Implementação do uso do balanço pélvico tipo "cavalinho" na maternidade Dr. Araken Irerê Pinto – Natal/RN

Abstract

This study aimed to implement the use of pelvic swing type in the Dr. Araken Irerê Pinto Maternity as a non-pharmacological resource for pain relief in childbirth. An intervention was carried out by means of conversation wheels in which the multidisciplinary team was trained to use this equipment, as well as to evaluate its safe and adequate use by professionals with parturients. After the training, the use of the "horse" was evaluated from the registry in an institutional form called “History/ Evolution of Nursing”. The results showed that there was an increase of 18% to 34% in the use of the equipment among Maternity parturients. The work was developed aiming at the improvement of the professional qualification, contributing to the reduction of medical interventions and unnecessary maneuvers during labor, increasing in this way the autonomy of the parturient and the participation of the family during the process of giving birth.
