Purpose : The current study was conducted to assess the impact of oketani technique versus lanoline on breast pain and milk production among puerperal women. Methods: A quasi-experimental design was employed . Study was done at Menoufia University Hospital in Shebin El-kom. A purposive sample containing 120 of women with painful nipples in early post-partum period. Instruments:A structured questionnaire sheet, factors affecting breast feeding assessment sheet were used to collect data. Results : Oketani breast message was similar in both IG and CG [7.5].While, breast pain was significantly alleviated to a mean value of 1.3±0.47 post-test2 in IG compared to (5.3±0.65) in CG.Also, IG resulted in significant higher amount of breast milk produced during post-test2 evaluation (314.9±13.5) compared to (174.1±6.8 in CG). Application of the technique in IG, resulted in significant higher sucking speed among women in post-test 2 evaluation (47.3±3.3) in IG compared to (28.2±5.2) in CG. Conclusion : These results suggest that Oketani breast massage is useful for reducing breast pain, boosting breast milk production, and quickening a newborn's sucking reflex. Recomendations :further studies related to oketani breast massage should be conducted in other settings and on a larger number of puerperal women to assure the generalizability of the research results.","PeriodicalId":106145,"journal":{"name":"Sohag Journal of Nursing Science","volume":"30 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140524845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
