Background: Nursery education is crucial for postnatal maternal breastfeeding. The objective of this study was to compare the correctness between individual teaching with and without video demonstration of maternal breastfeeding in the sitting position. Methods: Pregnant women who were admitted to our ward and willing to breastfeed were enrolled. Those with postnatal complications were excluded. Maternal breastfeeding in the sitting position was individually taught by nurses with and without video demonstration. An observation sheet was used to record the correctness and times of nursery education. The women in the control group received individual teaching by nurses, and those in the intervention group received video demonstration in addition to individual teaching. Results: Between January and July 2014, a total of 40 women in a control group and 32 women in an intervention group were assessed. The results showed that the correctness of the intervention group was not superior to that of the control group. In addition, the duration of nursery education in the intervention group did not decrease. Conclusions: In this study, individual teaching by nurses could not be replaced by video demonstration during operational health education. The result of our study might provide reference for other hospitals planning postnatal breastfeeding education and increase the rate of prolonged breastfeeding. |
