Supportive care and childbirth have been connected for all of recorded history. The impact of supportive care on health outcomes, however, has only been investigated over the last few decades. Research provides powerful evidence of improved outcomes for mothers and babies when mothers are supported in labor. These outcomes include, but are not limited to, lower rates of analgesia and anesthesia use, lower operative birth rates, shorter labors, fewer newborns with 5-minute Apgar scores less than 7, increased maternal satisfaction with the birthing process, and much more. Intrapartum nurses must be knowledgeable of the research that is directly related to critical aspects of their care, such as labor support. This article provides an overview of the quantitative research related to the effect of labor support on birth and maternal and fetal outcomes during childbirth. By understanding and applying this research in clinical practice, bedside nurses may improve outcomes and transform intrapartum care.
在有记录的历史中，支持性护理与分娩就一直紧密相连。然而，支持性护理对健康结局的影响仅在过去几十年才得到研究。研究有力地证明，当母亲在分娩过程中得到支持时，母亲和婴儿的结局会得到改善。这些结局包括但不限于：镇痛和麻醉使用率降低、手术分娩率降低、产程缩短、5分钟阿氏评分低于7分的新生儿减少、产妇对分娩过程的满意度提高等等。分娩期护士必须了解与她们护理的关键方面直接相关的研究，比如分娩支持。本文概述了与分娩支持对分娩及分娩期间母婴结局的影响相关的定量研究。通过在临床实践中理解并应用这项研究，床边护士可以改善结局并改变分娩期护理。
