ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the association of feeding to sleep during infancy and subsequent childhood health burdens. STUDYDESIGN:
Information was collected from the parents of children who participated in the national health screening survey when the child was 9-12 months old. The exposure group included participants who were fed to sleep. The primary outcome was all-cause hospital admission (inpatient care, intensive care unit [ICU] admission, or general anesthesia) after age 24 months. Secondary outcomes were subsequent childhood diseases (ie, adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy, nasal polyps, allergic rhinitis, acute otitis media, asthma, pneumonia, and aspiration pneumonia), and growth status, as measured by weight-to-age and height-to-age z-scores.RESULTS:
The study cohort consisted of 224â075 children who participated in the health screening program, 29â392 of whom (13.1%; 51% males) were fed to sleep. Exposure was associated with an increased risk of all-cause hospitalization after age 24 months (hazard ratio [HR], 1.05; 95% CI, 1.03-1.07), but not with admission to an ICU or receipt of general anesthesia. This also was related to adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy (HR, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.01-1.15), dental caries (HR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.23-1.40), asthma (HR, 1.14; 95% CI, 1.14-1.24), pneumonia (HR, 1.10; 95% CI, 1.07-1.13), overweight (HR, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.03-1.09), and obesity (HR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.06-1.16).CONCLUSIONS:
Several adverse health outcomes are related to feeding to sleep during early childhood.Palabras clave
