Abstract
Introduction: Preterm birth is considered a public health problem and is responsible for high neonatal morbidity and mortality. A large percentage of premature infants require oxygen and mechanical ventilation to meet their physiological needs, and about 40% of them are discharged from neonatal units to the Kangaroo Mother Program. Objective: To describe the experiences of mothers of babies with oxygen admitted to a kangaroo mother program, from their cultural context. Methods: A qualitative, ethnographic study, a semi-structured interview was applied to nineteen mothers of babies with oxygen, aged between 16-38 years. Results: Four categories: identification of respiratory alarm signs and home care equipment; adaptation to handling with oxygen; relationship with cultural setting and attendance at oximetry controls, which arose from analyzing the interviews. Conclusions: Accessibility to health services must be guaranteed to parents; to give continuity to the follow-up processes required by premature infants in the Ambulatory Kangaroo Mother Programs, the research shows that the Health Route Program offered to parents is not enough and needs more coverage. A strategy must be generated that allows monitoring and accompaniment through teleorientation to address concerns that may arise at home and reduce anxiety and stress levels in them.
