Brief Summary: Although labor pain is a physiological and natural process when the woman cannot cope with labor pain the health of the mother and fetus is negatively affected These negative effects mostly focus on the respiratory system cardiovascular system neuroendocrine and limbic system During birth the mother becomes exhausted due to pain and has to use all her energy to cope with the painWhen the mother can effectively cope with the pain of labor she starts motherhood with a positive experience experiences the happiness of actively participating in the birth of the baby can participate in practices with health professionals and the problems that can be seen in the newborn are reduced because there is no need for medication In this respect it is extremely important for the mother baby and family to end the birth process in the best possible way For this reason nursing care includes emotional physical spiritual and psychosocial continuous birth support and coping with the pain of labor In this direction the algorithm for coping with labor pain developed includes the interventions that should be done to cope with the pain in labor
Detailed Description: Pain is defined as an unpleasant emotional sensation originating from a certain part of the body often related to tissue damage and related to the past experiences of the person Labor pain is an experience that is a part of a natural process takes place in a limited time and is perceived and experienced differently by every woman Physiological changes during labor such as maternal age parity weight of mother and baby position of the fetus anatomical structure of the pelvis cervical dilatation and uterine contractions psychological factors such as perception of threats to the body or soul culture ethnicity anxiety loneliness loss of control fear that a painful or painful event will occur anxiety that the baby or himself may be harmed previous pain experiences and healthcare professionals communication with the pregnant woman Environmental factors such as noise lighting and birth pain significantly affect the pregnant womans coping with labor pain

Although labor pain is a physiological and natural process when the woman cannot cope with labor pain the health of the mother and fetus is adversely affected These negative effects mostly focus on the respiratory system cardiovascular system neuroendocrine and limbic system During birth the mother becomes exhausted due to pain and has to use all her energy to cope with the pain When the mother cannot cope she becomes tired and her oxygen requirement blood pressure and cardiac out-put increase Fear and anxiety caused by labor pain increase the release of stress hormones such as adrenaline noradrenaline and corticosteroid These hormones reduce the blood flow to the uterus and cause distress in the fetus by reducing the amount of oxygen in the placental flow In addition due to the increased adrenaline it causes a decrease in the amount of oxytocin during delivery This causes prolongation of labor and more bleeding At the same time when the woman is able to cope with labor pain the formation of tetany in the pregnant woman is prevented by preventing hyper ventilation and hypocapnia formation

When the mother can effectively cope with the pain of labor she starts motherhood with a positive experience experiences the happiness of actively participating in the birth of the baby can participate in practices with health professionals and the problems that may be seen in the newborn are reduced since there is no need for medication In this respect it is extremely important for the mother baby and family to end the birth process in the best possible way For this reason nursing care includes emotional physical spiritual and psychosocial continuous birth support and coping with the pain of labor Providing non-pharmacological pain relief methods such as relaxation and breathing exercises massage positioning therapeutic communication listening to music hot-cold application partner and family support providing home environment is associated with a positive birth experience Accordingly the algorithm for coping with labor pain developed by Roberts et al 2010 includes the interventions that should be done to cope with the pain at birth The algorithm for coping with labor pain has two branches One is the arm that shows pregnant ways of coping with pain such as rhythmic activity deep breathing inner focus relaxation between contractions which gives clues to healthcare professionals Another is the arm that enables the evaluation of the findings that show that the woman cannot cope with labor pain such as clenching her teeth crying and inability to focus According to the algorithm when a woman can cope with labor pain there is no need to do any intervention However when the woman cannot cope with labor pain it is easier for the woman to cope with labor pain with holistic birth support strategies such as providing physical comfort emotional comfort informative support and advocacy
