NCT07354360
Breastfeeding is essential for infant survival and maternal health; however, many primipara women experience breastfeeding difficulties in the early postpartum period, particularly, latching difficulties, ineffective milk transfer, low breastfeeding self-efficacy and breast engorgement, which may compromise successful breastfeeding. Oketani massage is a non-pharmacological, cost-effective breast massage technique developed to enhance milk flow, improve maternal comfort during breastfeeding and reduce breast engorgement. This study aims to evaluate effect of Oketani massage on successful breastfeeding. Successful breastfeeding will be assessed through indicators of maternal latching technique, successful breastfeeding behavior and maternal breastfeeding self-efficacy. The findings of this study may support the use of Oketani massage as a supportive nursing intervention to promote successful breastfeeding outcomes in the early postpartum period
NCT07461428
This randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an education program based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) Model and grounded in the philosophy of hypnobreastfeeding provided to primiparous pregnant women.
NCT06921382
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how to improve exclusive breastfeeding rates. The main questions it aims to answer are: Do Hispanic mothers benefit from peer counseling support from peer counselors who can speak Spanish? Are mothers more likely to continue exclusive breastfeeding if additional funds are given so that the WIC exclusive breastfeeding package has the same cash value as the WIC formula feeding package? Researchers will compare participants in the intervention group (who receive peer counseling and additional funds) to a control group (who do not receive peer counseling or additional funds) to see if the intervention package improves breastfeeding rates. All participants (intervention and control) will complete weekly surveys about their feeding experiences ($8 per week). Members of the research team will also take infant weight/length measurements at home (twice during the first month and then at 2, 4, and 6 months). Participants will be recruited during pregnancy and the study will last for the first 6 months after their babies are born. Mothers and their infants are both participants in the study. Participants in the intervention condition will also be matched with Spanish-speaking peer counselors who will visit mothers at home regularly (weekly at the beginning of the study, monthly at the end of the study). In Month 1, mothers can choose to receive a $150 gift card or an electric breast pump. In Months 2-5, if infants are signed up for the WIC exclusive breastfeeding package, infants will receive $100 and mothers will receive $50. If infants are signed up for the WIC partial breastfeeding package, infants will receive $50 and mothers will receive $30.
NCT07107867
This study was conducted to determine the effect of breastfeeding counseling given to primiparous pregnant women before birth on breastfeeding self-efficacy and infant feeding attitudes in the postpartum period. Hypotheses of this study: H11: There is a difference in postpartum breastfeeding self-efficacy between the intervention group that received prenatal breastfeeding counseling and the control group. H10: There is no difference in postpartum breastfeeding self-efficacy between the intervention group that received prenatal breastfeeding counseling and the control group. H21: There is a difference between the intervention group that received prenatal breastfeeding counseling and the control group in terms of postnatal infant feeding attitude. H20: There is no difference between the intervention group that received prenatal breastfeeding counseling and the control group in terms of postnatal infant feeding attitude.
NCT06790654
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a text-based motivational interviewing (MI) intervention can increase exclusive breastfeeding rates and breastfeeding self-efficacy in mothers of healthy full-term infants. This study focuses on addressing breastfeeding barriers, particularly among mothers in underserved and rural populations. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does a text-based MI intervention improve exclusive breastfeeding rates at two, four, and six weeks postpartum? * Does the intervention increase maternal breastfeeding self-efficacy during the same period? Researchers will compare the outcomes of mothers receiving the text-based MI intervention to standard breastfeeding support to assess its feasibility, acceptability, and initial effectiveness. Participants will: * Receive weekly personalized motivational text messages for six weeks postpartum. * Engage in interactive exchanges with MI-trained interviewers addressing breastfeeding challenges. * Complete surveys at baseline, mid-intervention, and post-intervention to assess breastfeeding behaviors and self-efficacy.
NCT05362305
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a text message intervention called Essential Coaching for Every Mother in Tanzania to improve mothers' access to essential newborn care information during the immediate six-week postnatal period.
NCT06209658
The Teach-Back method was initially developed as a communication technique for patients to remember important information about their diagnosis, treatment or medication and to understand what to do. Method; It requires recalling and explaining any information learned during the interaction between the healthcare team and clients. It has been seen that the use of the tell-what-you-learned method can be used effectively in increasing the learning and comprehension level of individuals who lack health knowledge, contributing to positive health behaviors and reducing the return to health institutions, and it has begun to be used in different areas that require patient education. There are no examples of studies in which the tell-what-you-learned method, which has been brought to the agenda and implemented abroad in recent years, is used in our country. The development of breastfeeding self-efficacy is a very challenging process. Postpartum anxiety occurs in women with low breastfeeding self-efficacy perception. Different training methods are used to initiate and maintain breastfeeding. However, there is no generally accepted method that can bridge the communication gap between patients and healthcare professionals and can be used in health education. It is important to use the tell-what-you-learned method, which is used in patient/client training and is expressed as a communication technique based on expressing what the caregivers have learned in their own words, as it is not enough for the individuals being cared for to say "I understand", in terms of increasing the success of breastfeeding and improving the health of the mother and baby.
