Effectiveness of Massage Therapy in Pain Relief During Labor.
Zeitfenster: 30 minutes
|
The Visual Analogue Scale was used to assess the pain intensitiy after each procedure according to the study design.
The VAS is a scale composed by a straight line printed on a paper measuring 100 milimeters, where only the 0 (Zero) and the 100 (one hundred) points are marked.
The patient is then asked to mark this line accordingly to the intensity of the pain felt in that moment, considering 0 (Zero) to be no pain at all, and 100 (one hundred) to be the most unbearable pain ever suffered.
The researcher would measure the distance, in milimeters, from the 0 (Zero)mm to the point were the patient marked, wich was considered to be the intensity of the pain felt by the patient in that moment.
A reduction of 13mm or more in this scale is considered to be a significative pain reduction.
