A survey of infant-feeding practices among 265 mothers of 12-week-old infants in a London borough showed that only 18 gave breast milk alone, 236 giving bottle feeds, and 197 solids. Serious mistakes in feed preparation were common, and only 51 mothers followed manufacturers' instructions exactly. Most mothers (239) had attended a well-baby clinic, but clinic staff gave conflicting advice on infant feeding. Health workers must pay greater attention to educating mothers on the details of infant feeding if the risks of hypernatraemia and obesity are to be reduced.
对伦敦一个行政区内265名12周大婴儿的母亲进行的一项婴儿喂养方式调查显示,只有18名母亲仅进行母乳喂养,236名使用奶瓶喂养,197名添加固体食物。喂养准备过程中的严重错误很常见,只有51名母亲完全遵循制造商的说明。大多数母亲(239名)曾去过母婴健康门诊,但门诊工作人员在婴儿喂养问题上给出的建议相互矛盾。如果要降低高钠血症和肥胖的风险,卫生工作者必须更加重视对母亲进行婴儿喂养细节方面的教育。
