Complementing in-Person Breastfeeding Counseling: Telelactation

Öz

The World Health Organization (WHO) reports and actively promotes breastfeeding as optimal nutrition for infants. However, inadequate breastfeeding remains a public health problem. Breastfeeding counseling by midwives plays a vital role in providing education and support to mothers. Telelactation services initially aimed to increase the availability and timeliness of professional breastfeeding support, as well as to bring lactation consultants to communities in need. Literature reviews have shown that these interventions not only increase the number of women who initiate breastfeeding, but also improve breastfeeding outcomes. In the belief that quality breastfeeding counseling through telelactation is a promising complement to face-to-face counseling, this review was conducted to review the use and benefits of telelactation as a solution to barriers to breastfeeding.

Yüz Yüze Emzirme Danışmanlığının Tamamlayıcısı: Telelaktasyon

Öz

Dünya Sağlık Örgütü (DSÖ) emzirmeyi bebekler için en uygun beslenme olarak bildirmekte ve aktif olarak desteklemektedir. Buna karşın yetersiz emzirme bir halk sağlığı sorunu olmaya devam etmektedir. Ebelerin yapacağı emzirme danışmanlığı annelere eğitim ve destek sağlamada hayati bir rol oynamaktadır. Telelaktasyon hizmetleri başlangıçta profesyonel emzirme desteğinin uygunluğunu ve zamanındalığını artırmayı, aynı zamanda emzirme danışmanlarını ihtiyaç duyan topluluklara getirmeyi amaçlamıştır. Literatür taramaları, bu müdahalelerin emzirmeye başlayan kadınların sayısını artırmakla kalmayıp, aynı zamanda emzirme sonuçlarını da iyileştirdiğini ortaya koymuştur. Telelaktasyon yoluyla yapılan nitelikli emzirme danışmanlıklarının, yüz yüze rehberliğin umut verici bir tamamlayıcısı olacağı düşüncesiyle; bu derleme emzirmenin önündeki engellere çözüm önerisi olarak telelaktasyon hizmeti kullanımını ve faydalarını derlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır.
