Construção de tecnologia educativa sobre sinais de trabalho de parto

Abstract

Childbirth is a physiological process; It is the time of pregnancy and childbirth where there are organic changes, bodily and emotional intensely. In addition to the physical sensations, labor and childbirth include psychological, spiritual and social dimensions. When calving begins spontaneously, the very pregnant women seek assistance, requesting measures to address a health service. However what is observed is that most after being evaluated, are advised to return home because they are presenting only prodromal signs. Therefore the objective was to build an educational material on the signals that determine the onset of true labor. This is a descriptive study in order to describe the process of building an educational technology to promote knowledge about the true Obstetric Labor signs. The work and consists of 05 steps that address the reason for conducting the study, literature survey about the proposed theme, the decision about the educational strategy being drawn up, the search for images to build a visual information and the outcome of the educational strategy ie, the technology itself. After critical and reflective reading of the literature selected for the study were prepared three categories that emerged by reading the articles and justifying the drafting of the folder. These categories are: Obstetric Labor signals (STP), measures favoring the True Obstetric Labor (TPV) and the benefits of avoiding early admission. It is hoped that this study can be used in health services and that Obstetricians professionals and other professionals who care for pregnant women can perform safe and appropriate guidance when using the folder to promote knowledge about True Obstetric Labor signs.
