“…Two recent systematic reviews have examined the role of acupressure on onset and duration of labour (Makvandi 2016;Mollart 2015). Both reviews focused on studies that included women in active labour, once contractions had onset, which are excluded by our review protocol.…”

“…Os autores descreveram que a auriculoterapia pode reduzir condições que envolvem o TP distócico e possivelmente reduzir a taxa de cesárea, ocorrida somente em uma participante nesse estudo. Em metanálise 15 com nove estudos, a acupressão aumentou a chance de parto vaginal, quando comparada ao placebo e ao atendimento usual (odds ratio 2.329, IC 95% 1,348-4,024, p = 0,002; diferença de risco de 8,9%, IC 95% 2,7% -15.0%, p = 0,005). Todavia, outros estudos com acupuntura não encontraram diferenças estatísticas sobre a via de parto 14 , como também não ficaram claros em nossos resultados os efeitos da auriculoterapia sobre o desfecho do parto.…”

“…A acupressão, terapia realizada por meio de pressão com os dedos ou mãos em pontos de acupuntura, demonstrou resultados promissores na redução da fase ativa do TP em 1,310 horas (IC 95% 1,738-0,882; p < 0,001) e no período expulsivo do TP em 5,808 minutos (IC 95% 1,615-0,807; p < 0,001), mostrou uma metanálise 15 , tendência também observada nos resultados deste ECR.…”

Objetivo: avaliar os efeitos da auriculoterapia sobre o tempo de trabalho de parto e taxa de cesárea. Método: trata-se de um ensaio clínico controlado e randomizado, paralelo e triplo-cego. Foram selecionadas 102 parturientes com idade gestacional ≥ 37 semanas, dilatação cervical ≥ 4 cm e duas ou mais contrações em 10 minutos. As parturientes foram distribuídas aleatoriamente em três grupos em um hospital universitário do interior do estado de São Paulo, Brasil, para receber: auriculoterapia, placebo ou participar como controle, sem intervenção. A auriculoterapia foi aplicada com microesferas de cristal em quatro pontos estratégicos. A comparação dos efeitos do tratamento foi feita por meio dos testes: Kruskal-Wallis, exato de Fisher e qui-quadrado. Resultados: a média de duração do trabalho de parto foi menor no grupo de auriculoterapia (607,8 versus placebo: 867,9 versus controle: 694,7 minutos; p-valor = 0,845); a taxa de cesárea foi maior no grupo placebo (55,9% versus auriculoterapia: 26,5% versus controle: 20,6%; p-valor = 0,0045). Conclusão: as parturientes que receberam auriculoterapia mostraram menor taxa de cesárea em relação ao grupo placebo e menos tempo de trabalho de parto ao comparar com os demais grupos, porém novos estudos se fazem necessários. Registro: nº RBR-47hhbj.

Sebuah studi meta analisis oleh Makfandi, dkk (2016) juga menunjukkan akupresur berpengaruh terhadap lama persalinan dan jenis persalinan [18]. Kombinasi akupresur Hegu LI 4 dan kompres hangat juga dapat mengurangi nyeri pasca intubasi [19].…”

Childbirth is a moment full of stress that causes pain, fear, and anxiety. Acupressure Hegu LI 4 is one of the techniques to reduce pain during labor. Objective of the study was to identify the difference in pain on first stage active phase of labor in acupressure Hegu LI 4 group and control group. Samples were obtained through consecutive sampling technique from parturient which fulfill inclusion criteria. The study was a quasy experiment design. Data analysis used mean and deviation standard for univariate analysis, Independent Sample T Test for bivariable analysis, and linier regretion for multivariable analysis. Mean of decrease of pain labor in aromatheraphy group was higher than control group. The mean decrease in pain score in the intervention group was 3.03 ± 0.669 while the mean reduction in pain in the control group was 2.07 ± 0.740. The average difference from the Independent Sample T Test obtained significant results with P values <0.001 and 95% C.I.-1,331-(-0,602). Analysis of external variables that affect the decrease in labor pain scores is anxiety with P value = 0.020. The results of this study are expected to be the basis of studies in the field of midwifery, especially labor on effective methods to reduce labor pain in a non-pharmacological manner.

Meta‐analysis of the effect of acupressure on duration of labor and mode of delivery

Abstract: Acupressure could have a role in reducing the rate of cesarean delivery and decreasing the duration of labor in parturient women. However, there is a need for more reliable randomized controlled trials.
