BOAS PRÁTICAS OBSTÉTRICAS PARA UM PARTO SEGURO: ESTUDO DE VALIDAÇÃO.

Public policies in the field of maternal and child health have pointed to the importance of humanizing care through the adoption of good practices based on scientific evidence that respect women's rights, individuality, integrality and autonomy. In this sense, this study aims to validate the content of an instrument that aims to assess the use of good obstetric practices by health professionals in the care of safe delivery. This is a methodological research, with a quantitative approach, based on the validation of an instrument based on the content validation technique according to Pasquali. Ten judges participated in the research, five of whom were doctors and five nurses who work in direct assistance to women during the delivery period. The instrument was validated for its content, and more than 80% of the 23 items proposed in the instrument were considered representative to assess the use of good obstetric practices in the care for safe delivery.
