Exclusive breastfeeding is one of the main health and infant survival elements. To start and maintain breastfeeding, health professionals must receive culturally sensitive evidence-based breastfeeding training to offer future mothers the required information and support. While studying the nursing degree, acquiring the necessary knowledge and skills to successfully perform this work is essential.
Study the level of nursing students' breastfeeding knowledge at three Spanish public universities; explore which variables are related to acquire this knowledge.
An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional multicentre study.
Participants were the students registered for the 4 nursing degree years at the three participating universities (N = 1540). They were asked about their breastfeeding knowledge with the self-administered AprendeLact Questionnaire; breastfeeding-related socio-demographic variables were included.
The overall mean score of the 684 returned questionnaires was 4.659 (±2.377) out of 10. The year-4 students from the Castellón university obtained significantly higher mean scores and had been on practicals in maternity or neonatology units, belonged to breastfeeding associations and were artificially fed as infants. University belonged to, current academic year and placements in maternity or neonatology units were relevant factors for acquiring breastfeeding knowledge.
Syllabi based on progressive transversal learning, and participating in real maternity-related health settings, could be facilitating strategies to acquire a suitable level of breastfeeding knowledge.
纯母乳喂养是主要的健康和婴儿生存要素之一。为了启动和维持母乳喂养，卫生专业人员必须接受具有文化敏感性的循证母乳喂养培训，以便为未来的母亲提供所需的信息和支持。在攻读护理学学位期间，掌握成功开展这项工作所需的知识和技能至关重要。
研究西班牙三所公立大学护理专业学生的母乳喂养知识水平；探究哪些变量与获取这些知识相关。
一项观察性、描述性、横断面多中心研究。
参与者为三所参与研究的大学中注册了护理学四年制课程的学生（N = 1540）。通过自行填写的《AprendeLact问卷》询问他们的母乳喂养知识；纳入与母乳喂养相关的社会人口统计学变量。
684份回收问卷的总体平均得分为4.659（±2.377）（满分10分）。来自卡斯特利翁大学的四年级学生获得了显著更高的平均分数，他们曾在产科或新生儿科实习，属于母乳喂养协会成员，并且婴儿期为人工喂养。所在大学、当前学年以及在产科或新生儿科的实习经历是获取母乳喂养知识的相关因素。
基于渐进式横向学习的课程大纲以及参与实际的产科相关健康环境，可能是获取适当水平母乳喂养知识的促进策略。
