    (Elsevier, 2024-07-19) Pérez Castejón, Marta; Suárez Cortés, María; Jiménez Ruiz, Ismael; Jiménez Barbero, José Antonio; Enfermería; Facultades de la UMU::Facultad de Enfermería
    Abstract Problem: There is little documented evidence of job satisfaction in midwives who work in birthing rooms. Background: Job satisfaction in midwives who work in birthing rooms may have changed in recent decades due to the medicalization of maternal health. Aim: To analyse job satisfaction levels among midwives working in birthing rooms. Methods: We searched Web of Science, SCOPUS, MEDLINE, CUIDEN and CINAHL for observational and mixed method studies. The literature search was carried out from September to October 2022. Findings: A total of 13 studies were included in the systematic review. A meta-analysis of the variable "midwives' job satisfaction" was performed on 12 of the studies. Midwives rated their job satisfaction positively: DME, CI (95%) = 1.24 [0.78, 1.69]. Subgroup 1: DME, CI (95%) = 2.41 [2.05, 2.76]); Subgroup 2: DME, CI (95%) = 0.76 [0.65, 0.86]; subgroup 3: DME, CI (95%) = 1.11 [0.95, 1.27]; subgroup 4: DME, CI (95%) = 0.10 [-0.11, 0.31]. Discussion: Although midwives show high levels of satisfaction, the heterogeneity of instruments, lack of specificity and limited number of studies found restrict the outcomes. Conclusion: There are no specific measurement instruments for assessing job satisfaction among midwives working in labour wards, so it is possible that these data do not correspond to reality as they do not take into account specific professional aspects within this field of practice.

    El paradigma emancipatorio y su influencia sobre el desarrollo del conocimiento en Enfermería
    (Murcia: servicio de publicaciones de la Universidad de Murcia, 2013) Ramírez Elizondo, Noé Alberto; Quintana Zavala, Mª. Olga; Sanhueza Alvarado, Olivia; Valenzuela Suazo, Sandra Verónica
    El presente artículo surge por la necesidad de reflexionar sobre la influencia del paradigma emancipatorio en la Disciplina de Enfermería. Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica, en las bases de datos Scielo, Latindex, Redalyc, así como el uso de documentos escritos (libros). Se identificó que el paradigma emancipador, como medio de reflexión y crítica al poder ejercido tradicionalmente, propone medidas de participación y justicia social, arraigando importantes vestigios éticos en el accionar humano. En el caso específico de Enfermería, este proceso emancipador reorienta la visión tradicionalmente arrastrada en la esencia del ser y hacer, por lo que la apertura al pensamiento reflexivo permite modificar la manera en la cual la profesión se posiciona, brinda intervención y prepara a las (os) futuras (os) enfermeras (os).
