Abstract

Objectives: to analyze the proportion of breastfeeding (BF) in patients under six months of age admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (UTP), to compare the type of BF offered at admission and at discharge and to verify, using quantitative and qualitative variables, groups with a higher proportion of early weaning. Method: retrospective and longitudinal study. Medical records of infants up to six months of age admitted between 2014 and 2016 to the PICU were consulted. The data collected were: the type of breastfeeding on admission and discharge of infants, data on the characterization of mothers and clinical data on patients. The data were submitted to descriptive statistics, with a significance level of 5%. Results: of the 104 medical records analyzed, 46.2% registered weaning on admission. At discharge, 13.6% of those admitted to exclusive breastfeeding were weaned. Conclusion: in patients admitted to the PICU from 2014 to 2016, the prevalence of
EBF (21.1%) was lower than the national indexes in the age group between zero and six months (45.7%), as well as the goals recommended by the WHO (above 50%). Hospitalization had a significant impact on breastfeeding, with a total of only 38 patients being discharged with some
type of breastfeeding. The following were significant for weaning: length of stay; formula offering days; and enteral catheter feeding.
