Summary

This study aimed to examine the impact of a breastfeeding support system on breast milk production and mother-infant bonding in preterm infants. The sample included 70 preterm infants and their mothers, divided into two groups: 35 in the control group and 35 in the experimental group, all of whom met the study criteria.

Conditions

  • Preterm
  • Breastfeeding
  • Breast Milk
  • Breastfeeding Support System

Interventions

OTHER

Routine nursing care

Preterm infants in the control group did not receive any intervention other than the routine feeding protocol applied in the clinic.

OTHER

breastfeeding support system

The body weight of preterm infants in the experimental group was measured and recorded each morning before their first feeding. Mothers of these infants were asked to complete the Mother-Infant Attachment Scale (MIAS) prior to the procedure. The physician determined the appropriate amount of breast milk the infant should receive during feeding. Before each feeding, the neonatal nurse ensured the sterile preparation of the milk and transferred it to the Breastfeeding Support System. The mothers were then prepared for the procedure, with the neonatal nurse explaining how the breastfeeding support system worked. Once both the mother and baby were ready, the baby was placed at the mother's breast. After feeding, the mothers were asked to complete the MIAS again.
