Abstract
OBJECTIVE
This research was designed to probe into the influences of natural shoulder delivery combined with free position delivery on pregnant outcome and genital tract of puerperants.
METHODS
Totally 128 puerperants who gave birth in our hospital from May 2018 to November 2019 were selected as the research objects. Among them, 66 in traditional position combined with traditional shoulder delivery were assigned to a conventional group (CG), and 62 in free position combined with natural shoulder delivery were assigned to a research group (RG). Their psychological mood, pain degree, pregnancy outcome, labor time, postpartum recovery and genital tract injury were compared.
RESULTS
Compared with the CG, the scores of visual analogue scale (VAS) pain, postpartum self-rating depression scale (SDS) and self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) in the RG during delivery were lower (P<0.05); the first, second, third and total labor stages in the RG were shorter (P<0.05). What's more, in the RG, the incidences of lateral episiotomy, urinary retention, stress urinary incontinence, transit cesarean section, shoulder dystocia and neonatal asphyxia were lower, while the perineum integrity and natural delivery rates were higher (P<0.05); the postpartum height of uterus, lochia discharge and blood loss were lower, while milk yield was higher (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
Natural shoulder delivery combined with free position delivery can effectively improve the pregnancy outcome, benefit the postpartum recovery, shorten the labor process and reduce the degree of genital tract injury. Hence, it is worthy of clinical application.
