Короткий опис (реферат):
Maternity care given by obstetricians, midwives, nurses, and other clinicians during one of the most vulnerable periods of pregnancy - labor, and
delivery- is complex. It is influenced by physical and medical resources, the training of the medical providers, implicit societal and cultural attitudes
towards pregnant people, and other implicit biases based on race, religion, ethnicity, and socioeconomic factors. Global strides in reducing maternal
morbidity and mortality have stalled over the past several years. An increasing body of evidence has revealed disrespectful and abusive care (D&A) in
facility-based childbirth as a barrier to maternal and child health. D&A consists of physical abuse, non-consented care, non-confidential care, nondignified care, discrimination, abandonment of care, and detention in facilities. D&A is sometimes referred to as obstetric violence. Several Latin
American countries have developed a legal framework to define and criminalize such violence.
