Labor Epidural Analgesia and Mother-Infant Bonding After Vaginal Delivery
Association Between Postpartum Recovery Quality Measured by ObsQoR-10 and Mother-Infant Bonding After Vaginal Delivery: The Role of Labor Epidural Analgesia
This prospective observational cohort study aims to evaluate the association between postpartum recovery quality and mother-infant bonding in women undergoing vaginal delivery. Postpartum recovery quality will be assessed using the Obstetric Quality of Recovery-10 (ObsQoR-10) questionnaire, and mother-infant bonding will be evaluated using the Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire (PBQ).
Participants will be grouped according to routine clinical labor analgesia preference: women receiving labor epidural analgesia and women not receiving epidural analgesia. Additional assessments will include postpartum pain intensity, anxiety, depressive symptoms, and birth satisfaction.
Baseline psychological assessments will be performed before delivery. The primary postpartum evaluation will be conducted between 6 and 24 hours after delivery. Exploratory follow-up assessments will be performed by telephone during postpartum week 2.
The study aims to better understand the relationship between labor analgesia, postpartum recovery, and early mother-infant bonding outcomes after vaginal delivery.

Descrição detalhada
This single-center prospective observational cohort study will be conducted at Atatürk University Research Hospital. The study will include term pregnant women planning vaginal delivery.
Participants will be classified into two cohorts according to routine clinical labor analgesia preference:
Women receiving labor epidural analgesia Women not receiving labor epidural analgesia No experimental intervention will be applied as part of the study protocol. Epidural analgesia, when used, will be administered according to routine clinical practice.
Primary Objective:
To evaluate the association between postpartum recovery quality measured using the ObsQoR-10 questionnaire and mother-infant bonding measured using the Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire (PBQ), and to investigate the role of labor epidural analgesia in this relationship.
Secondary Objectives:
To compare postpartum recovery quality between cohorts To compare mother-infant bonding outcomes between cohorts To evaluate postpartum pain, anxiety, depressive symptoms, and birth satisfaction To assess the association between obstetric variables and postpartum recovery outcomes
Assessments:
Prepartum:
STAIS-5 EPDS
Early postpartum period (6-24 hours):
ObsQoR-10 PBQ STAIS-5 EPDS Pain score (VAS/NRS) Birth satisfaction Likert scale
Postpartum week 2:
PBQ EPDS Participants will provide written informed consent before enrollment. All collected data will be anonymized and analyzed confidentially.
