To evaluate the status of complementary feeding frequency (CFF) for infants and young children in southwestern China.
A total of 3644 infants and young children aged 6 - 24 months from urban and rural areas of Chengdu, Kunming and Guiyang were selected by stratified random cluster sampling from March to June in 2011. Data of CFF in the recent one month were collected through the questionnaires, and assessed quantitatively by a new comprehensive evaluation system. Level and distribution characteristics of CFF for infants and young children among different month groups in urban and rural areas were analyzed.
Average CFF score was 8.1 ± 3.1, and the score for all was 54.1% of total score (15 points). The average score of urban and rural groups was 8.9 ± 3.0 (59.3% of total score) and 7.4 ± 3.0 (49.1% of total score) respectively (t = 15.60, P < 0.05). Ratio of ≥ 80.0% of total CFF score was 12.2% (443/3644) for all. The rate of urban and rural group was 18.0% (324/1796) and 6.4% (119/1848) respectively (χ(2) = 136.64, P < 0.05). Average CFF score in 6 - 8, 9 - 11 and 12 - 24 months groups was 7.0 ± 2.9 (46.4% of total score), 8.1 ± 3.0 (54.1% of total score) and 9.0 ± 3.0 (60.1% of total score) respectively (F = 148.27, P < 0.05). The CFF score increased with months growing.
Status of CFF for infants and young children in southwestern China is generally inadequate, with differences between urban and rural groups. This problem is more serious in early month infants and rural areas and should be emphasized and improved.
评估中国西南部婴幼儿辅食添加频率（CFF）的状况。
2011年3月至6月，采用分层随机整群抽样方法，从成都、昆明和贵阳城乡选取3644名6 - 24个月的婴幼儿。通过问卷调查收集近一个月的CFF数据，并采用新的综合评价系统进行定量评估。分析城乡不同月龄组婴幼儿CFF的水平及分布特征。
CFF平均得分为8.1±3.1，占总分（15分）的54.1%。城乡组平均得分分别为8.9±3.0（占总分的59.3%）和7.4±3.0（占总分的49.1%）（t = 15.60，P < 0.05）。CFF总分≥80.0%的比例，总体为12.2%（443/3644）。城乡组比例分别为18.0%（324/1796）和6.4%（119/1848）（χ(2)=136.64，P < 0.05）。6 - 8个月、9 - 11个月和12 - 24个月组的CFF平均得分分别为7.0±2.9（占总分的46.4%）、8.1±3.0（占总分的54.1%）和9.0±3.0（占总分的60.1%）（F = 148.27，P < 0.05）。CFF得分随月龄增长而增加。
中国西南部婴幼儿CFF状况总体不足，城乡组存在差异。该问题在小月龄婴儿和农村地区更为严重，应予以重视并改善。
