withNils Bergman MB ChB, DCH, MPH, MD
Sponsored by
Join us for a full day with Dr. Nils Bergman! Dr. Bergman is a physician and researcher who has dedicated his professional life to the study of Kangaroo Mother Care, and how zero separation of the mother and infant after birth is crucial for optimal infant development and reduction of infant morbidity and mortality. Dr. Bergman led the largest randomized controlled trial to date, (the ‘World Health Organization Immediate Kangaroo Mother Care Study’) exploring the effect of immediate skin to skin care among premature and low birth weight infants in 5 low resource countries. He will share results of this study, which were published in the New England Journal of Medicine May 27, 2021. He will also explain the science behind skin to skin care and discuss how to implement this practice in NICUs around the world.

About the Webinar
Please join us for a special 2 hour learning experience on HIV and lactation in the USA. Although the current US Centers for Disease Control recommends against breastfeeding while living with HIV, there is growing evidence that there are circumstances when it is safe for parents living with HIV to breastfeed or chestfeed. We will share stories and experiences of lactating parents in the USA living with HIV, and the challenges they face within their medical communities. We will also describe documented inequity of care, including criminalization, that lactating parents living with HIV face based on race/ethnicity. We will wrap up with recent research evidence that demonstrates safety of direct infant feeding for parents living with HIV, how this could influence US public policy, and means of support that physicians can provide for lactating parents living with HIV.
