Abstract

Mothers have used nipple shields for centuries for various breastfeeding issues and problems. Shield use has become controversial, but many clinicians recommend the use of nipple shields under varying circumstances despite the absence of any professionally peer-reviewed or generally agreed-upon guidelines, protocols, policies, or clinical algorithms. Judicious use of nipple shields can salvage the breastfeeding process, and most mothers have found them to be helpful. However, some mothers and studies have reported problems with shields.

Az emlőgyulladás különböző súlyosságú formái a laktáló nők jelentős százalékát érintik. Mivel súlyos fájdalommal, általános rossz közérzettel, magas lázzal jár, valamint szövődményei is súlyosak lehetnek, megelőzése és hatékony gyógyítása fontos népegészségügyi feladat. A szoptatás idő előtti abbahagyásának okai között szinte az első helyen szerepel az emlőgyulladás miatti fájdalom, az elhúzódó gyógyulás, a betegség többszöri ismétlődése vagy az esetlegesen kialakuló emlőtályog.

Abstract

Poor production of breast milk is the most frequent cause of breast lactation failure. Often, physician prescribe medications or other substances to solve this problem. The use of galactogogues should be limited to those situations in which reduced milk production from treatable causes has been excluded. One of the most frequent indication for the use of galactogogues is the diminution of milk production in mothers using indirect lactation, particularly in the case of preterm birth.

Breastfeeding Challenges: ACOG Committee Opinion, Number 820. Obstet Gynecol. 2021 Feb 1;137(2):e42-e53.

Abstract

Breastfeeding is associated with a decrease in a woman's risk of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, diabetes mellitus, and hypertensive heart disease. Breastfeeding initiation rates in the United States are increasing, and many women are aware of the maternal and infant health benefits of breastfeeding. However, problems may arise that can keep women from achieving their breastfeeding goals, and only 25% of women in the United States are breastfeeding exclusively at 6 months. Many women experience early and undesired weaning because of persistent pain or nipple injury. A focused history and physical examination are essential to help obstetrician-gynecologists and other obstetric care professionals distinguish the specific cause of their patients' pain and determine appropriate treatment.

Abstract

Background: In the past 10-15 years, there has been increased concern about ankyloglossia and its effect on infant breastfeeding. This has been associated with increased performance of frenotomy. Physicians and other healthcare professionals with expertise in breastfeeding have voiced concerns about complications related to the performance of infant frenotomy. Reviews of this topic have reported no significant complications after frenotomy. Other data on complications consist of case reports.

Abstract

Background Biological nurturing is a neurobehavioral approach to breastfeeding support that encourages women to breastfed in a relaxed, laidback position. This approach has the potential to reduce breast problems (e.g., sore nipples), making good latch easier and thus facilitating the initiation of exclusive breastfeeding. However, its effects have not been adequately investigated in a real-life situation. The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to assess the effectiveness of biological nurturing, compared to usual hospital practices, on the frequency of breast problems and on the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding at discharge from the maternity ward, after 1 week, and at one and 4 months.
