Abstract:
Exclusive breastfeeding for infants with working mothers still becomes a significant problem. The provision of on-site lactation rooms has not substantially impacted the utilization of lactation rooms. This study analyzes the factors that influence the utilization of breastfeeding rooms by health workers in all public health centers in Medan City. This study is a quantitative study using a cross-sectional design. The study involved 78 health workers who breastfed children under two years old. The determination of the sample used the total sampling technique. The results show knowledge (0.000), attitudes (0.002), practice (0.008), support from health workers (0.000), the availability of lactation rooms (0.000), and formula feeding (0.000) affect the utilization of breastfeeding rooms. The regression test results show that knowledge is the most influential factor in the utilization of the lactation room. Respondents with good knowledge have 9.477 times more opportunities to use the lactation room than respondents with poor knowledge. It can be concluded that the use of lactation rooms is influenced by factors such as knowledge, attitudes, practice, support from health workers, availability of lactation rooms, and formula feeding. It is recommended for local governments to provide adequate and comfortable facilities at each institution's offices to increase the utilization of breastfeeding rooms. The provision of a comfortable lactation room has implications for the mother's willingness to use the lactation room. However, it becomes difficult to realize without the support of colleagues.

Abstract:
ObjectiveThere is a need to support healthcare providers, including physician-mothers at all training levels, related to breastfeeding and expressing breast milk. This study was designed to understand the attitudes and preferences of lactating employees regarding current lactation resources at an academic medical center.MethodsCross-sectional survey. Respondents reported their satisfaction with current lactation resources on scale of 0 [complete dissatisfaction] to 100 [complete satisfaction]. Respondents were asked to identify greatest priorities for improvements to existing lactation spaces.Results304 (34.2%) respondents, of whom 69.3% anticipated using a lactation room in the next 5 years. Satisfaction with the current status of lactation rooms was low (mean score 37.8; SD 25.3). Accessible and proximal lactation spaces were highest priorities. More than 50% of respondents indicated daily use of a “nontraditional” lactation space.ConclusionThis study demonstrates the current state of healthcare providers' lactation-related experiences and highlights priorities for improvement, particularly provision of adequate lactation spaces.

Abstract:
Dedicated lactation rooms are a modern development as mothers return to work while still providing breastmilk to their absent infants. This study describes the built environment microbiome of lactation rooms and daycares, and explores the influence of temperature and humidity on the microbiome of lactation rooms. Sterile swabs were used to collect samples from five different sites in lactation rooms at University of California, Davis and from five different sites in daycares located in Davis, California. DNA from the swabs was extracted and the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene was sequenced using Illumina MiSeq. Temperature and relative humidity data were collected on a subset of the lactation rooms. Sampled lactation rooms could be either dedicated lactation rooms or could also serve other functions (e.g., combined lactation room and restroom lounge). The majority of sequence reads were identified as belonging to family Moraxellaceae, with 73% of all reads included in analysis identified as an unknown species of Acinetobacter. Alpha diversity was analyzed using the Shannon index, while beta diversity was analyzed using unweighted and weighted UniFrac distance. The Jaccard distance was used to measure amount of change at sampling locations between time points for analysis of the impact of temperature and humidity on the microbiome. There were significant differences in the beta diversity of the microbiome of lactation rooms by room type. There were also significant differences in the beta diversity of the microbiome by sample collection location. There were no significant differences in either alpha or beta diversity associated with room temperature or humidity. Additional studies are needed to understand if the differences in lactation room type may result in differences in the breastmilk microbiome of milk collected in those rooms, and to what extent any such differences may influence the infant microbiome.

Abstract:
A lactation room is a vital facility used to support the smooth running of activities in public spaces for women, especially for nursing mothers. The lactation room is usually used by mothers to breastfeed their children privately in public spaces. This study aims to determine the ergonomics and standards of lactation rooms in public facilities in Surakarta-Indonesia. This study was used to determine whether nursing mothers experience difficulties, easiness, or convenience when using these facilities. Ergonomic measurement is essential to see whether the object follows the users' dimensions, especially mothers and their babies. The object of this research is the lactation rooms located in several general hospitals in Surakarta. The method used is descriptive with a qualitative approach supported by quantitative data, or in other words, a dual research strategy, which is the use of multiple methods in solving a research problem. The quantitative here use numerical data, which results from field measurements, then compared with referred references, resource persons, and analyzed based on the researchers' interpretation. This research's results were in lactation rooms in terms of ergonomics/anthropometry and lactation room standards. Moreover, this also serves as an input to stakeholders to provide good public facilities following ergonomic lactation rooms to function optimally. These beginner research results are also expected to enrich learning sources related to Ergonomics, Interior Design, and Furniture in Interior Design Study Program ISI Surakarta.

Abstract:
Return to work negatively affects the initiation and duration of breastfeeding. Our study’s objective was to assess the percentage of departments in Auvergne with an appropriate space for pumping milk at work. Our cross-sectional survey investigated the arrangements for facilitating the continuation of breastfeeding on return to work at all departments at the Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital Center and perinatal (obstetric and pediatric) departments in this region. Our principal endpoint was the percentage of departments reporting that they had a lactation room—a room where nursing mothers can express milk—and whether it met the criteria defined by the French Labor Code. Among 98 respondents, 44 departments (44.9%) did not offer lactation rooms; of the remaining 54 departments, only 11 rooms met the legal requirements. All perinatal departments offered lactation rooms. The availability of a lactation room was associated with other breastfeeding support, such as a break period for expressing milk (p < 0.0001) and the availability of a refrigerator to store it (p = 0.01). Almost half the responding departments did not offer a lactation room where mothers could breastfeed or pump their milk. Measures must be envisioned to facilitate the pumping of breast milk by French women returning to work.

Abstract:
11054 Background: Training and early career years coincide with childbearing and raising young families, which places increased demands on new parents. With increasing numbers of female oncologists in the workforce, there is a need to assess and amend current workplace lactation policies. We surveyed Medical and Radiation Oncology trainees and early career faculty to assess policies and practices regarding lactation during training and early career. Methods: An anonymous 48 question cross-sectional survey developed by researchers with expertise in gender equity was distributed via email and social media channels between May and June 2021 to oncology trainees and physicians within 5 years of terminal training; program directors (PDs) were surveyed separately. Descriptive statistics were used. Results: Of the 255 complete responses, 26% (65) respondents breastfed for any length of time upon return to work. Of these, 54% (35) were trainees and 46% (30) early career faculty. 69% (45) had access to a designated lactation room; however, 57% (37) noted that duration of their pumping breaks was inadequate to access and use the lactation room. Most (60%, 39) did not feel comfortable asking for protected time to pump. Employment contracts did not specifically include pumping breaks for 66% (43), while 34% (22) were unsure about their contract policies surrounding lactation. Of all breastfeeding mothers, 77% (50) felt their colleagues to be supportive of their needs; a minority reported negative responses due to pumping breaks from faculty (11%), co-fellows/colleagues (8%) and clinic staff (15%). 51% (33) bought a wearable pump prior to return to work, of which 70% (23) found it financially burdensome. Most common reasons for buying a wearable pump were to improve efficiency during work hours (61%, 20) and lack of adequate pumping breaks (39%, 13). Among 23 PDs who responded to the survey, 65% (15) had a program policy regarding lactating trainees, 9% (2) blocked clinic appointments to allow pumping breaks, 91% (21) provided lactation rooms, 83% (19) reported the lactation rooms are easily accessible. Conclusions: Both infrastructure and time accommodations made for the lactating parent are inadequate. There is a disconnect between the trainee and PDs’ perception of provided accommodations. Systemic changes that provide adequate time and space for lactation to busy clinicians and trainees is imperative to ensure retention of women oncologists in the workforce.

Abstract:
Exclusive breastfeeding among employed mothers in Malaysia remains low despite numerous health benefits to mothers and children. Inadequate provision of a lactation room at the workplace contributed to the low rate of exclusive breastfeeding among working mothers. The objective of this paper is to identify the design gaps in the lactation room at the workplace in Selangor. The results suggest that adopting the first step of the user-centred design (UCD) method enables the identification of design gaps in the lactation room: location, room size, allocation of table and chair, milk storage, sink, and additional storage facilities.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background Many female residents choose to start families during training, and they want to breastfeed their infants. Continuing lactation while balancing service and education demands can be challenging. Objective We hypothesized that the presence of a dedicated and fully equipped lactation room with a hospital-grade pump (HGP) would increase ease and efficiency of lactation during residency. Methods A quiet HGP was purchased for resident use, and it was stored in a designated room with a computer, telephone, and dictation system. Lactating residents provided information about pumping time and production using their own portable double electric pump (PP) versus the HGP based on the first pump of the morning (for consistency), averaged over the first month back from maternity leave. Results Among 6 residents, lactation time with PP averaged 24 minutes (range, 15–40 minutes) versus 15.5 minutes with HGP (range, 10–32 minutes). Use of the HGP reduced total pumping time by 8.5 minutes (95% confidence interval 3.8–12.2, P = .045). Production volume increased from 6 ounces (range, 3.5–8.5 ounces) with PP to 8.8 ounces (range, 8–11 ounces) with HGP, for a mean increase of 2.8 ounces (95% confidence interval 1.2–4.3, P = .06) despite decreased lactation time. Conclusions In our pilot, an HGP significantly decreased lactation time, while increasing expressed milk volume. Residents completed clinical and educational tasks while pumping. Providing an HGP and equipped lactation space helped residents continue breastfeeding and decreased the burden of lactation on patient care and educational tasks.

Abstract:
Objective: The present study aims to examine the influence of environmental color hue in a lactation room at a health center on users’ affective response and preference. Background: Hospital design plays an important role in the emotional experience of patients. In this regard, many studies have attempted to find relationships between design variables and healthcare facilities users’ response. Color has been frequently examined because it is always present in the environment and can be easily changed. However, most of the studies dealing with color–emotion relationships acquire users’ affective response by questionnaires developed by experts which could lead to inaccurate results since nonexperts may misunderstand concepts set by experts and use nonimmersive images to simulate the environments to assess. Methods: To overcome these limitations, a Kansei Engineering–based approach was proposed. In the first phase, users’ specific affective factors for lactation rooms were determined using Semantic Differential. In the second phase, the influence of nine different color hues on users’ affective factors was obtained. An immersive display system was used to visualize the room altering hues in an isolated and controlled way. Results: (1) Six user’s affective factors connected to the lactation rooms were discovered: safety, elegance, coziness, spaciousness, simplicity, and luminosity, of which coziness has the most impact on the assessment of the room. (2) Warm colors like orange and yellow tend to score highly for coziness which puts them in leading positions when users’ assess lactation rooms. Conclusions: Results provide recommendations for designers and show the advantages of using semantic differential and immersive displays to analyze user’s affective response to environments.

Abstract:
ABSTRAKTantangan dalam pemberian ASI salah satunya dihadapi oleh para ibu bekerja yang merasa kesulitan untuk memberikan ASI maupun memerah ASI pada waktu kerja, baik dikarenakan tidak adanya fasilitas, cuti melahirkan yang tidak fleksibel sampai tidak diberikannya kesempatan menyusui. Pada tahun 2013 telah diterbitkan Peraturan Menteri Kesehatan (Permenkes) nomor 15 tahun 2013 tentang tata acara penyediaan fasilitas khusus menyusui atau memerah air susu ibu seperti ruang laktasi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui tingkat pengetahuan dan persepsi Wanita Usia Subur (WUS) yang bekerja terhadap ruang laktasi di instansi pemerintah wilayah Kota Denpasar tahun 2017. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kuantitatif dengan rancangan cross-sectional. Sampel penelitian adalah 79 WUS yang bekerja. Pemilihan tempat kerja yaitu instansi pemerintah yang memiliki ruang laktasi di Wilayah Kota Denpasar dan pemilihan sampel secara stratified proportional random sampling. Pengumpulan data pengetahuan dan persepsi dilakukan dengan menggunakan kuesioner dan data dianalisis secara deskriptif. Hasil penelitian didapatkan 72,2% WUS memiliki pengetahuan baik, 27,8% memiliki pengetahuan cukup, dan tidak ada yang memiliki pengetahuan kurang. Untuk persepsi terhadap ruang laktasi didapatkan 64,6% WUS memiliki persepsi baik dan 35,4% memiliki persepsi kurang baik. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa sebagian besar WUS memiliki tingkat pengetahuan baik serta lebih dari setengah memiliki persepsi yang baik terhadap ruang laktasi. Disarankan agar menyediakan ruang laktasi sesuai dengan ketentuan serta mendukung ruang laktasi tersebut dengan meningkatkan peran tenaga kesehatan dan atasan tempat bekerja agar lebih mensosialisasikan pemanfaatan ruang laktasi.Kata Kunci: awareness, perception, lactation room, reproductive age women ABSTRACTWorking mothers faces challenges to provide exclusive breastfeedings due to limited facility to breastfed or to express breast milk within working hours, inflexible maternity leave and no breastfeeding time within working hours. In 2013, the Ministry of Health (MoH) adopted MoH regulation (Permenkes) No 15/2013 about standard procedure to provide breastfeeding or expressing breast milk facility, such those called as “ruang laktasi”/lactation room. This study aims to explore awareness and perception of reproductive age working women (WUS) on lactation room at governments institution in City of Denpasar in 2017. This was a descriptive quantitative study with cross-sectional design. Study sample were 79 WUS. Working places included on the study were those that have lactation room and samples were selected by stratified random sampling. Data on awareness and perception were collected using questionnaire and analysed with descriptive analysis. From the study, 72.2% WUS have good awareness, 27.8% have moderate awareness and none with low awareness. For the perception on lactation room, 64.6% WUS have good perception and 35.4% have lower perception on lactation room. It can be concluded that the majority of working women have good awareness, and more than half have good perception on lactation room. It is recommended to provide lactation room and to support improvement of lactation room by improving role of health workers and supervisors at work places to extend socialization of the lactation room.Keywords: pengetahuan, persepsi, ruang laktasi, WUS

Abstract:
The hypothalamic-pituitary complex represents the core of the neuroendocrine system. The hypothalamus is composed of a diversity of neurosecretory cells arranged in groups, which secrete their products either into the portal blood system that connects the hypothalamus to the adenohypophysis (see later) or directly into the general circulation after storage in the neurohypophysis (see Chapter 6). Because of the nature of their actions, the hypothalamic hormones are classified as releasing or inhibiting hormones. The hypothalamic hormones delivered to the portal blood system are transported to the adenohypophysis, where they stimulate or inhibit the synthesis and secretion of different trophic hormones. In turn, these hormones regulate gonadal, thyroid, and adrenal function, in addition to lactation, bodily growth, and somatic development. No attempt will be made in this chapter to cover the actions of the different pituitary trophic hormones on their target glands, because they are discussed in detail in other chapters. An exception to this is growth hormone (GH). Although Chapter 11 considers several aspects of the control and actions of GH, a broader discussion of its physiological actions will be presented here because GH is the only anterior pituitary hormone that does not have a clear-cut target gland. The pituitary gland has two parts: the neurohypophysis, of neural origin (see Chapter 6), and the adenohypophysis, of ectodermal origin. In embryonic development, an evagination from the roof of the pharynx pushes dorsally to reach a ventrally directed evagination from the base of the diencephalon. The dorsally projecting evagination, known as Rathke’s pouch , forms the adenohypophysis, whereas the ventrally directed evagination of neural tissue forms the neurohypophysis. The neurohypophysis has three parts: the median eminence, the infundibular stem, and the neural lobe itself. The median eminence represents the intrahypothalamic portion and lies just ventral to the floor of the third ventricle protruding slightly in the midline. The main part of the neurohypophysis, the neural lobe, is connected to the median eminence by the infundibular stem.

Abstract:
The purpose of the research was to determine and monitor the influence of E-Selen supliment on the antioxidant status of Flecvieh cows during the transition and early lactation period as well as all changes during this period. Determined parameters were GSH-Px; TAC; ROM; MAS. Most significant changes was observed in TAC and GSH-Px. Total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in the plasma during transition period in the experimental group is characterized by an increase in its value, compared to antepartum, and in the control group by a decrease; and maintaining higher values compared to the control group in the postpartum period. Results obtained in the dynamics of (GSH-Px) in plasma, characterized by maintaining a higher level in the experimental group compared to the control group, beginning with 20 days antepartum and ending 30 days p/p. Balance of antioxidant status during the transition and onset of lactation is of major importance for the state of metabolic health in highly productive milk cows. Administration of the E-Selen supplement to cows, 30 days before parturition, had an influence on antioxidant status indices, expressed by maintaining their positive dynamics compared to control group.
