Impact of Different Electric Pumping Modalities on Milk Volume Production in Mothers of Preterm Infants

NCT01802047 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2016-03-29

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Initiating and sustaining breastfeeding are common challenges in neonatal units.

It is known that hindmilk expressed at the end of the expression session has a higher fat content.

Previous studies have shown that simultaneous pumping is more effective at producing milk than sequential pumping. However this approach is often felt uncomfortable by the mothers, and sequential pumping is preferred.

The purpose of this study is to determine which modality of milk expression by electric pump is the most efficient and productive when sequential pumping is used.This is done by assessing the milk volume expressed per expression and its macronutrients content.
