About the Pumping Essentials™ Guide
Are you considering purchasing new breast pumps for your hospital or rental fleet? Developed in partnership with Dr. Emily Spaeth, PT, DPT, IBCLC of Be Well Baby, the Pumping Essentials™ Guide was created to help hospitals and rental fleet managers critically evaluate each pump’s qualities against evidence-based clinical standards.
The guide includes:
- An overview of the Pumping Essentials™: Fit, Comfort, Cleanliness, Accessibility, and Effectiveness
- A pump-by-pump evaluation checklist covering flange sizing, adjustable settings, infection control, and suckling-pattern accuracy
- Considerations specific to hospital and rental fleet procurement, including footprint, battery life, and cross-compatibility
- Evidence-based rationale behind each criterion, so procurement decisions are grounded in current lactation research
