Filter by:In this study, perineal massage was applied to primiparous women who did not give birth before, as a quasi-experimental control group to determine the effects of massage on birth comfort, perineal trauma and perineal pain.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of three different doses of hydromorphone combined with ropivacaine and sufentanil combined with ropivacaine in epidural labor analgesia through prospective clinical trials, so as to explore whether hydromorphone combined with ropivacaine has advantages in epidural labor analgesia, and find out the optimal dose of hydromorphone. Participants will be randomly allocated to four groups: H1 group,H2 group,H3 group and SF group.For those in H1 group: they will be administered with15 ug/ml hydromorphone and 0.08% ropivacaine for epidural labor analgesia, For those in H2 group: they will be administered with17.5 ug/ml hydromorphone and 0.08% ropivacaine for epidural labor analgesia, For those in H3 group: they will be administered with 20 ug/ml hydromorphone and 0.08% ropivacaine for epidural labor analgesia, For those in SF group: they will be administered with 40 ug/ml sufentanil and 0.08% ropivacaine for epidural labor analgesia. The goal of this clinical trial is to provide a new treatment option for pregnant women in epidural labor analgesia, and to provide a basis for hydromorphone combined with ropivacaine in epidural labor analgesia.
Epidural analgesia is the gold standard for pain control during labour and an essential component of delivering effective and safe epidural analgesia is the assessment of the epidural sensory block. There is significant literature on the assessment of sensory block during spinal anesthesia for cesarean section but limited studies exploring the assessment of sensory blockade in labour analgesia. Prior studies have documented two thresholds of sensory block to both ice and pinprick: one defined as the lower sensory block level (LSBL) where the patient is able to notice a cold or sharp sensation but perceives that is not as sharp or cold as a control area and the other the upper sensory block level (USBL) where the patient perceives the cold or sharp sensation is at the same temperature or sharpness as the control area. The goal of this study is to contribute to the standardization of the assessment of sensory block levels during labour epidural analgesia by studying patients with labour epidurals who are experiencing pain and determining the LSBL and USBL and how these change as the patients become comfortable following the administration of manual epidural top ups.
The present study aims to evaluate Virtual Reality analgesic interventions for active labor with biofeedback-based Virtual Reality technologies synchronized to uterine activity. The investigators developed a Virtual Reality system modeled on uterine contractions by connection to a cardiotocographic equipment. The present study, based on a multidisciplinary approach, comprised the following phases: 1)development of hardware and software components; 2) design of the Reality scenario through a qualitative focus group discussion study; 3) clinical trial on a sample of 53 cases and 53 controls during active labor.
The goal of this study was to compare the effects of ice massage and virtual reality animation on labor pain, duration, and satisfaction with delivery. The main questions aims to answer are: H1 There are differences between Ice massage group and/or virtual reality animation groups and the control group in women's' labor pain. H2 There are differences between Ice massage group and/or virtual reality animation groups and the control group in women's' labor duration. H3 There are differences between Ice massage group and/or virtual reality animation groups and the control group in women's' satisfaction. This randomized controlled trial (n = 94) includes three arms. Two intervention groups (ice massage (IMG); virtual reality animation (VRA)) and one control group, (CG). Personal information form, and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Birth Satisfaction Scale will used to collect data. Frequency and percentage calculations, Mann Whitney U, Kruskal Wallis test, chi-square test, Tukey's honestly significant difference test, and will used for data analysis.
This study was planned to determine the effect of continuous accompanying support during the active phase on labor pain, duration and satisfaction.
It has been reported that the birth ball has benefits such as decreasing the perception of labor pain, reducing the anxiety level, shortening the duration of the first stage of labor, increasing the satisfaction of birth, and facilitating the descent of the fetal head, but the literature is quite limited. So, this randomized controlled experimental study aimed to examine the effect of birth ball exercise on labor pain, delivery duration, birth comfort, and birth satisfaction.
Purpose: In the study , it was aimed to determine the effect of ice massage applied to SP6 point during labor on labor pain, labor comfort, labor duration, and anxiety. Design: A single blind, randomized controlled experimental trial Setting and Participants: 100 primiparas, 50 in the intervention group and 50 in the control group, with 4-5 cm cervical dilatations were included in the study. Ice massage was applied to the SP6 point of the pregnant women in the intervention group at 4-5 cm, 6-7 cm, and 8-9 cm dilatations during three contractions. Measurement Tools: The Pregnant Information Form, VAS, the Partograph Form, Childbirth Comfort Questionnaire (CCQ), and the State Anxiety Scale were used to collect data.
This study was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study.To evaluate the effects of aromatherapy, one of the non-pharmacological pain methods, on labor pain and anxiety in the active phase in primiparous pregnant women. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is ylang ylang oil applied as an inhaler effective in reducing labor pain and anxiety? Is lemon oil applied as an inhaler effective in reducing labor pain and anxiety? Participants randomized according to the closed envelope method into the lemon oil group (n=15), ylang ylang oil group (n=15) and control group (n=15). In the active phase (cervical dilatation ≥5), a drop of essential oil was instilled onto square cotton balls to the intervention groups and renewed as one drop every hour until labor occurred. In the control group, 1 drop of saline was dripped onto square cotton balls. Visual pain scale (VAS) and state anxiety ınventory were applied to the intervention groups and control groups before the application. After the application, VAS and state anxiety ınventory were evaluated at 5-7 cm dilatation, and only with VAS at 8-10 cm dilatation. The trait anxiety ınventory was administered to the volunteers after birth.
The aim of this study is to calculate the sensitivity and specificity of using color Doppler with pulsed wave Doppler to accurately detect the position of epidural catheter
