0098/2023 - IMPLICAÇÕES DA PANDEMIA DA COVID-19 NO ALEITAMENTO MATERNO E NA PROMOÇÃO DA SAÚDE: PERCEPÇÕES DAS LACTANTES IMPLICATIONS OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON BREASTFEEDING AND HEALTH PROMOTION: PERCEPTIONS OF LACTATING WOMEN
Este artigo objetiva compreender as implicações da pandemia da Covid-19 na prática do aleitamento materno e as ações de promoção da saúde no âmbito da atenção básica, a partir da percepção das mulheres lactantes. Estudo qualitativo, desenvolvido com 24 mulheres que amamentaram durante o primeiro ano da pandemia. Os dados foram analisados a partir da Análise de Conteúdo e interpretados à luz da Teoria Interativa da Amamentação. A pandemia repercutiu em vulnerabilidade da saúde mental das lactantes, dificuldades para a continuidade do aleitamento materno e inserção precoce de fórmulas infantis, adoção de medidas de prevenção contra a Covid-19 no ato da amamentação e mudanças no trabalho das lactantes. Além disso, foram identificadas fragilidades nas ações de promoção da saúde e no apoio ao binômio mãe -filho, devido à interrupção das consultas de puericultura. Conclui-se que, embora a maioria das participantes do estudo tenha mantido o aleitamento materno exclusivo nos seis primeiros meses, as ações de promoção da saúde infantil na atenção básica foram insatisfatórias, podendo repercutir negativamente na morbimortalidade infantil.

Abstract:
This article aims to understand the implications of the Covid-19 pandemic on the practice of breastfeeding and health promotion actions within the scope of primary care,the perception of breastfeeding women. Qualitative study, developed with 24 women who breastfed during the first year of the pandemic. Data were analyzed using Content Analysis and interpreted in the light of the Interactive Theory of Breastfeeding. The pandemic had an impact on the vulnerability of the mental health of lactating women, difficulties for the continuity of breastfeeding and early ion of formulas, adoption of preventive measures against Covid-19 in the act of breastfeeding and changes in the work of breastfeeding women. In addition, weaknesses were identified in health promotion actions and in the support of the mother-child binomial, due to the interruption of childcare consultations. It is concluded that, although most of the study participants maintained exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months, the actions to promote child health in primary care were unsatisfactory, and could have a negative impact on child morbidity and mortality.
