Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Firstly, 10 participant's breast pump parts are collected, divided, washed, and dried before comparing the two methods of steam sanitation. We will test to compare the safety of the Q. Basin compared to the current method of steam bag sanitation. We will collect participant's breast pump parts and complete surface swab testing for bacteria and mold immediately after sanitation and additionally 24 hours later.

Secondly, 20 participant questionnaires will measure satisfaction ratings of participants pumping human milk for hospitalized infants using two different wash, dry and steam sanitation methods. This study design will determine if participant satisfaction improves with breast pump part sanitation using the Q. Basin, compared to the current steam sanitization bag method.
