Effect of interrupted suture and continuous suture on perineal rehabilitation of parturients: a Meta-analysis / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective:To explore the effect of perineal lateral incision and continuous suture of deep and superficial Ⅱdegree laceration on postoperative perineum rehabilitation of parturients.Methods:Randomized controlled trials of intervention effects on postoperative maternal wound rehabilitation using continuous sutures and interrupted sutures of mucosal, muscle, and skin layers after perineal lateral resection and Ⅱdegree lacerations were searched in Cochrane Library, PubMed, Medline, Embase, Science direct, China Biology Medicine, China National Knowledge Infrastructune, Wanfang Database, VIP Database. The retrieval time limit was from database establishment to October 1, 2020. using RevMan 5.3 software for statistical processing.Results:After searching and screening, 12 articles were finally included. The total sample size was 2 827 cases. After the two groups used different suture techniques, the results of Meta analysis showed that the pains ( MD=1.02, 95% CI=1.02-1.06), the suture time ( MD=-4.59, 95% CI=-7.29 - -1.91) and the healing condition ( MD=-0.55, 95% CI=-0.71 - -0.39) of the two groups were compared, the differences were significant (all P<0.01). Conclusions:In the suture of perineal lateral incision and Ⅱdegree laceration, continuous suture technique is used to suture the mucosal layer, muscle layer, and cortex, which can reduce the suture time, reduce the pain of the parturient, and is beneficial to the healing of the wound. It can be clinically based on the parturient. It can be used in accordance with the neatness and depth of the mouth and the needs of the parturient.

Perineal Lacerations: A Retrospective Study in a Habitual-Risk Public Maternity / Lacerações perineais: um estudo retrospectivo em uma maternidade pública de risco habitual

Abstract Objective In around 85% of vaginal births, the parturients undergo perineal lacerations and/or episiotomy. The present study aimed to determine the incidence of lacerations and episiotomies among parturients in 2018 in a habitual-risk public maternity hospital in southern Brazil, and to determine the risk and protective factors for such events. Methodology A retrospective cross-sectional study. Data were obtained from medical records and analyzed using the Stata software. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were performed. Values of p<0.05 were considered significant. Results In 2018, there were 525 vaginal births, 27.8% of which were attended by obstetricians, 70.7% by obstetric nurses, and 1.5% evolved without assistance. Overall, 55.2% of the parturients had some degree of laceration. The professional who attended the birth was a significant variable: a greater number of first- and second-degree lacerations, as well as more severe cases, occurred in births attended by nurses (odds ratio [OR]: 2,95; 95% confidence interval [95%CI]: 1,74 to 5,03). Positions at birth that did not enable perineal protection techniques (expulsive period with the "hands-off" method), when analyzed in isolation, determined the risk; however, in the final regression model, this relationship was not confirmed. Although reported in the literature, there were no associations between the occurrence of laceration and age, skin color, or birth weight. In 24% of the births, episiotomy was performed, and doctors performed 63.5% of them. Conclusion Births attended by nurses resulted in an increased risk of perineal lacerations, of varying degrees. In turn, those assisted by physicians had a higher occurrence of episiotomy.

Resumo Objetivo Aproximadamente 85% dos partos vaginais cursam ou com lacerações perineais e/ou com episiotomia. Este estudo objetivou determinar a incidência de lacerações e episiotomias das parturientes de 2018 de uma maternidade pública de risco habitual, no sul do Brasil, bem como determinar os fatores de risco e proteção para tais eventos. Métodos Estudo transversal retrospectivo, no qual os dados foram obtidos dos prontuários e analisados no programa Stata. Realizaram-se regressões logísticas uni e multivariada. Foram considerados como significantes valores de p<0,05. Resultados Em 2018, aconteceram 525 partos vaginais, sendo 27,8% assistidos por médicos obstetras, 70,7%, por enfermeiros obstetras, e 1,5% evoluíram sem assistência. Ao todo, 55,2% das parturientes apresentaram algum grau de laceração. O profissional que assistiu ao parto foi uma variável que demonstrou significância: um maior número de lacerações de primeiro e segundo graus, bem como casos de maior gravidade, ocorreram em partos assistidos por enfermeiros (razão de probabilidades [RP]: 2,95; intervalo de confiança de 95% [IC 95%]: 1,74 a 5,03). Posições ao nascimento que não permitiam técnicas de proteção perineal (período expulsivo na técnica "sem mãos" [hands off, em inglês]), quando analisadas isoladamente, determinaram o risco; contudo, no modelo final de regressão, essa relação não se confirmou. Apesar de relatada na literatura, não houve associação entre a ocorrência de laceração e a idade, a cor da pele, ou o peso de nascimento. Em 24% dos partos, uma episiotomia foi realizada, tendo os médicos executado 63,5% delas. Conclusão Partos assistidos por enfermeiros resultaram em um maior risco de lacerações perineais, de variados graus. Por sua vez, os assistidos por médicos apresentaram maior ocorrência de episiotomia.
