“…The increase in cervix dilation is gradual, as it increases, so uterine contractions and pain sensation becomes more evident. (19,27) According to Guyton and Hall, (27) delivery may be defined as a sequence of coordinates and involuntary uterine contractions which result in the progressive cervix dilation, leading to the expulsion of the fetus.…”

“…(18) The TENS group received technical intervention by placing adhesive type electrodes 4 cross-art in the paravertebral region between T10 and L1, because it is more effective to reduce pain frames present in the lower abdomen and lower back. (19) The apparatus used was TENS 993, Quark ® brand, applied to a frequency of 150 Hz, pulse duration of 80 μs and the intensity was determined according to the account of each patient. The application occurred for 20 minutes at 20 minutes intervals until the parturient reach 8 cm cervix dilation or when the fourth technical applications were concluded.…”

Background:The delivery pain is an unpleasant experience which may generate some insecurity for the woman. Thus, some methods of analgesia need to be studied in order to generate greater comfort for the woman during labor. Objective: to evaluate the effect of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and cryotherapy (CRYO) on labor pain. Method/Design: quasi experimental study, randomized sample in two groups: TENS and CRYO. Pregnant women were selected in the Carmela Dutra Maternity (Florianópolis (SC), Brazil) according to inclusion criteria: women which are pregnant for the first time, age (18-40 years) and initial cervical dilatation of 4-5cm. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate pain before and after each intervention. Results: 24 parturient women were studied (TENS = 11, CRYO = 13). In the TENS group, there was a significant result in pain relief after the first application (p = 0.002). VAS was reduced from 8 to 5.5, but not significant. In the CRYO group there was reduction of pain during the first application (p = 0.008), and in the second there was an increase in pain (p = 0.008). There was a significant difference between the techniques in the evaluation performed before the second application, with a lower value attributed to the CRYO group (p = 0.034). Conclusions: CRYO and TENS were effective in relieving pain during the first phase of the initial phase of labor. However, during the treatment, in the parturient women studied, there was maintenance of pain response by the CRYO group and decrease in the TENS group without reduction significant.

“…These data show the importance of TENS for the early return to functionality of these women 1,13,14 . A randomized study by Melo de Paula et al 15 has evaluated 30 women with abdominal and lower abdomen pain in the immediate postoperative period of C-sections, who were divided in groups A and B, each one with 15 women submitted, respectively, to electric stimulation and placebo (TENS turned-off ). Researchers have used conventional current TENS (F=100Hz and T=50µs) during 50 minutes after the end of the anesthetic effect.…”

“…Authors (17) reported that primipara women have a considerably different post-cesarean section pain experience than multipara women. In a study developed with post-cesarean section women (18) , primipara women and women who had second deliveries were assessed, aiming to avoid sample biases regarding pain. Regarding the pain during the labor, it tends to be minimized and better taken by women who had more than two deliveries (19)(20) .…”

“…The pain average was 4.3 at rest, 6.2 walking and 6.9 when sitting down and standing up, which, according to authors (12) , represents the moderate pain level. Others (18) found an average of 6.9 through the Numeric Scale for parous women who had gone through a cesarean section. In a study with post-abdominal surgery patients (15) , high scores were observed through the Numeric Scale, however, the Scale used was 21 points, different from the scale used in this study, with 11 points, which makes comparisons impossible (15) .…”

Objectives: To measure and characterize post cesarean section pain and to verify its relationship with limitations of physical activities. Methods: Descriptive study with 60 women in the post-operative period of cesarean section. Pain was measured with both the Numeric Scale and the McGill Pain Questionnaire. Limitations of physical activities were measured with a specific instrument developed for the study. Results: Sitting down and stranding up were the physical activities with the highest pain scores. All participants reported that the pain limited their movements for sitting down and standing up and characterized the pain as "annoying", "grasping" and "straining." Conclusion: Post cesarean section pain was rated as moderate. The pain led to limitations of physical activities for sitting down, standing up, and walking. Keywords: Cesarean section; Pain; Activities of daily living; Mobility limitation RESUMO Objetivo: Mensurar e caracterizar a dor após cesárea e verificar sua relação com a limitação de atividades. Métodos: Pesquisa descritiva com 60 puérperas após cesárea. Para avaliação da dor foram usadas a Escala Numérica e o Questionário de Dor McGill. As limitações de atividades foram avaliadas por instrumento elaborado pelas pesquisadoras. Resultados: A dor após a cesárea apresenta maiores escores no movimento de sentar e levantar. A dor é caracterizada como "incômoda", "que prende" e "que repuxa". Todas as participantes relataram que a dor limitava o movimento de sentar e levantar. Conclusão: Foi possível observar que a dor após a cesárea é caracterizada como moderada. A dor promove limitação principalmente nas atividades de sentar e levantar e caminhar. Descritores: Cesárea; Dor; Atividades cotidianas; Limitação da mobilidade RESUMEN Objetivo: Medir y caracterizar el dolor después de una cesárea y verificar su relación con la limitación de actividades cotidianas. Métodos: Investigación descriptiva con 60 puérperas después de una cesárea. Para evaluar el dolor fueron usadas la Escala Numérica y el Cuestionario del Dolor McGill. Las limitaciones de actividades fueron evaluadas por un instrumento elaborado por las investigadoras. Resultados: El dolor después de la cesárea presenta mayores puntajes en los movimientos de sentarse y levantarse. El dolor es caracterizado como "incomodo", "que sujeta" y "que se estira". Todas las participantes relataron que el dolor limitaba los movimientos de sentarse y levantarse. Conclusión: Fue posible observar que el dolor después de la cesárea es caracterizado como moderado. El dolor promueve limitaciones principalmente en las actividades de sentarse, levantarse y caminar.
