Investigation of the Effect of Operating Room Environment and Cesarean Section Orientation on Physiological Parameters (BP, heart rate, respiration) in Mothers of Candidate for Cesarean Section in Shiraz, a Clinical Trial Study
Abstract
\n\nChanges in physiological parameters in pregnant women are important factors in mothers who are candidates for cesarean section. \n\n\n\n\n The aim of present study was to investigate the effect of operating room and cesarean section orientation on the physiological parameters (BP, heart rate, respiration) of pregnant women undergoing cesarean section.\n\n\n\n\n This clinical trial study was performed on 80 pregnant women referring to cesarean section in hospitals affiliated to Shiraz University of Medical Sciences in 2019. The samples were randomly divided into two control (n = 40) and intervention groups (n = 40). The intervention group participated in 4 sessions of training classes. The control group used routine hospital trainings. The parameters were measured before and after the intervention in two groups. Data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 21), independent t-test and analysis of covariance.\n\n\n\n\n The mean of post-training blood pressure in the intervention group 82.78(7.86) and in the control group 84.08 (7.44) was not statistically significant (p < .487). After intervention, the mean of heart rate in the intervention group 82.15 (8.10) and in the control group 83.43 (8.54) was statistically significant (p <0.0001). After intervention, the mean of respiratory rate in the intervention group was 94.28 (0.96) and in the control group was 75.96 (1.08) (P <0.0001).\n\n\n\n\n Although the patient s operating room and cesarean section orientation did not affect mothers mean blood pressure; it reduced the mean of their heart rate and respiratory rate. It is important for medical staff to play an important role in identifying important strategies in managing the anxiety of pregnant women in order to improve their physiological indicators.\n\n
