0291/2024 - Representações sociais de puérperas sobre violência obstétrica nos cenários do parto e do nascimento Postpartum women\'s social representations of obstetric violence in childbirth and birth settings
O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar as representações sociais atribuídas pelas puérperas sobre violência obstétrica nos cenários do parto e do nascimento. Trata-se de estudo qualitativo fundamentado na Teoria das Representações Sociais com puérperas atendidas em hospital universitário. Os dados foram realizados por meio de evocações livres ao termo indutor “violência obstétrica” e organizados com auxílio do IRaMuTeQ. As representações sociais possibilitaram elaborar um diagrama com frequência e Ordem Média de Evocação (OME), caracterizados em quadro com Núcleo Central com os termos ignorância (f = 11; OME = 2,4), medo (f = 11; OME = 2,7) e dor (f = 9; OME = 2,7); na Primeira Periferia, grosseria (f = 14; OME = 3,4); raiva (f =9 ; OME = 2,6) e ruim (f = 9; OME = 3,4); na Zona de Contraste, tristeza (f = 5; OME = 2,4); angústia (f = 5; OME = 2,8) e invasão de privacidade (f = 3; OME = 2,7); Segunda Periferia, agredir (f = 4; OME = 3,2); imprudência (f = 4; OME = 4,5) e vulnerável (f = 2; OME = 4,0). As representações sociais foram destacadas pela vulnerabilidade, falta de informação e desrespeito à autonomia. Fazem-se necessárias discussões sobre o tema nos cenários de saúde e na formação profissional para fortalecer as boas práticas de assistência ao parto e nascimento.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to analyze the social representations attributed by postpartum women regarding obstetric violence in childbirth and birth settings. This qualitative study is grounded in the Theory of Social Representations and involved postpartum women attending a university hospital. Data were collected through free associations to the trigger term \"obstetric violence\" and organized using IRaMuTeQ. The social representations allowed the construction of a diagram with frequency and Average Order of Evocation (AOE), characterized in a framework with a central core including the terms ignorance (f = 11; AOE = 2.4), fear (f = 11; AOE = 2.7), and pain (f = 9; AOE = 2.7); in the first periphery, rudeness (f = 14; AOE = 3. 4), anger (f = 9; AOE = 2.6), and evil (f = 9; AOE = 3.4); in the contrast zone, sadness (f = 5; AOE = 2.4), fear (f = 5; AOE = 2. 8), and invasion of privacy (f = 3; AOE = 2.7); and in the second periphery, assault (f = 4; AOE = 3.2), recklessness (f = 4; AOE = 4.5), and vulnerability (f = 2; AOE = 4.0). Social representations emphasized vulnerability, lack of information, and disrespect for autonomy. It is imperative that discussions on this topic be held in healthcare settings and during professional training to reinforce the implementation of effective practices in childbirth and maternity care.
