Title
Efficacy of different interventions to prevent nipple cracking among breastfeeding women: a network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
Review Question
To compare the efficacy of different interventions in the prevention of nipple cracking among breastfeeding women in order to better inform clinical practice.
Study Type Included
Randomized controlled trial only and studies using a uniform tool (Nipple Trauma Score) for the assessment of nipple cracking. Quasi-randomized trials will be excluded. Only randomized trials that are peer-reviewed and available in full-text will be eligible for the present systematic review.
Condition Being Studied
Breastfeeding has significant benefits for both mother and baby, and the WHO recommends exclusive breastfeeding until six months postpartum. Nipple cracking is a common complication in the first week postpartum, occurring between 29% and 76%, and can reduce breastfeeding satisfaction and even terminate breastfeeding. In addition, cracked nipples can cause bacteria to invade and multiply along the lymphatic vessels through the broken skin, which is the main cause of acute mastitis. Mothers should be educated early in the postpartum period to take measures to prevent the occurrence of cracked nipples to promote successful breastfeeding.
Participant
The inclusion criteria included the followings:1) postpartum women who is willing to participate; 2) exclusive breastfeeding; and 3) not using any ointments, oils, and or medications to the nipples. The exclusion criteria included the followings: 1) infants suffering from oral infections,tongue and tooth disorders; 2) using pacifiers, bottles, and plastic nipples for infants; 3) history of maternal psychological disorders reported by mothers; 4) the mother was diagnosed with abnormal nipple infections such as mastitis, abscesses or fungal infections of the breast; 5) mother or infant suffering from any nipple-irrelevant condition that lead to cessation of breastfeeding; and 6) mothers were allergic to the interventions in the study.
Animal
Human Disease Modelled
Intervention
We will include the following measures: Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), highly purified anhydrous (HPA) lanolin, peppermint (Mentha piperita) water, peppermint oil,dexpanthenol creams, mint bag,cabbage leaves , breast milk. We will include only studies in which participants are randomized to the intervention. We anticipate that any participants who meets all inclusion criteria could, in principal, be randomised to receive any of the interventions in the synthesis comparator set (assumption of transitivity).
Comparator Control
Each measure included in the list above.
Main Outcome
Effectiveness of nipple trauma prevention (as continuous outcome) - Response: Measured by mean and standard deviation at baseline, day 3, day 7, and day 14 according to the Nipple Trauma Scale.
Outcome Measure
Additional Outcome
Effectiveness of nipple pain prevention (as continuous outcome) - Response: Measured by mean and standard deviation at baseline, day 3, day 7, and day 14 according to the Visual Analogue Scale.
