Breast engorgement: contributing variables and variables amenable to nursing intervention
1St. Charles Hospital, Oregon, Ohio.
The focus of this study was to identify variables that correlate significantly with breast engorgement and that might be amenable to nursing interventions. Data on the initiation of feeding, frequency of feedings, feeding duration, rate of milk maturation, and supplementation were obtained of 54 women. These variables were found to be significantly correlated with breast engorgement.
