Abstract:

Establishing successful breastfeeding in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is crucial for infant health but presents unique challenges due to prematurity, medical complications, and separation of the mother-infant dyad. This presentation, "From Bedside to Discharge: Achieving Breastfeeding Goals in Neonatal Intensive Care," will explore complex clinical scenarios and practical examples that illustrate the implementation of targeted, evidence-based lactation support protocols throughout the NICU stay.
