Purpose The mistreatment of women during childbirth in health facilities is a growing area of research and public attention. Description In many countries, disrespect and abuse from maternal health providers discourage women from seeking childbirth with a skilled birth attendant, which can lead to poor maternal and neonatal outcomes. This commentary highlights examples from three countries-Kenya, Mexico and the United States-and presents different forms of mistreatment during childbirth, which range from physical abuse to non-consented care to discriminatory practices. Assessment Building on the momentum from the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics, and the Global and Maternal Neonatal Health Conference, the global community has placed respectful maternity care at the forefront of the maternal and neonatal health agenda. Conclusion Research efforts must focus on context-specific patient satisfaction during childbirth to identify areas for quality improvement.
医疗机构中分娩期间对妇女的虐待是一个日益受到研究和公众关注的领域。
在许多国家,孕产妇保健提供者的不尊重和虐待使妇女不愿寻求熟练接生员接生,这可能导致不良的孕产妇和新生儿结局。本评论突出了来自肯尼亚、墨西哥和美国这三个国家的例子,并呈现了分娩期间不同形式的虐待,从身体虐待到未经同意的护理再到歧视性做法。
基于联合国可持续发展目标、国际妇产科联合会以及全球和孕产妇新生儿健康会议的势头,全球社会已将尊重产妇护理置于孕产妇和新生儿健康议程的前沿。
研究工作必须专注于分娩期间特定背景下的患者满意度,以确定质量改进的领域。
