This is attributed here to inadequate care. One of the components of the process of care is interpersonal relationships and these have been associated with the concept of humanization. A strong international movement with increasing theoretical production can be identified, in which humanization of childbirth care is taken to be a response both to the mechanization of the way in which professional work is organized and to institutional violence. However, ‘humanization’ is a polysemic term, and the perspective that is adopted and the sense that is conferred need to be identified when this term is used.}, number={4}, journal={Tempus – Actas de Saúde Coletiva}, author={Rattner, Daphne}, year={2010}, month={dez.}, pages={pag.41–48} }
