Impact of Using a Mirror in the Second Stage of Labor on Childbirth Duration and Experience
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Labor Mirror for Labor Stage, Second. Completed, enrolled 122 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study aims to investigate the impact of using a labor mirror during the second stage of labor on both the duration of labor and the mother's overall experience. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does using a labor mirror in the second stage of labor affect the duration of labor? * Does the use of a labor mirror in the second stage of labor affect women's total birth experience scale score? To assess the effect of using a birth mirror during the second stage of labor on the duration of labor and mothers' satisfaction with labor, the researchers will give one group a birth mirror and the other group will receive normal midwifery care. * In the second stage of labor, the birth mirror will be positioned so that the woman can see the progress of the baby as she pushes (lithotomy position). * Within 24 hours after delivery, mothers will complete the Birth Experience Scale and an opinion form about the use of the mirror. * The control group will not receive any intervention.
