Early initiation of breastfeeding (EIB) remains one the promising interventions for preventing neonatal and child deaths. EIB is positively associated with healthcare delivery or childbirth. Meanwhile, no study in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) appears to have investigated relationship between health facility EIB; thus, we assessed correlation EIB.

The World Health Organization (WHO) encourages breastfeeding to begin within the first hour after birth in order save children's lives. In Ethiopia, different studies are done on prevalence and determinants of initiation, up our knowledge, spatial distribution breast feeding initiation over time not investigated. Therefore, objectives this study were assess variation its determinant delayed Ethiopia using Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR).A cross-sectional was undertaken nationally representative 2016 Ethiopian Demographic Survey (EDHS) dataset. Global Moran's I statistic used measure whether dispersed, clustered, or randomly distributed area. Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression identify factors explaining geographic initiation. Besides, variability relationships between dependent selected predictors investigated geographically weighted regression.A total sample 4169 children aged 0 23 months included study.

Skin-to-skin contact and early initiation of breast feeding in Bangladesh: a cross-sectional study using MICS6, Bangladesh (2019) data

BMJ Paediatrics Open, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 7(1), P. e002163 - e002163

Published: Nov. 1, 2023

Background To curb neonatal deaths, practices such as skin-to-skin contact (SSC) and early initiation of breast feeding (EIBF) can play an important role. Despite being effective, globally only 48% newborns receive EIBF, SSC is practised at varying prevalence (1%–74%) among low-income middle-income countries. Objectives The objective the current study was to estimate level EIBF practice in Bangladesh examine factors associated with EIBF. Methods cross-sectional used data from Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey, (2019). Women reproductive age live birth during last 2 years were included analysis (n=8854). A p<0.05 considered statistically significant (significance α=0.05). Results 16.4% 70.4%, respectively.

Clustered multiple logistic regression multilevel mixed-model analyses performed to identify associated with initiation duration, respectively. Maternal lower education [Odds Ratio (OR): 2.29, 95% Confidence intervals (95% CI): 1.30−4.04; p = 0.004], smoking during pregnancy (OR: 3.08, CI: 1.64−5.77; < 0.001), caesarean section (OR 3.26, 1.83−5.83; prematurity 2.74, 1.40−5.37; 0.003) higher birth order 1.30, 1.04−1.62; 0.020) increased odds of initiating breastfeeding. Living in rural areas [beta coefficient b −27.93, 0.043], (b −64.47, −28.76, 0.046) −46.67, 0.048) significantly shorter duration.
