ANNE SÜTÜ VE COVID-19

Öz

Aralık 2019 başında Çin’de ortaya çıkan Yeni Korona Virüs salgını Mart 2020 tarihinde ülkemizde görülmeye başlandıktan sonra koruyucu sağlık hizmetlerinin önemi bir kez daha ortaya çıkmıştır. Olağanüstü koşullarda sağlığın korunması ve sürdürülmesinde anne sütü ile beslenme çok önemlidir. Bu salgın da bir olağanüstü durumdur. Enfeksiyonlardan korunmada anne sütünün anti-infektif ve immunmodülator etkisi öne çıkmaktadır. Anne sütü içeriğinde bulunan özellikle yüksek salgısal IgA ve diğer biyoaktif madddeler ile pasif doğal bağışıklık sağlanmaktadır. COVID-19 pandemisinin yaşandığı bu dönemde anne sütü ile beslenmenin sürdürülmesi ve desteklenmesi enfeksiyondan korunmak için gereklidir. Mevcut bilimsel verilere göre temas ya da enfeksiyon varlığında annenin maske takarak, gereken hijyen kurallarını sağlayarak emzirmeye ya da sağarak anne sütü vermeye devam etmesi önerilmektedir.

Öz

After the New Corona Virus epidemic emerged in China at the beginning of December 2019, authorities announced the appearance of cases in our country in March 2020. This epidemic reminds us of the importance of preventive healthcare. Breastfeeding is very important for child health. The anti-infective and immunomodulatory properties of breast milk play an important role in protection against infections. Passive immunity is provided especially by the high secretory IgA concentration and other antipathogen factors in breastmilk. During emergency situations, protection and promotion of breastfeeding is very important. The COVID-19 pandemic is also an emergency situation, and it is recommended that mothers should continue breastfeeding or giving expressed milk by wearing a mask, and taking necessary hygiene measurements during this epidemic.
