Exploring the barriers to equitable access of digital health breast- and chest-feeding support
By Elena Bernardi.
Abstract
Background
The complexity of healthcare systems creates unique challenges for those seeking lactation support and threatens the universality of healthcare coverage. Digital health interventions present one solution to mitigating barriers observed with traditional in-person lactation support. The main objective of this study is to evaluate digital health interventions used for breast- and chest-feeding support among perinatal families and identify barriers to accessing these resources.
