Materials and methods: The trial involves a population of 100 patients divided into three arms: women who have given birth according to normal clinical practice; women who have given birth supported by the tool of narrative medicine by operators trained by the project NAME; women who have given birth supported by the tool of narrative medicine by operators trained by the project verba curant. Results: The collection of narratives will offer qualitative and quantitative data: the content analysis will be able to offer a very detailed profile of the narrative under examination. Conclusions: From the data of the study will emerge the basis for the conduct of a project aimed at defining on a larger scale, in different types of patients, the real benefit of the introduction of the tool.
