简要总结
This study evaluated whether breastfeeding education delivered using the teach-back method improves breastfeeding outcomes and mother-infant bonding among primiparous postpartum women. Early postpartum breastfeeding education is routinely provided in many hospitals; however, women may have difficulty remembering or applying the information after birth. Teach-back is a communication method where the patient is asked to explain the information back in their own words, allowing the educator to check understanding and clarify misconceptions.
In this randomized controlled trial, postpartum women who gave birth in a private hospital were assigned either to a teach-back breastfeeding education group or to a control group receiving standard breastfeeding education. Breastfeeding success, breastfeeding self-efficacy, and mother-infant bonding were assessed using validated measurement tools at postpartum 6 hours and again at postpartum 24 hours.
The findings of this study aim to support evidence-based postpartum breastfeeding education practices and improve early breastfeeding outcomes.

研究组 & 干预措施
Teach-Back Breastfeeding Education
Participants received standard postpartum breastfeeding education plus an additional teach-back session delivered one time at postpartum 3-4 hours. The session lasted approximately 30 minutes in total, including education and participant feedback. Content included key elements of effective breastfeeding (latch, audible swallowing, nipple type, breast/nipple comfort, and positioning/hold) and signs of successful breastfeeding.
干预措施: Teach-Back Breastfeeding Education (Behavioral)
Control: Standard Breastfeeding Education
Participants received standard postpartum breastfeeding education routinely provided by the hospital (lactation nurse-led), without a teach-back component.
