Breastfeeding Infants with CardioRespiratory Issues
Presented by Catherine Watson Genna, BS, IBCLC
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect. Cardiac and respiratory inefficiency complicate feeding for a significant minority of infants. Breastfeeding is generally easier for these infants than other feeding methods, especially if modifications are made to accomodate their reduced stamina and ability to manage flow. This presentation reviews the most common cardiac and respiratory issues in newborns and infants, along with research based strategies to preserve breastfeeding and educate parents about their baby's special feeding needs.
