本研究的目的是确定影响希腊母乳喂养持续时间的因素。共有145名妇女在产后第三天接受了采访。妇女在产后三个月和六个月通过电话采访进行了随访。采用卡方检验和二项序贯Logistic回归分析进行统计学分析。这项研究的结果表明，爱婴医院、产前课程、母亲对自己成功母乳喂养婴儿能力的看法、母亲母乳喂养6个月或更长时间的意图、母亲和父亲的教育水平、补充食物或液体的引入、剖腹产、吸烟和种族与母乳喂养的持续时间显著相关。最后，额外的产前和产后框架是必要的。母亲对母乳喂养持续时间的预测是确定早期断奶可能性高的妇女的另一个工具。
The objective of this study is to determine the factors influencing breastfeeding duration in Greece. A total of 145 women were interviewed, on the third day post-partum. Women were followed up by telephone interviews at three and six months post-partum. Chi-square test and binomial sequential logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results from this study show that baby-friendly hospital, antenatal courses, mother's perception of her capability to successfully breastfeed her infant, mother's intention to breastfeed for a duration of six months or more, mother's and father's education level, introduction of complementary foods or fluids, caesarean delivery, smoking and ethnicity were significantly associated with the duration of breastfeeding. In conclusion, additional antenatal and postnatal framework is necessary. Mothers' prediction of the duration of breastfeeding is an additional tool for identification of women with a high probability for early weaning.
