Results:We identifi ed 19 assessment tools, of which 12 were validated and fi ve were cross-culturally adapted. In terms of adaptation, the tools were used to assess the risk of early weaning (BAPT) and the perception/behaviour of mothers during nursing (BSES-SF and IIFAS). Conclusions:The identifi cation of the available instruments and their indications for breastfeeding assessments can help health workers choose the ideal instrument, and qualify maternal and child care. Keywords: Breast feeding. Evolution. Postpartum period. RESUMOObjetivos: Identifi car instrumentos de avaliação da amamentação e sua aplicação na prática clínica, validação e adaptação transcultural. Método: Revisão integrativa, realizada em seis bases de dados e em uma biblioteca eletrônica, entre agosto/2014-dezembro/2015, sem limitação temporal. Resultados: Foram identifi cados 19 instrumentos de avaliação do AM. Destes, 12 foram validados e cinco foram adaptados transculturalmente. Quanto à aplicação, destacam-se seu uso para a avaliação do risco de desmame (BAPT) e a percepção/comportamento da mulher em amamentar (BSES-SF e IIFAS). Conclusão: A identifi cação dos instrumentos disponíveis e de suas indicações para a avaliação do AM pode auxiliar profi ssionais na escolha pelo instrumento a ser utilizado, qualifi cando a assistência materno-infantil. Palavras-chave: Aleitamento materno. Avaliação. Período pós-parto. RESUMEN Objetivo:Identifi car los instrumentos de evaluación de amamantamiento, la aplicación en la práctica clínica, validación y adaptación cultural.

“…A study was done to assess the reliability and construct validity of three instruments used in the clinical area to assess breastfeeding (Riordan & Koehn, 1997). The Infant Breastfeeding Assessment Tool (IBFAT), the Mother Baby Assessment Tool (MBA), and the LATCH were used by nurse raters to score 28 videotaped breastfeeding episodes of healthy newborns.…”

Few women breastfeed for 6 months or longer, and many who stop breastfeeding do so in the early postpartum period. To increase the number of breastfeeding mothers, health-care providers need to identify women at greatest risk for early breastfeeding attrition. This integrative review describes instruments used to assess breastfeeding in the early postpartum period and reports the results of studies using these tools. The instruments are then evaluated for similarities in variables and usefulness for clinical practice.

“…[3][4][5] Several breastfeeding assessment tools have been developed with various purposes ranging from identifying feeding problems in neonates to assessing maternal attitudes and confidence. 6,7 Although these tools have demonstrated moderate to acceptable validity and reliability in accordance with psychometric theory, [6][7][8] only scarce data exist on their accuracy in predicting early breastfeeding cessation.…”

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have revealed conflicting results for the Breastfeeding Assessment Score (BAS) in predicting early breastfeeding cessation. Our objective was to externally validate the BAS and provide summary accuracy estimates for this clinical prediction model. METHODS:We used the original data from a prospective cohort study. Additional studies were identified by searching electronic databases (Medline, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Cochrane) from 2002 to 2013 and contacting research groups that had derived or validated the BAS. Prospective cohort studies were eligible if the BAS was computed at baseline and mothers were followed up for breastfeeding cessation. Two physicians extracted relevant information and independently assessed the methodological quality for the included studies. CONCLUSIONS: Substantial between-study heterogeneity limited the interpretation of summary accuracy estimates. The BAS predicts early breastfeeding cessation with moderate accuracy, although local recalibration is advised before implementation. Further study is warranted to determine whether the BAS can help pediatricians in identifying mother-infant pairs that may benefit from more extensive breastfeeding assessment and support.
