Jogoparto: o lúdico iluminando a autonomia e protagonismo da parturiente

Abstract

Humanized childbirth is a set of procedures and behaviors aimed at promoting healthy delivery and birth and preventing perinatal morbidity and mortality. In the search for effective strategies in health education and to promote good practices in labor, delivery and birth, digital games and playful instruments are important allies. The ludic plays a vital role in learning, as it enables the subject to seek understanding of his own body, rescue personal experiences, values, in addition to building solutions to problems, generating co-responsibility in the construction of knowledge. Thus, the aim of this study was to develop, together with obstetric nurses, a digital educational game. Through a qualitative study, the Convergent Care Research in association with Maguerez Arch was used as a methodological reference. The game was developed with professionals from the Pre-Delivery, Delivery and Puerperium sector of a university hospital located in the interior of Rio Grande do Norte. The technique used for data collection was of the convergence group. The data were interpreted and analyzed simultaneously, following the stages of apprehension, synthesis, theorization and transfer. The study was conducted after consent from the maternity hospital and approval from the Research Ethics Committee of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (CEP Central/UFRN), as well as after the signing of the Free and Informed Consent Form by the participants, in compliance with Resolution No. 466 of 2012 of the Conselho Nacional de Saúde. During the research, it was possible to observe how easy it was for professionals to identify the key points needed to build the game. In addition, they managed to associate theory with practice in the case study used to simulate the day-to-day implementation of the game, which facilitated the process of building the game. It is expected that the developed game can corroborate with the ongoing education process of assistant nurses in Primary Health Care and of obstetric nurses in maternity hospitals and specialized services and with health education, enhancing the parturient's autonomy in her midwifery process.
