abstract: 'Objective Despite numerous global initiatives on breast-feeding, trend
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
data show exclusive breast-feeding (EBF) rates have stagnated over the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
last two decades. The purpose of the present systematic review was to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
determine barriers to exclusive breast-feeding in twenty-five low- and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
middle-income countries and discuss implications for programmes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Design A search of Scopus, MEDLINE, CINAHL and PsychINFO was conducted
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to retrieve studies from January 2000 to October 2015. Using inclusion
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
criteria, we selected both qualitative and quantitative studies that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
described barriers to EBF.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting Low- and middle-income countries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Subjects Following application of systematic review criteria,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
forty-eight articles from fourteen countries were included in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
review.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results Sixteen barriers to EBF were identified in the review. There is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
moderate evidence of a negative association between maternal employment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and EBF practices. Studies that examined EBF barriers at childbirth and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the initial 24 h post-delivery found strong evidence that caesarean
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
section can impede EBF. There is moderate evidence for early initiation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of breast-feeding and likelihood of practising EBF. Breast-feeding
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
problems were commonly reported from cross-sectional or observational
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
studies. Counselling on EBF and the presence of family and/or community
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
support have demonstrated improvements in EBF.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusions Improving the counselling skills of health workers to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
address breast-feeding problems and increasing community support for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
breast-feeding are critical components of infant and young child feeding
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
programming, which will aid in attaining the 2025 World Health Assembly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
EBF targets. Legislation and regulations on marketing of breast-milk
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
substitutes, paid maternity leave and breast-feeding breaks for working
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mothers require attention in low- and middle-income countries.'
