“…19 Therefore, the woman's desire to eat and drink should not be interfered with during labor, since labor requires an enormous amount of energy, given the unpredictability of its duration. Therefore, it is necessary to replace the parturient's energy sources in order to guarantee fetal and maternal well-being, and severe restriction of water intake can lead to dehydration.…”

Método: Estudo descritivo e exploratório com abordagem qualitativa, desenvolvido com dez mulheres primíparas, nos meses de fevereiro a abril de 2014. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevista semiestruturada e analisados pela proposta operativa de Minayo. Este estudo obteve aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, sob CAEE 26452313.8.0000.5346. Resultados: Foram estruturados em três categorias a partir do Guia Prático da Organização Mundial da Saúde com recomendações de práticas seguras no parto normal. Conclusão: Considera-se a necessidade de repensar e reformular práticas de cuidado institucionais que se encontram em desuso e investir em educação continuada e na prática de cuidados que contribuem para evolução fisiológica do parto.

A c c e p t e d M a n u s c r i p t 2 2 SummaryObjectives. ─ The objective of our work was to determine the effects of co-interventions used during labor with oxytocin or for labor dystocia.Methods. ─ We searched for reports of the interventions we sought to study published between 1987 and 2015, looking especially for meta-analyses and randomized trials via the Medline database and the Cochrane Library. We limited our research to studies of spontaneous labor in singleton pregnancies at term. Conclusions. ─ Few of the co-interventions studied appear to modulate recourse to oxytocin.

“…Food restriction is originated by the knowledge of Mendelson spread in the 1940s [19,20]. However, revisions of random studies conclude there are no benefits or significant threats that justify the restriction of liquids and food in low-risk women [20].…”

“…In the mother with nutritional deficiency, labor can be prolonged and more painful, besides fasting does not guarantee an empty stomach. Labor requires an effort of 295 Kcal on average [21] and current belief is that it is the woman who can best judge the need to ingest [20]. This is a way to prevent dehydration, ketosis or hyponatremia [17].…”

Background:The World Health Organization recommends preserving the physiology of childbirth. For a normal birth, the guidelines define obstetric practices in four categories, ranging from useful and to be encouraged to harmful and to be eliminated. Objective: to describe new mothers' perception of care during childbirth in the light of the World Health Organization model. Methods: Cross-sectional study. A self-administered structured questionnaire was used for data collection. Convenience sample of 180 mothers. The average age was 30.8 years-old (SD=5.31). Results: On their own initiative, before leaving for the maternity, women carried out at home, some care not recommended by World Health Organization, like pubic shaving (83.7%). Category A represents above all the lack of a birth plan (80.6%), mobility (71.3%), massage /54.2%) and light feeding (72.6%). Positively represented are skin-to-skin contact (77%) and breast-feeding (75.6%). Category B highlights intravenous fluids access (81.6%), lithotomy position for delivery (82.9%) and directed pushing (86.9%). Pubic shaving is recognized by about 22% of participants. The Kristeller maneuver or fundal pressure, is widely applied in Category D (59.9%), highlighting continuous cardiotocography (89.2%), repeated vaginal examination carried out by various professionals (78.5%) and episiotomy (69.2%). Conclusion: The World Health Organization model is weakly implemented. The medicalized culture of childbirth seems to predominate in phenomena of human nature.

Abstract: Background-Restricting fluids and foods during labour is common practice across many birth settings with some women only being allowed sips of water or ice chips. Restriction of oral intake may be unpleasant for some women, and may adversely influence their experience of labour.
