Resumo: The aim of this study was to understand the meanings of the experience of pain suffered by women during acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to identify their immediate actions in face of pain. This qualitative research used the Symbolic Interactionism theory and the Grounded Theory methodology. Forty-three wo-men were interviewed at the University Hospital. The central category expressing the pain experience was that it was "a break with day-to-day life". The categories that expressed such break revealed that in face of increasing pain those women felt dominated and afraid of dying because they had lost control over their bodies and their lives. They did not recognize the occurrence of AMI and at first resisted to look for assistance by attempting to alleviate the pain. In face of the unbearable pain and their impotence to control it, they asked for God's salvation and help from surrounding people and finally resorted to medical assistance.

En esta investigación cualitativa se utilizó la teoría del Interaccionismo Simbólico y la metodología de la Teoría Fundamentada en los Datos. Fueron entrevistadas cuarenta y tres mujeres del Hospital Universitario. La categoría central que expresó el sentido de la experiencia fue "Teniendo una ruptura con la vida cotidiana". Las categorías que revelaron esa ruptura mostraron que frente al creciente dolor las mujeres se sintieron dominadas y con miedo de morir, pues perdieron el control personal sobre el cuerpo y la vida. No reconocieron el infarto y se resistieron, al principio, a procurar atención, haciendo intentos para aminorar el dolor. Ante el dolor insoportable y la impotencia en su control, pidieron la salvación Divina, ayuda a las personas y recurrieron al tratamiento médico.O estudo objetivou compreender os significados da experiência da dor em mulheres que sofreram infarto do miocárdio e identificar as suas ações imediatas diante da mesma. A pesquisa qualitativa utilizou a teoria do Interacionismo Simbólico e a metodologia da Teoria Fundamentada nos Dados. Quarenta e três mulheres foram entrevistadas em Hospital Universitário. A categoria central que expressou o sentido da experiência foi "Tendo uma ruptura com a vida cotidiana". As categorias que revelaram essa ruptura mostraram que diante da dor crescente as mulheres se sentiram dominadas e com medo de morrer, pois perderam o controle pessoal sobre o corpo e a vida. Não reconheceram o infarto e resistiram, a princípio, à procura de atendimento, fazendo tentativas para minorar a dor. Interagindo com a dor insuportável e com a impotência no seu controle, pediram a salvação Divina, ajuda às pessoas e recorreram a tratamento médico.Universidade de São Paulo.
