Educational intervention on breastfeeding in pregnant women
Abstract
Introduction: There are innumerable benefits of breastfeeding, since it provides the necessary nutrients and energy for healthy growth and development in infants during their first six months of life; however, there is still a lack of knowledge on this subject.
Objective: To increase the level of knowledge about breastfeeding in pregnant women admitted to the Justo Legón Padilla Maternity Home, belonging to the municipality and province of Pinar del Rio, during the year 2022.
Methods: A quasi-experimental study of educational intervention was carried out, with pre-test and post-test. The universe was made up of 150 pregnant women who were in the last trimester of pregnancy, admitted to said institution in the indicated period, from which a sample of 90 pregnant women was selected according to simple random probabilistic sampling, with prior informed consent. An educational program was applied. The results were processed and presented through tables. Statistical measures of absolute and relative frequency distribution were applied.
Results: 97% of the pregnant women were found with a good qualification after the educational intervention, in issues related to breastfeeding.
Conclusions: The educational intervention strategy on breastfeeding was effective in the pregnant women studied.
