The present article is generated from the results of the research: Beliefs and cultural care practices of women with extreme maternal morbidity (Hoyos & Muñoz, 2017). Objective: To describe the cultural care beliefs and practices of women who had extreme maternal morbidity, who were not in control of prenatal care and who were treated at hospital in the city of Medellín, Colombia. Sample: 17 women with extreme maternal morbidity, not in control of prenatal care. Method: Qualitative, ethnographic, using ethno-nursing proposed by Leininger and Spradley's ethnographic interview. Results: 3 general topics and 2 taxonomies were found. Conclusions: The study concluded that women with extreme maternal morbidity, who do not have prenatal care, have their own ways of caring for themselves and their unborn child when they are sick, because access to maternal health services is poor. |
