Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if non-invasive distracting devices (Virtual Reality headsets) are non-inferior to conventional therapy (nitrous oxide) for addressing maternal needs during labor who desire non-epidural pain relief.
Pregnant women who are in the process of labor need physical and emotional support of health professionals in issues such as coping with labor pain, relieving fear and anxiety, and experiencing positive birth. The fact that labor dance includes components such as upright posture, pelvic movement, touch, massage provides both physical and emotional support to the pregnant woman. The aim of the study is to examine the effect of labor dance applied to pregnant women in the first stage of birth on labor pain, anxiety, birth time and maternal satisfaction at birth.
to compare between the use of single dose of paracetamol and pethidine hydrochloride intravenously in management of labour pains
In this study, it was aimed to position by using peanut ball, which is a kind of birth ball, in the first stage of delivery in pregnant women who are planned to have vaginal delivery with cephalic admission, who is a primipara, who do not have a risky pregnancy and systemic disease; It will be done to determine the effect on the birth process.
Epidural analgesia is widely used for managing pain during labor. The programmed intermittent epidural bolus (PIEB) technique has been shown to produce less consumption of local anesthetics, better sensory block, less motor block, and increased maternal satisfaction than other epidural analgesia techniques. Despite all benefits from PIEB, such practice has been associated with high sensory block levels. Therefore, assessment of the sensory block level is an essential component of clinical safety. The lack of a standardized technique and timing to assess the sensory block level can lead to inappropriate management. The purpose of this study is to investigate the changes in block level over time, during cycles of a PIEB regimen. The investigators hypothesize that these levels will be highest soon after the PIEB bolus and lowest preceding the subsequent PIEB bolus. The investigators also want to investigate a possible correlation between these changes in sensory block levels and motor block, pain scores, and rescue bolus of local anesthetics.
A total of 60 parturients undergoing induction of labour will be consented to participate in the study where they will be randomized to receive either spinal fentanyl (20 µg) or epidural analgesia (fentanyl 100µg and lidocaine 80 mg). They will be monitored for the development of analgesia for a duration of 30 minutes.
Adequate pain control after cesarean delivery is a significant concern both for parturients and obstetric anesthesiologists. Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block and local Wound infiltration with anesthetics are alternatives for reducing the severity of pain, total analgesic consumption, and opioid side effects. Both the TAP block and wound infiltration are superior to placebo; however, it is unknown which provides better analgesia after cesarean delivery because of a scarcity of randomized clinical trials. So, we hypothesized that the TAP block would decrease postoperative pain and postoperative cumulative opioid consumption at 24 hours
Whole body vibration (WBV), which is a new treatment method and applied through the device, is defined as mechanical repetitive motion or oscillatory motion occurring around a balance point (5). Chronic nonspecific low back pain is still a serious clinical, social and economic health problem. There are few studies and limited evidence evaluating the effectiveness of WBV exercises in chronic nonspecific low back pain. Different protocols are used for wbv exercise in studies (6). Our aim is to compare the effects of whole body vibration exercise modality on pain, functional recovery, laboor impact, quality of life with control group in patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain.
Over an 8-year period, 124 twin pregnancies at gestational age ≥32 weeks with both twins presenting as a vertex and eligible for vaginal delivery were reviewed. Excluded were patients with the following intrapartum factors which may affect mode of delivery of second twin: 1. Presentation of the 2nd twin: breech or other than vertex; 2. Monochorionic twins; 3. Induction of labour; 4. difference in foetal weight between twin B and twin A ≥25%. The chi-square statistic was used to compare differences in the incidence of retained second twin between the groups.
To determine effectiveness of breathing exercises for pregnant women during the second stage of labor on maternal pain, duration of labor, dyspnea, oxygen saturation (SPO2) and the first-minute Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity and Respiration (APGAR) scores
