Filter by:Today, pregnancy and childbirth are important life events that involve many challenges and changes for both men and women. During this process, changes occur in the pregnant woman's body, emotional state and family life. These changes often lead to anxiety about the health of the baby and her own health and to the creation of new stressful situations. During antenatal education, deep relaxation and breathing techniques taught to pregnant women during labour and delivery allow the mother to relax and cope with birth pains more easily and on her own. There are not enough studies in the literature to evaluate the effectiveness of online antenatal classes. In cases where face-to-face antenatal education is not possible during pregnancy, online education is an important option. In the literature, there is no study evaluating how antenatal education affects women's fear of childbirth, physiological ability to give birth and traumatic birth perception together. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the effect of antenatal education on fear of childbirth, physiological ability to give birth and perception of traumatic birth. The type of the study is a randomised controlled experimental study with pre-post and control group. The research will be conducted in the form of online training meetings on pregnant women reached through social media. The population of the study will consist of healthy pregnant women who apply to the researchers as a result of the announcements made through social media and who are at the 20th gestational week at the earliest. The sample size was determined by t-test analysis in independent groups in G*power statistical programme, based on two variables, 0.05 significance level, 80% power and medium effect (0.50). Accordingly, a total of 42 pregnant women, 21 pregnant women in each group, are planned to be included in the study. Intention-to-treat analysis will be performed to prevent bias and losses. As an intervention programme, a total of three weeks and six hours of childbirth preparation training will be given, two hours each week. The programme has been prepared by faculty members who have conducted childbirth preparation classes, based on the literature and by making use of childbirth preparation philosophies and methods.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of an artistic tool, the mandala, in a population of pregnant women (nulliparous) undergoing labor induction. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does using the mandala during labor induction improve the birth experience? - Does the use of the mandala during the induction of labor improve the outcome of the birth and the demand for analgesia? Participants in the intervention group will receive standard treatment plus coloring mandala, those in the control group only standard treatment.
Aim. To evaluate the efficacy of optimizing hydration during labor in nulliparous women with respect to reducing the duration of dilation and the second stage of labor, lowering the incidence of Cesarean sections and fever, and also with respect to changes in sodium and osmolarity in blood and urine, and 24 hour diuresis. Background. In the international scientific community there is a lack of consensus regarding the most suitable hydration strategies to be used in the attention of nulliparous women during low risk birth. Insufficient hydration during labor is associated with increased maternal and neonatal morbidity. Design. A randomized, controlled clinical trial with allocation concealment and masking during the evaluation of the results. Methods. A study of nulliparous women whose births and newborn are attended in the Obstetric Service of a University Hospital. The women will be randomized to two groups: the "optimal hydration" group, that will be guaranteed 300 ml/h (intravenous crystalloids and water) with a minimum diuresis of 400 ml/24h; and the "variability in hydration" group, comprised of the administration of intravenous and clear liquid volumes, without any established perfusion rate, based on criteria established by the healthcare professional attending the birth, and without established minimum diuresis. Mother outcomes: duration of labor, Cesarean section, fever, dehydration. Newborn outcomes: distress, hypoglycemia, hyponatremia, jaundice, weight loss in 48h, breastfeeding difficulties. Analysis will be per-protocol. Statistical significance will be set at p<0.05 Discussion. The findings obtained in this study will provide new evidence for considering the benefits of providing women with suitable optimized hydration during labor. Diminishing the clinical practice variability related to hydration strategies applied to nulliparous women attended during labor through the use of a decision-making algorithm to administer optimal hydration, would imply improved health and safety for mothers and their newborn together with reduced maternal and neonatal morbidity.

Lidocaine Infusion On Hysteroscopic Media Versus Oral Diclofinac For Pain Relief During Outpatient Hysteroscopy. A Randomized Controlled Trial.
The purpose of this trial is to determine whether cervical ripening with isosorbide mononitrate reduce caesarean section in women with post term pregnancies.
