Testing of New Method in Sanitizing Breast Pump Equipment in the NICU

Firstly, 10 participant's breast pump parts are collected, divided, washed, and dried before comparing the two methods of steam sanitation. We will test to compare the safety of the Q. Basin compared to the current method of steam bag sanitation. We will collect participant's breast pump parts and complete surface swab testing for bacteria and mold immediately after sanitation and additionally 24 hours later. Secondly, 20 participant questionnaires will measure satisfaction ratings of participants pumping human milk for hospitalized infants using two different wash, dry and steam sanitation methods. This study design will determine if participant satisfaction improves with breast pump part sanitation using the Q. Basin, compared to the current steam sanitization bag method.
