Sin embargo, a pesar de todos los avances mencionados, el concepto de trabajo &#8220;normal&#8221; no se ha estandarizado. La psicoprofilaxis obstétrica es un tipo de trabajo de parto que las mujeres pueden elegir libremente, si la historia médica y obstétrica lo permiten, y la paciente y su pareja reciben la capacitación adecuada durante el embarazo. En nuestro país, varios centros privados ofrecen trabajo psicoprofiláctico, desafortunadamente esta opción no es tan común en las instituciones públicas. El objetivo de este artículo es revisar los conceptos actuales sobre psicoprofilaxis obstétrica y servir como una herramienta de apoyo para el desarrollo de nuevos programas en hospitales públicos y privados.]]></p></abstract>

However, despite all said advances the concept of &#8220;normal&#8221; labor has not been standardized.
