PURPOSE: To evaluate the effectiveness of an interventional protocol for the
early initiation of breastfeeding that would remove barriers in the labor,
delivery, recovery (LDR) unit. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Descriptive design using
100 postpartum mothers who were interviewed before discharge at a large
university hospital in the south-central United States. Descriptive statistics were
used for analysis. RESULTS: The protocol was effective for initiating
breastfeeding, and breastfeeding increased from 53% to 66%. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS:
When barriers to breastfeeding are reduced in the LDR setting, women will
breastfeed. It is possible that reducing hospital barriers to breastfeeding in the
LDR can also set the stage for sustained breastfeeding during hospitalization
and for less supplementation with formula.
