Filter by:Having a patient with pain watch a video can be used to "direct attention to a different direction", which is a part of nursing care in pain management (İnal and Canbulat, 2015). There are studies using different non-invasive methods to reduce pain during labor (Ebrahimian and Bilandi, 2021; Kazeminia et al., 2020). However, no randomized controlled study has been found in which comedy videos were watched for labor pain management and birth satisfaction. For this reason, it is planned to investigate the effect of comedy video on pain and birth satisfaction in this study.
This randomized controlled study aims to compare effects of different essential oils in labor pain, anxiety and childbirth comfort. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is it effective using rosa damascena oil during labor? Is it effective using frankincense oil during labor? Which essential oil is more effective during labor Researchers will compare aromatherapy oils groups to see labor pain, anxiety and childbirth comfort levels of pregnant women.
FAME-n aims to improve perinatal care by introducing new approaches to fetal and neonatal heart assessment. Better identification of high-risk deliveries requiring intervention will reduce perinatal asphyxia-related illness and death. Neonatal hemodynamics may be improved by early detection of instability of the heart and circulation. Innovative use of technology enables characterization of normal and abnormal cardiovascular transition in a significantly larger number of fetuses and newborn infants than what was previously possible. The methods used may have broad generalizability and applicability in perinatal, neonatal and pediatric medicine. In September 2023, the project was expanded with an obstetric arm called Epidural analgesia: Fetal Oxygenation and Maternal Oxygenation (Epi-FOMO). In Epi-FOMO, the relationship between maternal breathing and arterial blood gases during labour, and umbilical cord blood gases and neonatal outcomes (as specified in FAME-n) will be investigated.
The primary objective of our study is to use a biased coin up-down allocation methodology to estimate the dose of bupivacaine required after the lidocaine test dose to achieve initial effective comfort in 90% of patients (post test-dose ED90) via the epidural (DPE or EPL) technique in women undergoing labor induction or augmentation; we hypothesize that we will be able to determine the post test-dose ED90 of bupivacaine for each technique with adequate precision to inform the optimal doses to study in a subsequent randomized trial comparing the analgesic effects of DPE vs. EPL. We also hypothesize that the post test-dose ED90 of bupivacaine is lower with a DPE technique than with a conventional epidural technique.
To determine the Effect of Focusing on the Virgin Mary Flower during the Birth Process on Labor Pain, Labor Duration and Perceived Fatigue in Birth. Method: The study will be completed in a randomized controlled manner with a total of 126 primiparous pregnant women, 63 in the experimental group and 63 in the control group. Pregnant women in the experimental group will focus on the Virgin Mary flower in the water-filled jar and imagine that their uterus and birth path are opening like the branches of the Virgin Mary flower that blooms as labor pains come. There will be no intervention in the control group other than routine midwifery care. Research data will be collected with the Pregnant Introduction and Birth Process Follow-up Form, Visual Analog Scale, and Visual Similarity Scale for Fatigue.
The study was carried out to evaluate the effect of external pressure applied to the palm on labor pain and childbirth experience.The sample of the randomized controlled study consisted of 60 nulliparous (30 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group) pregnant women who presented to Zeynep Kamil Gynecology and Pediatrics Training and Research Hospital between April and June 2020 to give birth and met the research conditions. The Descriptive Information Form, Follow-Up Form Related to Labor Action, Childbirth Experience Questionnaire (CEQ), and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were used in data collection. During the 5-6 cm, 7-8 cm, and 9-10 cm cervical dilatation stages of the labor process, palm external pressure was applied to the pregnant women in the experimental group, while standard midwifery care was provided to the pregnant women in the control group. The VAS was applied to both groups at admission to the hospital, before and after the 5-6 cm, 7-8 cm, and 9-10 cm cervical dilatation stages, and also at the 30th minute postpartum. Data were analyzed Statistical Package for Social Sciences 24.0 program using number, percentage, mean, standard deviation, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Levene's test and independent samples t-test, one-way ANOVA test, analysis of variance, and chi-square test. In all analyses, p<0.05 values will be considered statistically significant.
Background: The purpose of this study was to see how intrathecal injections of sufentanil, ropivacaine, and sufentanil added to ropivacaine affected blood flow in the uterine artery, umbilical artery, and middle cerebral artery for combined spinal and epidural labor analgesia using color doppler ultrasound (CDUs). Methods: A total of 90 singleton full-term parturients who were evaluated by obstetricians for feasible vaginal delivery were collected prospectively and divided into three groups based on the randomization and double-blind principle: sufentanil (S), ropivacaine (R) group, each with 30 cases. Main indicators include color doppler blood flow resistance indices (S/D) of the uterine artery (UtA), umbilical artery (UA), and middle cerebral artery (MCA) before (T0) and 30 minutes (T1), 60 minutes (T2), 90minutes (T3) after analgesia. Fetal heart rate (FHR), maternal mean arterial pressure (MAP) at T0, T1, T2 and T3。
Those prospective parturients that express that they may want an epidural labour analgesia for their delivery will be informed about the possibility to choose between a pump driven epidural or midwife administered intermittent boluses.
Many non-pharmacological and pharmacological methods can be used in the management of labor pain. Considering the potential side effects on the mother and fetus, pharmacological methods may not be the first choice. Non-pharmacological methods can alleviate pain sensations in various ways, promoting women's well-being and sense of control in labor; Birth ball and birth dance are among the methods that help mothers cope with the pain process and birth. Birth ball is one of the auxiliary tools that make labor more comfortable. In the relevant literature, it has been reported that the birthing ball is beneficial for both pregnancy and birth processes. It is claimed that the birthing ball allows the woman to feel less pain, especially during contractions, and shortens the birth process. Fetal descent is accelerated with the effect of upright position and appropriate rotations. Thus, the mother's birth satisfaction will be increased. Birth satisfaction can be defined as meeting the mother's expectations from birth. Women with low birth satisfaction may develop a negative birth experience, perception of traumatic birth, postpartum depression or a delay in maternal attachment. Birth dance, which is an alternative practice to the birthing ball, can facilitate birth and positively affect maternal satisfaction with the change of position and freedom of movement it provides. It may also reduce the need for medical intervention by shortening the duration of labor. This study aims to examine the effects of birth ball and birth dance practices applied in the first stage of labor on pain, type of birth, maternal satisfaction and birth duration. This research will be conducted with primiparous pregnant women admitted to give birth at Amasya University Sabuncuoğlu Şerefeddin Training and Research Hospital Birth Room between November 2023 and April 2024. Personal Information Form, Verbal Category Scale, Visual Comparison Scale, Mother Satisfaction Evaluation Scale in Normal Birth and Partograph will be used to collect data.
