贫困地区3岁以下农村留守儿童与非留守儿童喂养状况比较研究

A study on feeding status of left-behind children and non-left-behind children aged under 3 years in poverty rural areas

目的了解我国贫困地区3岁以下农村留守儿童与非留守儿童母乳喂养与辅食添加状况,为促进农村儿童科学喂养提供依据。方法选取中西部6省6县贫困地区3岁以下农村留守儿童和非留守儿童1 439例为研究对象,其中留守儿童940例,非留守儿童499例,采用面对面问卷调查的方式了解儿童母乳喂养和辅食添加情况。结果留守儿童6月龄内纯母乳喂养率低于非留守儿童,差异有统计学意义(P<0. 05)。留守儿童与非留守儿童6个月开始添加辅食的比例比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0. 05)。结论留守儿童6个月内纯母乳喂养率较低,留守儿童与非留守儿童过早或过晚添加辅食率较高,应加强贫困地区儿童,尤其是留守儿童母乳喂养与辅食添加的科学喂养指导。

Objective To understand the status of breastfeeding and complementary feeding of left-behind children and non-left-be-hind children under 3 years in poverty rural areas of China,and to provide evidence for the promotion of scientific feeding of poverty rural children.Methods 1 439 subjects were selected in poverty rural areas from 6 counties of 6 central and west provinces,including 940 left-behind children and 499 non-left-behind children aged under 3 years,through face-to-face questionnaire interview to guardians achieving the information on breastfeeding and complementary feeding of the children.Results The rate of exclusive breastfeeding in 6 months in left-behind children was lower than in non-left-behind children and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05)on the proportion of left-behind children and non-left-behind children of starting to add complementary foods from 6 month.Conclusion The rate of exclusive breastfeeding in 6 months of left-behind children is lower,and the rate of complementary feeding too early or too late for left-behind children and non-left behind children is high.Scientific feeding guidance should be strengthened for children in poverty rural areas,especially on exclusive breastfeeding in 6 months and complementary feeding for left-behind children.
