Summary

Introduction

Women’s health care during the gestational cycle remains a challenge for health authorities, both in terms of quality of care per se, and in conceptual frameworks[1]. With regard to childbirth, in the course of time, various techniques, practices and care practices have been developed and improved, in order to humanize as much as possible the moment of childbirth and birth. The meaning of normal humanized childbirth goes beyond its scientific definition as it is understood as a physiological and familiar event, being the role of the nurse to assist the woman so that this moment is as safe and pleasurable as possible[2]. The World Health Organization (WHO) advocates a cesarean rate of up to 15%, which should be the maximum prevalence of caesarean section in any country in the world[3]. It is estimated that in Brazil, almost one million women are submitted every year to cesarean section without adequate obstetric indication[4]
