ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of diazepam injection on the degree of cervical dilatation, delivery outcome and negative emotion in the first stage of labor. Methods Retrospective study of 120 cases of maternal birth in our hospital as a study sample. Diazepam was used in the first stage of labor, and 60 cases of women with worse cervical dilatation and negative mood were selected as observation group, the other selected not to use any drug-assisted childbirth, only to take the basis of comfort and other interventions, the clinical symptoms and observation group were similar to 60 cases of maternal were classified as control group. The effects of the two groups intervention on maternal mood, delivery outcome and cervical dilatation were compared. Results The self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) scores of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group at 1h, 12h and 24h after treatment, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Observation group Bishop cervix related degree of cervical dilatation, cervical soft and hard, cervix position, cervical canal disappearance and fetal exposure were significantly higher than those of the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The rate of spontaneous delivery in the observation group (83.33%) was significantly higher than that the control group (56.67%), the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no statistical differences in the rate of adverse childbirth in the observation group (11.67%) and the control group (10.00%). Conclusion The use of diazepam injection in the first stage of labor can effectively improve the overall maturity of maternal cervix, relieve maternal depression, anxiety and other negative psychological, and drug safety is high, and there was no significant adverse effect on the outcome of their childbirth.
