ResumoObjetivO: Identificar o conhecimento e a percepção dos profissionais da saúde em relação à legislação brasileira sobre o aborto provocado. MétOdOs: Envelopes selados não identificados contendo os questionários foram enviados a todos os profissionais (n=149) que trabalham no Departamento de Obstetrícia de hospital universitário e de hospital público da periferia de São Paulo. Responderam ao questionário 119 profissionais. Para análise dos dados, utilizou-se intervalo de confiança de 0,05 e os testes exatos de Fischer e c 2 . ResultadOs: Dos profissionais entrevistados, 48,7% eram médicos, 33,6% profissionais da área de enfermagem e 17,6% eram profissionais de outras áreas (psicólogos, nutricionistas, fisioterapeutas, administrativos e técnicos de laboratórios). Constatou-se diferença significativa (p=0,01) na proporção de profissionais que acreditam que o aborto por malformação fetal não letal e no aborto decorrente de gestações não planejadas deveriam ser incluídos na legislação brasileira. Observou-se que o conhecimento da legislação e da descrição das situações permitidas por lei acerca do aborto foi significativamente diferente na comparação entre os profissionais de saúde (p=0,01). Quando questionados sobre as situações em que a legislação brasileira permite o aborto, observou-se que 32,7% dos médicos, 97,5% profissionais da área de enfermagem e 90,5% dos demais profissionais desconhecem a legislação vigente. COnClusãO: Neste estudo, evidenciou-se o desconhecimento dos profissionais de saúde com relação à legislação brasileira, em menor proporção entre obstetras e em maior proporção entre os profissionais da área de enfermagem. Foram constatadas atitudes de discriminação, julgamento e preconceito na assistência prestada às mulheres que provocam o aborto. AbstractPuRPOse: To identify the knowledge and awareness of health professionals regarding the Brazilian legislation on induced abortion. MethOds: Unidentified sealed envelopes containing the questionnaires were sent to all professionals (n=149) working in the Obstetrics Department of a university hospital and public hospital at the periphery of São Paulo (SP), Brazil. A total of 119 professionals responded to the questionnaire. The 0.05 confidence interval and the Fisher exact test and c 2 test were used for data analysis. Results: Of the respondents, 48.7% were physicians, 33.6% were nursing professionals and 17.6% were professionals from other fields (psychologists, nutritionists, physiotherapists, laboratory technicians and administrators). There was a significant difference (p=0.01) in the proportion of professionals who believe that abortion for non-lethal fetal malformation and due to unplanned pregnancies should be included in the Brazilian legislation. It was observed that the knowledge about the law and the description of the circumstances allowed by law on abortion was significantly different when comparing health professionals (p=0.01). When asked about the situations in which Brazilian law allows abortion, 32.7% of physicians, 97.5% of nur...

Conflict of interest: noneObjective: to analyze women's perception in relation to their partner's reaction and behavior during the abortion process in two Brazilian capitals, associating the variables from women who suffered a spontaneous abortion with those from women who induced it. Methods: semi-structured, questionnaire-based interviews were conducted with 285 women who underwent spontaneous abortion and 31 who reported having induced it. The data were analyzed using the thematic analysis technique, and, subsequently, by the IBM SPSS Statistics Standard Edition software program. The significance level was set at p < 0.05. Results: in both capitals, the women who induced an abortion referred to the partner as the person who could not find out about the abortion (p<0.01 in Natal; p = 0.02 in São Paulo-SP) and, simultaneously, as the one who could have avoided it (p < 0.01 in Natal; p = 0.03 in São Paulo). In Natal-RN, induced abortion was associated with the partner's absence at the time pregnancy was confirmed (p = 0.02) and, in Sao Paulo-SP, with their negative reaction to news of the pregnancy (p = 0.04) and lack of participation in the abortion process (p < 0.01). Conclusion: despite having achieved independence, women still regard male participation in the abortion process as an important factor. The specifics of each capital denote the influence of the geographic and cultural dimension, indicating the need to take into account the particulars of each region in Brazil while considering a holistic approach to women's health.

We found that religion can be a protective factor against suicidal behavior. Besides providing a social support network needed by women during pregnancy, religion supports belief in life after death and in a loving God, giving purpose to life and self esteem and providing models for coping with crises. The results show the importance of prevention and early diagnosis of suicidal behavior, since suicide is an attempt to move from one sphere to another by force, seeking to solve what seems impossible.
