Exclusive Breastfeeding Of Infants Research Articles

The Influence of the SPEOS Method (Stimulation oF Endorphine Massage, Oxytocine and Sugestion) on Breast Milk Production in Breastfeeding Mother 0 – 6 Months

According to the Ministry of Health 2020 Nationally, the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in infants 0-6 months in Indonesia is 66.1%, the rate of exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia is higher than the global rate, thus the achievement of exclusive breastfeeding has not yet reached the target. Based on the results of a preliminary study conducted by researchers at Hamlet 1, Bantarjaya Village, Pebayuran District, Bekasi Regency, there were 64% of breastfeeding mothers who still failed to provide exclusive breastfeeding with several kinds of causative factors and had no or never had health workers apply the SPEOS method (Endorphin Massage Stimulation, Oxytocin and Suggestion) when providing midwifery care to motherspost partum. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the SPEOS method (Endorphin, Oxytocin & Suggestive Massage Stimulation) on Breast Milk Production in Breastfeeding Mothers 0-6 months in Bantarjaya Village, Bekasi Regency in 2022.The research method was carried out using a quantitative research method with an approachQuasi Experimentsby using a statistical testWilcoxon (Not Normal Distribution). The population in this study were all breastfeeding mothers 0-6 months in Bantarjaya Village, namely 40 people. The sample in this study were breastfeeding mothers 0-6 months in Bantarjaya Village using the total sampling technique, the number of samples was 40 people. Data collection with a questionnaire. Data analysis is univariate, bivariate and multivariate analysis. The output of this research is an article published in an Accredited National Journal and an IPR in the form of a pocket book of endorphin massage and oxytocin massage. The results of the study showed that of the 40 breastfeeding mothers, based on their milk production during the pretest, the most were breastfeeding mothers whose milk production was less, namely 57.5% compared to breastfeeding mothers who produced a lot of milk. After doing the SPEOS method (endorphin, oxytocin & suggestive massage stimulation)(post test), breastfeeding mothers whose milk production experienced an increase to 30 people (75%). Meanwhile, breastfeeding mothers whose milk production was less reduced to 10 people (25%).Statistical test results are knownasymp. Sig has a value of 0.000 (P <0.05), so it can be concluded that the hypothesis is accepted. This means that there is a difference between the resultsPretest andPosttest, so it can also be concluded that there is an effect of the SPEOS method (Stimulation of endorphin, oxytocin & suggestive massage) with an increase in milk production in breastfeeding mothers 0-6 months in Bantarjaya Village, Pebayuran District, Bekasi Regency in 2022. The dominant characteristic variable is Parity. The role of health workers and the health service is needed to increase the knowledge and motivation of mothers in carrying out the SPEOS method (Stimulation of endorphin, oxytocin & suggestive massage) the aim is to increase milk production to prepare for the achievement of exclusive breastfeeding for the growth and development of babies through community empowerment such as cadres, community leaders as well as religious figures.

Longitudinal assessment of growth and neurodevelopment of children with in utero severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 exposure: A prospective cohort study

Introduction Research related to the impact of maternal severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection on fetuses and neonates remains limited. The majority of previous studies have focused on immediate outcomes. We conducted this prospective cohort study to evaluate the effect of in utero SARS-CoV-2 exposure on the growth and neurodevelopment of infants, considering the scarcity of long-term follow-up studies in the literature. Primary Objective The primary objective of the study was to compare neurodevelopment and growth up to the age of 1 year among coronavirus disease COVID-positive and COVID-negative neonates born to COVID-positive mothers. Secondary Objectives The secondary objectives of the study were to assess the status of exclusive breastfeeding in infants at the age of 6 months and to assess the risks of vertical and horizontal transmission of COVID-19 infection. Methods We included live neonates with gestational age >28 weeks born to pregnant women who tested positive for COVID-19 by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and delivered at the institute in this prospective observational cohort study. Details related to delivery and neonatal profile, including the neonatal COVID status were collected. Neonates were followed up at 6 months and 1 year for physical growth profile and neurodevelopmental profile using World Health Organization growth charts and the Baroda Development screening test (BDST). Results A total of 6 SARS-CoV-2-positive and 82 SARS-CoV-2-negative neonates were followed until the age of 1 year. There was no statistically significant difference between the SARS-CoV-2-positive and SARS-CoV-2-negative cohorts concerning gestational age (P-value 0.300), birth weight (P-value 0.988), and neonatal intensive care unit admission (P-value 0.288). Approximately 65.9 and 45.4% of infants were still exclusively breastfeeding at the ages of 6 months and 1 year, respectively. No difference was observed in wasting (P-value 0.393) and stunting at the ages of 6 months (P-value 0.656) and 1 year between the two cohorts. Furthermore, no significant difference was observed in neurodevelopmental status at 6 months (P value for BDST score 0.236; P value for developmental quotient (DQ) 0.446) and 1 year (P value for BDST score 0.635; P value for DQ 0.666) between the two groups. Conclusion Our study generated evidence that in utero exposure to SARS-CoV-2 infection does not seem to affect the growth and neurodevelopment of neonates born to SARS-CoV-2-positive mothers; however, further studies including nonexposed controls, are warranted to support our findings. Furthermore, the benefits of rooming-in and breastfeeding on the neurodevelopment and physical growth of infants far outweigh the minimal risk of horizontal transmission.

Factors Associated with Exclusive Breastfeeding in Infants

Breast milk is breast milk, one of the foods that cover all elements of the baby's physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs at the beginning of the baby's life. The study aims to determine the factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding. This type of quantitative research uses analytical surveys with cross-sectional methods. The sample size in this study was 42 respondents who fit the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results showed that there is a relationship between knowledge and exclusive breastfeeding with a value of p = 0.016, there is a relationship between education and exclusive breastfeeding with a value of p = 0.030, there is a relationship between work and exclusive breastfeeding with a value of p = 0.000 there is a relationship between motivation and exclusive breastfeeding with a value of p = 0.032 this shows that the value of p < α = 0.05. It can be concluded that there is a relationship between knowledge, education, work, and motivation with exclusive breastfeeding. Suggestions for mothers who are breastfeeding can increase awareness to provide exclusive breastfeeding to their babies considering the role and function of breast milk from various aspects, such as aspects of maternal immunity and health, and working mothers are expected to pay more attention to exclusive breastfeeding to their babies, this is so that babies can meet the nutritional needs and growth of infant development Mothers with higher and low education must continue to breastfeed their babies and stay motivated to find out the nutritional needs of infants

Establishment of cross-cradle hold technique combined with intensive breastfeeding counselling positively impacts the weight gain rate in early infancy.

A quasiexperimental field study was undertaken in 576 exclusively breastfed (EBF) infants from 0 to 14 weeks in Gujarat, India to assess the effect of the use of appropriate breastfeeding techniques on daily weight gain rate and on reducing the underweight rate in early infancy. The interventions were delivered through the existing health system and focused primarily on counselling pregnant women during antenatal and post-natal sessions for ensuring 'effective breastfeeding' by adoption of the technique of 'cross cradle hold', appropriate breast attachment, emptying of one breast before shifting to the other along with conducting regular monitoring of infant's weight. The intervention care group (ICG) of 300 EBF infants were compared with 276 EBF infants in the control standard care group (SCG). The findings revealed that median weight gain per day between 0 and 14 weeks was significantly higher (p = 0.000) in ICG (32.7 g) as compared with SCG (28.05 g). The median weight-for-age Z at 14 weeks of age was also significantly higher in ICG compared with SCG (p = 0.000). Underweight prevalence was three times lower in ICG (5.3%) compared with SCG (16.7%) at 14 weeks of age. Infants in the ICG were noted to be 2.65-fold more likely to achieve a weight gain of 30 g or more per day compared with infants in SCG. Nutrition interventions, therefore, must aim not only on mere promotion of EBF for up to 6 months but stress on ensuring EBF is 'effective' for optimum transfer of breastmilk through adoption of appropriate techniques, including cross-cradle hold, by mothers.

Thiamine deficiency in exclusive breastfed infants with encephalopathy attending Govind Ballabh Panth children hospital, Srinagar

Background: Thiamine deficiency (TD) has historically affected countries and populations consuming milled white rice. TD in infants can have an acute presentation of encephalopathy with shock with severe metabolic acidosis and death sometimes, if not promptly treated with an intravenous dose of thiamine. Aim was to study the biochemical deficiency of thiamine in exclusively breastfed infants presenting with encephalopathy and compare them with age-matched controls and to study their clinical course and short-term outcome (till discharge). Methods: After dividing infants into four groups based on age in days: (31-60 days; 13 in cases and 8 in controls; 61-90; 4 in cases and 3 in controls; 91-120 days; 2 in cases and none in controls; and >120 days 4 each in cases and controls. This study primarily included the selection of case/control subjects. Two case-control analyses were conducted. In the first one, blood thiamine levels were compared between infants with encephalopathy and without encephalopathy. In the second one, breast milk thiamine levels were compared between infants with encephalopathy and without encephalopathy. Student's independent t test was used for statistical analysis. Results: Out of 38 infants, 23 had presented with encephalopathy, and 15 were healthy taken as controls. The mean blood levels of thiamine in infants with encephalopathy in cases were 17.29 nmol/l with a standard deviation of 8.86: the levels ranged between 13.47 and 21.13. The mean value of controls was 51.31, with a standard deviation of 25.52 ranging between 23.25 and 124.7. The p<0.001 and was considered statistically significant. The ROC analysis of the data obtained from thiamine levels obtained in the study 'patient's blood compared with the control group. Conclusions: TD can be clinically and biochemically attributed to presentation of infants with acute encephalopathy.

Frequency of Iron Deficiency Anaemia in Exclusively Breastfed and Infants Fed on Cow’s Milk

Introduction: Iron is the most prevalent nutrient deficiency in infants and young children around the world despite its importance for healthy brain development. Infants who drink whole cow's milk or other animal milks are at a greater risk of developing iron deficiency anaemia. In our culture, cow's milk consumption is widespread. There were no local studies available on iron deficiency anemia in infants using different types of milk so need for the present study was felt. Objectives: The objectives of this study were to determine the frequency of exclusively breastfed and cow’s milk fed infants at 3 month of age and to compare the frequency of iron deficiency anemia in exclusively breastfed and cow’s milk fed infants. Study Design: It was a cross-sectional study. Setting and Duration: Research was conducted at the Medical Outpatient Department of The Children’s Hospital and The Institute of Child Health Lahore from 08/02/2022 to 07/08/2022. Material and Methods: This study involved 220 infants of both genders at 3 months of age presenting for vaccination. Outcome variables were frequency of exclusive breast feeding and iron deficiency anemia. All patients' guardians signed an informed consent form. Results: There were 115 (52.3%) male and 105 (47.7%) female patients in the study group. The Hb of the patients ranged from 7.6 g/dl to 14.5 g/dl with a mean of 11.00±1.98 g/dl while the serum iron level ranged from 41 µg/dl to 115 µg/dl with a mean of 67.94±22.99 µg/dl. Majority of the parents (56.4%) belonged to poor class and 46.4% mothers were illiterate. The frequency of exclusive breastfed infants was 45 (20.5%). There was no significant difference in the frequency of exclusive breast feeding across gender (p=0.873), socioeconomic (p=0.900) and educational (p=0.858) status. 76 (34.5%) Infants had iron deficiency anemia. The frequency of iron deficiency anemia was higher among infants on cow’s milk (37.7% vs. 22.2%) as compared to those on exclusive breast feeding however the observed difference was statistically insignificant (p=0.051). Similar insignificant difference was observed across gender, socioeconomic and educational status groups. Conclusion: The frequency of exclusive breastfed infants was 45 (20.5%). There was no significant difference in the frequency of exclusive breast feeding across gender (p=0.873), socioeconomic (p=0.900) and educational (p=0.858) status. 76 (34.5%) Infants had iron deficiency anemia. The frequency of iron deficiency anemia was insignificantly higher among infants on cow’s milk (37.7% vs. 22.2%; p=0.051) as compared to those on exclusive breast feeding. Similar insignificant difference was observed across gender, socioeconomic and educational status groups. Keywords: Exclusive Breast Feeding, Cow’s Milk Feeding, Iron Deficiency Anemia

Sociodemographic and Cultural Aspects of the Gayo Community in Exclusive Breastfeeding in the Work Area of the Pegasing Health Center, Central Aceh

Exclusive breastfeeding is breastfeeding only, without additional fluids and other foods for the first 6 months. Economic, cultural, and sociodemographic factors are thought to influence mothers to keep working even though their babies still need exclusive breastfeeding. This study aimed to describe cultural and sociodemographic factors related to exclusive breastfeeding in the working area of the Pegasing Health Center, Central Aceh. This research is an observational study. A total of 73 mothers participated in this study. The inclusion criteria are mothers who have children aged 0-5 years, domicile in the Pegasing Health Center work area, and are willing to participate in this study. Sociodemographic data and the level of knowledge of mothers regarding exclusive breastfeeding were measured using a structured interview and questionnaire. Cultural aspects related to exclusive breastfeeding were explored through focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. The majority of participants had senior high school education (57.5%), family income was below the Central Aceh regional minimum wage (95.89%), and mothers' knowledge regarding exclusive breastfeeding was considered good (50.7%). Meanwhile, mothers considered that family support in breastfeeding was good (50.7%). However, support from health workers was considered to be lacking regarding exclusive breastfeeding (38.4%). Based on the results of the interviews, there are habits making up and myths about dena which inhibit exclusive breastfeeding in infants in the Gayo area. In conclusion, family income and cultural factors have a role in exclusive breastfeeding in the working area of the Pegasing Health Center, Central Aceh.

Exclusive Breastfeeding Measured by Deuterium-Oxide Turnover Method is Associated with Motor Development in Rural Senegalese Infants

BackgroundThe findings on the relationship between breastfeeding and children’s motor development are very poor, particularly in low and middle income countries, because of the use of inadequate measures of breastfeeding practices. ObjectivesTo assess the relationship between exclusive breastfeeding, measured by the deuterium-oxide turnover method (DTM), and the acquisition of motor development in a cohort of Senegalese children. MethodsOne hundred forty mother-infant (4–5 mo) pairs were recruited and monitored up to 18 mo. Breast milk intake and breastfeeding practices were measured by DTM. Six stages of motor development were assessed: “sitting without support,” “hands-and-knees crawling,” “standing with assistance,” “walking with assistance,” “standing alone,” and “walking alone.” Acquisition age of motor milestones between exclusively breastfed (EBF) and not exclusively breastfed (non-EBF) infants was compared using Student’s and Wilcoxon’s tests. Mixed linear regression, adjusted with confounding factors, was used to determine the association between EBF and motor development. ResultsOverall, 32.9% of infants were EBF at the enrollment at 4–5 mo of age. Breast milk intake of EBF infants was significantly higher than that of non-EBF infants (1039 ± 193 g/d compared with 915 ± 211 g/d; P < 0.01). At 4–5 mo of age, only “sitting without support” (67.4% compared with 47.9%, P = 0.02) and “hands-and-knees crawling” (17.4% compared with 4.3%, P = 0.01) were completed significantly in the EBF group. At 18 mo, all children had completed all 6 motor developmental milestones. However, their acquisition age was significantly earlier in the EBF group after adjustment. Non-EBF infants had a delay of 0.4 to 0.5 mo on the acquisition of the first 5 stages compared to EBF infants. For “walking alone,” no difference was found after adjustment. ConclusionsMotor skill acquisition is earlier in EBF infants compared to non-EBF infants. This finding highlights the need to strengthen the advocacy for EBF up to 6 mo.

Beliefs and Norms Influencing Initiation and Sustenance of Exclusive Breastfeeding: Experiences of Mothers in Primary Health Care Facilities in Ermelo, South Africa.

Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) is not a norm in many communities in South Africa despite the World Health Organizations' recommendations for EBF in the first six months of infant's life. Thus, South Africa continues to observe suboptimal and poor practices of EBF. The purpose of the study was to explore the experiences of mothers who are HIV-positive and negative on EBF and examine the extent to which initiation and sustenance of EBF is influenced by cultural beliefs, societal norms, and family norms and practices in Mpumalanga Province. Three focus group discussions and twelve in-depth interviews were conducted among thirty mothers who were purposively selected during their visits to the facilities for childcare services. Interviews were audiotaped, transcribed verbatim, and transcripts were analysed through thematic analysis using NVivo version 10. Mothers were aged between 18 and 42 years, most were unemployed and were living in poor sociodemographic backgrounds in extended family households. We found evidence of factors that influence the decision to EBF and mix feed infants among mothers. Traditional and cultural beliefs and norms that exist within their communities informed decisions mothers took to EBF. These beliefs existed alongside mothers' opinions on breastfeeding (BF) and HIV infection, as well as the fears of harming the baby through HIV infection, leading to early cessation of BF. Mothers were also advised by family members, friends, and even some healthcare workers to use traditional medicines while BF. The association of EBF with sagging breasts and weight loss as well as discomfort with public BF are personal beliefs that influenced initiation and early cessation of EBF. Breastfeeding messages ought to be context specific to improve the knowledge, understanding, acceptance and practice of EBF among HIV-positive and negative mothers. Culturally appropriate counselling messages that address the known cultural practices of the populations affected are essential to changing the beliefs and norms of the communities including extended families of EBF mothers.

Impact of Infant and Young Child Feeding Practices on the Nutritional Status of Children in Northern Bangladesh

Background: Proper feeding practices are essential for attaining and maintaining optimum nutrition, health, and development of infants and children. Exclusive breastfeeding during the first six months of life and continued breastfeeding for two years, together with age-appropriate, nutritionally adequate complementary feeding initiated after six months of age, are optimum Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) practices. However, often many aspects of infant and young child feeding practices are not optimum, with serious consequences for the child.&#x0D; Objective: To determine the impact of Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) practices on the nutritional status of children. Materials and Method: This Cross-sectional descriptive type of study was conducted among 314 children from 6 months to 24 months of age at the Pediatric Outpatient Department and EPI center of Rajshahi Medical College Hospital during the period of January 2017 to December 2018. Collected data were analyzed by using 'SPSS version 16.&#x0D; Result: Among 314 children exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) rate was 68.2% for the first six months, and timely started complementary feeding was 58.5% of cases. In 214 exclusive breastfed infants, only 4.7% and 1.4% of children were moderate to severely wasted and stunted, respectively. On the other hand, among 97 infants who were not exclusively breastfed, the percentage of moderate to severe wasting and stunting was 11.4% and 13.4%, respectively. Among the 175 timely started complementary feeding children, only 12% and 6% were moderate to severely underweight and wasted, respectively, no one was stunted, but among the inappropriately started complementary children, 20.2%, 12.5%, and 12.8% were moderately to severely underweight, wasted and stunted respectively.&#x0D; Conclusion: Most of the children who were given exclusive breastfeeding in the first six months and started complementary food at an appropriate time after six months had normal nutritional status. Both moderate to severe stunting and wasting were common in those children who were non-exclusively breastfed and started complementary feeding either early or late.&#x0D; TAJ 2022; 35: No-2: 83-91

STUDI KASUS: KONSELING LAKTASI PADA IBU POSTPARTUM UNTUK MENINGKATKAN BERAT BADAN BAYI

Neonates are newborns up to 28 days old, where there is a very big change from life inside the womb to outside the womb. Lactation counseling is most effective for increasing exclusive breastfeeding in infants. The success of exclusive breastfeeding cannot be separated from being influenced by several factors including age, level of education, experience and husband's support. Mothers who give birth for the first time do not have health information about breastfeeding, so midwives need to conduct lactation counseling. Lactation counseling about exclusive breastfeeding, how to care for breasts and proper breastfeeding techniques. This case study describes the management of midwifery care for Mrs. A, a 20-year-old primipara, who was confused about caring for a baby after giving birth. Handling efforts are carried out with a lactation counseling and guidance approach. Case studies use assistive devices in the form of a midwifery care format for normal newborns and status sheets or patient documentation and a list of interview questions. Data analysis used is data reduction, data presentation and conclusion. The result of the case study was that Mrs. A's baby's weight increased by 550 grams for 14 days after being given lactation counseling and breastfeeding guidance. Comprehensive midwifery care provided increases mothers' understanding of newborn care.

ANALISIS MUTU PRODUK COOKIES BERBASIS JANTUNG PISANG SEBAGAI ALTERNATIF MAKANAN SELINGAN IBU MENYUSUI

Low production of breast milk in breastfeeding mothers is one of the factors causing the low coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in infants. One of the efforts to increase breast milk production is to provide food lactogenic formula. Indonesia has many local foodstuffs that can help facilitate breast milk production, one of which is the banana heart. Banana heart-based cookies are a form of food product development to improve product quality as an alternative food interlude for breastfeeding mothers rich in flavonoids. This study aims to determine the effect of wheat flour and banana heart flour formulations on organoleptic properties and total flavonoid levels. The research was experimental using a Complete Random Design (CRD) one factor; the balance of wheat flour and banana heart flour 25%:75%, 50%:50%, and 75%:25%. The quality testing of cookies was conducted by a hedonic test conducted by 30 trained panelists. The UV-Vis Spectrophotometric method analyzed the total flavonoid levels with AlCl3 reagents. The results showed an influence of the balance of wheat flour and banana heart flour on the taste, texture, and overall cookies (p&lt;0.05). The most preferred cookies by panelists are cookies with wheat flour formula and banana heart flour 75%:25%. One serving of cookies is 52 grams or as many as four pieces. The total content of flavonoid cookies is based on the test results on the most preferred products at 36.92 ppm. Further research is needed to determine the effect of giving cookies on the production of breast milk intended as a snack for breastfeeding mothers.

THE Relationship Of Knowledge And Attitude Of Public Mothers With Early Feeding Of MPASI In The Work Area

&#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; Abstract &#x0D; Background: The World Health Organization or the World Health Organization declares that breast milk is the right food and is suitable for the growth and development of infants throughout the world. However, giving baby complementary foods before reaching the age of 6 months and over will have a very detrimental effect on the baby. Exclusive breastfeeding for infants (&lt; 6 months) contributes greatly to the reduction in infant mortality. On the other hand, giving additional food too early will increase the risk of developing both infectious and non-infectious diseases for the baby. Purpose: This study aims to determine how closely the mother's knowledge and attitudes are with the provision of early MP-ASI in the Kedai Sianam Health Center Work Area, Batu Bara Regency. Methods: This study uses a quantitative approach with the type of observational research with a cross-sectional design where the independent and dependent variables are measured at the same time. The population used is all mothers who have a baby of 6 months. The number of samples based on the sample formula is 32 people. In this study, sampling was done by simple random sampling or by simple random sampling where all members of the population had the opportunity to be selected as samples. Results: The relationship between the mother's level of knowledge about complementary feeding and the provision of complementary feeding in early months in the Kedai Sianam 33 Health Center Work Area, Batu Bara Regency in 2022 with a number of 32 respondents, there is a significant relationship with a p value of 0.001 where the majority of respondents who have poor knowledge give Complementary foods for babies before 6 months.&#x0D; .&#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; Key word: MP-ASI, growth, development, knowledge&#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D;

Estimated exposure to bisphenol A in breastfed and breastfed plus formula-fed infants in Turkey: a comparison study

This study aimed to estimate and compare dietary exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) in exclusively breastfed (EBF) and breastfed plus formula-fed (BF + FF) infants. A total of 70 mothers and their 0–6 month-old infants (40 in the EBF group and 30 in BF + FF group) were included in the study. After the questionnaire form was applied to the mothers, maternal breast milk, infant formula, and infant urine were collected from mother-infant dyads. Total BPA levels in breast milk, infant formula, and infant urine samples were analyzed by the high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). While BPA was detected in 92.5% of the breast milk samples in the EBF group (mean ± SD = 0.59 ± 0.29 ng/mL), BPA was detected in all of the breast milk samples in the BF + FF group (mean ± SD= 0.72 ± 0.37 ng/mL) (p < 0.05). Similarly, 100% of the infant formula samples in the BF + FF group had detectable levels of BPA (mean ± SD = 7.54 ± 1.77 ng/g formula). The mean urinary BPA levels in the EBF infants (4.33 ± 1.89 µg/g creatinine) were not statistically different from the BF + FF infants (5.81 ± 0.11 µg/g creatinine) (p > 0.05). The average daily BPA intake in EBF infants (0.18 ± 0.13 µg/kg body weight (bw)/day) was found to be significantly higher than in BF + FF infants (0.12 ± 0.09 µg/kg bw/day) (p < 0.05). The estimated dietary intakes of BPA for infants in both groups were below the temporary tolerable daily intake (t-TDI) (4 µg/kg bw/day). Consequently, BPA intake of EBF and BF + FF infants were within safe daily limits during the first six months of life.

Faktor-Faktor Yang Berhubungan Dengan Pemberian ASI Eksklusif Pada BayiDi Wilayah Kerja Puskesmas Huraba Kabupaten Tapanuli Selatan

The coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in Indonesia in 2018 of 65.16% has not reached the national target (80%), the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in working area of Puskesmas Huraba in Tapanuli Selatan Regency in 2019 is around 23.2%. This study aims to determine the factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding in infants in Puskesmas Huraba, Tapanuli Selatan Regency in 2020. This type of research is quantitative with a cross sectional design. The population of all mothers who have babies aged 6-12 months, the sample is 57 total sampling techniques. The results showed that there was no relationship between education (p= 0,250), occupation (p=0,920) and attitude (p=0,568) with exclusive breastfeeding. There was a relationship between knowledge (p=0,049) and socio-cultural (p=0.013) with exclusive breastfeeding in the work area of Puskesmas Huraba. It is suggested to health workers at Puskesmas Huraba to increase health promotion about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding for babies so that mothers are more motivated to provide exclusive breastfeeding and mothers should be more proactive in seeking information about exclusive breastfeeding and the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding to increase their knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding.

Comparative Study of Residence Demography With The Duration of Exclusive Breastfeeding in Infants

The duration of breastfeeding is influenced by sociodemographic, biomedical, and psychosocial factors. This study aims to analyze the comparison of the duration of breastfeeding for 6-month infants between rural and urban areas in Indonesia using data from the Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) 2017. This study analyzes secondary data from the 2017 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) with a sample of namely infants aged 6 months as many as 15316 subjects. The independent variable in this study is the sociodemographic characteristics of the place of residence (rural/urban). The dependent variable in this study is the duration of breastfeeding. Data processing and analysis was carried out using the Chi Square Test. Chi square test showed the value of p = 0.00 (p &lt;0.05). This shows that there is a significant difference between the duration of exclusive breastfeeding in urban and rural areas. There are differences in the demographic factors of rural (rural) and urban (urban) residence with the duration of exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months for infants.
