Abstract
Objective

To describe the meaning that pregnant women with preeclampsia attach to nursing care in an obstetric intensive care unit of a hospital in Neiva (Colombia).

Method

Qualitative-phenomenological study, guided by the theoretical guidelines of Diekelmann, Allen and Tanner. The data was collected during the second semester of 2017 and the first semester of 2018, through in-depth interviews with eleven participants, which were subsequently analysed until reaching theoretical saturation.

Results

273 significant fragments, eight common meanings and four emerging themes: establishing links that satisfy, an invisible woman, approaching a transpersonal relationship of care, and the pursuit of understanding emerged from this study.

Conclusion

Admission to the obstetric intensive care unit due to severe pre-eclampsia represents a change of role for women who, in addition to undergoing physical changes, also manifest a variety of emotions related to the circumstances of care and the actions of nurses.
