Aim:  to describe  the  profile  of  high-risk  pregnant  women  attending the  HUAP  maternity  hospital.  Method:  descriptive,  retrospective  and  documentary research, with a quantitative approach, performed at a hospital in Niterói/RJ. Data were collected in 2013, through 148 medical records of high-risk pregnant women admitted to the  hospital, from  July  1, 2011 to  June  30,  2012,  and treated  by  descriptive  statistics. Results:  the majority  of  the  pregnant  women were  young  (up  to 30 years  old),  with  a companion  and  resided  in  the  metropolitan  region  II/RJ.  Half  of  them  had  one  or  two living children; 59.5% were multigravida; 79.1% had never aborted; and, among those who  showed  previous  delivery  (n=93),  64.5%  had  submitted  to  cesarean  section. Regarding prenatal care, 93.3% presented attendance to the appointments. Most of the pregnant  women  went  to  the  hospital  through  their  own  choice (42.6%)  as  they presented  symptoms  of  general  practice. Fifty-nine cases  were identified 59 causes  for hospitalization,  with  higher  occurrence  due  to  premature  amniorrexis  and  arterial hypertension.  Conclusion:  the  presented  results  can  trigger  proposals  of  protocols  of attendance and monitoring of this clientele.

A Prospective Study

Abstract Background Development of the maternal antenatal attachment (MAA) constitutes an important aspect of the transition into motherhood. Early identification of women at risk of developing a poor MAA provides possibilities for preventive interventions targeting maternal mental health and the emerging mother-infant relationship. In this study, we investigate the relative importance of an extensive set of psychosocial, pregnancy-related, and physiological factors measured in the first trimester of pregnancy for MAA measured in third trimester. Methods A prospective study was conducted among pregnant women in Danish general practice (GP). Data were obtained in the first and the third trimester from pregnancy health records and electronic questionnaires associated with routine GP antenatal care visits. The Maternal Antenatal Attachment Scale (MAAS) was used to assess maternal antenatal attachment. The relative importance of potential determinants of maternal antenatal attachment was assessed by the relative contribution of each factor to the fit (R2) calculated from multivariable regression models. Results The sample consisted of 1328 women. Low antenatal attachment (Total MAAS ≤ 75) was observed for 513 (38.6%) women. Perceived social support (having someone to talk to and having access to practical help when needed) emerged as the most important determinant. Furthermore, scores on the MAAS decreased with worse self-rated health, poor physical fitness, depression, increasing age, having given birth previously, and higher education. Conclusion Pregnant women reporting lack of social support and general low physical and mental well-being early in pregnancy may be at risk for developing a poor MAA. An approach targeting both psychosocial and physiological well-being may positively influence expectant mothers’ successful adaptation to motherhood.

Physician Extenders

Objective psychological measurements and personal historical data were taken on 67 physician extenders in 5 consecutive classes at a southeastern university over 18 mo., October 1972 to April 1974. The findings describe certain psychological characteristics associated with physician-extender students and compare these profiles with various similar groups. The physician extender's general personality type resembles that of the general practice physician. Comparisons with medical students show them to be more concerned with pragmatic matters and implies preferences which most likely favor a technological occupation. All of these measurements are not, however, necessarily associated with academic or occupational success. Future studies should concern relationships between these measurements and criteria of academic and occupational success.
