Pijat Oksitosin Berperan Memperlancar Pengeluaran Air Susu pada Ibu Postpartum Primipara
Abstract
The balance of nutrients in breast milk is very rich in nutrients that accelerate the growth of brain cells and the development of the nervous system. Oxytocin massage is a solution to overcome the uneven volume of breast milk. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of oxytocin massage on the volume of breast milk in primiparous post partum mothers at the Midwife Helen's Maternity Clinic, Medan Selayang District and Pratama Vina Clinic, Medan Baru District. The research design was a one group pretest-posttest design. The research sample was 12 primiparous postpartum mothers who were selected by purposive sampling technique. The data from the observations were then analyzed by the Wilcoxon test. The results showed that the p-value was 0.002, so it could be interpreted that oxytocin massage was proven to significantly increase the production of primiparous postpartum mother's milk. It is hoped that health workers will always apply oxytocin massage to post partum mothers so that breast milk production runs more smoothly, and motivates mothers and families to carry out oxytocin massage at home.
