GONZALEZ BLANCO, Mireya  y  TORO MERLO, Judith. Respected Childbirth Care in Venezuela: Legal Foundations. Rev Obstet Ginecol Venez [online]. 2024, vol.84, n.3, pp.329-334.  Epub 07-Nov-2024. ISSN 0048-7732.  https://doi.org/10.51288/00840314.

Humanized childbirth is a model of care that considers respect for the opinions and needs of women and their families, and includes care during pregnancy, childbirth, puerperium and, of course, newborn care. In Venezuela, there is sufficient legislation that supports humanized or respected childbirth care, however, it is not known by a large part of the health personnel involved in obstetric care. Such legislation needs to be widely known and implemented. This review was conducted with the intention of reviewing the legal foundations that support respected childbirth care.

Palabras clave : Humanized childbirth; Respected childbirth; Natural childbirth; Positive birth experience.
