1090/2012 - PREVALÊNCIA DE ALEITAMENTO MATERNO EXCLUSIVO E FATORES ASSOCIADOS: ESTUDO TRANSVERSAL COM MÃES ADOLESCENTES DE 14 A 16 ANOS EM PORTO ALEGRE, RS. PREVALENCE OF EXCLUSIVE BREASTFEEDING AND ASSOCIATED FACTORS: CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY WITH TEENAGE MOTHERS WITH 14 TO 16 YEARS OLD IN PORTO ALEGRE, RS.
Estudo transversal com objetivo de verificar a prevalência e os fatores associados ao aleitamento materno exclusivo (AME) em mães adolescentes de 14 a 16 anos cujos bebês de até seis meses nasceram em Porto Alegre/RS, no ano de 2009. A composição da amostra teve como base 50% dos nascidos vivos da população em estudo. Foram entrevistadas 341 mães adolescentes em seus domicílios. As variáveis investigadas como possíveis determinantes do AME foram: sócio-demográficas, de assistência pré e pós-natal, aspectos psicoemocionais maternos, condições de nascimento e características do bebê. As razões de prevalência (RP) foram obtidas por regressão de Poisson mediante análise hierarquizada. A prevalência de aleitamento materno exclusivo variou de 47,8% no primeiro mês de vida do bebê até 13,8% aos seis meses, diminuindo, em média, 24% a cada mês de vida (RP = 0,76; IC95%: 0,68-0,85). Além da idade do bebê, também estiveram associadas ao aleitamento materno exclusivo a escolaridade materna (RP = 1,53; IC95%: 1,18-1,98) e a multiparidade (RP = 1,57; IC95%: 1,02-2,46), esta última observada em apenas 4,7% da amostra. As mães adolescentes com maior escolaridade e que possuem filhos vivos de gestações anteriores apresentaram maior prevalência de aleitamento materno exclusivo.
This is a cross-sectional study to verify the prevalence and associated factors related to exclusive breastfeeding in teenage mothers who are 14 to 16 years old, with 6 months or younger babies, born in the city of Porto Alegre/RS- Brazil, in 2009. The sample was based on 50% of the newborn babies from the sudied population. A total of 341 teenage mothers were interviewed in their homes. The variables considered as potencial determinants of exclusive breastfeeding were: socio-demographic, pre and postnatal assistance, emotional aspects of the mother, birth condition and baby caractheristics. Prevalence ratios (PR) were estimated by Poisson regression by means of hierarchical analyses. Prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding ranged from 47,8% in the first month of life until 13,8% to six months and declined, on average, 24% for each month of the babies’ life (RP = 0,76; IC95%: 0,68-0,85). Besides baby’s age, the factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding were maternal education (PR=1,53; CI95%: 1,18-1,98) and multiparity (PR=1,57; CI95%:1,02-2,46), the last one observed in only 4,7% of the sample. Teenage mothers with higher schooling and with living children from other pregnancies presented higher prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding.

This is a cross-sectional study to verify the prevalence and associated factors related to exclusive breastfeeding in teenage mothers who are 14 to 16 years old, with 6 months or younger babies, born in the city of Porto Alegre/RS- Brazil, in 2009.
