Abstract

Objective: to identify and summarize the evidence available in the national literature on health care for deaf women in the pregnancy-puerperal cycle. Method: Scope review studies according to theoretical and methodological precepts of the Joanna Briggs Institute. The research was performed via CAPES journals, in the bases LILACS; MEDLINE via PubMed®; SCIELO, WOS, and CINAHL electronic library. Results: A total of 1,831 studies were identified, and 12 made up the final sample. Difficulties in communication, and the lack of trained professionals in Libras, in addition to suffering, prejudice, and discrimination, are part of the experience of deaf women in the pregnancy-puerperal cycle. Conclusion: the production of knowledge at the national level about assistance to deaf women in the pregnancy-puerperal period is still leadoff, and encouraging studies and evidence-based practices to produce initiatives that dialogue about the autonomy and strengthening of the exercise of sexual and reproductive rights of deaf women in Brazil is necessary.
