Abstract

Aim: To investigate the effect of Humana Still-Tee, on weight gain during the newborn period. Method: Sixty-three mothers who gave birth in the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of our hospital were randomly enrolled to the study. The mothers were separated into three groups according to the recommended beverages: Group 1; Humana Still-Tee, group 2; Linden (Tilia silvestris) tea, and group 3; water. Results: The mean age of the mothers was 28+5.2 years. Of the mothers 42.9 % (n-27) were primary school grad¬uates, 22.2 % (n-14) were smokers, and 68.3 % (n-43) were of middle sociseconomic class. Of the babies 57.1 % (n=36) were girls with a mean birth weight of 3,240+425 g. The mean weight of the babies was 4,244+463 g at the end of the first month. Total weight gain of the babies in the Humana Still-Tee group (l,370±133 g) was significantly higher than those of Linden (835+128 g) and water (807+85 g) groups (p=0.001). Conclusions: Recommendation of a galactagogue herbal teas to nursing mothers may be useful in increasing breast milk, after consultation about adequate fluid intake during lactation. However, there is need for further investigations on this issue.

Özet

Amaç: Anne sütünü artırıcı Humana Still-Tee bitki çayının yenidoğan dönemindeki tartı alımı üzerine etkisinin araştırılması. Yöntem: Hastanemiz kadın doğum kliniğinde doğum yapan 63 anne rastgele yöntemle çalışmaya alındı. Anneler önerilen sıvıya göre üç gruba ayrıldı: Grup 1; Humana Still-Tee çayı, Grup 2; Linden {Tilia silvestris; Ihlamur) çayı ve Grup 3; su önerilen annelerden oluşuyordu. Bulgular: Tüm annelerin ortalama yaşı 28±5.2 yıl, % 42.9'u (n=27) ilkokul mezunu, % 22.2'si (n=14) sigara kullanıyor, % 68.3'ünde (n-43) sosyo-ekonomik düzey düşük veya orta düzeydeydi. Bebeklerin % 57.17 (n=36) kız, ortalama doğum ağırlığı 3,240+425 g idi. Humana Still-Tee grubundaki bebeklerin bir ayda aldığı tartının (1,370+133 g) ıhlamur (835+128 g) ve su grubuna (807+85 g) göre yüksek olduğu gözlendi (p=0.001). Sonuç: Emzirme eğitimi verilen annelere, anne sütünün artması için yeterli sıvı almaları gerektiği konusunda bilgi verildikten sonra galaktagog etkili bitki çayları da önerilebilir. Bununla birlikte, bu konuda daha geniş ve uzun süreli çalışmalara gereksinim olduğu düşüncesindeyiz.
