Avaliação da efetividade do pré-natal integral online

Abstract

The history of motherhood has undergone transformations over time, going from being just a divine victory to becoming a public spectacle. Currently, psychological studies show that pregnancy is a process of profound internal transformation for women, involving emotional, behavioral, identity and social changes. Motherhood, from a psychological perspective, is influenced by fantasies, expectations, dreams, anxieties and conflicts, highlighting the importance of demystifying the idea of perfection. To guarantee comprehensive care during pregnancy and postpartum, public policies are essential to meet the needs of pregnant women and their families, guaranteeing the right to health. The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Comprehensive Prenatal Care (PNI) online with the specific objective of developing a social technology for health promotion in the postpartum period. The provision of integrated prenatal services online was developed with the aim of serving pregnant women nationwide, through meetings that address different topics that help in the best way for the baby's arrival, preparing them for the physical changes , mental and psychic, seeking to minimize cases of postpartum depression and disorders that can occur due to the stress of a change in employee routine when a baby arrives. The meeting group, made up of 8 pregnant women, showed significant efficiency and effectiveness, based on scales to assess the patients' psychological well-being. Through a 12-week approach, these patients received support and support materials, creating a welcoming virtual environment. The results are positive in this online monitoring modality. One of the main limitations of this study was the small sample size, which may limit the generalization of the results to the general population and requires caution when extrapolating the conclusions to broader contexts. We recognize the need for future studies that incorporate quantitative and qualitative approaches with a broader population, we seek a more robust validation of the inferences presented in this work and the confirmation or refutation of the conclusions reached.
