Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To determine vitamin A content in breast milk and evaluate whether it satisfies the recommendations for infants. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Observational, prospective, cross sectional study. Milk samples were obtained between 30 and 90 days postpartum from mothers seen in public hospitals, and analyzed. Vitamin A concentration was determined by chromatography and its adequacy to the recommended dietary intake. The correlation between outcome measures was analyzed using Spearman's correlation coefficient. RESULTS:A total of 79 mothers participated. Vitamin A concentration in milk samples was 1.80 umol/L (1.36-2.30) and the mean breastfeeding time was 57 days. No significant correlation between breastfeeding days and vitamin A content was observed. In 50% of the samples, vitamin A content did not satisfy the recommendations for infants. CONCLUSION:Vitamin A content was not enough to satisfy the recommendations in half of the cases. OBJETIVO:Determinar el contenido de vitamina A en la leche materna y evaluar si cubre las recomendaciones para lactantes. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS:Estudio observacional, prospectivo, de corte transversal. Se analizaron muestras de leche de madres asistidas en el hospital público, obtenidas entre los 30 y los 90 días posparto. Se determinó la concentración de vitamina A por cromatografía y su adecuación a la ingesta dietética recomendada. Se utilizó el coeficiente de Spearman para estudiar la correlación entre variables. RESULTADOS:Participaron 79 madres. La concentración de vitamina A en las leches fue 1,80 µmol/L (1,36-2,30); el tiempo medio de lactancia, de 57 días. No se encontró correlación significativa entre días de lactancia y contenido de vitamina A. El contenido en 50% de las muestras no cubrió las recomendaciones de vitamina A para los lactantes. CONCLUSIÓN:El contenido de vitamina A fue insuficiente para cubrir las recomendaciones en la mitad de los casos.
