Thematik

A medical doctor often encounters a pair of breastfeeding mother and breastfed baby in various ways during his carrier, since, apart from pediatricians and obstetricians, other medical doctors also operate on or pharmacologically treat breastfeeding mothers. Moreover, they sometimes visit the general practitioner with a breast inflammation, for example. The aim of the course is on one hand to provide information about the theoretical background of lactation, and on the other hand to review the development of the healthy baby/infant, and to demonstrate the relationship between delivery/puerperal stage and breastfeeding. During the talks, we will consider the pathological conditions that most often affect breastfeeding and infant nutrition, from the side of both the mother and the infant, based on the latest recommendations/lactation protocols. The talks will be enriched with communication-situation plays, case presentations, literature reviews, MediSkillsLab demonstrations that also play an essential role in understanding the psychological changes and the process of becoming a mother.
