Overview

Cohort study investigates factors influencing breastfeeding at discharge for preterm infants, suggesting the need for additional support.

Key Points

  • This research aims to identify clinical practices that facilitate partial direct breastfeeding in preterm infants before discharge.
  • Prospective cohort study involving 373 preterm infants admitted to the NICU in Hohhot from June 2023 to December 2024.
  • Utilized univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses to evaluate associations with breastfeeding outcomes.
  • Normal breast development and early achievement of full oral feeding were linked to higher rates of partial direct breastfeeding at discharge.
  • Lower birth weight and maternal breastfeeding confidence were associated with the need for enhanced clinical support.
