Abstract:
Objective:To explore the protective effect of labor analgesia on pelvic floor muscle function of primipara after vaginal delivery.Methods:A total of 140 cases of primipara with vaginal delivery admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from March to August 2022 were selected retrospectively, and they were divided into control group (routine delivery) and observation group (painless delivery) according to the intention of delivery, each group with 70 cases. Labor pain, pelvic floor muscle function score and pelvic floor muscle status at 6 weeks postpartum, Female Sexual Function Scale (FSFI) score at 3 months postpartum and reported postpartum symptoms were compared between the two groups.Results:The scores of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at immediately after gastric antral empting, after drinking carbohydrates (5, 30, 60, 120 min) and at full opening of uterine orifice in the observation group were lower than those in control group, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). At 6 weeks postpartum, the maximum muscle voltage of pelvic floor muscle and the average muscle voltage of continuous contraction of pelvic floor muscle for 60 s in the observation group were higher than those in control group: (20.97 ± 2.64) μV vs. (17.31 ± 2.48) μV, (17.33 ± 3.01) μV vs. (13.42 ± 2.77) μV; the mobility of bladder neck and the hiatus area of levator anal muscle in resting state in the observation group were lower than those in the control group: (27.15 ± 3.55) mm vs. (31.05 ± 4.75) mm, (9.97 ± 2.12)cm 2 vs. (11.57 ± 2.84) cm 2, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). At 6 weeks postpartum, the scores of static pre-stage, static post-stage, type Ⅰ muscle fiber, type Ⅱ muscle fiber and total scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group: (67.21 ± 12.54) scores vs. (54.17 ± 10.84) scores, (69.12 ± 14.11) scores vs. (56.47 ± 11.24) scores, (63.54 ± 11.45) scores vs. (50.97 ± 10.74) scores, (57.15 ± 8.15) scores vs. (49.76 ± 6.44) scores, (64.25 ± 12.14) scores vs. (57.84 ± 20.57) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). At 6 weeks postpartum, the scores of FSFI in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). The rate of urine leakage, fever and mattress sweat reported in the observation group were lower than those in the control group: 22.86%(16/70) vs. 40.00%(28/70), 15.71%(11/70) vs. 30.00%(21/70), 30.00%(21/70) vs. 47.14%(33/70), there were statistical differences ( χ2 = 4.77, 4.05, 4.34, P<0.05). Conclusions:Labor analgesia can effectively shorten labor process, relieve labor pain and protect pelvic floor muscle function during vaginal labor in primipara.
