizou a amamentação cinco minutos antes e durante a vacinação; e grupo controle (n = 30), que não realizou a amamentação. A variável desfecho foi o nível de dor mensurado pela Escala FLACC. A análise dos dados foi realizada por meio de estatística descritiva e inferencial, com aplicação dos testes Exato de Fisher, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Kruskal-Wallis e de comparações múltiplas de Dunn, adotando nível de significância de 0,05. Resultados: A dor induzida pela vacina Pentavalente se reduziu nos grupos intervenção 1 e 2 (média de dor de 6,06 versus 3,83, respectivamente) em comparação ao grupo controle (média de dor de 7,43), o que foi significativo para o grupo intervenção 2 (p < 0,001), indicando que, para alcançar menores níveis de dor, a amamentação deve ocorrer antes e durante a vacinação. Conclusão: A amamentação mais prolongada, realizada cinco minutos antes e durante todo o processo de vacinação, reduz a dor induzida pela vacina Pentavalente. Em sua aplicação não foram identificados riscos capazes de superar os benefícios de tal prática. Esses resultados endossam a importância de os profissionais de saúde incentivarem essa prática no tempo mínimo de cinco minutos antes e durante a aplicação de vacinas injetáveis para obtenção do efeito antinocicepção.
