Atribuições dos enfermeiros frente ao planejamento familiar nas unidades básicas de saúde no Brasil: revisão integrativa

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Sexual and reproductive rights are popular in national and international laws. Family planning can be carried out individually by the man, the woman or the couple, regardless of a stable union and the option of forming or not a family. The term Family Planning has been replaced, nowadays, by Reproductive Planning, as it has become a more encompassed concept, as it is based on respect for sexual rights and reproductive rights of each citizen. Law No. 9,263, of January 12, 1996, in its 7th art. regulates the Family Planning Program in the country. Within the Family Planning Program, the Nurse can act in the organization, execution, coordination and evaluation of the program's actions, as well as consultations and prescriptions. OBJECTIVE: To list with the scientific bibliography, according to the duties of Nurses in the Family Planning Program in Primary Health Care in Brazil. METHOD: This is an Integrative Review, undertaken in the databases SCIELO, BDENF, CAPES journals, Google Scholar, Materials from the Ministry of Health, Ordinances, Regulations. We used as inclusion criteria the articles published after the normalization of Law 7,498 of June 25, 1986 and texts available in full. They were not included in the search for articles in foreign languages, Theses, Dissertations and Monographs. The exclusion criteria were based on the adequacy of the reviews carried out on the topic addressed. Data analysis was performed by categorizing the contents in view of their similarities. RESULTS: As authors carried out 64 critical reviews, of these 37 studies emerged that permeated the theme and guided the results and discussion of this research, there were two articles duplicated between reviews and totaled 27 excluded articles. There was also a search for Manuals and Regulations of the Federative Entities of Brazil, such as the MS, COFEN and COREN GO, finding 14 documents. DISCUSSION: The following categories were selected and discussed: Standardizing documents that support professional practice; Nurse in front of the Family Planning Program; Contraceptive methods most available in public health services in Brazil; Perceptions of professionals and users about the effectiveness of the PPF; and Importance of health education actions. CONCLUSION: The study concluded that the nurses' duties in relation to the Family Planning Program are assistance, promotion, prevention and health education. They carry out clinical consultations, prescriptions of contraceptive methods according to specific criteria of each UBS, dispensation of the methods offered in Primary Care, guidance on reproductive health as well as sexual health, including STI prevention and genital organ cancers. These targeted at women, men, couples and teenagers. It also presents the importance of seeking more knowledge about the role of Nurses in Primary Care to expand autonomy and the theoretical scientific basis, more specifically in the Family Planning Program.
