Lactancia materna exclusiva. Analisis comparativo. Exclusive breast feeding. Comparative analysis
Abstract
Se realizó una investigación longitudinal de carácter retrospectivo realizada en 24 consultorios pertenecientes al área urbana del Policlínico Docente "Turcios Lima" del municipio Pinar del Río, cuyo objetivo fundamental fue analizar de forma comparativa el comportamiento de la lactancia materna exclusiva durante los años 1993 y 1994. Se pudo comprobar que el comportamiento de la lactancia materna exclusiva fue diferente en ambos años demostrándose que en el 1994 existió un 54.8% de niños que recibieron lactancia materna exclusiva hasta el cuarto mes. Se evidencio que en ambos años los niños con mayor tendencia a enfermarse por infección respiratoria aguda y enfermedades diarreicas agudas fueron aquellos que no se le ofreció por tiempo suficiente la alimentación materna de forma exclusiva. Con relación pondoestatural de los niños al an'o de vida se demostró asociación entre esta y el tiempo de lactancia en el an'o 1994. Los resultados fueron vertidos en cuadros de contingencia para su ulterior análisis, utilizándose el estadígrafo chi cuadrado con su nivel de significación del 95%.
