Abstract

Mothers whose babies have problems and are cared for separately make mothers feel less confident about breastfeeding because they think about the health of their babies. Lack of confidence in breastfeeding is a factor in the failure to breastfeed. An instrument is needed to assess the breastfeeding process as a nurse's initial step to establish nursing interventions in nursing mothers. Objective: Apply the use of the LATCH instrument as an initial assessment of breastfeeding so that it can assist nurses in arranging nursing interventions. Methods: case study with implementation based on Evidence Based Nursing Practice: LATCH SCORE was applied to three nursing mothers in two hospital. Results: four breastfeeding mothers were assessed by LATCH SCORE and then intervention was carried out in the form of education and counseling for breastfeeding mothers. Conclusion: This intervention is very effective in assessing position and attachment during breastfeeding, thus helping nurses to tailor interventions according to the needs of the mother. Suggestion: it is hoped that the maternity nurse can carry out a LATCH SCORE assessment to assist in the assessment and arrange interventions according to the needs of nursing mothers.

使用哺乳评分作为母乳喂养评估和早期母乳喂养准备的有效性

如果婴儿出现问题并被单独照顾，母亲就会因为考虑到婴儿的健康而对母乳喂养缺乏信心。对母乳喂养缺乏信心是导致母乳喂养失败的一个因素。需要一种工具来评估母乳喂养过程，作为护士对哺乳期母亲进行护理干预的第一步。目标：使用 LATCH 工具对母乳喂养进行初步评估，以协助护士安排护理干预。方法：基于循证护理实践的案例研究与实施：将 LATCH SCORE 应用于两家医院的三位哺乳期母亲。结果：通过 LATCH SCORE 对四名哺乳期母亲进行评估，然后以教育和咨询的形式对哺乳期母亲进行干预。结论这项干预措施对于评估母乳喂养期间的体位和依恋情况非常有效，从而帮助护士根据母亲的需要采取针对性的干预措施。建议：希望产科护士能进行 LATCH SCORE 评估，以协助评估并根据哺乳母亲的需要安排干预措施。
