Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Labor pain. Timepoint: before the intervention, Immediately, 15 minutes and 30 minutes after the intervention. Method of measurement: Numerical rating scale.;The length of the first stage of labor. Timepoint: From dilatation 3 cm to 10 cm. Method of measurement: Timer( Seiko watch). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Intensity of labor pain. Timepoint: Intensity of labor pain is measured in dilatations of 3-4 cm, 5-7 cm, 10-8 cm. These measurements are taken immediately, 15 minutes and 30 minutes after acupressure. Method of measurement: Pain measuring ruler (numerical rating scale).;The length of the first stage of labor. Timepoint: The length of the first stage of labor is measured from dilatation 3-4 cm to 10 cm. Method of measurement: The length of the first stage of labor is measured according to the official national clock of the Seiko model. | — |
