2017, International Journal of Nursing StudiesCitation Excerpt :In a study completed by Paredes et al. (1996), mothers described physicians’ instructions for continuous feeding to be vague. Out of 44 health professionals surveyed, only four prescribed oral rehydration solutions with correct prescription instructions (Paredes et al., 1996). All but one of the 44 physicians recommended continued exclusive breastfeeding for children under three months and diluted bottle milk for children aged three to 36 months (Paredes et al., 1996).
