摘要

目的：调查中国新疆的纯母乳喂养时间及其影响因素。方法：队列研究。于2003至2004年，随机抽取在新疆乌鲁木齐市、石河子市、察布查尔县和裕民县分娩的1219名产妇。调查孩子出生时的喂养状况，并于产后0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5和 6个月随访婴儿的喂养状况。6个月前断奶的孩子随访到断奶为止。调查工具为测试合格的问卷。统计方法为生存分析。结果：新疆纯母乳喂养时间为1.8个月。不利于维持纯母乳喂养时间的因素为母亲上班和给孩子含空奶嘴，有利因素为姥姥有母乳喂养经历、产前决定纯母乳喂养。结论：中国新疆的纯母乳喂养时间比较短。根据本次研究筛检出的影响纯母乳喂养的因素，建议开展有关的健康教育，更正传统上不合理的喂养观念，从而延长该区的纯母乳喂养时间。

Objective: To document 'exclusive breastfeeding' duration and factors associated with duration in Xinjiang, PR China.Methods: A cohort of 1219 mothers in Xinjiang, PR China was recruited to study their infant feeding practices. The mothers who delivered babies during 2003 and 2004 were contacted in hospital and again at 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5 and 6 months postpartum, or until they ceased to breastfeed. Interviews were conducted using a structured questionnaire. Survival analysis was used to calculate the mean of 'exclusive breastfeeding' and explore factors affecting 'exclusive breastfeeding' duration.Results: The average 'exclusive breastfeeding' duration in Xinjiang was 1.8 months. Factors negatively associated with 'exclusive breastfeeding’ duration were mother's going to work and using pacifier. Factors positively associated with 'exclusive breastfeeding' duration were 'whether the maternal mother breastfed her children' and deciding 'exclusive breastfeeding' before delivery.Conclusions: 'Exclusive breastfeeding' duration in Xinjiang, PR China was short. The study identified some factors associated with 'exclusive breastfeeding' duration. The results suggested an education program aimed to correct traditional inappropriate breastfeeding perceptions and promote 'exclusive breastfeeding' in Xinjiang.
