Bartick M et al. – Of a possible score of 100 points, the average hospital scored only 63 with great regional disparities. Inappropriate provision and promotion of infant formula were common, despite evidence that such practices reduce breastfeeding success. Twenty–four percent of facilities reported regularly giving non–breast milk supplements to more than half of all healthy, full–term infants. Metrics available for measuring quality of breastfeeding care, range from comprehensive Baby–Friendly Hospital Certification to compliance with individual steps such as the rate of in–hospital exclusive breastfeeding.
