RESUMEN
Introducción y objetivo: este artículo tiene como objetivo reflexionar sobre la adherencia y las barreras de acceso al control prenatal (CPN). El CPN es la estrategia recomendada para detectar tempranamente riesgos del embarazo, instaurar el manejo adecuado, prevenir complicaciones y preparar a la gestante para el parto y la crianza. Sin embargo, no todas las embarazadas logran acceder al CPN por diferentes razones, la mayoría ajenas a su voluntad. Por tanto, es necesario reflexionar sobre las barreras de acceso y los motivos de las fallas en la adherencia al CPN para dirigir la investigación con el fin de hacer realidad el sueño de una maternidad saludable.
ABSTRACT
ntroduction and objective: this paper aims to reflect on how access to prenatal care (PNC) is adhered to and the barriers to it. PNC is the recommended strategy for the early detection risks during pregnancy, establishing suitable management, preventing complications and preparing pregnant females for birth and parenting. However, not all pregnant women have access to PNC for different reasons, these being mostly beyond their control. The barriers to and reasons for failure to adhere to PNC must thus be known to ensure that the dream of safe motherhood becomes real.
