“…Nevertheless, it is clear that among the available methods, knowledge does not always cover the range of questions and, in practice, the most prescribed methods are simple analgesics, antispasmodics and epidural analgesia.

The lack or absence of public policies in the regulation of labor analgesia methods, combined with what the Department of Education and Culture advocates as a proposal for a medical residency program, in which this topic is neither emphasized nor addressed 30 , and the possibility of memory bias when sampling the data 24 , are potential limitations to be considered.…”

“…This evaluation was made using as reference a template developed from the literature review [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] . The level of knowledge of the study population was considered excellent (when more than 75% of the participants showed adequate knowledge on that question), good (between 50 and 75%), moderate (between 25 and 50%) and low (less than 25%) 6 . In the attitude dimension, the answers were dichotomized into "yes" and "no" and, in the practice dimension, into "prescribes" and "does not prescribe".…”
