About

Although breastfeeding provides the infant with all the nutrients necessary for its development, it has been observed that in Panama there are low rates of Exclusive Breastfeeding. Educational interventions, that support exclusive breastfeeding, which begin before delivery and continue to the postnatal period, have been shown to be effective.

The main objective of the study is the development and testing of an educational intervention through web based platform, to support exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months. This educational intervention will provide guidance with the help of an audiovisual format, with information and breastfeeding techniques, which mothers can reproduce as many times as necessary.

The main objective of the study is the development and testing of an educational intervention through AmiHealth, to support exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months.

A pilot study will be conducted on a non-random convenience sample.
