SILVA MARTINEZ, Mercy et al. Nursing care for the tertiary prevention of some complications associated with postpartum. MEDISAN [online]. 2024, vol.28, n.1  Epub 29-Feb-2024. ISSN 1029-3019.

Introduction:

The nursing care process includes actions aimed at preventing diseases during postpartum period.

Objective:

To describe the process of nursing care for the tertiary prevention of some complications related to postpartum.

Methods:

An observational descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out at Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso Teaching General Hospital in Santiago de Cuba, from January to December, 2022, that included 2 population groups integrated by 225 newly-delivered women and 80 nurses. The variables studied were the following: complications, type of care, working time with newly-delivered women and level of knowledge about prevention.

Results:

In the series there was a prevalence of the hemorrhage (36.4%), pre-eclampsia and thromboembolism (26.0 and 21.1%, respectively) as main complications, besides the care of standardized type (56.5%) and the inadequate knowledge on prevention (58.7%).

Conclusions:

Nursing care for the tertiary prevention of some complications is offered fundamentally to newly-delivered women with pre-eclampsia, thromboembolism and hemorrhages, reason why the standardized care requires more preparation of the staff that intervenes in the process.
