RESUMO
Mother's own milk (MOM) is known to decrease complications in preterm infants and when unavailable, it is recommended that preterm very low-birth weight infants be fed donor human milk (DHM). Due to the pasteurization, processing, and lactation stage of donors, DHM does not contain the same nutritional, immunologic, and microbial components as MOM. This review summarizes the differences between MOM and DHM, the potential effects on health outcomes, and the clinical implications of these differences. Finally, implications for research and clinical practice are discussed.

This article discusses the findings of a 5-week pilot using a mindfulness app among medical-surgical nursing staff in an acute care setting during a 12-hour shift. Informational sessions on compassion fatigue, mindfulness, and the process were implemented with leadership providing daily support. The postimplementation survey demonstrated increased calmness and reduced stress. Barriers identified involve perceived time constraints. Awareness is needed on compassion fatigue, interventions to combat, and modifications to promote the culture of self-care.
