Abstract
Objective: To analyze how puerperal women perceived the assistance provided in the hospital environment in times of a pandemic by Covid-19. Methods: Cross-sectional analytical study with convenience sampling carried out between June and December 2021. Thirty-nine puerperal women with normal delivery in a maternity hospital were included. For data collection, a semi-structured instrument was applied to puerperal women with demographic data and related to prenatal care, delivery and puerperium. Data were organized and analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2010 with absolute frequency (n) and percentage (%). Results: The mothers were 35.9% between 15-19 years old, single (46.2%), elementary school 2 (43.2%), race/brown color (61.5%), first pregnancy (48.7%), they felt protected during reception and risk classification (84.1%), labor (100%), delivery (91.7%) and puerperium (63.9%), 55.6% used a mask, of those who did not use it, 70% did not feel afraid and 76.3% did not receive information about Covid-19 in the puerperium. Conclusion: The mothers reported that they felt protected from the transmission of Covid-19 throughout the parturition process, they used a mask, and those who did not, did not feel afraid of transmission.
