- Abstract
Objectives: to discuss care needs of wheelchair pregnant women in the light of Collière's Theory of Caring. Methods: qualitative, descriptive, exploratory, with eight women, between August 2014 and March 2015, in Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil. The method of data collection was the life history. The theoretical reference used was Marie-Françoise Collière's Theory of Caring. The thematic type analysis identified three categories: pregnancy planning; support and prejudice of family and health professionals; and caring for the wheelchair pregnant woman. Results: prejudice, fear, lack of support, lack of knowledge about the maintenance of pregnancy and childbirth interfered negatively in the process of gestation. Participants had urinary tract infection, miscarriages and preterm birth. Final Considerations: gestation in these women should predict possible intercurrences, which makes it imperative to train professionals in integral care to promote and protect health.
