Abstract
The specific activity of obstetrical nurses in childbirth care is prone to the adoption of inappropriate postures and movements, increasing muscle and ligament and joint stress, as well as the state of fatigue and the risk of work-related musculoskeletal injuries (LMELT) by cumulative traumatic disorders, with repercussions on their health and quality of life. This is why we invested in teaching and training in a controlled environment for students of the Master's Course in Maternal and Obstetric Health (CMESMO); Goals: to analyze the perception of students of the Master's Course in Maternal and Obstetric Health, on the contribution of training to the prevention of the risk of LMELT in their clinical practice; To identify the LMELT prevention strategies adopted, as a result of training included in the CMESMO of the Curricular Unit (UC) of Option: Biomechanics in Caring for Nurse Specialists in Maternal Health and Obstetrics (UC-BCEESMO). Methods: The focus group technique was used, carried out online, with the participation of four students, to develop a study with a qualitative approach. The data was organized using the WebQDA® software based on the content analysis of the speeches according to Bardin. Results: four categories emerged: contributions to awareness of risk factors; difficulties in adopting the principles of biomechanics; Strategies implemented in internship and Challenges/Suggestions. Conclusions: The importance of training given to students, obstetrical nurses, on the need to comply with the principles of biomechanics, taking into account the environment in the context of the Delivery Block, for the prevention of the risk of work-related musculoskeletal injuries, is highlighted. It is necessary to invest in peer training and research.
