Abstract

Introduction: Integrative and Complementary Practices (PICs) have proven to be a viable alternative in the field of assistance to women. In the pain outcome, these practices seem to favor parturient satisfaction and minimize labor pain. Objective: To summarize which PICs are used in pain management in parturients. Materials and Method: This is a systematic, descriptive-exploratory review, with qualitative analysis, following the PRISMA protocol. Initially, the research question was elaborated through the PICO strategy. The collection of materials was carried out in the PUBMED, BVS and SCIELO databases. Clinical trials were included, complete, without time restriction and in English, Portuguese or Spanish. A search strategy based on DECS and MeSH was used. To verify the risk of viability, the Jadad Scale was applied. Results: 17 studies were included, which evaluated 2,371 women. The use of massage therapy and acupuncture stood out in terms of pain management during labor. There was no homogeneity between the therapeutic application protocols. Four studies had a high risk of addiction and 13 had a low risk of addiction. Conclusion: PICs prove to be a viable, easy-to-manage and effective alternative to labor pain when compared to usual care and/or placebo.
