Abstract
Aim: To identify maternal perception in terms of newborns with a diagnosis of congenital malformation, hospitalized in the intensive care unit. Method: This is a descriptive, cross-sectional study using a qualitative approach, performed in an intensive care unit. The sample was composed of mothers of newborns hospitalized for congenital malformation. We used a semi-structured interview as a data collection instrument. The interviews were recorded, transcribed and analysed by means of content analysis. Results: It was observed that mothers require a more humane caring approach at the time of disclosure, since this is a negative experience in the family environment. Three analytical categories emerged: the moment of disclosure of the diagnosis; maternal language regarding the diagnosis; and the professional approach at diagnosis. Conclusion: Professionals have great difficulty in communicating the diagnosis, and mothers have difficulties in handling the situation.References
