The Effect of Partner-Assisted Rebozo Application in the Intrapartum Period on Birth Fear, Pain and Satisfaction

Sponsor: Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa

Summary

The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the use of non-pharmacological methods for the relief of labor pain. The use of non-pharmacological methods in pain management helps women see their labor as a natural event and contributes to the reduction of cesarean section rates by increasing satisfaction with normal birth . The rebozo technique, a traditional method, originates from Latin America and is a non-invasive, non-drug practical application. The rebozo technique reduces or eliminates pain by creating rhythmic movements in the pelvic area. No study has been found evaluating the results of partner-assisted rebozo application in the intrapartum period. For this reason, it is important to conduct evidence-based studies examining the effects of the use of rebozo technique in labor. This randomized controlled study will contribute to the literature. For this purpose, this study was planned to examine the effects of partner-assisted rebozo application in the intrapartum period on fear of labor, pain, and labor satisfaction.
