Abstract

Background Breast milk contains many essential nutrition factorsbest for babies. The 1997 Indonesian Health Demography foundthat the proportion of exclusive breastfeeding was still low (52%)and increased to 55.1% in 2002. Due to increasing number ofworking mothers, promoting breast feeding among them should beperformed properly. There are no data on exclusive breastfeedingrate and pattern among working mothers in Indonesia.Objective To describe exclusive breastfeeding rate and patternamong working mothers in several areas in Jakarta and the influ-encing factors.Methods A descriptive study using a questionnaire was conductedfrom October 2005 to February 2006. Subjects were workingmothers who had 6 to 12 month old baby and breastfed and thebaby had no congenital or chronic disease.Results Among 290 mothers interviewed, 40% worked at banksor insurance business, 34% were private employees, 25% medicalstaffs, and 2% were teachers. Almost 80% have exclusivelybreastfed for less than 4 months, 17% for 4 months, and only 4%for 6 months. Maternal leave, family support, mothers’ knowl-edge, facilities at workplace, media influences, and working hoursseemed to have no relations to breastfeeding rate. There were122 (42%) mothers who had good knowledge about physiologyof lactation, 155 of them (53%) had fair knowledge, and only45% of them had poor knowledge.Conclusions The proportion of working mothers in several areasin Jakarta who have exclusively breastfed for 4 months is 17%, andonly 4% of subjects do exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months. Mostsubjects have a good to fair knowledge about the physiology oflactation but it does not seem to influence the decision to exclu-sively breastfed their babies.

Abstract

Cryotherapy and balloon dilatation are combined treatments for subglottic stenosis (SGS) in newborns. Cryotherapy involves freezing the affected area with extremely low temperatures, which can result in tissue destruction. Balloon dilatation is a technique in which a balloon is inflated in the narrow subglottic area to widen the airway. We reported a case of SGS in a neonate who was treated with a combination of cryotherapy and balloon dilatation to contribute to the growing body of evidence of the therapy and provide information for clinicians in the care of the vulnerable patients. A 22-day-old female baby, who weighed 2,600 gr at birth, was transferred to our hospital from another facility. We conducted cryotherapy on the granulation tissue area until it was released, then inflated the balloon for 5 cycles (30 sec each) with a pressure of 5-6 atm. After cryotherapy and balloon dilatation, the patient was examined using direct laryngoscopy, which revealed subglottic stenosis up to 9.5 cm from the outer border of the mouth. To maintain airway patency for the next 24 hr, the patient was intubated with an endotracheal tube number 3.5. The patient's condition improved after this intervention, and they no longer required oxygen therapy support. The patient was discharged without the need for supported oxygen. In conclusion, to manage the challenges associated with post-intubation subglottic stenosis (PI-SGS), a comprehensive approach that includes a reliable referral system, thorough bronchoscopy training, and a multi-disciplinary team is essential.
