The encounter with the rampant novel Corona virus infection has led the healthcare system across the world to update and modify its tools to fight this pandemic. Pregnancy, childbirth and breast feeding are a set of special situations to be dealt in women afflicted with Covid-19. Currently there is no universal consensus on managing the issue of breast feeding with rooming-in of the neonates in women with suspected or confirmed Covid-19. Literature is still evolving with contradictory guidelines from various authorities across the globe. This review intends to analyse the available evidence on managing breast feeding in such women and to derive a practically plausible approach in handling such situations.
新型冠状病毒感染的肆虐,促使全球医疗系统更新和调整抗击这一疫情的手段。怀孕、分娩及母乳喂养是感染新冠病毒的女性需要应对的一系列特殊情况。目前,对于疑似或确诊感染新冠病毒的女性在母婴同室时进行母乳喂养问题的管理,尚未达成普遍共识。全球各权威机构发布的指导方针相互矛盾,相关文献仍在不断完善。本综述旨在分析此类女性母乳喂养管理的现有证据,并得出应对此类情况切实可行的方法。
