Peter Hartmann and his associates and students and the UWA are doing
incredible research which benefits us all in our efforts to help mothers with
evidence-based information and care. Yes, it is largely funded by Medela.
However, Dr. Hartmann has incredibly high standards and demands intellectual
honesty of all his associates and students. Knowing him personally and
professionally, I would trust anything that came out of his lab. ( BY the
way, I also trust Dr. Schanler, much research funded by Ross, who is a superb
researcher and just as honest.)
I agree that the Medela statements about the Calma teat go farther than the
current published research, but I have not seen the abstracts mentioned by
Dr. Fetherston. If they support the advertising claims, I would like to
see the references, even as abstracts from ISRHML, on the website. I do not
know if Dr. Hartmann has any say in the way Medela markets its products -
I would guess not.
