Download or read book Women, Infants, and Children Supplemental Food Program Development of Breast-feeding Education Program written by Buford Lee Nichols and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: A breastfeeding education program for mothers participating in the Supplementary Feeding Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) sought to increase both the number of mothers choosing to breastfeed and the number of mothers who would breastfeed exclusively for 3 or more months. The program focused on a method for supporting low-income women in maintaining lactation. The education program results indicated that current support protocols for breastfeeding women in the maternity service are inadequate and may be counterproductive to enhancing the decision to breastfeed. In this study, however, at 30-day follow-up, a significantly higher proportion of women who were provided breastfeeding education materials that were developed in the program were still breastfeeding compared to women who were not given such materials.

Book Synopsis Development, Implementation and Evaluation of an Education Program for Health Care Providers to Promote Breastfeeding by : Jennifer L. Archer
Download or read book Development, Implementation and Evaluation of an Education Program for Health Care Providers to Promote Breastfeeding written by Jennifer L. Archer and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breastfeeding rates in the Unifed States are falling short of the goals set by Healthy People 2010. The goal is that 50% of all babies will be breastfed until 6 months of age. The reason for the low breastfeeding rates may be linked to the health care provider providing insufficient breastfeeding education to women in th prenatal setting. This may be inherently linked to the lack ofeducationn of health care providers in breastfeeding promotion and support. A quasi-experimental study was performed in a prenatalclinicall setting that included 6 health care providers (NPs, nurses,and physicians). The health care providers were given an educational program regarding breastfeeding. The pre/post-test results showed an overall increase in knowledge by 16% after the educational program. This result suggests that educational programs regarding breastfeeding and its promotion are valuable in increasing health care provider knowledge base and awareness.

Book Synopsis Formative Research to Develop Breastfeeding Promotion Messages in Tijuana, Mexico by : Diana Bueno-Gutierrez
Download or read book Formative Research to Develop Breastfeeding Promotion Messages in Tijuana, Mexico written by Diana Bueno-Gutierrez and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breastfeeding is a unique behavior maintained over millions of years of evolution that has endless advantages for children, mothers and communities. In Mexico, breastfeeding rates are one of the lowest of Latin America with 14.4% of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) under six months. Most breastfeeding studies conducted in Mexico are based on the analysis of quantitative data from mothers. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the main obstacles to breastfeeding in low-income population in Tijuana, Mexico and to develop culturally appropriate messages to promote breastfeeding in low- income women from Tijuana, Mexico. We used qualitative methods to design messages based on a socio-ecological framework and social marketing principles. Our message development model had 4 phases: 1) Breastfeeding obstacles assessment: We selected four low-income communities with low accessibility to health care services in Tijuana to conduct focus groups and interviews with mothers, fathers and grandparents and interviews with key informants 2) Message content development: Messages were designed by a panel of public health professionals and lay women; 3) Message refining and tailoring: Message preferences for mothers were identified and segmentation of the target audience was conducted based on socio-demographic factors, perinatal factors and traditional or modern ideas; 4) Cognitive response testing for final messages. The present work includes five chapters. The first is a literature review that examines breastfeeding benefits, prevalence and situation in Mexican population, as well as how formative research using the socio-ecological framework can guide us to design culturally-sensitive breastfeeding promotion messages that can be used in community-based interventions. Second, third and fourth chapters discuss findings from the individual, group and social factors that influence breastfeeding practices in this population. The last chapter describes the model to design and pre-test breastfeeding promotion messages based on our previous formative research. A total of 169 participants were part of this study. We used the most relevant obstacles for mothers to develop 10 messages to promote breastfeeding in this population; 6 Individual: Enough milk, Pain, Aesthetics, Comfort, Baby behavior, Maintenance; 1 Group: Group Support (Family, Health Care Services, Worksite); and 3 Societal: Formula culture, Breastfeeding in Public and Cost. Obstacle ranking and message selection varied according to socio-demographic factors, perinatal experience and traditional or modern ideas. Migrant women recently arrived to Tijuana from the South ranked lack of breastfeeding support and culture as important obstacles to successful breastfeeding. Women with more traditional ideas, lower socio-economic status (SES) and education relied more on information from family members. Individual, group and societal factors interacted with each other. For example, individual factors such as perception of inadequate milk or comfort are influenced by group and societal factors such as the Western constructs that view the female body as weak, defective and untrustworthy; a culture with no exposure to breastfeeding and inadequate medical practices and insensitive health care providers. A comprehensive approach to breastfeeding recognizes that it is not merely an individual choice but that structural factors influence that choice, particularly for disadvantaged women. Awareness of the cultural, social and demographic influences on the population served provides a basis for the most appropriate advice to promote breastfeeding, based on the barriers faced. The 10 messages designed in this study can be used to develop educational material and create a social campaign to promote breastfeeding culture in this population. The messages and qualitative findings have direct applications for public programs that provide nutrition education to mothers in Mexico. Target audience for these messages should not be limited to mothers and also include family, health care providers, work environment and society as a whole.

Book excerpt: Support for breastfeeding has been a priority of the WIC program since its inception in the 1970s. The Loving Support Makes Breastfeeding Work campaign, which the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food and Nutrition Services launched in 1997, emphasizes key components needed for a breastfeeding mother to be successful. More than a decade after the campaign began, USDA wants to update it, taking into account changes in the WIC program, participants, and technology. On April 26, 2011, the IOM hosted a workshop to bring together experts to discuss what has changed since Loving Support began, lessons learned from other public health campaigns, and suggestions for where to take the campaign in the future.
Book Synopsis Developing a Culturally Grounded Breastfeeding Assessment for Low-income, African American Women by : Rebecca Reno
Download or read book Developing a Culturally Grounded Breastfeeding Assessment for Low-income, African American Women written by Rebecca Reno and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The benefits of breastfeeding for mothers and infants have been well established in the literature, as have pervasive racial disparities in breastfeeding initiation and duration. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends exclusive breastfeeding to 6 months of age, and Healthy People 2020 aims to have 60.6% of all infants exclusively breastfed to 6 months of age. A review of existing literature revealed a dearth of research focused specifically on the breastfeeding beliefs or behaviors of low-income, African American women. Reported studies are either atheoretical or utilize health behavior theories focusing on individual-level factors. Little attention has been paid to the unique sociocultural context within which this population is situated. Further, many existing breastfeeding interventions were not specifically designed for low-income African American women, and therefore may overlook their unique barriers to breastfeeding. Taken together, critical feminist theory and a social cultural model could provide a more comprehensive, culturally grounded framework from which to understand breastfeeding disparities, and to begin working to address them. Utilizing these two theories, a multi-phase, mixed methods research study was designed to identify breastfeeding barriers and supportive factors for low-income African American women, and to help empower them to meet their breastfeeding goals through the design and testing of a breastfeeding assessment process. Phase 1 utilized a community-based participatory action research methodology called group model building to answer the following research question: How do low-income, pregnant and postpartum African American women describe breastfeeding within their socio-cultural context, including factors that help or hinder breastfeeding? In Phase 2A, the set of statements that emerged from Phase 1 activities were evaluated by breastfeeding scholars and practitioners for inclusion in a set of Q-sort cards. These cards formed the foundation of a Dynamic Breastfeeding Assessment Process (D-BAP). In Phase 2B, the D-BAP was tested with a sample of lactation specialists and pregnant women to answer the research question: What would an assessment process look like if it were informed by the perspectives of the women as captured in the model building process? Finally, in Phase 3 the D-BAP underwent feasibility testing. Mixed methods were used to answer two research questions: 3A. How do pregnant, low-income African American women experience the culturally grounded Dynamic Breastfeeding Assessment Process? 3B. When the Dynamic Breastfeeding Assessment Process is delivered, is there a measurable difference in breastfeeding self-efficacy and intent among pregnant, low-income African American women? Completion of the D-BAP was hypothesized to be associated with increased breastfeeding intent and higher levels of breastfeeding self-efficacy. A pre-post, paired-samples design was utilized in Phase 3. The Phase 1 and 2 activities successfully resulted in a testable Dynamic Breastfeeding Assessment Process. In Phase 3, women who participated in the D-BAP demonstrated a statistically significant increase in breastfeeding self-efficacy, but not in their breastfeeding intent. The qualitative and quantitative findings from this study can inform future research, particularly as it pertains to supporting low-income African American women to meet their breastfeeding goals: a critically important public health and social work goal.
