Filter by:The study hypothesizes that human who are both breastfeeding and pumping in the first days postpartum have more expression volume with an additional 5 minutes of pumping with Maintain program after pumping with the INITIATE program.
This research was carried out in order to determine the effect of breast massage and hot compresses on milk release and anxiety to mothers with premature babies in YYBU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit)
This study will evaluate a newly developed device, Q. Basin. The Q. Basin is a multifunctional, single patient use device that can sanitize breast pump parts, bottles, and reusable feeding devices for patients admitted under one year of age. Improving the current sanitation method would provide a quick and efficient sanitation process for breast pump parts. This study will compare the Q. Basin to the current method of steam bag sanitation.
This is a pilot feasibility and acceptability study of a randomized clinical trial of pregnant women at 36 weeks of gestation and greater randomized to one of two arms at Yale New Haven Hospital: (1) Breast stimulation by hand or with an electronic breast pump (intervention) compared to (2) Exogenous oxytocin intravenous infusion (current standard of care, control). The pilot study will be randomized since one of the goals is to evaluate whether the idea of randomization would be acceptable to patients.
The study hypothesizes that mothers who are both breastfeeding and pumping in the first days report improved comfort levels with the new Symphony program card INITIATE 2.0 compared to the standard of care.
Babies are the best in class in order to get human milk out of a lactating breast. With this in mind, Philips has developed the a new electric breast pump, attempting to mimic the babies sucking behavior. The new electric breast pump includes a new vacuum profile and 2 new expression kits.
A functional model of a fluid-filled, smaller dead volume breast pump has been developed in order to more closely mimic the breastfeeding infant. The technology of fluid-filled pumping has been tested in one prior clinical study and has now progressed to a complete prototype with which the user can assemble, pump, disassemble, clean and reuse.
In Toronto Ontario, the Parkdale Community Health Centre operates a community outreach program entitled Parkdale Parents' Primary Prevention Project (5P's). The 5P's provides weekly pre- and post-natal support and education programs for clients. This includes an infant feeding program for mothers with infants 0-6 months (Feeding Tiny Souls). The 5P's has a diverse client-base; the program is aimed at women who are in challenging life circumstances, therefore, clients may include low-income or single mothers and newcomers to Canada. The overall goal of this research is to optimize the existing 5P's program. Program acceptability is an essential component of the process evaluation to understand the experiences of mothers and the perceived supports and barriers of the program. Specifically, the aim of this project is twofold: 1) to investigate the perceptions and experiences of accessibility of a postnatal community program and 2) to explore the perceptions of, and attitudes toward, a community infant feeding program offering lactation consultant and breast pump resources. This study will use a qualitative approach by way of semi-structured focus groups and interviews. The study population will consist of women who enrolled in 5P's prenatally and have delivered their infant. This will include women who did and did not continue to participate in the postnatal program and/or Feeding Tiny Souls after delivery. The investigators will specifically seek women who participated in the prenatal program, but did not take part in the postnatal program and/or Feeding Tiny Souls to understand why participants did not access these resources and gather information on their views of these postnatal program components. The hypothesis is that the postnatal community program is a source of support for clients, but that it needs to be expanded to include more clients and the infant feeding program is an important support for helping clients to provide breast milk to their infant.
