Abstract

OLIVEIRA, Raquel de Maria Carvalho et al. Interdisciplinarity in the pregnants' bucal health from the nurses' perspective. Enfermería Actual de Costa Rica [online]. 2023, n.44, 53919. ISSN 1409-4568.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/enferm.actual.cr.i44.47269.

Introduction:

Dental follow-up in prenatal care represents a unique strategy with interdisciplinary action for the prevention of injuries in pregnant women and complications during childbirth.

Objective:

To identify the interdisciplinarity in prenatal dental care from the nurses' perspective.

Methodology:

This will be a qualitative approach study with based on the Gadamer and Habermas's hermeneutics-dialectic in six primary health care units in a metropolis in Northeast Brazil, with six nurses through in-depth interviews in 2018. The organization of the data occurred through Minayo's thematic analysis.

Results:

After the thematic analysis, the categories of ''The interdisciplinary care of the doctor, dentist, and nurse''and ''Nurse referral during prenatal dental care''were evidenced. There are implications for the development of interdisciplinary practices in prenatal dental care such as weaknesses in the continuity of care, communication, and the team's interaction.

Conclusion:

There is a need to expand the comprehensiveness for the quality in the development of healthcare for pregnant women and the reduction of maternal and neonatal complications in populations of Brazilian women.
