Exclusive Breastfeeding Rates at Hospital Discharge Across the Robson Ten-Group Classification System: A Retrospective Study.

ABSTRACT: (1) Background: While the Robson Ten-Group Classification System (RTGCS) is widely used to assess and monitor caesarean section rates, its association with exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) outcomes at hospital discharge remains insufficiently explored. This study aimed to examine differences in EBF rates at hospital discharge across RTGCS groups among births attended at Hospital Universitario de la Ribera (Spain). (2) Methods: This retrospective observational study was conducted at a public hospital between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2023. EBF at hospital discharge was analysed across Robson groups. Sociodemographic, obstetric, and neonatal variables were collected. A binomial logistic regression model was developed to identify predictors of EBF at discharge. Model fit was assessed using
