Sponsor: Carelon Research
Conditions: Congenital Heart Disease (CHD)
Interventions: Breastfeeding clinical practice guideline (CPG) for congenital heart disease (CHD)
Countries: United States
The primary objective of this study is to enhance the rates of direct breast feeding (DBF) among infants with congenital heart disease (CHD), and to gain insights into the implications of DBF on key metrics of child and parent well-being. A multicenter parallel cluster platform design will be employed. The intervention will be a multifaceted approach to enhance direct breastfeeding. Participating sites will be randomized into either intervention (strategies to enhance direct breastfeeding) or conventional care.
