摘要

目的:本研究旨在确定在高收入国家巴林,母亲在生命的前六个月实行纯母乳喂养的患病率,并确定与纯母乳喂养相关的变量。方法:这项关于母乳喂养模式的横断面访谈研究于2019年1月至2019年6月在巴林国防军医院对345名Well Baby诊所的女性进行了定期育儿访问。符合条件的妇女至少有一个6个月至2岁的新生儿。采用卡方和多变量逻辑回归分析了纯母乳喂养和纯母乳喂养的患病率及其相关变量,并通过比值比(OR)和各自的95%置信区间(95%CI)进行了处理,但只有5.5%(95%CI:3.3%-8.5%)实行纯母乳喂养。多元logistic回归结果显示,20-24岁年龄组的女性不太可能进行母乳喂养(OR=0.399,95%CI:0.167-0.953,p<0.05),受教育程度较低(OR=0.388,95%CI:0.184-0.881,p<0.05)。此外,服用避孕药的母亲与母乳喂养无关(OR=1.926,95%CI:1.100-3.373,p<0.05),多变量分析显示,患有慢性病的母亲更有可能纯母乳喂养婴儿(OR=4.183,95%CI:1.138-15.378,p<0.05)。另一方面,没有触角护理的女性与纯母乳喂养之间存在显著关联(OR=3.951,95%CI:1.460-10.692,p<0.01)。此外,据母亲们报告,从未或完全母乳喂养的主要原因是母乳不足。此外,母乳喂养困难是不进行母乳喂养的另一个主要原因。结论:巴林纯母乳喂养的患病率很低。为了提高纯母乳喂养的普及率,必须实施教育计划、干预研究、协议和培训,以克服母亲在母乳喂养期间的挑战,从而提高纯母乳母乳喂养率。

Ever and Exclusive Breastfeeding Practice During the First Six Months of Infants' Life in Bahrain: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of mothers practicing ever and exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life in Bahrain, a high-income country, and determine the variables associated with ever and exclusive breastfeeding.

Methods: This cross-sectional interview study on breastfeeding patterns was conducted on 345 women attending the Well Baby Clinic during their regular childcare visits at the Bahrain Defense Force Hospital from January 2019 to June 2019. Eligible women had at least one newborn aged six months to two years. The prevalence of ever and exclusive breastfeeding and its associated variables were analyzed using Chi-square and multivariate logistic regression and addressed by the odds ratio (OR) and respective 95% confidence interval (95% CI).

Results: During the first six months of the infant's life, 56% (95% CI: 50.8%-61.5%) of mothers breastfed their infants, but only 5.5% (95% CI: 3.3%-8.5%) practiced exclusive breastfeeding. The multivariate logistic regression results showed that women were less likely to practice ever breastfeeding in the age group of 20-24 years (OR = 0.399, 95% CI: 0.167-0.953, p < 0.05) and had low education levels (OR = 0.388, 95% CI: 0.184-0.881, p < 0.05). Besides, mothers on contraceptives were not associated with ever breastfeeding (OR=1.926, 95% CI: 1.100-3.373, p < 0.05). Furthermore, the multivariate analysis revealed that mothers who had infants born with chronic disease were more likely to exclusively breastfed them (OR = 4.183, 95% CI: 1.138-15.378, p < 0.05). On the other hand, a significant association existed between women who did not have antennal care and exclusively breastfeeding (OR = 3.951, 95% CI: 1.460-10.692, p < 0.01). Furthermore, the main reason reported by mothers for not ever or exclusively breastfeeding was insufficient breast milk. Besides, difficulty during breastfeeding was another primary reason for not ever breastfeeding.

Conclusion: The prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding is very low in Bahrain. To increase the exclusive breastfeeding prevalence rate, education programs and intervention studies, protocols, and training on overcoming mothers' challenges during breastfeeding must be implemented to increase exclusive breastfeeding rates.
