This quasi-experimental research aimed to study the effectiveness of a Donut Hot Gel Compression on the first time lactation in postpartum women. Sample was 60 primiparous women in natural labor who were admitted to Postpartum Ward of Phatthalung Hospital during the period of March to November, 2020. Participants were selected using purposive sampling technique, and were assigned using simple random sampling to either a control of experimental group of 30 participants. The control group received only routine care procedures, while the experimental group received the donut hot compress gel. Research instruments were the donut hot compress gel, and a questionnaire for data collection including: 1) personal information, 2) labor information, 3) breast assessment, 4) breastfeeding record, 5) breast milk flow assessment, and 6) time taking the donut hot compress gel. Content valid index of the breastfeeding record and breast milk flow assessment were .90 and .80, respectively. Inter-rater reliability were .80 and .90, respectively. Data were analyzed by using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation and t-test.
Results revealed that the mean score for duration of the first-time lactation in the experimental group was 20.54 hours (M= 20.54, S.D.= 7.06), while in the control group was 32.36 hours (M= 32.36, S.D.= 4.44). Duration of the first-time lactation in the experimental group was statistically significant lower than in the control group (t= 7.50, p < .001). This finding indicated that the donut hot compress gel promoted first-time milk ejection and onset of lactation, ensuring breastfeeding success.
