Abstract | dc.description.abstract | Introduction: Limited information is available regarding factors contributing to exclusive breastfeeding until
the sixth month. This information is needed to design appropriate policy interventions. Methods: A survey
about socio-demographic characteristics, information received, onset and duration of breastfeeding and causes of weaning was applied. Factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months were determined
by multivariate logistic regression. Results: 256 mothers attending a public sector hospital and 158 mothers
attending a private sector hospital responded to the survey. The following factors were higher in the private
sector group: Education level, primiparity, cesarean sections and work outside the home (p < 0.02). 45.8%
of mothers continued exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months, with no difference seen between groups. The
main causes of weaning were: maternal decision (27.2%), perceived hunger (24.1%), esthetic factors (17.3%)
and child’s illness (13.0%). Exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months was associated with a previous successful
breastfeeding (OR 5.4, 95% CI 2.2-13.2), female child (OR 5.5 CI 2.5-12.3), lower maternal education (OR
5.4 CI 2.4-11.7) and public health system (OR 2.1 CI 1.0-4.5). Conclusion: Weaning is often associated with
maternal perceptions rather than objective data. Socio-demographic variables infl uence successful prolonged
breastfeeding. Better education in health factors and breastfeeding might improve this situation. | |
Abstract | dc.description.abstract | Introducción: Existe limitada información de los factores que contribuyen a una lactancia materna exclusiva
hasta el sexto mes, datos necesarios para diseñar adecuadas políticas de intervención. Pacientes y Método:
Estudio de corte transversal. Se aplicó una encuesta sobre características socio-demográfi cas, información
recibida, inicio y duración de la lactancia y causas de destete. Por regresiones logísticas multivariadas se determinaron factores asociados a lactancia exclusiva de 6 meses. Resultados: 256 madres del sector público y
158 del sector privado fueron incluidas. Se observó mayor escolaridad, primiparidad, cesáreas y trabajo fuera
del hogar en sistema privado (p < 0,02); 45,8% de madres mantuvo lactancia exclusiva hasta 6 meses, sin diferencias entre grupos. Principales causas de destete: decisión materna (27,2%), percepción de hambre (24,1%),
factores estéticos (17,3%) y enfermedad del niño (13,0%). La lactancia exclusiva hasta los 6 meses se asoció
con una lactancia previa exitosa (OR 5,4, 95% IC 2,2-13,2) sexo femenino del hijo (OR 5,5, IC 2,5-12,3), menor escolaridad materna (OR 5,4, IC 2,4-11,7) y sistema público de salud (OR 2,1, IC 1,0-4,5). Conclusión:
El destete muchas veces está relacionado con percepciones maternas más que con datos objetivos. Variables
socio-demográfi cas infl uyen en lactancia exitosa. Mayor educación en controles de salud y clínicas de lactancia mejorarían esta situación. | |
