Brief Summary

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

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.

Study Groups

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

Breastfeeding Support System

The intervention group was given breastfeeding support system care

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Routine nursing care

Intervention Type OTHER

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

breastfeeding support system

Intervention Type OTHER

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.

Control group

Routine nursing care was given to the pretrms in this groups without any breastfeeding support system care

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
