As part of the Nutri Pou Ti'moun program, a study on breastfeeding practices was conducted in French Guiana in 2024 to assess the current state of affairs.
A complementary qualitative study of 15 mothers in situations of multidimensional vulnerability revealed barriers to exclusive breastfeeding, such as the perception of a lack of milk, the newborn's perceived refusal to breastfeed, or a lack of support from family and friends.
The findings of these 2 studies encourage the investigators to support mothers in their choice to breastfeed from the moment they give birth, so that infant feeding practices align more closely with national and international recommendations and are as beneficial as possible for the child's health.
The objective of this study is to compare the rate of exclusive breastfeeding at 1 month between women who received the intervention (exposed group) and those who did not (unexposed group).
The study hypothesis is that the health intervention will improve the rate of exclusive breastfeeding.
Read the detailed description
The first months of life are considered a critical period that has a lasting impact on a child's future health.
Breastfeeding is one of the fundamental factors contributing to healthy growth in children. Its benefits are well established in the literature in terms of preventing infections, reducing infant mortality, and supporting neurocognitive development.
As part of the Nutri Pou Ti'moun program, a study on breastfeeding practices was conducted in French Guiana in 2024 to assess the current state of affairs. Between March and October 2024, 382 mother-child pairs were included in this study. The results revealed that the majority of mothers had breastfed their children (91.6%) during the first year of life, but only 1 in 2 mothers had breastfed exclusively. Nearly 40% practiced mixed feeding upon discharge from the maternity ward. The study revealed that one in two women had received breastfeeding support from healthcare professionals at the maternity ward. This support tended to have a positive impact on the continuation of breastfeeding beyond 6 months. The use of formula milk supplements during the hospital stay, however, had a negative impact on the continuation of exclusive breastfeeding for at least 4 months.
A complementary qualitative study of 15 mothers in situations of multidimensional vulnerability revealed barriers to exclusive breastfeeding, such as the perception of a lack of milk, the newborn's perceived refusal to breastfeed, or a lack of support from family and friends.
These findings therefore encourage the investigators to support mothers in their choice to breastfeed from the moment they give birth, so that infant feeding practices align more closely with national and international recommendations and are as beneficial as possible for the child's health.
Furthermore, the sociodemographic characteristics of pregnant and breastfeeding women in French Guiana, as revealed by previous studies, highlight numerous vulnerabilities: one in three women experiences food insecurity during pregnancy; 12.5% of pregnancies occur before the age of 20 (compared to 1.3% in mainland France); 26% of pregnancies are not covered by PUMa, and 39% have a high multidimensional vulnerability index (compared to 5.3% in mainland France). Thus, the context of high vulnerability in perinatal care in French Guiana calls for the implementation of measures to combat social health inequalities. Health mediation is one such measure.
The investigators therefore propose the early integration of health mediation around childbirth in maternity wards.
The objective of this study is to compare the rate of exclusive breastfeeding at 1 month between women who received the intervention (exposed group) and those who did not (unexposed group).
The study hypothesis is that the health intervention will improve the rate of exclusive breastfeeding.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
postpartum breastfeeding support from a health mediatorOther
This pilot mediation program consists of the following activities:
- Supporting healthcare teams in providing postpartum care for women, particularly those in vulnerable situations.
- Providing in-room support to women to assist them with breastfeeding in collaboration with the healthcare teams. The content of the support is tailored to the woman's needs and follows national guidelines. This support may be provided multiple times during the hospital stay. This individual in-room support is provided at the request of the woman and/or the healthcare team. The initial request and the content of the intervention are recorded in the woman's electronic medical record.
- Participate weekly in the childbirth and parenting preparation workshop on breastfeeding, organized by the maternity ward and led by midwives and/or childcare assistants.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Breast Feeding, Exclusive, run by Centre Hospitalier de Cayenne at 1 site in French Guiana.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in French Guiana. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Célia BASURKO, MD (+594594395050, celia.basurko@ch-cayenne.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Rate of exclusive breastfeeding at 1 month postpartum in the group of women who received health mediation support (exposed group) and in the group of women who did not receive such support (unexposed group). (time frame: 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07806942, which also lists 10 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
