Abstract Objective to understand the meaning of Nursing care management for the quality of prenatal care in the view of Primary Health Care nurses. Method a qualitative research developed with Grounded Theory and Edgar Morin's complex thinking. Participant observations and individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 primary care nurses. Data analysis: open, axial and selective coding/integration and organization by NVIVO® software. Results the central phenomenon "Promoting Nursing care management in Primary Health Care" showed that Nursing care management performed by nurses contributes to promote the autonomy of pregnant women, the quality of care, the protagonism and empowerment of mothers in the process of pregnancy, delivery, birth and breastfeeding, involving the participation of the family/support network in care. Final considerations and implications for the practice care management performed by nurses seeks to accommodate the singularities of pregnant women/families and promote singular, multidimensional, continuous, vigilant, systematized and integrated care, valuing the subjectivity and the protagonism of women, based on the principles of maternal autonomy and empowerment. It is recommended the adequate dimensioning of personnel, the performance of health actions in an integrated/networked way, the effective communication between the different levels of care, and the intensified preparation for the physiological birth, the puerperium, and breastfeeding.

Cervical Ripening and Labor Induction and Augmentation, 5th Edition.

Cervical ripening and induction and augmentation of labor are common procedures in labor and birth units. The potential risks and benefits for the procedure should be explained to women so that they can make informed decisions. Clinicians should be knowledgeable about the methods and medications used and be skilled in maternal-fetal assessment. Adequate nurse staffing is required to monitor the mother and fetus to promote the best possible outcomes. This practice monograph includes information on mechanical and pharmacologic methods for cervical ripening; labor induction and augmentation with oxytocin, a high alert drug; and nurse staffing levels and skills needed to provide safe and effective care during cervical ripening and labor induction and augmentation.

Plan de nacimiento: una mirada de los profesionales de la salud en Portugal / Birth plan: a look of the health professionals in Portugal

Introduction: The birth plan (BP) is a written document prepared by the couple to express their wishes regarding birth. It has been the subject of health studies, although in Portugal there is a lack of research. Objective: To identify the perception of health professionals (HP) about the BP in Portugal. Methods: qualitative, exploratory, descriptive study with self-completed questionnaire on an online platform. Anonymity and confidentiality guaranteed. We used the content analysis according to Bardin and the INVivo12 tool. The non-probabilistic, intentional sample with 44 nurses midwives. Results and discussion: The BP was associated with the descriptors: empowerment and decision, humanization, choice and respect. 72.7% informed the woman/couple during the prenatal appointment and in childbirth classes. 47.7% assisted in its construction; 50% reported difficulties due to lack of model, non-acceptance and fears of HP reactions. 93.1% thought that their presentation to the team is important; 63.6% considered that BP isn't respected in maternities for institutional and professional reasons; 90.9% considered that the HP reacts in several ways to the presentation of the BP, from the devaluation to the need for its institutionalization. The results show that, although we are in different stages of BP implementation, the difficulties presented are similar to those developed in Europe. Conclusions: The results show that the HP recognize the advantages of the BP as a facilitating and reorientation strategy for women/couples in childbirth, promoting respectful and citizen-centered care. From conception to implementation, the BP seems to be a still incipient practice in Portugal. The HP considers necessary to create policies for the implementation and development of BP, important for citizens as well as for the HP

Quality Improvement Opportunities Identified Through Case Review of Pregnancy-Related Deaths From Venous Thromboembolism.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze quality improvement opportunities (QIOs) identified through review of cases of maternal death from venous thromboembolism (VTE) by the California Pregnancy-Associated Mortality Review Committee. DESIGN: Qualitative, descriptive design using thematic analysis. SAMPLE: A total of 108 QIOs identified from 29 cases of pregnancy-related deaths from VTE in California from 2002 to 2007. METHODS: We coded and thematically organized the 108 QIOs using three of the four domains commonly applied in quality improvement initiatives for maternal health care: Readiness, Recognition, and Response. Data did not include reporting issues, so the Reporting domain was excluded from the analysis. RESULTS: Women's lack of awareness of the significance of severe VTE symptoms and the lack of a standardized approach to recognize and respond to VTE signs and symptoms were the most prevalent themes in the Readiness domain. Missing the signs and symptoms of VTE and the resultant missed or delayed diagnosis were predominant themes in the Recognition domain. For Response, issues related to lack of VTE prophylaxis were most frequently noted, along with other themes, including timing of treatment and appropriate follow-up after hospital discharge. CONCLUSION: To decrease the occurrence of maternal death from VTE in the United States, consistent and thorough education regarding VTE signs and symptoms must be given to all women and their families during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Maternity care facilities and providers should implement preventive measures, including standardized use of VTE prophylaxis, improved methods to recognize the signs and symptoms of VTE, and improved follow-up after hospital discharge.

Quality Improvement Opportunities Identified Through Case Review of Pregnancy-Related Deaths From Obstetric Hemorrhage.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze quality improvement opportunities (QIOs) identified through review of cases of maternal death from obstetric hemorrhage by the California Pregnancy-Associated Mortality Review Committee. DESIGN: Qualitative descriptive using thematic analysis. SAMPLE: A total of 159 QIOs identified from 33 cases of pregnancy-related deaths from obstetric hemorrhage in California from 2002 to 2007. METHODS: We coded and thematically organized the 159 QIOs using three of the four domains commonly applied in quality improvement initiatives for maternal health care: Readiness, Recognition, and Response. Data did not include reporting issues, so the Reporting domain was excluded from the analysis. RESULTS: Thematic findings indicated that facility Readiness would be improved through practice standardization, better organization of equipment to treat hemorrhage, and planning for care of women with risk factors for hemorrhage. Recognition of hemorrhage by health care providers could be improved through accurate assessment of blood loss, risk factors, and early clinical signs of deterioration. Provider Response could be improved through reducing delays in administering blood, seeking consultations, transferring women to higher levels of care within or outside of the facility, and moving on to other treatments if a woman does not respond to current treatment. CONCLUSION: Hemorrhage is the most preventable cause of maternal death in California. Morbidity and mortality from hemorrhage can be prevented if birth facilities and maternity care clinicians align local practices with national safety guidelines.

Quality Improvement Opportunities Identified Through Case Review of Pregnancy-Related Deaths From Sepsis.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze quality improvement opportunities (QIOs) identified through review of cases of maternal death from sepsis by the California Pregnancy-Associated Mortality Review Committee. DESIGN: Qualitative descriptive design using thematic analysis. SAMPLE: A total of 118 QIOs identified from 27 cases of pregnancy-related deaths from sepsis in California from 2002 to 2007. METHODS: We coded and thematically organized the 118 QIOs using three of the four domains commonly applied in quality improvement initiatives for maternal health care: Readiness, Recognition, and Response. Data did not include reporting issues, so the Reporting domain was excluded from the analysis. RESULTS: Women's delay in seeking care was the central theme in the Readiness domain. In the Recognition domain, health care providers missed the signs and symptoms of sepsis, including elevated temperature, elevated white blood cell count, increased heart rate, decreased blood pressure, mottled skin, preterm labor, headache, and pain. For Response, late antibiotic administration was a central theme; multiple emergent themes included administration of the wrong antibiotics, failure to investigate women's complaints of pain, lack of nurse/provider communication, and lack of follow-up care after hospital discharge. CONCLUSION: To reverse the contribution of sepsis to the rising rate of maternal mortality in the United States, health care facilities and providers need to reduce barriers for women who seek care, recognize early symptoms, and respond with appropriate treatment. This could be achieved by implementation of the Maternal Early Warning Criteria, standardized guidelines such as those from the Surviving Sepsis campaign, and comprehensive discharge education.

Non-verbal nurse-parturient communication in labor in Portuguese-speaking countries / Comunicação não verbal enfermeiro-parturiente no trabalho de parto em países lusófonos / Comunicación no verbal entre enfermero y parturienta en trabajo de parto en países lusohablantes

Objective: to analyze nonverbal communication between nurse and parturient during the active phase of labor in two Portuguese-speaking countries. Method: a quantitative and analytical study, whose sample consisted of 709 interactions that used the nonverbal communication of nurses and parturients. The analyzed variables were: distance; posture; axis; contact; emblematic gestures; illustrator gestures and regulatory gestures. For the analysis of the data, the Chi-Square and Likelihood Ratio tests were used. Results: the intimate distance between nurse and parturient in both countries (p = 0.005) prevailed. In both, touch was the most commonly used form of contact (p <0.0001). In both countries, the parturient remained lying down (p <0.0001). In relation to the established contact (p <0.0001), the parturient did not use contact. The face-to-face axis predominated in the interactions in both countries between nurse-parturient (p <0.0001) and parturient-nurse (p <0.0001). Conclusion: similarities were observed in non-verbal communication between nurses and parturients in both countries. However, there are differences such as the established contact between Brazilian and Cape Verdean nurses to parturients.

Objetivo: analisar a comunicação não verbal entre enfermeiro e parturiente durante a fase ativa do trabalho de parto em dois países lusófonos. Método: estudo quantitativo analítico, cuja amostra foi composta por 709 interações que utilizaram a comunicação não verbal dos enfermeiros e parturientes. As variáveis analisadas foram: distância; postura; eixo; contato; gestos emblemáticos; gestos ilustradores e gestos reguladores. Para a análise dos dados, utilizaram-se os testes de Qui-Quadrado e Razão de Verossimilhança. Resultados: a distância íntima entre enfermeiro e parturiente nos dois países (p=0,005) prevaleceu. Em ambos, o toque foi a forma de contato (p<0,0001) mais usada. Nos dois países, as parturientes permaneceram deitadas (p<0,0001). Em relação ao contato estabelecido (p<0,0001), as parturientes não usaram contato. O eixo face a face predominou nas interações em ambos os países entre enfermeiro-parturiente (p<0,0001) e parturiente-enfermeiro (p<0,0001). Conclusão: perceberam-se semelhanças nos aspectos de comunicação não verbal entre enfermeiros e parturientes nos dois países. No entanto, observam-se diferenças como o contato estabelecido entre os enfermeiros brasileiros e cabo-verdianos à parturiente.

En relación al contacto establecido (p<0,0001) las parturientas no usaron contacto. El eje cara a cara predominó en las interacciones en los dos países, entre enfermero-parturienta (p<0,0001) y parturienta-enfermero (p<0,0001). Conclusión: se percibió semejanzas en los aspectos de comunicación no verbal entre enfermeros y parturientas en los dos países. Sin embargo, se observan diferencias como es el caso del contacto establecido entre los enfermeros brasileños y los de Cabo Verde con la parturienta.

Challenges to the improvement of obstetric care in maternity hospitals of a large Brazilian city: an exploratory qualitative approach on contextual issues.

BACKGROUND: Maternal morbidity and mortality are still serious public health concerns in Brazil, and access to quality obstetric care is one critical point of this problem. Despite efforts, obstetric care quality problems and sub-optimal/poor outcomes persist. The study aimed to identify contextual elements that would potentially affect the implementation of an obstetric care quality improvement intervention. METHODS: A qualitative study was conducted in three public maternity hospitals of a large Brazilian city, with high annual volume of births and buy-in from high-level managers. Individual interviews with doctors and nurses were conducted from July to October 2015. Semi-structured interviews sought to explore teamwork, coordination and communication, and leadership, being open to capture other contextual elements that could emerge. Interviews were recorded and transcribed, and the categories of analysis were identified and updated based on the constant comparative method. RESULTS: Twenty-seven interviews were carried out. Extra-organizational context concerning the dependence of the maternity hospitals on primary care units, responsible for antenatal care, and on other healthcare organizations' services emerged from interviews, but the main findings of the study centered on intra-organizational context with potential to affect healthcare quality and actions for its improvement, including material resources, work organization design, teamwork, coordination and communication, professional responsibility vis-à-vis the patient, and leadership. A major issue was the divergence of physicians' and nurses' perspectives on care quality, which in turn negatively affected their capacity to work together. CONCLUSION: Overall, the findings suggest that care on the maternity hospitals was fragmented and lacked continuity, putting at risk the quality. Redesigning work organization, promoting conditions for multi-professional teamwork, better communication and coordination, improving more systemic accountability/lines of authority, and investing in team members' technical competence, and fitness of organizational structures and processes are all imbricated actions that may contribute to obstetric care quality improvement.

Interdisciplinary Team Huddles for Fetal Heart Rate Tracing Review.

To address an increase in unexpected poor outcomes in term neonates, our team developed a goal of high reliability and improved fetal safety in the culture of the Labor and Delivery nursing department. We implemented interdisciplinary reviews of fetal heart rate, along with a Category II fetal heart rate management algorithm and a fetal heart rate assessment rapid response alert to call for unscheduled reviews when needed. Enhanced communication between nurses and other clinicians supported an interdisciplinary approach to fetal safety, and we observed an improvement in health outcomes for term neonates. We share our experience with the intention of making our methods available to any labor and delivery unit team committed to safe, high-quality care and service excellence.

Consequences of Delayed, Unfinished, or Missed Nursing Care During Labor and Birth.

: The purpose of this study was to examine the concept of delayed, unfinished, or missed nursing care when patient census and acuity exceed nurse staffing resources with nurses who care for women during labor and birth. Focus groups were held during which labor nurses were asked about aspects of nursing care that may be regularly delayed, unfinished, or completely missed during labor and birth, including possible reasons and potential consequences. Seventy-one labor nurses participated in 11 focus groups in 6 hospitals. Nurses focused on support and encouragement as aspects of care that they felt are essential but often not able to be performed when the unit is busy. Nurses seemed to assume technical features of care as a "given" in the background and not always noticed unless missed. They voiced concerns about risks to maternal and fetal well-being when they were short-staffed. Potential outcomes were discussed including cesarean birth, depressed infants at birth, hemorrhage, and negative effects on patient satisfaction, successful breast-feeding, and the overall patient experience. CONCLUSION: When essential aspects of nursing care are delayed, unfinished, or completely missed, there are potentially negative implications for numerous patient outcomes and patient safety is at risk.
