Self-efficacy in nursing mothers of premature infants

Abstract
Breast milk is considered as the ideal food for newborns, including preterm babies, with nutritional, biological, emotional and socioeconomic benefits for the child and the family. For preterm babies, breastfeeding has an essential function because it is associated with the shortening of hospitalization time and various clinical conditions resulting from prematurity. Studies indicate a low breastfeeding rate among mothers of preterm babies and often early weaning. Currently, the literature identifies breastfeeding self-efficacy as an important variable that affects outcomes in breastfeeding success. To identify the main instrument dedicated to the assessment of preterm mothers’ breast feeding self-efficacy, an integrative literature review was conducted about studies, evaluations and instruments forassessing self-efficacyin breastfeeding mothers of preterm babies. Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale (BSES) was found to be the main instrument for assessing a mother’s confidence in her ability to breastfeed. For these mothers, the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form for Mothers of Ill or Preterm Infants (BSES-SFMIPI) was especially developed, enabling the recognition of maternal expectations and experiences, allowing the identification of mothers of preterm babies who are at risk of interrupting breastfeeding, and favoring the development of individual strategies to encourage and successfully breastfeed these babies.
