Abstract

Objective: to analyze the scientific production on online courses on breastfeeding as a strategy to improve the quality of care. Methods: a scoping review, based on the method proposed by the Joanna Briggs Institute. The electronic databases used were: PubMed; LILACS; CINAHL; SCOPUS; Web of Science; BDENF and EMBASE, published from 2015 to 2020. Results: 961 abstracts were read, 15 articles in full for the final inclusion of 9 articles. The publications occurred between 2011 and 2020, their samples ranged from 54 to 26009 participants. In only 5 studies (55.6%) some method of learning assessment was used and the most used strategy was the application of pre and post test. Conclusion: the scarcity of studies on online courses on breastfeeding as a strategy to improve the quality of care shows a gap in knowledge on the subject. It was also found the need to improve the methodological description of the published studies.
