Obstetric Labor Complications Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of Perineal Massage in Childbirth: the Rate of Episiotomy Procedures, Perineal Tears and the Length of the Second Stage of Labour
Objective To examine the effects of perineal massage applied during the action of birth on
the frequency of episiotomy procedures, perineal tearing and the duration of the second
stage of birth.
Methods The present study was a randomized controlled experimental. Women (284 women) were
informed on the study and provided their written consent. 10-minute perineal massage with
glycerine was applied to the women in the test group for 4 times during the first stage and
1 time in the second stage of birth. The women in the control group received the routine
care procedure at the clinic.
Results According to the study findings, 31% of the women in the test group and 69.7% of the
women in the control group were made subject to episiotomy (p<0.05). In the test and control
group 9.2%, 2.4% of the women developed spontaneous perineal laceration (p>0.05). The
average duration of the action of birth was 25.33 minutes in the test group and 28.18
minutes in the control group (p<0.05).
Conclusion The study results indicate that perineal massage applied during the action of
birth decreased the rate of episiotomy procedure and shortened the duration of the second
stage of birth.
