Abstract

Institutions that adopt scientific-evidence based practices to assist during delivery are significant players to inspire, strengthen and consolidate a new model. The aim was to describe the social and demographic characteristics, the clinical and obstetric conditions and the prevalence of interventions during labor and delivery. This is a cross-section study with a probabilistic sample of 830 women, who had spontaneous delivery, attended by nurse-midwives, between January and December 2001. The results showed: artificial rupture of membranes = 75.1%; ocytocin = 44.5%; electronic fetal monitoring = 12.3%; episiotomy = 26.5%; lateral position at labor = 52.0% and supine = 31.0%.
