Effect of midwife-leading labor pain management on pregnancy outcomes and pain control satisfaction / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of the midwife-leading labor pain management model on the pregnancy outcomes and pain control satisfaction.Methods The randomized grouping and single blind trial design were performed.One hundred and ten pregnant women were recruited and randomized into the control group (n=55) and intervention group (n=55).The control group received the routine prenatal examination by the outpatientdepartment obstetric doctors and intrapartum nursing care during labor.On this basis the intervention group participated in the labor pain educational course in the midwife clinic,and received the repeated pain assessment and pain management intervention during labor.Results There was no statistical difference in the delivery mode between the two groups(P＞0.05).The cesarean section rate without indication in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(x2 =6.798,P＜0.05).The average each item score of the labor pain education and pain control satisfaction in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).Conclusion The midwife-leading labor pain management model can reduce the cesarean section rate without indication,and improves the satisfaction of labor pain education and pain control in pregnant women and parturients.
