          Abstract

          Abstract Objective Synthesize the information about the factors associated with maintenance of breastfeeding for 12 months or more. Data source A systematic review was conducted in the Pubmed/Medline, Scielo, and Lilacs databases, including articles published in Portuguese or English since 2004 on the factors associated with breastfeeding maintenance for at least 12 months; review articles and those with qualitative design were excluded. The factors were organized into four levels, according to the chronological proximity to the outcome: distal, distal intermediate, proximal intermediate, and proximal; nationality and place/area of residence were considered contextual factors. Summary of data 1174 articles were identified, of which 19 were included in this review, comprising seven cohort studies and 12 cross-sectional studies. A total of 39 of the 75 assessed factors were associated with the outcome at least once. The factors with the highest percentages of associations with maintenance of breastfeeding for 12 months or more, considering the number of times they were tested were: children whose parents are the caregivers (100%), none type of maternal exposure to smoke (54%), children and/or parents are immigrants/foreigners (50%), live in urban areas (42.9%), older maternal age (40%), married women (37.5%), higher level of maternal education (31.3%), greater parity (30.8%), and lower income (30%). Conclusions The maintenance of breastfeeding for 12 months or more is associated with multiple factors, emphasizing the contextual factors and those related to some maternal sociodemographic characteristics. Associations differ in effect and magnitude between the different populations studied.

          Resumo Objetivo Sintetizar as informações sobre os fatores associados à manutenção da amamentação por 12 meses ou mais. Fontes de dados Foi conduzida revisão sistemática nas bases de dados Pubmed/Medline, Scielo e Lilacs, inclusive artigos publicados em língua portuguesa ou inglesa desde 2004 sobre fatores associados à amamentação por, no mínimo, 12 meses. Excluíram-se artigos de revisão e com delineamento qualitativo. Os fatores foram organizados em quatro níveis de acordo com a proximidade cronológica com o desfecho: distal, intermediário distal, intermediário proximal e proximal; nacionalidade e local/área de residência foram considerados fatores contextuais. Síntese dos dados Identificaram-se 1.174 artigos, dos quais 19 foram selecionados para revisão, sete estudos de coorte e 12 transversais. Dos 75 fatores explorados, 39 mostraram-se associados ao desfecho ao menos uma vez. Os fatores com os maiores percentuais de associações com a manutenção da amamentação por 12 meses ou mais, considerando o número de vezes que foram testados, foram: filhos terem os pais como cuidadores (100%), algum tipo de exposição materna ao fumo (54%), crianças e/ou pais serem imigrantes/estrangeiros (50%), morar em zona urbana (42,9%), maior idade materna (40%), mãe ser casada (37,5%), maior escolaridade materna (31,3%), maior número de filhos (30,8%) e menor renda familiar (30%). Conclusões A manutenção da amamentação por 12 meses ou mais está associada a múltiplos fatores, com destaque para os fatores contextuais e os relacionados a algumas características sociodemográficas das mães. As associações diferem em efeito e magnitude entre as diferentes populações estudadas.

              Exclusive breastfeeding and associated factors among mothers in Debre Markos, Northwest Ethiopia: a cross-sectional study

              Background Exclusive breastfeeding is the most widely known and effective intervention for preventing early-childhood deaths. Optimum breastfeeding practices can prevent 1.4 million deaths worldwide among children under five every year. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding and associated factors among mothers who have an infant less than six months old in Debre Markos, Northwest Ethiopia. Methods A community based cross-sectional study was conducted from April 1 to 30, 2013. A simple random sampling technique was used from a list of all mothers who had an infant less than six months old obtained from the health extension workers (HEWs) registration book in all kebeles (neighbourhoods) of the city. A total of 423 mothers with infants less than six months old were included in this study. Data were collected using questionnaires administered at interview. Both bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were carried out to identify factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding. Results The prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding during the seven days before the survey was 60.8% (95% CI: 55.8%, 65.8%). Those mothers who were unemployed [AOR = 1.98 (1.21, 3.22)], received breastfeeding counseling during antenatal care (ANC) [AOR = 2.44 (1.53, 3.91)], received infant feeding counseling during postnatal care (PNC) [AOR = 5.03 (3.04, 8.31)], didn’t give prelacteal feeding [AOR = 3.44 (1.88, 6.33)] and had adequate knowledge about breastfeeding [AOR = 2.57 (1.57, 4.19)] were more likely to practice EBF than their counterparts. Conclusions Although the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding was lower in the study area than international recommendations, rates were higher than found in other studies. Recommendations for improving exclusive breastfeeding include better support for working mothers through extending maternal leave and establishing work-site day care centers for infants, expanding the urban health extension program so that more pregnant women and mothers can be taught about appropriate infant and young child feeding practices and how to express their milk, thereby increasing their breastfeeding knowledge.
