VIOLÊNCIA OBSTÉTRICA: UMA DAS MODALIDADES DA VIOLÊNCIA DE GÊNERO NO QUE TANGE À TEMÁTICA DA RESPONSABILIDADE CIVIL

Abstract

The present paper aims to answer the following question: How is compensation paid to the victims of obstetric violence in the civil sphere and what are the damages and their criteria for reparation? The article used theoretical-dogmatic research, addressing doctrinal and jurisprudential concepts to equate the problem by analyzing civil liability and inappropriate obstetricial behaviors practiced by institutions and health professionals. It has been verified that with the medical transformations over the years aggressive and sometimes unnecessary interventions have grown, and that civil responsibility is the means by which the victims of this gender violence seek redress.
