          Abstract

          RESUMO Objetivo: descrever o resultado da validação aparente e de conteúdo da tecnologia assistiva “Amamentação em ação”, junto a pessoas com deficiência visual de duas realidades, de Portugal e Brasil. Método: estudo de validação aparente fundamentado no modelo da psicometria composto dos polos teórico, empírico e analítico. Participaram, no Brasil, 19 pessoas com deficiência visual e em Portugal 21. O construto é a Tecnologia Assistiva em formato cordel, “Amamentação em Ação”, elaborada no Brasil e adaptada para aplicação também em Portugal. Para coleta, foi utilizado computador com sintetizador de voz e sistema de leitura de tela do computador para cegos. Para os itens de avaliação utilizou-se escala tipo Likert. Resultados: entre os participantes da América do Sul prevaleceram adultos jovens com escolaridade correspondente ao ensino fundamental e entre os europeus, idosos com ensino fundamental. Concernente à tecnologia propriamente dita, em todos os tópicos e itens houve excelentes avaliações com alguns tópicos analisados diferentemente nos dois países. Os participantes gostaram da Tecnologia Assistiva, mas para validar utilizando o sintetizador, precisou-se de tempo, e mesmo assim, muitas vezes, foi complexo. Alguns se recusaram a responder isto pode estar relacionado ainda à ausência da inclusão digital. Conclusão: concluiu-se que a tecnologia foi avaliada. A mesma foi bem-aceita e conclui-se que para pessoas com deficiência visual ainda são necessárias novas estratégias de inclusão, tanto na saúde como em outras áreas.

          ABSTRACT Objective: to describe the result of the apparent validation and content of the assistive technology “Breastfeeding in action”, with visually impaired people from two realities, Portugal and Brazil. Method: an apparent validation study based on the psychometric model composed of the theoretical, empirical and analytical poles. Participants were 19 people In Brazil and 21 people in Portugal with visual impairments. The construct is the Assistive Technology in a cordel format, “Breastfeeding in Action”, developed in Brazil and adapted for application in Portugal. For data collection, a computer with a voice synthesizer and computer screen reading system for the blind was used. For the evaluation items a Likert-type scale was used. Results: among the participants of South America, young adults with elementary education and among the Europeans, older adults with elementary education prevailed. Regarding the technology itself, in all topics and items there were excellent evaluations with some topics analyzed differently in the two countries. The participants liked the Assistive Technology, however, it took time for the validation using the synthesizer and, even then, it was often complex. The refusals to participate may have been related to the absence of digital inclusion. Conclusion: it was concluded that the technology was evaluated. It was well accepted and it was found that, for people with visual impairment, new inclusion strategies are still necessary, both in health and in other areas.

          Infant feeding practices and breastfeeding duration in Japan: A review

          The Japanese health system places great emphasis on healthy development. However, the prevalence of Exclusive Breastfeeding at one month postpartum between 1980 and 2005 has remained unchanged, fluctuating between 42% and 49%. At the same time, the Any Breastfeeding prevalence has gradually increased from about 80% to 95%. In 2010, the latest national breastfeeding report showed that ‘exclusive’ and ‘any’ breastfeeding rates have improved. However, as the World Health Organization (WHO) definition of breastfeeding practices was not used in this study or in other national surveys, it is difficult to interpret these latest results. While the Japanese government has launched several promotion projects, there have been few studies and reviews of risk factors that influence breastfeeding duration. The objectives of this review were to summarise the factors that have influenced the duration of breastfeeding in Japan to provide information relevant to breastfeeding promotion programs. A search of electronic databases in Japanese and English was undertaken up to 2011. The inclusion criteria for this review were studies that focused on infant feeding practices and targeted Japanese mothers, fathers, or health professionals, but excluded mothers’ friends and peer groups. In total, 12 articles were selected for the final analysis. Smoking status, low birth weight of infants and maternal perceptions of insufficient breast milk supply were negative influences on breastfeeding duration, while support from husbands/partners is associated with continued breastfeeding. Some factors that have been found to be associated with breastfeeding in other countries, including maternal age, family income, maternal educational levels, and living with grandparents of infants have not been confirmed in Japan. While the national breastfeeding rates were higher than other countries of similar health status, inconsistent knowledge of breastfeeding benefits and inappropriate hospital practices remain in Japan may be associated with increased the use of infant formula and reduced breastfeeding duration. Most of the studies reviewed were cross-sectional in design, with only a limited number of cohort studies. Also many published studies used small sample sizes. Cohort studies of infant feeding practices with larger sample sizes are required to monitor trends in rates and risk factors for breastfeeding outcomes.

            Determinants of the exclusive breastfeeding abandonment: psychosocial factors

            OBJECTIVE To assess the determinants of exclusive breastfeeding abandonment. METHODS Longitudinal study based on a birth cohort in Viçosa, MG, Southeastern Brazil. In 2011/2012, 168 new mothers accessing the public health network were followed. Three interviews, at 30, 60, and 120 days postpartum, with the new mothers were conducted. Exclusive breastfeeding abandonment was analyzed in the first, second, and fourth months after childbirth. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale was applied to identify depressive symptoms in the first and second meetings, with a score of ≥ 12 considered as the cutoff point. Socioeconomic, demographic, and obstetric variables were investigated, along with emotional conditions and the new mothers’ social network during pregnancy and the postpartum period. RESULTS The prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding abandonment at 30, 60, and 120 days postpartum was 53.6% (n = 90), 47.6% (n = 80), and 69.6% (n = 117), respectively, and its incidence in the fourth month compared with the first was 48.7%. Depressive symptoms and traumatic delivery were associated with exclusive breastfeeding abandonment in the second month after childbirth. In the fourth month, the following variables were significant: lower maternal education levels, lack of homeownership, returning to work, not receiving guidance on breastfeeding in the postpartum period, mother’s negative reaction to the news of pregnancy, and not receiving assistance from their partners for infant care. CONCLUSIONS Psychosocial and sociodemographic factors were strong predictors of early exclusive breastfeeding abandonment. Therefore, it is necessary to identify and provide early treatment to nursing mothers with depressive symptoms, decreasing the associated morbidity and promoting greater duration of exclusive breastfeeding. Support from health professionals, as well as that received at home and at work, can assist in this process.
