Resumo
Objetivo: Explorar situações de desrespeito, abuso ou negligência vivenciadas por puérperas durante a permanência em uma maternidade do interior do Brasil. Métodos: Estudo exploratório, descritivo e qualitativo com 27 puérperas, de 18 a 35 anos, com gestação de baixo risco e sinais de sofrimento psíquico. A coleta de dados incluiu informações sociodemográficas no pós-parto e entrevistas semiestruturadas. O referencial teórico foi o interacionismo simbólico, e a análise narrativa constituiu o referencial metodológico. Resultados: Vinte e quatro puérperas foram submetidas à cesariana e três ao parto vaginal. As narrativas revelaram dois achados principais: (I) O ambiente da maternidade foi cenário de situações de desrespeito, abuso ou negligência, de natureza verbal ou física. O abuso verbal incluiu grosserias, insultos e ausência de cuidado atencioso por parte dos profissionais de saúde. O abuso físico compreendeu atos que causaram danos corporais. (II) Fragilidade, impaciência e pouco tempo dedicado ao cuidado do binômio mãe-bebê. As narrativas de mulheres em enfermarias compartilhadas evidenciaram esses padrões. Conclusão: As puérperas estão vulneráveis a situações de desrespeito, abuso e negligência em maternidades do interior do Brasil. Os achados confirmam a persistência de práticas obstétricas desumanizadas, agressivas e inseguras, demandando ações para um cuidado respeitoso e seguro.
