Introduction: violence against women is a complex worldwide health problem due to its multicausality.
Global background alterations resulting from Corona Virus (Sars-Cov 2) pandemic implicated on the
exacerbation of many vulnerabilities, including those that predispose domestic violence. Nowadays this
kind of violence is even more intense and reaches significant national and worldwide morbimortality
proportions among women. Objectives: to synthetize data described in the literature regarding how the Covid-19 pandemic and social isolation process have affected women lives concerning domestic violence.
Methodology: integrative literature review, using a high sensitivity search in the databases Pubmed,
Cochrane, Embase and the Virtual Library of Health (VLH) on Dec 07 2020. Ten studies were included in
this review. Results: 90% of the studies analyzed presented an increase in intensity and frequency of
violence against women after the beginning of social distancing policies. Women that had already
suffered any kind of violence before the beginning of the isolation policies are more propense to physical
violence during reclusion. Pandemic reduced contact of these women with their informal support
network and with health services, culminating in the enhancement of the gravity of cases that are assisted
by the system. Conclusion: women are a highly vulnerable population to violence during the pandemic
period. Public policies that qualify professionals and facilitate prevention, tracking and intervention of
cases are even more necessary.
