Objective:
To analyse the progress of care in the promotion of breastfeeding and describe breastfeeding results following the implementation of the RNAO guideline in various types of national health centres.
Method:
Quantitative descriptive longitudinal study of the results of implementing the recommendations of the RNAO-Breastfeeding guideline in 9 national health centres following the implementation methodology of the programme of the Best Practice Spotlight Organization®. Process and result variables are collected at hospital level and in primary care by registering on the CAREVID platform. The weighted mean was calculated as a summary statistic.
Results:
The implementation of the recommendations of the Breastfeeding guideline was associated with a relative increase in: skin-to-skin contact 57,7% (p < 0,000), exclusive breastfeeding in the 1st intake 47,8% (p < 0,000), exclusive breastfeeding on hospital discharge 18,4% (p < 0,000) and prenatal education 63,95% (p < 0,00).
Conclusion:
The implementation of the RNAO-Breastfeeding guideline in different national health centres has increased the application of the recommendations based on scientific evidence, generalising appropriate breastfeeding care (such as prenatal education, application of skin-to-skin contact and exclusive breastfeeding in the first intake) and is consequently significantly approaching the international recommendations on breastfeeding.

Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation.
