"Background and Objectives: Providing pasteurized donor human milk (DHM) to healthy newborns is an emerging practice. The content of hospital policies that govern this practice is unknown.
Materials and Methods: We collected policies from 15 Northeast U.S. hospitals through (1) a 2017 survey on DHM use and (2) an e-mail listserv of levels 1 and 2 newborn care staff maintained by a regional milk bank. Two authors reviewed each policy and identified how they addressed three predetermined themes: who is eligible to receive DHM, how DHM is used and described, and how lactation is supported. Responses were compared, discussed, and reconciled. Level 1 newborn care was defined as basic care for healthy newborns ≥35 weeks' gestation." [extrait de l'article] |
