Background: The benefits of breast milk are greatly enhanced if breastfeeding starts within one hour after birth. Hunan milk contains a host of dynamic and unique feeding properties. Breast engorgement is one of the most common minor discomforts confronting nursing women after delivery, especially Primiparous. The aim of the study was to investigate the breastfeeding knowledge and practices among primiparous women with a cesarean section and its impact on breast engorgement in Upper Egypt. The study was conducted in the postnatal unit of Beni-Suef University Hospital. The study design was a descriptive study. The type of sample was a simple random sample. The study comprised 90 Primiparous cesarean section mothers; suffer from breast engorgement. Tools of Data Collection were interview questionnaire sheet, knowledge assessment sheet, observational checklist, and engorgement assessment scale. The study revealed that the studied women’s knowledge and technique of breastfeeding were not adequate among the whole study sample. Breast engorgement was more prevalent among the younger, less educated, housewives, low social class’s women and those who were rural dwellers. Recommendation: Providing the mother with guidance and support on positioning and latching and modification of hospital practices are effective in reducing breast problems.

Breast engorgement is а common issue affecting breastfeeding initiation and length. There are minimal options for relieving the pain associated with breast engorgement. Therefore, further study of strategies to achieve successful pain relief is crucial to promoting progress in breastfeeding. This study was conducted to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of compressed cold cabbage leaves versus hot compresses among postnatal mothers in relieving breast engorgement. Αn interventional quasi-experimental study design used to conduct this study. The study was carried out in the postnatal wards of Ismailia & port-Said general hospitals, and Suez Canal University Hospital. Α convenient sample study was 60 breast-engorgement postnatal mothers. Tools of data collection were; an interviewing questionnaire sheet included socio-demographic and obstetrical data, Visual Analogue Scale, and Six-point engorgement scale. The results showed that before the intervention, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups linked to breast engorgement symptoms & body temperature. But body temperature, scores of breast engorgement and pain were statistically significant differentiated between the two groups’ pre and post-intervention. Significant improvement in the breast engorgement and pain scales after the intervention was found, (p < 0.001). In conclusion, this study revealed that hot compresses and cabbage leaves compresses, as well, for relieving breast engorgement; are time-efficient and easy to perform. However, hot compresses are better than compresses of raw cabbage leaves to minimize discomfort among postnatal mothers and to alleviate breast engorgement. Additional randomized controlled trials with potential placebo treatment should be performed to elucidate the unspecific effects of the application of hot compress and cold Cabbage leaves.

One of common problems associated with breastfeeding is breast engorgement. This breast swelling can cause the mother to stop breastfeeding. This study aims to determine the effect of cabbage compresses on reducing breast engorgement in postpartum mothers at Kasih Ibu Primary Clinic in Deli Tua in 2019. The research used quasi-experimental, one-group pretest-posttest method design. The sampling technique used convenience sampling to recruit 30 postpartum mothers who had breast engorgement. The instrument used to measure breast swelling was the breast engorgement assessment scale of Hill and Hummenick which consisting of a scale of 1 to 6. Application of cabbage compresses was done by attaching cabbage to the breast until the cabbage withers. This procedure was repeated four times every 6 hours per day, for 2 days. The results of the study showed that at the time before being compressed all the research subjects had a score of 4. On the 1st day of compressing with cabbage leaves, there were 7 people (23.3%) who had decreased breast swelling and on the 2nd day of compressing, the total postpartum mothers experienced a decreased in breast engorgement was 9 people (30%). Statistical analysis by paired t-test obtained the value of p = 0.001 (p <0.05). Thus, the results of this study concluded that there was a significant influence of cabbage compresses to decrease breast engorgement of the postpartum mothers at Kasih Ibu Primary Clinic in Deli Tua in 2019.

Background: Breast engorgement is a common problem among postnatal women worldwide, some of whom use warm compresses to promote vasodilatation, improve circulation, and promote the amount of milk produced by the breasts. Conversely, the application of chilled cabbage leaves can reduce pain, the firmness of the engorged breasts, and prolong breastfeeding duration.Purpose: To examine the effect of warm compresses application as compared to chilled cabbage leaves for relieving breast engorgement and pain.Methods: Setting: The study was carried out at a postnatal ward and outpatient clinic at two hospitals in Menoufia Governorate, Egypt. Sampling: simple randomization technique was used to divide 100 post-natal women into two groups who received intervention with warm compresses (Group 1) and chilled cabbage leaves (Group 2). Instruments: Instrument I: interviewing questionnaire; Instrument II: six-points breast engorgement scale; and Instrument III: visual analog scale (VAS).Results: There was a highly statistically significant difference and improvement in terms of reduced engorgement and pain degree for both groups, with greater improvement was observed in Group 2 when compared to Group 1.Conclusions: Chilled cabbage leaves are effective in the treatment of breast engorgement and pain than warm compresses.Recommendations: The mothers should be advised to use chilled cabbage leaves as a home remedy to minimize breast engorment and promote comfort, further studies are recommended in this area in order to expand the evidence based approaches on management of breast engorgement.

Background: Breast engorgement is an uncomfortable and painful condition affecting a large slid of mothers in their early postpartum period. Several approaches have been explored for pharmacological or non-pharmacological interventions applied to the treatment of breast engorgement. Some of the non-medical interventions include Fenugreek seed poultice and cold cabbage leaves compresses. Aim: Study the impact of nursing intervention on relieves of breast engorgement among puerperal breastfeeding women and compare Fenugreek seed poultice versus could cabbage leaves compresses as two different nursing care approaches of on relieving of breast-engorgement.Methods: Setting: Postnatal unit and outpatient clinic of Beni-Suef and El-Fayoum University Hospital. Design: A quasi-experimental comparative study. Subjects: A purposive sample of a total of 100 puerperal mothers; 50 in the Fenugreek group \& 50 in the cold Cabbage group. Tools: A specialized designed structured interview schedule and Breast Engorgement Assessment Scale (Numerical rating scale, Modified Reeda Scale, Six-points engorgement scale, Fever Chart, and LATCH breastfeeding charting scale).Results: A significant improvement of breast condition after intervention for both groups regardless of the applied measure was found; however, the improvement was better and shorter time among Fenugreek group than Cabbage group (p < .05). Conclusions: For the management of breast engorgement, both Fenugreek seed poultice and cold Cabbage leaves were effective. However, Fenugreek seed was more highly effective where breast engorgement was alleviated in a shorter time than cold Cabbage leaves. Recommendations: Further randomized controlled trials with possible placebo treatment should be carried out to elucidate the non-specific effects of Fenugreek seed poultice and cold Cabbage leaves application.

Background: Many women in developed countries do not meet their breastfeeding goals and wean early because of breast pain. Objective: This study aimed to describe clinical response to therapeutic breast massage in lactation (TBML) in the management of engorgement, plugged ducts, and mastitis. Methods: Breastfeeding women presenting with engorgement, plugged ducts, or mastitis who received TBML as part of their treatment were enrolled (n = 42). Data collected at the initial visit included demographic, history, and exam data pre-TBML and post-TBML. Email surveys sent 2 days, 2 weeks, and 12 weeks following the initial visit assessed pain and breastfeeding complications. A nested case control of engorged mothers (n = 73) was separately enrolled to compare engorgement severity. Results: Reasons for the visit included engorgement (36%), plugged ducts (67%), and mastitis (29%). Cases, compared to controls, were significantly more likely to have severe engorgement (47% vs 7%, P < .001). Initial mean breast pain level among those receiving TBML was 6.4 out of 10. Following TBML, there was significant improvement in both breast (6.4 vs 2.8, P < .001) and nipple pain (4.6 vs 2.8, P = .013). All women reported immediate improvement in their pain level. At the 12-week survey, 65% found the massage treatment very helpful. The majority of the women with a new episode of mastitis or plugged duct during the study follow-up found the techniques learned during the office visit very helpful for home management of these episodes. Conclusion: In office, TBML is helpful for the reduction of acute breast pain associated with milk stasis. Mothers find TBML helpful both immediately in-office and for home management of future episodes.

Breast swelling occurs because breast milk is not sucked by the baby adequately, so therest of the milk is collected in the duct system that resulted in swelling and Asi Dam. Static bloodvessels and lymphs will result in increased intraductal pressure affecting the various segments ofthe breast, resulting in increased breast pressure. It can also occur due to a blockage in the milkducts.This study aims to determine the description of the causes of breast engorgement inPolindes Tunas Bunda Meddelan Village District Lenteng Sumenep Year 2015 The method used isdescriptive research method, that is to know the description of causes of breast engorgement inMeddelan village Lenteng District Sumenep Regency 2015.

BACKGROUND: Breast engorgement causes discomfort in the breastfeeding process. If untreated, it can make the baby reluctant to be breastfed. In turn, it may result in clogged milk which affects milk production and lead to mastitis/infection of the milk glands. AIM: The aim of the study was to know the effect of cabbage leaves compress on breast engorgement in postpartum mothers. METHODS: Pre-experimental was done with one group. The pre- and post-test design approach was applied. The population of this study is postpartum mothers who experienced breast engorgement. A consecutive sampling was employed as the sampling technique. The instruments to collect the data are using the observation sheet and breast engorgement rating scale based on Hill and Humenick ‘94. The data were then analyzed the Wilcoxon test. RESULTS: The majority of the characteristics of respondents who experience breast engorgement are postpartum mothers aged 20–35 years, with junior high school education, unemployed or housewives, and multiparous mothers. Before cabbage leaves compression, the majority of 29 mothers (96.7%) experienced engorgement on a scale of 3 and declined to a scale of 2 after the intervention. The result of the effect of cabbage leaves compress on breast engorgement in postpartum mothers was effective with a value of p = 0.000. CONCLUSION: There is a significant effect of cabbage leaves compress on breast engorgement for the postpartum mothers.

Clinical Issue
Health Canada recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months post birth and then the addition of complementary foods with breastfeeding extending to a minimum of two years. Breastfeeding initiation rates in Canada are currently at around 87% but, by one month, about 21% of women have stopped breastfeeding. Engorgement and edema in breast tissue can lead to breastfeeding challenges which may contribute to early weaning.
Purpose
The purpose of this pilot research study was to explore the relationship between intravenous (IV) fluids given to mothers during the peripartum period and postpartum breast or nipple swelling in the first ten days postpartum and determine if a larger study was warranted and feasible. The research question for this pilot study was, "What is the relationship between the amount of IV fluids given to labouring women and edema of the breast and areola complex experienced by breastfeeding women in the first 10 days postpartum?"
Methods
It is a prospective, longitudinal, observational cohort pilot study with repeated measures and a within-subjects design. Participants are first time mothers who planned to exclusively breastfeed and gave birth to a single, healthy newborn by means of a spontaneous vaginal birth, Mother and baby were discharged home together with no contraindications to exclusive unrestricted breastfeeding. Descriptive statistics are reported and linear regression analysis is used to model the relationship between IV therapy and postpartum breast edema.
Results
Women who received IV fluids during labour had higher levels of edema postpartum and rated their breasts as firmer as and more tender than women who did not receive IV fluids. Participants who had IV fluids appeared to be less aware of the fullness associated with lactogenesis II, and the pattern of fullness they described appeared to be related to edema noted. Participants who did not have IV fluids appeared to have unrelated patterns of fullness and edema, and therefore appeared more aware of the onset of lactogenesis II. The results support a larger study about the relationships between maternal perinatal IV fluids and breast or nipple changes.

Full textAbstract:
Breastfeeding is a complete nutrition for the baby and beneficial to the baby and the mother. Mothers should be prepared for breastfeeding and motivated antenatally. Breastfeeding should be initiated within 1 h of normal delivery and 4 h of Caesarean section. In the first 2 days, colostrum is secreted which is highly immunogenic to the baby. Mature milk comes by day 10 of life. Foremilk is rich in protein and vitamins, while hindmilk is rich in fat. Proper technique should be followed for successful breastfeeding. Reflexes in the mother while breastfeeding are prolactin and oxytocin reflexes, while reflexes in the baby are rooting, sucking and swallowing. In case of early discharge from the hospital, adequacy of breastfeeding should be checked at 3–5 days of life. Breastfeeding develops bonding between the baby and the mother and promotes brain growth of the baby. Human milk is suitable for the baby and contains less protein and minerals than cow’s milk and has less solute load for immature kidneys of the baby. Breastfeeding should be on demand, minimum eight times per day. The common feeding problems in the mother are flat or inverted nipple, sore nipple, engorgement of breasts, and mastitis which should be prevented.

Full textAbstract:
The Tractatus de passionibus mamillarum, a short treatise written in fifteenth-century Italy, details treatments for women who experienced painful breast engorgement while lactating. It is primarily a translation of a chapter concerning the breast taken from the Lilium medicine of the Montpellier physician, Bernard de Gordon. The author of the Tractatus, however, eliminates most of Bernard’s commentary. The treatments are simple combinations of herbs, minerals, and liquids meant to be applied to the skin as plasters or poultices. This essay contextualizes the Tractatus within the historiography and literature of breastfeeding and provides a brief transcription and translation of its original recipe. It argues that the Tractatus represents a ‘hybrid’ form of healthcare and body knowledge that bridged household and academy.
