Abstract
BackgroundThe Haakaa and other similar style silicone breast pumps have become very popular over the past few years. There is very little research on this type of pump.MethodsThe results of two online surveys on Haakaa and other similar style silicone breast pump use are presented: one for families and one for professionals.ResultsWith over 5,100 responses from families and over 500 responses from professionals, this new information helps reveal what is actually happening with families and the use of this common tool.ConclusionsThe majority of families and professionals are familiar with this type of pumpand have had positive experiences with it. A small number of families had negativeexperiences, especially when the pump was mis-applied or they had no instruction on use of the pump. IBCLCs need to provide accurate information as to when this type of pump might be an appropriate tool and instructions as how to use it properly.
