A human rights violation, obstetric violence encompasses numerous forms of mistreatment against women giving birth in health care facilities. Based on this framework, we conducted open-ended exit interviews with 43 women who had given birth at either one of the two largest public maternity hospitals in the Dominican Republic. Women's narratives revealed a contrast between scholarly definitions of obstetric violence and their own perceptions of receiving abusive care. Analyzing obstetric violence as a form of reproductive governance and the adaptive preference that ensues helps explain why most women accepted with endurance the poor quality of care that they received.
一种侵犯人权的行为,产科暴力包括在医疗机构分娩的妇女遭受的多种形式的虐待。基于这一框架,我们对在多米尼加共和国最大的两家公立医院分娩的 43 名妇女进行了开放式离职访谈。女性的叙述揭示了学术上对产科暴力的定义与她们自己对接受虐待性护理的看法之间的对比。将产科暴力分析为一种生殖治理形式和随之而来的适应性偏好有助于解释为什么大多数妇女忍受了她们所接受的护理质量差的问题。
