    Exclusive Pumping – Aug 21 2023

    Exclusive Pumping Webinar

    Monday, August 21st, 2023

    8:15am - 2:15pm CST (9:15am - 3:15pm EST)

    with

    Anne Eglash MD, IBCLC, FABM

    Exclusive Pumping focuses on the care of individuals who largely rely on pumping for milk removal during lactation. Exclusive pumping is often associated with a different set of challenges compared to direct feeding, and the sessions will address strategies to help individuals with the most common questions and problems that arise from exclusive pumping.

    Goals for Exclusive Pumping include to:

    • Identify basic features of pumps and review of general guidelines on the use of any pump.
    • Discuss underlying reasons for low milk production in those who exclusively pump, and strategies to help improve production.
    • Explain why exclusive pumping can increase the risk of over production and how over production can lead to complications of lactation.
    • Identify reasons for breast and nipple pain that are unique to those who exclusively pump.

    On our last morning, we look forward to a workshop on healing perinatal trauma with narrative medicine, and a history of medicine lecture focused the historical origins of breastfeeding myths.

Heather received support from her providers to breastfeed her two children- both of whom are currently happy, healthy, and HIV-negative. She currently serves as the Programs Director for International Community of Women Living with HIV- North America (ICWNA). Heather is the brainchild of "The Milky Moovement +", a supportive network for mothers/ birthing parents with an interest in breast/chestfeeding.

    Martha Sichone Cameron BA, MPH, is the executive director for the International Community of Women Living with HIV (ICW) North America and has served on the board of ICW Global. Born and raised in Zambia, she has earned a bachelor’s degree in education (English/French) and a Master’s in Public Health.

    Other past positions include Director of Policy & Advocacy at TWC, and Executive Director of an International faith-based non-profit called Every Orphan’s Hope (EOH) Inc. in Zambia where she had hands on experience running HIV programs for orphans and widows. Martha still does some consulting work for EOH and with Children’s AIDS Fund International.

    Martha is actively involved in various HIV Policy, Advocacy and Research forums including Positive Women’s Network, US PLWHA Caucus and DC Center for AIDS Research.

    Jason Faulhaber MD, is an Infectious Diseases specialist in Roanoke, VA. Since 1988, he has been involved with HIV/AIDS whether it be counseling, education, advocacy, prevention, or providing direct medical care. He went to Tulane University for undergraduate education specializing in Cellular and Molecular Biology. He then attended the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. He conducted his residency training in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics at St. Vincent's Hospital in NYC and fellowship in Infectious Diseases at New York University. He currently serves as the Program Director of the Infectious Diseases Fellowship at Virginia Tech-Carilion School of Medicine and Carilion Clinic. He is the Director of the Ryan White Program at Carilion, and he provides perinatal care for infants born to women living with HIV throughout all of Southwest Virginia.

    Adrienne Millner, MD, IBCLC, (she/her/hers) has been an advocate for mothers and other breastfeeding parents since 2002 when she began as a volunteer for La Leche League International. She has been a board-certified lactation consultant since 2009, and her interest in human lactation paved the way to a career in medicine. She received her medical education at the Medical College of Virginia and completed residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Virginia Tech-Carilion School of Medicine. She is currently an attending physician with Natividad Medical Center in Salinas, California, a Baby Friendly certified public hospital with a focus on healthcare equity and access and the sole facility in Monterey County supporting vaginal birth after cesarean. She has two young adult children and breastfed for a total of seven years.

    Marielle S. Gross MD, received her medical degree from University of Florida College of Medicine with Honors in Research in 2014. She completed her residency in Gynecology & Obstetrics at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in 2018. She received the Williams Senior Resident Research Award in 2017 for Breastfeeding Policy for US Women Living with HIV: An Ethical Analysis of the Evidence and was inducted into the Johns Hopkins Distinguished Teaching Society in 2017.

Currently, in addition to providing clinical care at UPMC Altoona, Marielle is piloting a simulation-based medical ethics curriculum for University of Pittsburgh medical students during their obstetrics/gynecology rotation.

    Prior to coming to the University of Pittsburgh, Marielle was a Hecht-Levi Postdoctoral Fellow at the Johns-Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics. Her research continues to focus on the application of technology and elimination of bias as means of promoting evidence-basis, equity and efficiency in women’s healthcare. She pursues these themes along two key dimensions. First, she is exploring ethics of health data and implementation of learning health systems via emerging technologies (e.g., blockchain, artificial intelligence and privacy-preserving computation). She challenges the status quo in ethical, sociocultural, legal and technical models for data treatment, for example by advancing the concept of "health data as labor" and critiquing current ethical and legal protections for data use both within and outside of traditional healthcare research contexts. The second major dimension focuses on dismantling "Prejudice Based Medicine," i.e., policies and practices which are not evidence-based and which tend to exacerbate disparities in health and healthcare. She has explored these issues in depth as they affect women living with HIV, hepatitis or substance use, and is currently studying disrespect and bias in prenatal records.”
