Effect of early breast feeding on pain perception in women undergoing spinal anaesthesia for caesarean delivery: a comparative study.
Abstract
Postoperative pain reduction is a key priority after caesarean delivery. Current recommendations are to breastfeed the baby as soon as possible after birth, including after caesarean section. However, analgesics can transfer into breast milk, and hence an ideal scenario is a postoperative period free from analgesics and pain. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of early breastfeeding on pain perception after caesarean delivery with spinal anaesthesia in the Gaza Strip.
