Summary

This study tested whether a mobile app called Amamantapp could increase knowledge and positive attitudes about breast milk donation among new mothers in Peru. 112 breastfeeding mothers were randomly assigned to use the app for 60 days or to a control group. Researchers measured changes in knowledge, attitudes, and donation practices using a questionnaire. The goal is to address a shortage of donor milk that contributes to deaths of preterm babies.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
mobile app (Amamantapp) with educational modules on breast milk donation
What this could lead to
If it works, this app could increase the number of breast milk donors, helping to save preterm babies who urgently need donated milk.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial in one hospital in Peru, so results may not apply elsewhere. The app only measures changes in knowledge and attitudes, not actual donation rates or baby health outcomes.
