Effectiveness of Massage Therapy in Pain Relief During Labor.
Lasso di tempo: 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.

Pharmacological Analgesia Request According to the Cervical Dilation.
Lasso di tempo: 10 hours
|
In the institution where this study was conducted, the request for analgesia, made by the patient, is granted promptly.
Considering that the further the cervyx dilation grows, the greater the pain intensity is, the cervical dilation was used as an indicator of the moment that the women in labour requested this procedure, and, therefore, could provide a comparison between methods.

Obstetric Outcome - Moment of Corioamniorrhexis
Lasso di tempo: 10 hours
|
Corioamniorrhexis may occur during the normal evolution of labour or due to medical conditions.
In this study, the moment when this event happened was associated to the dilation of the uterus cervyx, considering this to be a more reliable datum rather than the timelapse of labor.
This outcome is measured in centimeter when the women is assessed by the doctor.
