Resumo:
Para verificar a associação entre capacitação em aleitamento materno e conhecimentos, habilidades, e práticas profissionais, foi conduzido estudo transversal nos 15 hospitais com mais de 1000 partos/ano do município do Rio de Janeiro. Foram entrevistados 215 profissionais, sendo 48,4% em Hospitais Amigos da Criança, mediante adaptação de questionário de reavaliação desta iniciativa. Os três desfechos, dicotomizados, foram utilizados em análises bivariadas (p≤0,20) e multivariadas (p≤0,05), sendo obtidas razões de prevalência ajustadas por modelo de regressão de Poisson. 48,1% dos profissionais tinham conhecimentos; 58,9% habilidades e 74,9% práticas adequadas. A capacitação teórico-prática ≥ 18 horas, considerada adequada, presente em 65,6% dos profissionais, mostrou associação significativa com conhecimentos (RPa=1,575), habilidades (RPa=1,530) e práticas (RPa=1,312). Profissionais com menor tempo de trabalho apresentaram menos conhecimentos (RPa=0,723), mas relataram melhores práticas (RPa=1,183). A enfermagem relatou melhores práticas em relação aos médicos (RPa=0,808) e a outras categorias (RPa=0,658). Conclui-se que a capacitação contribui para o aprimoramento de conhecimentos, habilidades e práticas em aleitamento materno, fundamentais à assistência materno-infantil.
A cross-sectional study was conducted in the 15 hospitals with more than 1000 deliveries/year in Rio de Janeiro City, Brazil, to verify the association between health professional training in breastfeeding and professional knowledge, skills and practices. 215 health professionals were interviewed, 48.4% working in Baby-Friendly Hospitals, by means of a questionnaire adapted from this initiative’s revaluation instrument. The three outcomes, dichotomized, were analyzed by bivariate (p≤0,20) and multivariate analyzes (p≤0.05). Adjusted prevalence ratios were obtained by Poisson regression model. 48.1% of the professionals had adequate knowledge, 58.9% adequate skills and 74.9% reported adequate practice. A theoretical and practical breastfeeding training ≥ 18 hours, considered adequate (performed by 65.6% of the professionals) showed significant association with professional knowledge (aPR=1.575), skills (aPR=1.530) and practices (aPR=1.312). Less working time was associated with less knowledge (aPR=0.723), but with better practices (aPR=1.183). Nursing staff reported better practices than physicians (aPR=0.808) and other categories (aPR=0.658). This study concludes that training contributes to improve knowledge, skills and practices in breastfeeding, essential to maternal and child care.
