Brief Summary

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

Objective: This study will be conducted as a pre-test post-test randomized controlled study in order to determine the effect of postpartum breastfeeding education given to women who had normal vaginal delivery and cesarean section on breastfeeding self-efficacy and breastfeeding success.

Materials and Methods: The data of the study were collected with "Descriptive Information Form, Breastfeeding Knowledge Level Diagnosis Form, LATCH Breastfeeding Diagnosis and Evaluation Scale and Postpartum Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale". SPSS 25.0 (Statistical Package for Social Science) program will be used in the analysis of the data.

Design: Randomized controlled.

The study included 76 women who had normal vaginal and cesarean delivery and met the inclusion criteria (Research Research group, 38 control group) in Zeynep Kamil Gynecology and Pediatrics Education and Hospital Postpartum Postpartum Postpartum Service in Istanbul.

Detailed Description

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

Breast milk is a newborn-specific food that varies according to the baby's needs, body weight and the density that the baby can digest. Breastfeeding, on the other hand, is the most natural action that allows mother's milk to meet with the newborn. In addition to providing benefits for the growth and development of the baby, it contributes significantly to the maintenance of general health in advanced ages, the improvement of health and the reduction of the effect of risk factors affecting health. The concept of breastfeeding self-efficacy is the mother's perception of breastfeeding. Self-efficacy perception about breastfeeding determines the behavior of mothers to continue breastfeeding, whether they can cope with breastfeeding problems, their thoughts and attitudes about breastfeeding. Mother's age, education level, baby's weight and mother's number of births are concepts that can affect breastfeeding self-efficacy perception. Although there are many studies on breastfeeding in the literature, a limited number of studies have been found that determine the effect of the early results of postpartum breastfeeding education on breastfeeding self-efficacy and breastfeeding success.

This study aims to determine the effect of postpartum breastfeeding education given to women who had normal vaginal and cesarean delivery on breastfeeding self-efficacy and breastfeeding success.

The objectives of the research;

* To determine the effect of postpartum breastfeeding education given to women with normal vaginal delivery on breastfeeding self-efficacy.
* To determine the effect of postpartum breastfeeding education given to women who had cesarean section on breastfeeding self-efficacy.
* To determine the effect of postpartum breastfeeding education given to women who had normal vaginal delivery on breastfeeding success.
* To determine the effect of postpartum breastfeeding education given to women who had cesarean section on breastfeeding success.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

experiment group

Breastfeeding training will be given to each mother in the room she stays in the form of lectures and after the training, the question and answer method will be used. In addition, the practices explained by the researcher (the way of holding the baby, grasping the breast and positioning the baby appropriately for the baby, determining the position suitable for breastfeeding and the process of expressing and storing breast milk) will be demonstrated using the mother demonstration method in order to evaluate whether the mother understands the breastfeeding education after the breastfeeding training. Breastfeeding training will take approximately 40-45 minutes.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

breastfeeding education

Intervention Type OTHER

Mothers in the intervention group will be given breastfeeding training after the pre-test application. The content of breastfeeding education is as follows;

* General information about breastfeeding,
* General information about breast milk and the benefits of breast milk,
* Benefits of breastfeeding for mother and baby,
* How the baby should be held during breastfeeding, the baby's position,
* Effective breastfeeding positions for the mother,
* Ensuring that the baby holds the breast correctly,
* Providing the correct breastfeeding technique,
* Breast milking and storage conditions,
* The necessity and benefits of continuing breastfeeding.

Control group

No attempt will be made to the mothers in the control group following the pre-test application, within the scope of the post-test application before discharge; Breastfeeding Knowledge Level Diagnostic Form, LATCH Scale and Postnatal Self-Efficacy Scale will be applied. In addition to the breastfeeding education given to the intervention group following the post-test application to the mothers in the control group, a guide on the importance of breast milk and breastfeeding will also be given.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
