Introduction: neonatal deaths can be prevented by breastfeeding from the first day of life, as is the optimal food for infants by their nutritional content required for better growth and development. Objective: To determine the prevalence and associated factors with nursing diagnosis "ineffective breastfeeding" in infants under than 6 months hospitalized in a tertiary institution. Methodology: Cross sectional study. We selected 108 pairs (mother and child) hospitalized in an institution of tertiary care in 2009, we applied a validated format to identify the diagnosis. Rasch analysis was performed for variables that represent the defining characteristics of the diagnosis, which created a scale of 0 to 100 and built a linear regression model the variables associated with the extent of diagnosis. Results: Prevalence of diagnosis was 93,5 %, the defining characteristic was easier to find the infant’s inability to hold on to the breast and the hardest was shaking and crying of the infant within the first hour after breastfeeding. Linear regression was associated factors such as: female gender, weight infant and the mother need to urinate. Conclusion: There is an unfavorable trend in both the prevalence and duration of breastfeeding for infants hospitalized, promotion of breastfeeding should be an interdisciplinary, modify hospital policies favoring the contact of the binomial and the early start to the chest maternal.
