Abstract
This study analyzed access to obstetric services in the interior of Pernambuco. A maternal death was studied through in-depth interviews with health professionals and the person who was closest to the woman during the care journey, in addition to a documentary analysis.The categories of analysis were previously established based on the Three Delays Model and on one access model. The search for care by a brown adolescent with little education and low income revealed problems in accessibility due to difficulties in perceiving that she could obtain care and in acceptability due to negative experiences with the service, characterizing the first delay; the second delay was due to availability/accommodation, the lack of a nearby service, the absence of a full team in the maternity ward, the unavailability of ICU beds, blood products and difficulties in adequate transfer, leading to the care pilgrimage. The third delay was caused by the lack of adequacy of the service, due to the inefficiency of the regulatory system, and the lack of accountability of professionals to get involved and sharing care. It is concluded that access to obstetric services in the interior of Pernambuco is fragmented, violating women's right to health.
