ABSTRACT
Just 10 years ago, the term critical care in obstetrics was virtually unknown, reserved for a few scenarios. And is that the pregnant women, not infrequently in our environment, for a pregnancy-related condition, or sometimes aggravated by, or even incidentally and almost always rowdy, threatened their lives, imposing the need for a broad knowledge not only of the physiology and pathology, but also of obstetric anesthesia and critical care. The attention in these units requires subjectivity, qualification, sensitivity and ethics. It is essential in the scene, great communication skills and relationship skills: active listening, respect, empathy, and compassion. That is why when we opened the "Obstetric Intensive Care Unit", we promote a new paradigm: breastfeeding into the unit, determined to avoid the higher of the detachment that happens in the post-partum the binomial "mother-newborn" because of the income of the obstetric critical in therapy, becoming the humanized care in specialized care. In this article, we will show you the way in which breastfeeding was implementted, under a "guide" and two periods in which results were measured (year 2014 and 2016).REFERENCES
