Abstract:

The objective was to analyze in the scientific literature about the ideal time to conduct home visits (HVs) to newborns (NBs), in their first week of life, and the difficulties in conducting it, due to the absence of a consensus in determining the optimal time to perform home visit to newborn. This is an integrative review which had data sources available on the MEDLINE, VHL, Web of Science and PubMed databases. There were identified 08 studies published between 2010 and 2015. From the analysis, two thematic areas were highlighted: Ideal time for the first home visit to the newborn, and Difficulties in the home visitation to the newborn in the first week of life. The results suggest that the first visits should occur in the first week of life, especially until the second day after birth. However, there are barriers to the realization of the home visit, such as: geographical barrier, poor quality of care delivered by professionals, low number of notifications of hospital dischargethe mother-baby binomial, and lack of knowledgethe mothers about the importance of postnatal care. All this can impair the performance of health professionals, being it necessary to invest in their professional qualification and in service infrastructure.
