Öğe Comparing Methods of Umbilical Venous Catheter Placement in Preterm Infants: Evaluating the Efficacy of Revised Shukla and Ferrara Versus Dunn Techniques(Wiley, 2025) Say, Birgul Livaoglu; Pehlevan, Ozge Serce; Tugral, Okan[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Effectiveness of Combining LATCH and Bristol Breastfeeding Assessment Scales in Predicting Exclusive Breastfeeding(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2025) Say, Birgul Livaoglu; Kaya, Fatma Erva; Hatipoglu, Halil UgurBackground: Early identification of breastfeeding difficulties is crucial for targeted interventions. However, the comparative effectiveness of these assessment tools remains unclear. Objective: To compare the predictive validity of the LATCH and Bristol Breastfeeding Assessment Tool (BBAT) scores measured at 24 hours and day 7 postpartum for exclusive breastfeeding at 42 days and to evaluate their combined predictive performance. Methods: This prospective cohort study included 157 mother-infant dyads (September 2024-March 2025) at a university hospital in Turkey. LATCH and BBAT scores were assessed at 24 hours and on day 7 postpartum. The primary outcome was exclusive breastfeeding at 42 days. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to determine the optimal cut-off values and predictive performance. Results: The rate of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) was 83.4% (n = 132) in the first 24 hours and 68.8% (n = 108) on day 42 of life. The LATCH score in the first week showed the highest specificity for predicting EBF on day 42. (cut-off value >= 10: area under the curve [AUC] 0.671 (95% CI: 0.582-0.760; p < 0.001), sensitivity 55.6%, specificity 72.3%, false positive rate 27.7%). A multiple ROC analysis was conducted to determine which of the four scores was better at predicting EBF on the 42nd day. The cutoff values were 8 for the first-week Bristol score alone, 10 for the first-week LATCH score, 5 for the first 24-hour Bristol score, and 7 for the first 24-hour LATCH score. Conclusions: Combined early assessment using LATCH and BBAT scores provides a superior prediction of EBF at 42 days compared with single indicators. The implementation of systematic screening using these tools may facilitate targeted lactation support for at-risk dyads.Öğe Growth Velocity and Breastfeeding Rates of Preterm Infants After Hospital Discharge(Wiley, 2025) Say, Birgul Livaoglu; Demir, And; Akdag, Arzu; Uras, Nurdan[Abstract Not Available]
