Research Abstract

Finally, 150 infants (76 boys; breastfeeding, 79 infants; mean age, 6.3+/-2.8 months;mean height, 68.0+/-8.8 cm; mean weight, 8.0+/-2.4 kg; gestational age, 39.5+/-1.9 weeks)participated in this study. Of those, we could collect urine sample from 70 infants. Mean day and time for collection of their urine sample was 5 days and 10.3 minutes, respectively. Characteristics of infants were not different between infants who could get urine sample and those who could not. We found that about a half of infants could collect their urine sample using a procedure which we proposed.
