“…The challenges identified, as well as effective interventions and support strategies, are in line with the recommendations of other studies (Santiago-Cruz et al, 2019) (Universidad Adventista de Chile, Chillán. et al, 2023) (Pol-Pons et al, 2019. Our mixed methodological approach has allowed us to obtain a more solid and grounded view, contributing to knowledge in this field and providing a basis for improving breastfeeding care in the hospital context.…”

Introduction: In this research, the issue of the role of nursing in breastfeeding in hospitalized neonates is addressed. Breastfeeding plays a fundamental role in the health and development of hospitalized neonates, and adequate support from nursing staff is essential to promote and facilitate this practice. Objective: To explore the experiences and perceptions of mothers, fathers and nursing staff in relation to breastfeeding in hospitalized neonates, as well as to evaluate the correlation between a good latch of the neonate and the production of breast milk. Methodology: Through a mixed methodological approach that combines qualitative and quantitative methods, to obtain a complete and holistic understanding of this important issue to improve neonatal care. Through in-depth interviews, focus groups, and structured questionnaires, the experiences and perceptions of mothers, fathers, and nursing staff were explored, as well as the correlation between newborn latch-on and breast milk production. Data analysis revealed that the instruments used in this study showed good reliability, with Cronbach's coefficients higher than 0.8. Results: They showed common challenges in breastfeeding, such as the lack of information and emotional support. A significant correlation was found between a good latch of the newborn and a higher production of breast milk. Conclusion: The training of nursing staff and the implementation of support strategies, such as the use of lactation consultants, were identified as key elements to improve breastfeeding care in the hospital setting. These findings support the importance of the role of nursing in the promotion and support of breastfeeding in hospitalized neonates.

“…One of the key players in this supporting role are midwives, as their job is to provide support, care and advice during pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (adopted by the Meeting of the Council of the International Confederation of Midwives, 19 July 2005, Brisbane, Australia). Furthermore, their clinical practice allows a continuous and constant close contact with many women throughout their life cycle, which gives them a key role in supporting BF [ 34 , 35 ]. Several studies recognize that healthcare professionals do not have enough training in BF and that it is midwives who have the greatest knowledge and understanding in this topic [ 35 , 36 , 37 ].…”

(1) The objective of our study is to determine, from a primary care midwife’s perspective, which biopsychosocial factors can favour or be detrimental to exclusive breast feeding. (2) The study was carried out in Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain) and is based on qualitative methodology. Twenty in-depth interviews were carried out with midwives working in primary care centres in Tenerife, using a content analysis approach. The transcript data was then encoded following an inductive approach. (3) According to the perceptions of the primary care midwives who were interviewed, the barriers and facilitators that influence exclusive breastfeeding related to the biopsychosocial spheres of women are, at an individual level, the physical and emotional aspects during the postnatal period; at the relationship level, the presence or not of support from the close family and partner; at the community level, the environment and social networks the new mothers may have; and at the work level, characteristics of jobs and early return to work. (4) The findings of our research can help healthcare professionals to approach the promotion and encouragement of exclusive breast feeding at each of the levels studied, with the aim of increasing rates following recommendations issued by The World Health Organization.

Background: The number of validated questionnaires that assess the level of breastfeeding competence of primary care professionals who attend lactating mothers is limited. Research Aim: To validate the CAPA (Competència en l’Atenció Primària sobre Alletament [Breastfeeding Competence in Primary Care]) questionnaire into Spanish in collaboration with professionals from the primary care services of the Comunidad de Madrid (Spain). Methods: In this multicentric study, four bilingual healthcare professionals translated the CAPA questionnaire into Spanish and back-translated it into Catalan. The cross-cultural adaptation included a discussion by an expert committee, a review by a philologist, and a pilot study that involved 13 healthcare residents. We randomly selected professionals from specialties involved in breastfeeding. The re-test was conducted 3 weeks later, aiming to avoid changes in the studied population. We performed a factor analysis to identify underlying constructs and hypothesis-testing to assess the validity of the questionnaire and estimated the Cronbach Alpha and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) to assess its reliability. Results: A total of 198 professionals participated by responding to the questionnaire. Factorial analysis showed that the questionnaire was unidimensional. Hypothesis testing showed that, of all the considered professional groups, midwives achieved the highest mean score ( M = 131.7, SD = 10.9, p < 0.001). Amongst the other professionals, only 26.5% achieved a basic level of breastfeeding competence. The Cronbach alpha and ICC were 0.852 (95% CI [0.821, 0.880]) and 0.890 (95% CI [0.800. 0.937]). Conclusions: The Spanish CAPA questionnaire is a valid and reliable tool for assessing breastfeeding basic competence among primary care professional groups who attend lactating mothers.
