The Effect of Breastfeeding Promotion Program On The Primipara's Breastfeeding

The purpose of this study is to find out the effect of breastfeeding promotion program on the primipara's breastfeeding. This study used an quasi-experimental non-equivalent pretest-posttest design. The data were collected from 38 subjects from May 14 to October 15, 2005 at the obstetric care unit at A University Hospital in S city, Korea. 18 subjects were assigned to the experimental group and 20 subjects to the control group. Data collection was done by self-reporting method. To measure the breast-feeding practice, such tools as Breast-feeding method; Attitude toward breast-feeding; and Sustained practice of breast-feeding were used. The tool for Breast-feeding method was developed by the Jeong Geum-Hee(1997) using the AMIS(Assessment of Mother- Infant Sensitivity) by G.M. Price and other related references. The tool for Breast-feeding attitude was developed by the Jeong Geum-Hee(1997) using the literature in the journals between 1980 and 1995 including B.J. Cohler's MAS(Maternal Attitude Scale). Duration of breast-feeding was classified into 1 through 5 according to the WHO classification at the time point of 3weeks of postpartum. Data analysis was done using SPSS／Win version 12.0. The result of the analysis were as follows: 1. Hypothesis 'the experimental group with the breast-feeding education is more likely to have a higher score on the correct method of breast-feeding practice than that of the control group during the three weeks' was supported(t=-6.261, p=.000). 2. Hypothesis 'the experimental group with the breast-feeding education is more likely to have a higher score on the positive attitude toward breast-feeding than that of the control group three weeks postpartum' was supported(t=3.473, p=.001) 3. Hypothesis 'the experimental group with the breast-feeding education is more likely to have a higher rate of sustained practice of breast-feeding than that of the control group three weeks postpartum" was supported. The experimental group showed higher rate of the sustained practice of breast-feeding than that of the control group three weeks postpartum(x²=14.387.p=.000). As this study demonstrated the effect of the breast-feeding education which appropriately applied can be effective in promoting the breast-feeding practice for primiparas. It is therefore essential that the systemic, appropriate and continuous application of nursing intervention program in the hospital.
