简要总结
Feeding the infant with breast milk in neonatal intensive care units is essential. However, breastfeeding can be adversely affected in this complex environment, especially for immigrant mothers. In order to ensure the success of breastfeeding in the neonatal intensive care unit, education and support of the mother are required. While doing this, structured and planned education programs should be implemented taking into account the individual characteristics of the mother (culture, age, etc.).This study aimed to evaluate the effect of education given to immigrant mothers on breastfeeding success of mothers. The study was a randomized controlled, single-blind clinical trial.
详细描述
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of education given to immigrant mothers on breastfeeding success of mothers.
Method: In this randomized-controlled, single-blind study, 80 immigrant mothers (40 intervention groups, 40 control groups) were recruited.
The study included primiparous immigrant mothers whose mother tongue was not Turkish, whose baby was hospitalized for the first time in the NICU, whose baby was born at 34-40 weeks of gestation, whose baby was fed orally, and whose suckling was not impaired.
In the study, 40 participants were included in the experimental group and 40 participants in the control group. At the end of the study, Cohen's d was calculated to determine the effect size and was found to be 1.80.
A simple randomization method was used to randomly assign the mothers included in the study to the experimental and control groups. To avoid bias in the study, a nurse who was not involved in the study made the LATCH scoring and evaluation of the suckling time and feeding style of the infants, without knowing which group the mothers were in. In addition, mothers to be included in the experimental and control groups were determined by a simple randomization method to prevent selection bias in the study.

结局指标
主要结局
LATCH score
时间窗: 3 days
LATCH was used to evaluate breastfeeding success. Each item is evaluated between 0-2 points. The total score that can be obtained from the vehicle is 10, and a high score means high breastfeeding success. Evaluation is done through observation.
sucking time of babies
时间窗: 3 days
To evaluate the suckling time of babies, sucking time was measured with a stopwatch at each feeding.
feeding type of babies
时间窗: 3 days
Information about the feeding style of infants was obtained from the nurse observation form. The characteristics for the type of nutrition are; breastfeeding only, spoon feeding only, spoon feeding and breastfeeding together.
