Preventing Failure to Thrive in Breastfeeding Infants

Time-frame: 75-90 minutes
CERP: yes

Case studies of dyads affected by failure to thrive due to breastfeeding mismanagement or unrecognized risk factors provide the context for identifying gaps in health professional education. Recent research on how lactation works and the impact of various maternal and infant conditions is presented to allow physicians, NPs and PAs, nurses, midwives and lactation consultants to give safe, consistent information to breastfeeding mothers.
