Abstract:
Objective To investigate the positive influence of telephone follow-up on primiparas′exclusive breastfeeding during puerperal period. Methods By using convenience sampling method, 90 primiparas were selected who had given birth in the integration ward of our hospital from October to December 2015 as the control group, and 60 primiparas were selected who had given birth in the integration ward of our hospital from December 2015 to January 2016 as the experimental group. For the experimental group, every 2 weeks, a telephone follow-up was executed according to primiparas′parturition time after leaving hospital. For the control group, telephone follow-up was not executed. The influence of periodic telephone follow-up on primiparas′ exclusive breastfeeding was observed. Results The exclusive breastfeeding rate of primiparas in the experimental group was increased as the telephone follow-up was executed. It was up to 91.7%(55/60) 6 weeks since parturition. The exclusive breastfeeding rate of primiparas in the control group was 71.1% (64/90). The difference was significant (χ2=9.28, P<0.01). Conclusions Periodic telephone follow- up according to necessity provides breastfeeding publicity and guidance after parturition, maintaining the continuous education and caring for the primiparas after leaving hospital which efficiently increased the pure breastfeeding rate of primiparas during puerperal period.
