Maternity is a complex process that is determined by objective and subjective factors. Despite being inherent to all human beings, it is influenced by cultural elements that largely determine the behavior of the population towards motherhood. The objective of this research was to expose the elements related to the culturally appropriate name of childbirth from the nursing perspective based on a contemporary approach to motherhood, taking into account the particularities of the rheumatic patient. A global analysis of the basic and distinctive characteristics of maternity in different continents was carried out, based on the perspective of nursing care, to be compared with the process currently taking place in Ecuador; Additionally, attention was paid to the distinctive elements of care in rheumatic patients. The results show the differences that exist in the same process and show how cultural elements are capable of influencing the development and care of maternity in Ecuador. It is concluded that there are particularities in Ecuador that are distinctive in nursing care during maternity; These are influenced by regional customs, but retain their identity, evidencing the role that interculturality plays in each of the transcendental moments of human beings.

Keywords : culturality; pregnancy; gestation; humanized childbirth; culturally appropriate delivery.
