Perfil das mulheres submetidas à cesariana segundo Classificação de Robson: pesquisa de campo

The Robson Scale classifies pregnant women into 10 groups, which are inclusive and exclusive for the recommendation of cesarean section. The groups are formed by five obstetric characteristics, namely: parity (nulliparous or multiparous with and without previous cesarean section), onset of delivery (spontaneous, induced or cesarean section before the start of labor), gestational age (preterm or term), fetal presentation/situation (cephalic, pelvic or transverse) and number of fetuses (single or multiple)(3).Based on the above considerations, the object of this study was to characterize women undergoing cesarean section in a public hospital in the coastal lowlands of the state of Rio de Janeiro, according to the Robson Scale classification.The present study aims to improve the use of surgical intervention at birth, provide important indicators through collected epidemiological data, for the development of measures that help to reduce the high rates of cesarean sections in this unit. In addition to being an instrument that, after being made public, will contribute to changes in women's understanding regarding the high rate of cesarean sections in groups of parturients who do not have certain characteristics that justify the performance of this surgical procedure.Likewise, it aims to offer statistical support that fosters in the Hospital, the setting of the study, the interest in developing protocols about cesarean section indications, based on scientific evidence, as well as developing strategies that are aimed at the continuous training of the teams that work directly in the birthing process and consequently, minimize the obstacles that favor the surgical procedure in the unit, so that from this perspective it is possible to collaborate in the construction of the care network, based on humanized care, in order to improve the experience of women and family in the pregnancy, delivery and postpartum process.
