From Medscape this morning...
The Effectiveness of Primary Care-Based Interventions to Promote
Breastfeeding: Systematic Evidence Review and Meta-Analysis for the US
Preventive Services Task Force
Educational programs were the most effective single intervention. One
woman would breast-feed for up to 3 months for every 3 to 5 women
attending breastfeeding educational programs. Future research and policy
should focus on translating these findings into more widespread practice
in diverse primary care settings.
