    Objective: The level of knowledge of mothers about neonatal screening to detect congenital metabolic diseases attending the local health center was evaluated. Methodology: Quantitative study with a descriptive cross-sectional approach that applies the deductive method to generate conclusions from the results of the application of a survey to 45 selected participants through inclusion and exclusion criteria, respecting the bioethical principles of research in humans stipulated in the Declaration of Helsinki.

The level of knowledge possessed by mothers is 84.4% in general characteristics and 31.1% in specific characteristics, while acceptance through the role played by the nurse obtained quite satisfactory levels, 100% say they have observed that. The nurse had all the materials available to carry out the test in this way, through the education and experience that the patient has, compliance with the examination is guaranteed. Conclusions: It is possible to identify the level of knowledge of the mothers who go to the health center to perform the screening test on their children, the level of knowledge is optimal when we talk about general characteristics, but we must emphasize in the education of the diseases that prevent examination and strengthen strategy
