Interventions to Improve Breastfeeding Outcomes in Late Preterm and Early Term Infants

This is the first systematic review to identify interventions available for both LPIs and ETIs. Overall, there are limited studies that investigate interventions promoting breastfeeding in these populations. However, breastfeeding support delivered by health care professionals seems to improve breastfeeding rates. The main limitations are the lack of randomization, blinding, and adjustment for confounding variables. Experimental studies with robust methodological design are needed.
