Nikki, you had the % right, and it was flow, at least in this study:
From our local Medela rep:
<<I checked with our Clinical Resource Specialist and she sent the following
info:
Wooldridge, M. et.al. Effect of a traditional and a new nipple shield on
sucking patterns and milk flow. Early Human, Dec. 1980; 4:357-362.
Red rubber nipple shield reduced milk flow by 58%. Thin latex shield reduced
milk flow by 22%. Study observed only one feeding, so very limited study.
This info came from the BF Answer Book - revised edition - p. 566. There
might be more in the new edition of the BF Answer Book...apparently they have
a large section on nipple shields.>>
