Filter by:Episiotomy is the intentional incision of the perineum during vaginal birth in order to accelerate the active phase of labor. This study aimed to compare various skin closure techniques in episiotomy repair.
The goal of midwifery undergraduate education is; To provide students with basic professional knowledge, skills and attitudes in cognitive, affective and psychomotor dimensions. Various practices are used to provide students with midwifery skills. Case studies, maintenance processes, laboratory applications, field studies, simulation application and video monitoring are some of these applications. Each of these approaches, which are especially preferred in applied courses, has an important place in increasing students' self-efficacy and reducing their anxiety. Episiotomy is one of the obstetric interventions that negatively affects the self-efficacy of midwifery students and causes anxiety. Midwives are responsible for performing and caring for episiotomy. In many countries, episiotomy repair training is given to midwifery students using sponges or models. However, today the use of calf tongue, which is very similar to perineal tissue, has become widespread. There are a limited number of studies in the literature using calf tongue simulation. These studies suggested that the practice improved the skills of midwifery students. No study has been found in the literature using video-assisted episiotomy repair training.
The study will be a randomized clinical trial and will be conducted in Bahawalpur Victoria Hospital, Bahawalpur. The subjects (n=24) will be divided into two groups. Group A will include 12 postnatal women and for treatment, cryotherapy will be applied for 20 minutes. Group B will include 12 women and receive infrared light, an infrared lamp will be put at a distance of 45 cm from the perineum, and the heat produced with 230 volts for twenty minutes. The participant will be checked after the first five minutes to make sure that she is not being burned. This procedure will be done twice a day for 7 consecutive days.
The aim of this clinical study is to compare the pain and fear scores of women who gave birth for the first time and who did and did not do relaxation exercises with virtual reality glasses during episiotomy incision and episiotomy repair. This research seeks answers to the following questions: Question 1: Does doing relaxation exercise with virtual reality glasses reduce the pain score experienced during episiotomy incision? Question 2: Does relaxation exercise with virtual reality glasses reduce the pain score experienced during episiotomy repair? Question 3: Does doing relaxation exercise with virtual reality glasses reduce the fear score experienced during episiotomy incision? Question 4: Does doing relaxation exercise with virtual reality glasses reduce the fear score experienced during episiotomy repair? A group of participants will be given a relaxation exercise with virtual reality glasses during the episiotomy incision and episiotomy repair. Women in the comparison group will not undergo any intervention during episiotomy incision and repair.
The present study aims to compare the effects of lidocaine-prilocaine cream and lidocaine injection on the reduction of pain while doing and repairing episiotomy, controlling the pain in the post-partum period, and reduction the risk of infection and dyspareunia in 6 weeks post-partum.
To become "mother" is a beautiful gift given by God to woman. Giving birth is a powerful and life changing even with a lasting impact on women and their families. Pregnancy and labor are exceptional occasions in women's lives. Post-delivery is very decisive period for compassionate woman who had under gone episiotomy which is a throbbing and disquiet procedure during this time. Episiotomy wound healing takes weeks to years depending on health conditions and treatment of the perineum itself. Episiotomy care is very essential, if neglected it can lead to severe complications like infection, wound gapping.
Episiotomy is a planned surgical incision to the perineum and posterior wall of the vagina during the second stage of labor. The fibrotic and sclerotic scar tissue formed as part of the healing process of episiotomies may cause pain. Therefore, episiotomy is associated with sexual dysfunction due to the painful sexual intercourse, chronic pain and infections and scarring in long term. Er:YAG laser is a safe option for the treatment of vulvar pain. Er:YAG laser is a non-invasive and non-ablative procedure that strengthens the connective tissue in the vaginal wall. It provides controlled thermal energy and causes shrinkage of collagen fibrils of the vaginal epithelium and lamina propria. It also induces neocollagenesis, elastogenesis and neoangiogenesis by temperature change. Er:YAG laser is also an effective modality to treat the scar tissue formed after the mediolateral episiotomy since it is a matter of functionality and esthetics. By tissue remodeling effect Er:YAG laser will improve the scar tissue of episiotomy and ameliorate the vulvar pain. In this study, the therapeutic effect of Er:YAG laser on the tissue healing of the episiotomy scars and the reduction of vulvar pain.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of chicken use in episiotomy repair training of midwifery students on students' satisfaction, self-confidence and anxiety levels. Hypotheses H01 There is no difference between the satisfaction score of the chicken group and the satisfaction score of the control group in episiotomy repair training. H02 In episiotomy repair training, there is no difference between the self-confidence score of the chicken group and the self-confidence score of the control group. H03 There is no difference between the anxiety score of the chicken group and the anxiety score of the control group in episiotomy repair training.
The objective of this study is to assess the effect of TA treatment on decline in Hb levels following vaginal delivery with an episiotomy, compared to a control group not receiving TA.
Trauma to perineal area is one of common problems faced by obstetricians affecting physical, social and mental wellbeing of patients. During labor, surgical incision to perineum (episiotomy) is done to facilitate delivery of fetus. Episiotomy is associated with complication such as hemorrhage, infection, pain and wound breakdown. Pain relief after episiotomy is primary concern of obstetrician and right of patient. Pain after delivery causes delayed mobility of patient, late initiation of breast feeding and may affect mother psychologically. Magnesium sulphate is readily available in obstetric units due to its diverse uses, wide safety margins and cost-effectiveness. Magnesium is a calcium channel blocker and noncompetitive N methyl D aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist with anti-nociceptive effects. Blocking of NMDA receptors inhibits central sensitization due to peripheral nociceptive stimulation. The role of magnesium has been evaluated as adjuvant for intra- and post-operative pain relief in orthopedic, gynecological, and thoracic surgeries and has established role in anesthesia and obstetrics. Lignocaine given locally does not provide adequate pain relief. There is need to find adjuvants to local anesthesia for pain relief after episiotomy. There is paucity of published data on the use of Magnesium sulphate as an adjunct to local anesthetics for episiotomy or its repair. No local study has been done in this regard.
