Objectives: to identify and to discuss the frequency of the prenatal and puerperal care of pregnant women from the eastern zone of São Paulo city, São Paulo State, Brazil, categorizing it according to the Kessner Index modified in 1993 by Takeda. We used the data available on the card ofpregnant woman and the discharge summaries, correlating the results with the indicators of severity in childbirth. Methods: this is a descriptive, cross-sectional quantitative study based on the analysis of the variables of the pregnant woman's card and the diagnoses identified in the discharge summaries. Data were collected through a field survey conducted in the Eastern zone of the city of São Paulo city, São Paulo State, Brazil. A statistical analysis was used to identify associations between the categorization and the severity indicators listed in the discharge summaries. Results: it was observed that prenatal care in the Eastern zone of São Paulo city, São Paulo State, Brazil was classified as intermediate (56.9%) in the majority of women. Regarding this categorization with the severity indicators, there is a higher incidence of risks for inappropriate categorization (8.89%) when compared to the appropriate (1.67%) and the intermediate (4.44%) ones. Conclusions: it was possible to conclude that the more adequate prenatal care, the lower the chances of unfavorable outcomes and incidence of risks. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Failures in patient safety are a global health priority, as they are associated with morbidity, mortality, and increased hospital costs. This study evaluated the perception of managers regarding the adherence of a public hospital to NPSP, providing data that could be used to reduce service failure. Data were collected through structured interviews with 43 hospital managers using the Survey Monkey® platform. The interviews showed that the patient's safety culture was not widespread in the institutions. The security incident with damage is recognized by 71.2% of managers, compromising identification, notification and investigation of security flaws, as well as the planning and development of actions for their correction and prevention. When a fault is identified, in 21% of cases it is not notified, and investigation and disclosure of corrective actions are not made in all cases. It was concluded that the hospital's adherence to NPSP is incipient. The existence of a patient safety core in hospital does not guarantee notification of all cases of patient safety failures. Strategies should be developed to increase safety culture in hospitals, increase reporting of adverse events, and thereby improve health care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Brazilian Ministry of Health asserts that the prenatal and puerperal cares are extremely important to a healthy pregnancy and to the wellbeing of mother and fetus. In this context, the Pregnant Card and the Sisprenatal register - an informational system for monitoring health of both mother and baby - has been deployed in the Brazilian Unified National Health System. To improve the quality of information and medical care practiced for pregnant women. The Pregnant Card has the purpose of being used by the health professionals enabling the exchange of information for a better outpatient and hospital care. Any failure to fill out a Pregnant Card or Sisprenatal register can reduce the quality of prenatal care at all levels of care and management with insufficient data to plan, control and evaluate health programs. Thus, this research aims to verify the compatibility between information from Pregnant Card and computerized web system Sisprenatal of pregnant women. We carried out a quantitative research with descriptive design, with 150 pregnant women who attend an obstetrical emergency hospital on the east side of Sao Paulo - SP, Brasil. The researchers analyzed variables related to pregnant women, conduction of the mandatory actions of prenatal care, data related to the service, and data related to Sisprenatal. The results proved that there is compatibility between data from both sources (Pregnant Card and Sisprenatal system) in only 20% of the cases analyzed. Therefore, this is a very relevant study, since it intends to contribute to the health professionals involved in the care of the puerperal and her baby, providing data and offering a picture about the difficulties encountered by health professionals who attend directly the pregnant women and the managers who do not have complete information for the management of the health system.
