Understanding the physiological development of the puerperium is essential for the management of patients, both from the perspective of hospital care and primary care. Recognizing the physiology of the puerperium is a key factor in identifying early signs of risk and being able to prevent complications or act as efficiently and quickly as possible in the event of complications that may arise.

This course will distinguish the actions of the midwife in the different levels of puerperal care, starting in the delivery room during the immediate puerperium, the assistance of the puerpera in the puerperal ward and in the health center through the consultation of the midwife. Despite the fact that nurses are found on many puerperium hospitalization floors, the tendency is for these positions to be filled by midwives, since they are the specialized nursing personnel for this stage of the woman's life. 

Health education occupies an important place in this specialization, since it will be one of the protagonists of the midwife's health care work, offering information to the expectant mother to promote her care and that of her newborn.

Early discharge and puerperium at home is a modality of care that is increasingly implemented in many hospital centers.
