Evaluamos un programa de préstamo de bombas eléctricas para facilitar la lactancia materna a mujeres de bajos recursos económicos que regresan a su trabajo de tiempo completo. Todas las madres son participantes en el programa WIC en el área de Los Ángeles. El programa de préstamo de bombas eléctricas se hizo hasta que el bebe cumple un año de edad o hasta que la madre solicita formula de WIC. Se dio la información a los empleadores que apoyan la lactancia materna en el trabajo. Comparamos los grupos de madres que recibieron las bombas eléctricas al volver a su trabajo de tiempo completo en contraste con aquellas en la lista de espera del grupo control. Las madres que recibieron la bomba eléctrica al solicitarla no pidieron formula hasta los 8.8 meses en promedio, mientras que aquellas que no recibieron la bomba eléctrica solicitaron formula a los 4.8% meses (P < .0001) en promedio. Las madres que recibieron una bomba eléctrica cuando la pidieron no solicitaron formula en 5.5 (95% CI 2.0-15.1) veces mas que aquellas que no recibieron la bomba eléctrica a los 6 meses.
