Resumen
Introducción La información y promoción en madres que lactan es inherente, ya que deben
recibir conocimientos acerca de la lactancia materna que es única e irremplazable teniendo
en cuenta que ayuda a cubrir las necesidades alimentarias del bebé y que además durante los
primeros seis meses de vida se convierte en un derecho humano fundamental que brinda
beneficios para ambos. Objetivo: Determinar el nivel de los conocimientos y prácticas en
lactancia materna exclusiva en un grupo de madres adolescentes de una IPS de barranquilla.
Material y métodos: la investigación es de tipo descriptivo, de diseño transversal y con un
enfoque cuantitativo. La muestra estuvo conformada por 15 madres adolescentes con niños
menores de 6 meses que asisten a un programa de control prenatal de una institución
prestadora de servicios (IPS) Simón Bolívar de la ciudad de barranquilla. Para la recolección
de la información se realizó un cuestionario y una guía de observación, referente a la práctica
de lactancia materna exclusiva se midió bajo los criterios de adecuado e inadecuado.
Resultados: el nivel de conocimientos en lactancia materna por las madres adolescentes es
promedio (45%) y con respecto a la práctica no es del todo adecuada (71%). Conclusiones:
las madres adolescentes, son estudiantes, tienen en promedio un hijo y la mayoría aún vive
con sus padres. El mayor porcentaje de madres adolescentes tienen un nivel promedio de
conocimientos y realizan una práctica poco adecuada de lactancia materna resultados que
corroboran la hipótesis del proyecto de investigación.
Information and promotion in breastfeeding mothers is inherent, since they should receive knowledge about breastfeeding, which is unique and irreplaceable, taking into account that it helps to cover the baby's nutritional needs and also that during the first six months of life it becomes a fundamental human right that provides benefits for both. Objectives: To determine the level of knowledge and practices in exclusive breastfeeding in a group of adolescent mothers in an IPS in Barranquilla. Material and methods: The research is descriptive, with a cross-sectional design and a quantitative approach. The sample consisted of 15 adolescent mothers with children under 6 months of age attending a prenatal control program at a Simón Bolívar service provider institution (IPS) in the city of Barranquilla. A questionnaire and an observation guide were used to collect information on the practice of exclusive breastfeeding, which was measured under the criteria of adequate and inadequate. Results: the level of knowledge of breastfeeding by adolescent mothers is average (45%) and with respect to the practice it is not entirely adequate (71%). Conclusions: adolescent mothers are students, have an average of one child and most of them still live with their parents. The highest percentages of adolescent mothers have an average level of knowledge and perform an inadequate breastfeeding practice, results that corroborate the hypothesis of the research project
