“…EBF is associated with increased duration of any breastfeeding, (Brownell et al, ) and studies have shown a dose–response relationship between the duration of breastfeeding and a reduction in risk for infant morbidity and mortality (Chantry et al, ; Merten, Dratva, & Ackermann‐Liebrich, ; Sankar et al, ; Victora et al, ). Therefore, EBF is a valuable public health indicator (American Academy of Pediatrics, ; Brownell et al, ). EBF rates in the United States (US) continue to fall below Healthy People 2020 goals, with a disparity in EBF rates between groups that varies by factors such as race/ethnicity, age of mother, educational attainment, and family income (Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, ).…”

“…While breastfeeding overall is beneficial, exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) has been associated with a greater level of protection (Chantry, Howard, & Auinger, 2006;Ip et al, 2007;Kramer et al, 2001;Quigley, Kelly, & Sacker, 2007;Vennemann et al, 2009).

In 2014, a leading hospital accreditation agency, mandated hospitals publicly report their exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) rates. This new regulation provided an opportunity to explore differences in EBF outcomes using a standardized definition across a large hospital sample in the United States. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between population demographics and the Baby-friendly (BF) hospital designation on EBF rates in hospitals throughout the United States. We obtained EBF rates from 121 BF hospitals and 1,608 hospitals without the BF designation. Demographic variables were computed using census tract data for the population surrounding each hospital. Relationships were explored using linear regression. We found that EBF rates were positively correlated with a bachelor's degree, log income, and those who identified as White or Asian and negatively correlated with those without college attendance, individuals living below the poverty line, and those who identified as African American or Hispanic. For all models, the BF designation of a hospital was associated with higher EBF rates (p < 0.01; effect sizes, 0.11-0.49) with the exception of the model containing log income. Using a multiple linear regression model that was allowed to contain more than one independent variable, we were able to explain 22% of the variability in EBF rates. The BF hospital designation was associated with significantly higher EBF rates independent of demographic variables. Support for hospitals to attain the BF hospital designation is a meaningful public health goal.

Background: Globally , nearly three fourth of infants less than-six was not exclusively-brestfeed. While in Ethiopia, the proportion was only slightly above half. In refugee, setting life is not stable, due to lack of infrastructure and adequate health care service mother and infant face many health related problems, like interruption of exclusively breastfeed which intern lead them to malnutrition and impaired growth.Objectives: To assess the Determinants of Interruption of Exclusive Breastfeeding among mother who have infant less than six month at Dollo Ado Refugees camp, Ethiopia, 2017.Methods: A case -control study design was conduct at Dollo Ado refugee camp from April 05 to 25, 2017. Simple random sampling technique used to select 111 eligible case and 222 controls during the study period. A structured and pretested interviewer administered questionnaire used to collect the data. Logistic regression models fitted to assess significant factor, which determine interruption of Exclusive breast-feeding in the study area.Results: In this study not getting antenatal counseling about infant feeding (A-OR =5.87, 2.63-13.10), postnatal counseling about infant feeding (A-OR= 4.33, 2.7 - 10.78) and presence of problem of breastfeeding (AOR= 10.72, 4.55 - 25.23), late initiation of breastfeeding (AOR= 4.79, 2.28-10.0) were significant determinants of interruption of exclusive breastfeeding.Conclusions : In this study, not getting antenatal and postnatal counseling about infant and young child feeding, problem of breastfeeding, late initiation of Exclusive breastfeeding were significant determinants of interruption of EBF. Planer and manager should focus on provision of mother advice on Infant and Young Child Feeding during Antenatal and Postnatal Care. Health professional should be alert on treating problem of breastfeeding.

Background Breastfeeding women with hypogalactia are commonly recommended to use fenugreek as a galactogogue. This study aimed to achieve formal consensus among breastfeeding women and healthcare providers on which potential harms and benefits of using fenugreek need to be communicated and discussed during clinical consultations. Methods A two-iterative round Delphi technique was used in two separate panels of breastfeeding women (n = 65) and healthcare providers (n = 56) to achieve formal consensus on a list of 24 and 16 items related to potential harms and benefits of fenugreek. Results About 70% of the healthcare providers recommended quite often herbal remedies for breastfeeding women and about 68% of the women had been recommended to use herbal remedies many times by their healthcare providers. Consensus was achieved on 21 potential harms and 14 potential benefits of using fenugreek to enhance human milk supply that need to be discussed with breastfeeding women during consultations. Conclusion Probably, potential harms and benefits of recommending fenugreek as herbal galactogogue for breastfeeding women seeking recommendations to increase their human milk supply need to be discussed during clinical consultations. Further observational studies are needed to assess what is being discussed in daily consultations when herbal remedies are recommended.
