Study Summary

Racial disparities result in Black infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) receiving less breast milk (BM) than White and Hispanic infants.1 BM improves infant health yet mothers of critically ill infants produce insufficient amounts to provide these benefits which is likely due to inadequate daily breast pumping frequency. Black mothers face unique challenges to frequent breast pumping including returning to work earlier, working in facilities with inadequate lactation support, and limited privacy for breast pumping at home. Therefore, the objective of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility and potential benefits of using a discreet, hands-free, wearable breast pump with an associated App that tracks pumping frequency and BM production to increase lactation success in Black mothers of infants admitted to the NICU. Specific aims include (1) evaluate the feasibility of a discreet, hands-free, wearable pump in Black mothers of critically ill infants to increase pumping frequency and BM production and (2) assess whether results indicate a signal of effectiveness supporting a subsequent adequately powered randomized clinical trial (RCT). Following delivery, 40 Black mothers of critically ill infants will be randomized to one of two groups. Group 1 will be provided a discreet, hands-free, wearable breast pump with an associated App and Group 2 will be provided a standard mechanical breast pump with no associated App. Results will be used to revise the intervention and study processes and to estimate outcome measurement variability and effect sizes needed for sample size calculations for an adequately powered RCT.
