Interventions/Control_1

In addition to the usual care received at the facility, such as breastfeeding support and newborn visits, the intervention group submits images of the breast area taken with a research-specific smartphone that is not set up to connect to the internet (hereafter, research smartphone) on one occasion during the delivery hospitalisation. The submitted images are analysed using deep learning and the research subjects receive materials according to the results of the decision.

Interventions/Control_2

The control group receives only usual care.
