“…Although few studies have been done on the application of heat and cold on labor, its effect was examined on other clinical conditions. 12 It seems that heat stimulates the thermal skin receptors and deep tissues to suppress pain through gate control theory.13 Shorter labor course is the other possible effect of heat therapy 13 , 14 . Ganji et al, studied the effect of local heat and cold on labor pain and child birth outcome in Iran.…”

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of two-stage warm compress technique on the pain duration of the first and second labor stages and neonatal outcomes. Methods: The clinical trial was done on 150 women (75 subjects in each groups) in Shiraz-affiliated hospitals in 2012 A two-staged warm compress was done for 15-20 minutes in the first and second labor phase (cervical dilatation of 7 and 10 cm with zero status) while the control group received hospital routine care. The duration of labor and Apgar score were evaluated. Results: According to t-test, the average of labor duration was lower in the intervention group compared to the control group at the second stage. However, there was no significant difference for labor duration at the first stage and the first and fifth minute Apgar score. Conclusion: According to the result, this intervention seems a good method for decreasing labor duration at the second stage of parturition.

“…Salah satu upaya non farmakologi adalah akupresur. Titik-titik akupresur yang terkait dengan penurunan intensitas nyeri saat persalinan diantaranya adalah LI4 (Hegu), BL67 (Zhiyin), SP6 (Sanyinjiao), PC6 (Neiguan), BL19 (Danshu), BL21 (Weishu), BL60 (Kunlun) (Mafetoni & Shimo, 2016;Mollart, Adam, & Foureur, 2015;Ozgoli, Mobarakabadi, Heshmat, Majd, & Sheikhan, 2016). Hasil penelitian sebelumnya yang dilakukan oleh Ozgoli (2016) menunjukkan bahwa akupresur pada titik LI4 dan BL32 secara signifikan dapat mengurangi nyeri persalinan dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol dengan sedikit keunggulan pada titik BL32 (Ozgoli et al, 2016).…”

Penelitian lain yang dilakukan oleh Sehhatie-Shafaie et al 2013, pada wanita nulipara menunjukkan bahwa akupresur pada titik sanyinjiao dan hegu juga secara signifikan menurunkan nyeri persalinan sehingga metode ini bisa digunakan secara efektif dalam proses persalinan (Sehhatie-Shafaie, Kazemzadeh, Amani, & Heshmat, 2013).…”

Labor pain is a physiological condition that most experienced by all women giving birth. Labor pain of the active phase is caused by cervical dilatation and distention of the uterine corpus. The purpose of this study was to determine the differences of acupressure effect on the combination of BL32 (Ciliao) and LI4 (Hegu) points with BL32 (Ciliao) and SP6 points (Sanyinjiao) toward the intensity of labor pain. The research design used Quasy Experiment with the approach of Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design with the Purposive Sampling technique. The population of this study was all maternity women at PMB Siti Zulaikah Jogoroto Jombang. The sample in this study was 22 respondents who include to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The pain scale instrument used was the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). The data were analyzed by using Paired T-Test and Independent T-Test with α ≤ 0.05. The results have shown that there was an effect of acupressure in both intervention groups on the intensity of labor pain with a value of p = 0.000 (p <0.05). There were no differences in the influence between the two intervention groups (4.09 ± 1.044 vs 4.82 ± 0.982; p = 0.108 (p>0.05). Acupressure on BL32 (Ciliao) and LI4 (Hegu) point combinations with BL32 points (Ciliao) and SP6 point (Sanyinjiao) effectively reduce the intensity of labor pain so it can be used as an alternative non-pharmacological intervention in reducing labor pain intensity.

“…In comparison, in Finland, 80% described labor pain as very severe and intolerable, and only 2-4% of mothers experienced mild pain during labor. 5 Research results in China were in phase the latent delivery rate of fetal distress in the moderate pain group was 36.6% higher than the mild pain group of 13.8%. In contrast, in the active phase of labor, the fetal distress rate was 36.5% in the severely ill group, significantly higher than the fetal distress in moderate pain group 18.5%.…”

Background: Labor pain feels tremendous, and only 2-4% of mothers low pain during labor. Heat therapy is a non-pharmacological method. The heat therapy is still conventional, and this study uses a relaxation belt with more stable, dry heat media, and comfortable.Objective: This study aims to develop and test a relaxation belt for efforts to reduce labor pain intensity and increase β-endorphin levels in the primigravida of the active labor phase.Method: This study Research and Development (R&D). It consisted of 5 stages; stage I (literature study), stage II (product development), stage III (expert validity and phase I trials), stage IV (product revision and final product), and stage V (phase II trials).Results: The relaxation belt has been created, it has been validity experts test and field trials. The result that the relaxation belt is more effective in reducing pain and increasing β-endorphin levels than warm water compress (mean different pain labor 2.40; p<0.01; effect size 1.72 and mean different increasing β-endorphin levels 53,34; p<0.01; effect size 2.42).Conclusion: The relaxation belt is effective in reducing labor pain intensity and increasing β-endorphin levels.
