Abstract: The problematization of teenage pregnancy and its care through prenatal care, being
multifactorial, permeated by social and cultural prejudices, poses challenging factors for the practice
of nurses in Primary Care. Objective: Highlight the role of the nurse in the sensitized reection of
care, to establish bonds and trust, fundamental for the humanization of this process. Methodology:
Integrative review of the literature developed with original articles, published between 2018 and
2023, with the theme of teenage pregnancy and nursing care. Results: It was constructed from
this study that the concept of sensitized reection on the care of pregnant adolescents must value
their biographies, their values, their fears and desires; characterizing the nurses performance

free from prejudice and prejudgment, stigma, aggression or discrimination. Final considerations:
It is suggested that the role of nurses working in Primary Health Care is to recommend and
ensure that care for pregnant adolescent women, a population so fragile and vulnerable, is
more welcoming, attentive, warm, harmonious and humanized than their current practices.

Introduction
Teenage pregnancy is a major challenge for public health in Brazil and is approached as a
global problem. In Brazil, the Child and Adolescent Statute (ECA), Law 8,069, of 1990, considers a
person to be a person up to 12 years of age and denes adolescence as the age group from 12 to 18
years of age (article 2) , and, in exceptional cases and when provided by law, the statute is applicable
until the age of 21 (articles 121 and 142). The Ministry of Health warns that pregnancy in this age
group can have an impact on the health of mothers and newborns, considering that the adolescent’s
body is not always physiologically prepared for the development of pregnancy. Other risks, in addition
to the biological, are also highlighted, such as greater vulnerability related to the social situation,
lack of information and lack of emotional competence, which can cause aggravating factors in the
pregnancy-puerperal cycle, in the care of the newborn and in self-care. maternal.
Assistance to pregnant teenagers generally takes place in the Primary Health Care Unit
through prenatal consultations with nurses. Monitoring activities include providing guidance on the
specic aspects of pregnancy, care for yourself and the baby, so that pregnancy and childbirth occur
with less risk of complications.
On the other hand, prenatal care for adolescents still falls far short of what is recommended,
especially in terms of oering guidance, early recruitment and continuity of care. Guidance/education
activities are neglected due to excessive professional duties, other demands and restricted time
101

for prenatal consultations. In view of what has been said, nursing has an important role through
humanized reception, attracts trust, ensuring that prenatal care is carried out with total transparency
and on a monthly basis.
There are principles that must be obeyed and respected in part of the assistance when seeking
the quality of the service applied to the ESF - Family Health Strategy, such as: rst contact, which
is access to the use of services for which care is sought health; longitudinality , characterized by the
regulatory and consistent provision of care by the healthcare team, in a humanized environment, with
a mutual relationship between healthcare teams, individuals and families; comprehensiveness, which
is the set of services that address the populations most common problems, both in terms of biological
and psychological and social problems, which are the cause of the disease, and coordination, which is
the ability to guarantee continuity of care.
Methodology
This is an integrative review of the literature, carried out in ve stages: identication of
the topic, selection of the research question, establishment of inclusion and exclusion criteria,
categorization of selected studies, analysis and interpretation of results and presentation of the review-
synthesis of knowledge.
As an exclusion criterion, publications that did not t the thematic proposal were discarded
from the research, that is, they did not t into the time frame between 2019 - 2023, publications that
did not have authors and dates, and duplicate publications were excluded. Materials that address the
male gender, elderly people and children and publications that do not have at least one of the selected
descriptors were excluded. We used: complete scientic articles that presented the nurse as a provider
of prenatal care.
The theme determined the construction, which represents an acronym for Patient/problem of
pregnant teenager obtaining interest from prenatal nursing care.

As this is a narrative literature review research, it presents a minimum risk, as it does not use
a direct sample with human beings and plagiarism should be considered a risk when the author of the
publication from which it was consulted is not referenced.
The benets for the researcher correspond to highlighting the scientic improvement of the
topic addressed; collecting data to understand the strategies used by nurses in adhering to prenatal
care for pregnant teenagers. Thus, the data collected aims to improve basic care for pregnant teenagers.
Analyzes
Adolescence is the period in which the transition from childhood to adulthood occurs. During
this period, biological, psychological and social transformations occur related to physical growth,
sexual maturation, acquisition of reproductive capacity that allow the development of an adult identity
inserted in the social environment.
It can be said that adolescence is nothing more than a period of transitions, mainly
physiological and psychological, encompassing numerous transformations, including bodily ones. In
the case of female adolescents, changes occur in hormonal levels, which favor changes in the breasts,
voice, hip, with menarche appearing, which would be her rst menstruation, which indicates that the
teenager has reached sexual maturity, reaching her reproductive capacity (MOREIRA et al, 2008).
Pregnancy and/or gestation is nothing more than the current condition in which a woman
nds herself, where the product resulting from conception is under the process of evolution and
development. Regarding teenage pregnancy, the signicant changes in the lives of young women can
be highlighted, as they are not prepared to assume the following roles of woman, wife and mother,
imposed by society, as pregnancy at this stage occurs early and without planning. becoming unwanted
(NOBREGA; BEZERRA, 2010).
Pregnancy in this population group has been considered a public health problem. It is
common and most often preventable and associated with negative consequences for teenagers who
103
ISSN: 2763-5724 / Vol. 04 - n 03 - ano 2024
become pregnant and for their children. It can lead to obstetric complications, with repercussions for
the mother and the newborn, as well as psychosocial and economic problems (LANGILLE, 2007
apud DOMINGOS, 2010).
According to Moreira et al. (2008, p.319):
The conicts experienced by teenagers upon discovering pregnancy occur in
the perception of this pregnancy as an unwanted event, in the fear of facing
such a situation in front of their family or partner, in the parents’ reaction to
the discovery of teenage pregnancy and are also highlighted below family
socioeconomic level, determinants of non-acceptance of pregnancy in these
adolescents.
In this way, teenagers will live in a world of doubts, perspectives and aictions, they will
try to become “mature” in a way, to be responsible even if this attempt becomes frustrated, they
will look for ways to deal with pregnancy and changes to their body. , as well as seeking resources
to earn income, whether through the help of their parents, their partner or their own means. Many of
the young women will try to deal with this process and others will not, as a pregnancy at a young age
would mean the end of their “freedom, their studies or even their social ties (HOGA, 2008).
According to Domingos (2010), abortion is often the only way out for teenagers and in this
challenge, they risk their own lives when they decide to terminate the pregnancy, using whatever
resources they have at hand. Regarding the negative repercussions of early pregnancy, it is also stated
according to Silva et al. (2012) that the consequences are identied as problems in the growth and
development of the adolescent as a whole, in addition to birth complications that generate risk factors
for the newborn such as prematurity, low birth weight, low agar index, among other complications.
Among the transformations that occur during pregnancy, we can mention the interaction
of these young women with the environment in which they live and their adaptation to society now
as a mother. Dropping out of school more and more frequently can mean dissatisfaction and lack
of personal fulllment for these women. according to Menezes et al. (2012), everyones support is
essential for young mothers and/or pregnant women to continue their studies if they wish, as dropping
104
ISSN: 2763-5724 / Vol. 04 - n 03 - ano 2024
out of school leads to failure, limiting the possibility of building nancial independence.
The life changes generated by pregnancy are closely associated with the socioeconomic level
of origin; at higher socioeconomic levels; pregnancy generated fewer changes in the marital status of
adolescents; There is no need to interfere with your individual development plan. However, the same
does not happen at lower socioeconomic levels, where the adolescent is considered fully responsible
for the baby. Unplanned pregnancy is responsible for a series of problems linked to maternal and
perinatal reproductive health and presents several risks. (DINIZ; KOLLER et al., 2012, p. 311).
Physiological and psychological characteristics are altered, at this stage anxiety and stress are
present; Therefore, the occurrence has important impacts on the provision of prenatal care, guidance
on breastfeeding and child morbidity rates (ARAUJO et al., 2015).
While feelings characterized as bad are generated in some teenagers, such as fear, doubt,
uncertainty, insecurity, sadness, discouragement, abandonment, among others that are so common,
we see a dierent repercussion in another group of teenagers, as they appear satised, happy, complete,
joyful.
Hoga ’s perception (2008, p.5):
In other adolescents, the feelings expressed regarding pregnancy were die-
rent; as many of them changed their lifestyle after incorporating the maternal
role, they distanced themselves from the streets and certain friends to dedica-
te themselves and pay attention to their children, these changes represented a
signicant qualitative leap in the lives of these young women, with a feeling
of happiness and satisfaction in relation to “being a mother”.
The feelings expressed by the young women depend to some extent on the reaction of their
partners and other family members in relation to their pregnancy. The dreams often reported by
young women and then “moms” consist of priorities such as promoting their own living conditions
and that of their children to guarantee a future for both and maintain the family (HOGA, 2008).
As much as pregnancy becomes a disorder even in its initial phase due to the lack of support
from the partner who was previously also responsible for what happened; as well as the familys non-
105
ISSN: 2763-5724 / Vol. 04 - n 03 - ano 2024
acceptance and even denial of the pregnancy, young women are able to realize, even if belatedly, that
if a plan is not drawn up for them and a goal created so that they can reach the end of this process
“well”; they will not be able to promote means to guarantee the quality of life of this conceived being,
willpower and desire then grow within these future mothers; making the child desired, wanted and
loved while still in the womb.
However, when this young woman does not become suciently mature and suers greatly
from rejection or assimilates that this being has become an “evil”, directly aecting her relationships,
her dating life, her studies, her bonds between them and the bonds of friendship; If she tries to put
an end to all this or closes herself in a world of disappointments for the rest of her life, her health
will not be restored, which could lead to disorders, including psychological ones. The burden will
fall on the child, such as detachment, lack of love, recursiveness, lack of care, among other factors
considered unacceptable for the development and growth of this being considered fragile and without
understanding about the new world that awaits him.
According to Rocha (2013, p.14):
Teenagers, who become pregnant and publicly engage in clandestine beha-
vior, quickly go from being daughters to mothers, from wanting to be held to
being held, in a violent transformation from a woman still in training to an
adult woman, a mother, living in a conicting and , in most cases, painful. “If
being a mother is dicult for an adult woman, she has diculty intervening
with her partner, but it is dicult for a teenager to take on the new role.”
(ROCHA, 2013, p.14)
It is very important that the teenager has the opportunity to put her pieces together and fulll
her role as a woman, teenager and citizen. She needs to be whole and fulll her role as a woman,
teenager and citizen. She needs to be whole to live the role of mother and allow herself to have new
relationships or not, plan her sexual activity, rethink her school and professional life, reacquire and
stimulate her self-esteem so that she can, as is her right, live fully. According to Rocha (2013, p. 14)

Around the world, around 10% of total annual births are to teenagers. Of
the total live births in 2000 in Brazil, 0.9% of live births were identied to
mothers between 10 and 14 years of age and 22.4% of live births to mothers
between 15 and 19 years of age (ARAUJO et al., 2015 ).
According to the Ministry of Health (MS), the number of pregnant teenagers in Brazil fell
by around 17% between 2004 and 2015, the information was evaluated based on the Live Births
Information System ( Sinasc ), the drop indicated was from 661.2 thousand live births in 2004 to
546.5 thousand in 2015 among teenage mothers aged 10 to 19 years. Since the highest concentration in
the number of pregnant women belongs to the Northeast region, there are 180 thousand births which
corresponds to 32% of the total, the remaining positions are occupied by the Southeast Region 179.2
thousand (32%); North Region 81.4 thousand (14%); South Region 62,475 (11%) and Central West
43,342 (8%).
Nursing care during pregnancy during adolescence is a recurrent and current problem in
public health, each year the rates have increased, the immaturity of the still young mother and the
non-solidication of the alternating changes in relation to the transition from childhood to adult life
leads to several problems including psychological and family issues, these adolescents often try to
hide their pregnancy and this makes it dicult for them to be included in prenatal care programs, so
that there is safe monitoring of the mother-child binomial and identication of a risky pregnancy or
not for referral to reference units with specialized support (FERREIRA; RIBEIRO, 2010).
The nursing care provided to pregnant teenagers occurs in the primary health sector, the
basic care units, the famous ESF (Family Health and Strategy), formerly known as the PSF (Family
Health Program), whose objective is to monitor every pregnancy through from the knowledge of its
existence until the end, as long as it is proven that it does not pose fetal and/or maternal risks.
The care provided by the health team that makes up the ESF in its routine consists of
collecting data such as family history, history of current or previous illnesses, number of pregnancies,
socioeconomic history, use of contraceptive methods or not, among other information pertinent to
107

know the health-illness relationship of the young woman, identies the gestation period in weeks,
requests exams such as (ultrasound, preventive and blood analysis) and guides the young woman
about each trimester and the changes in her body, thus scheduling subsequent consultations (return
according to gestational age).
According to Silva et al. (2016), prenatal care is legally supported in relation to the nurses
professional performance, so that there is full monitoring of low-risk pregnant women in the basic
health network and in the Family Health Strategy Program, in this way the nurse makes it capable of
carrying out womens health care actions during prenatal care, it would be expected in a certain way
that these professionals would be responsible for the type of assistance then provided.
In accordance with Law 7,498 of July 25, 1986, which regulates the Professional Practice of
Nursing and describes that:
The nurse is responsible for carrying out nursing consultations and prescri-
bing nursing care; as a member of the health team: prescribe medications,
as long as they are established in Public Health Programs and in a routine
approved by the health institution; oer nursing care to pregnant women, wo-
men in labor and women who have recently given birth and carry out health
education activities (BRASIL, 1986, p. 9273).
For the prenatal consultation to occur in a humanized and quality manner, it is essential that
there is organization of health services at all stages of care from the rst consultation to be carried out,
obeying all the rules and routines of the institutions providing the services. said services. According to
Silva et al. (2016), it is necessary to prepare professionals who are attentive and sensitive to the needs
of women and their families; the use of health technologies that allow progress and good consultation
terms, and nally, the follow-up of care in a holistic and comprehensive manner.
According to Silva et al. (2016, p. 4091), the limits of the nurses role in carrying out prenatal
consultations are described in the following sub-items:
a) prenatal care centered on the biomedical model; b) the precariousness of
108
ISSN: 2763-5724 / Vol. 04 - n 03 - ano 2024
resources related to the physical area, human and material resources; c) lack
of knowledge of the nurse’s work and the nursing consultation; d) the need
for greater professional qualication; e) the educational model based on the
traditional model; f) the lack of systematization of assistance.
The assistance provided throughout the pregnancy period should not be restricted to the
biomedical model, as it ends up becoming mechanized assistance focused only on biological and
physiological aspects, which contributes to the removal of clients/patients from prenatal care, as no
bonds are established. In this way, the distance between professionals and women becomes evident,
since their needs are put aside, which undermines the relationship of trust between professional and
patient (SILVA et al., 2016).
Care must be centered on welcoming, communication (listening), interaction, the nurses
commitment and the establishment of bonds, the pregnant woman must become an “active being” in
the process of being a mother, throughout the care she must respect their privacy. The adequacy of
consultations takes place through the human and material resources available, as well as the space
available for care and to carry out educational activities. In relation to the space, this must provide
security for the adolescent and the service provider, since your thoughts, your doubts, your fears will
be exposed; where the professional will provide clarications regarding the health education variant
in each case presented, it is understood that this young person is an integral being with a particular
history (SILVA et al., 2016).
According to Silva et al. (2016), it is during the nursing consultation that relevant information
about the gestational process is collected, it is where the necessary support and guidance is given,
the prevention of injuries is sought, the development of group activities is established for stimulation
and inclusion of adolescents in prenatal care, thus favoring a peaceful and safe gestational period by
providing a safe and favorable environment for educational actions aimed at promoting health.
According to Bittencourt (2010, p. 40), the nurse is responsible for Pre-Natal Care:
Early detection, Pregnancy diagnosis – BHCG (Beta Chorionic Gonadotro-
109
ISSN: 2763-5724 / Vol. 04 - n 03 - ano 2024
pin Hormone), Health information/guidance, Low-risk prenatal consultation,
Classication of gestational risk, Request and evaluation of routine labora-
tory tests and obstetric USG, Request for complementary exams, Prescription
of Folic Acid and Ferrous Sulfate (according to the institution’s rules and
routines), Prescription of tetanus vaccination (double adult), Home visit, Re-
gistration in the card and perinatal form, Referrals for a visit to the maternity
ward, Registration in SISPRENATAL, Referral dentistry and nutrition.
According to the Ministry of Health (2012), prenatal care can be provided in health units or
during home visits, with the care schedule being programmed according to the gestational periods that
determine greater maternal and perinatal risk, however The calendar must start as early as possible,
preferably in the rst trimester, which must be regular, as the assessments proposed must be carried
out and recorded correctly in both the Pregnant Womans Card and the Pre-Natal Record.
The Ministry of Health also recommends a minimum of 6 (six) consultations; whenever
possible, they should be carried out according to the pre-established schedule: Up to the 28th week –
monthly; From the 28th to the 36th week every two weeks; From the 36th to the 41st week – weekly.
The increase in visits at the end of pregnancy is determined by the assessment of the risks that precede
the birth of the baby and clinical-obstetric complications, the most common in the trimester being
premature labor, pre-eclampsia and eclampsia, premature amniorrhexis and death. fetal. When labor
does not begin until the 41st week, it is necessary to evaluate the fetus, including the assessment of
the amniotic uid index and fetal heart monitoring. Therefore, it is necessary to refer the pregnant
woman to the care unit.
The role of a nurse also includes acting as an educator because “health education is important
for nursing care, as it can determine how individuals and families are capable of engaging in behaviors
that lead to excellent self-care” (ROCHA, 2013, p.16).
Health education should not be provided exclusively, requiring multidisciplinary participation,
that is, from all categories that work in health and provide assistance during the gestational period,
such as psychologists, social workers, obstetricians, dentists, nurses, healthcare technicians, nursing
among others.

“The nurse, as a health educator, works to prepare the individual for self-ca-
re and not for dependence, therefore being a facilitator in decision-making”
(ROCHA,2013, p. 17).
According to Andrade (2015, p. 22):
The nurse, as a professional trained to assist individuals at all stages of life,
needs to be included in the schools’ Sexual Education Program. Providing
actions and programs aimed at the health of adolescents and their families,
which must meet the real needs of both. It is essential that everyone, gover-
nment, health and education professionals, family, school and society do not
save money, not only to exercise their sexuality, but mainly to exercise their
rights responsibly, being respected and respecting others.
Measures to prevent and/or minimize the number of pregnant teenagers include implementing
education about sexuality, knowledge of the body and human reproduction. This education should be
included in schools, as well as other social issues such as drugs and teenage pregnancy, since it is in
schools that the largest number of young people are concentrated, however it is essential that there
is involvement of parents in this process . Among the proposals to intervene in early pregnancy,
one can try to delay the beginning of sexual activities, but for those who are already sexually
active, it is expected to adopt individual measures, which would be sexual education and the use of
contraceptives. Support groups could then be developed and recommended for adolescents who have
already conrmed their pregnancy (ANDRADE, 2015).
Final considerations
After explaining the topic, it is concluded that teenage pregnancy is directly related to
several social, emotional, economic and cultural factors. Therefore, nursing care should become a link
between young people and the outside world in order to minimize the number of teenage pregnancies,
111
ISSN: 2763-5724 / Vol. 04 - n 03 - ano 2024
since the local ESF becomes a reference, always seeking to understand and respond to the role of the
nursing team in this assistance, always aiming to promote quality of life.
It is the nurses role to present to these adolescents what contraceptive methods are and
how they should be handled, thus becoming the primary instrument in preventing the health of all
young people, even if at the moment adherence is low. The situation can be changed as soon as new
intervention and health promotion proposals are implemented.
Identication through literature of the number of pregnant teenagers in Brazil allows us to
collect data, enabling us to know which regions most need attention and which factors worsen this
situation, although the ministry records and reports the decrease In most cases, there is no guarantee
that this value will one day become null.
The development of activities aimed at adolescents during pregnancy is extremely important
to better capture them, direct care, the establishment of bonds and goals, allow them to understand
their life history and organize a camp according to their needs. The guidelines must always be
clear for better service, procedures should never be carried out that are not supported by the law on
professional practice (Law No. 7,498/86) and when characterized as high risk they will need to be
referred to a specialized service. Addressing teenage pregnancy involves identifying several factors
that lead a teenager to getting pregnant early, one of these factors being misinformation about sexual
health and sexuality, in addition to the erroneous use of contraceptives or lack thereof and limited
access to the health system, often due to shame, lack of family support and the partner when going to
appointments or due to psychological, social, emotional and economic factors.
The research found that, when teenagers are going through this phase of pregnancy,
they have to take on greater responsibility with the arrival of the baby and in many cases, they
are not psychologically prepared to respond to such responsibility. Such responsibilities are already
identied when attending consultations, which are sometimes accessed late and, as a result, risks and
complications can occur throughout the pregnancy process, and these risks are minimized if followed
in adherence to Prenatal Care by a health professional, in this case the importance of the Nursing team
112

was highlighted, in other words. the nurse.
In the studies surveyed, Nursing is related to health care and care, with nurses enabling
the use of aective communication, qualied listening, educational practice actions, welcoming
consultations, the development of preventive actions and oering quality care as a strategy. outpatient
or emergency. Therefore, with this nursing care, the importance of these health professionals was
veried, that is, the nurse who preventively provides assistance to the mother, the baby, the partner,
that is, actions that encompass the entire family with the objective of avoiding risks and complications
during pregnancy, mainly educational and preventive actions.
In short, it is suggested that this article will contribute in the future to the area of Nursing and
thus, nurses or professionals linked to the health area who provide care to adolescents in pregnancy
will be successful in capturing this demand to adhere to Pre-Natal, in the rst months of pregnancy.
Furthermore, those who have access to this publication should explore it in a way that absorbs the
knowledge that was synthesized by future nursing professionals
