This study aimed to determine effectiveness of peanut ball on the duration of the stages of labour and frequency of caesarean section.
A systematic review and meta-analysis.
A comprehensive electronic search was carried out with no time limit until December 2020. Collected data were analysed using software RevMan- version 5.3. Heterogeneity was assessed using I , T , and . GRADE approach was used to assess the certainty of evidence.
The meta-analysis on six clinical trials with 645 participants showed no statistically significant difference between the two groups in caesarean surgery rate (RR = 0.82) and length of the first (MD = -15.64).
Therefore, further clinical trials with stronger evidence should be carried out to assess the effectiveness of peanut ball on caesarean surgery rate and length of first and second stages of labour.
本研究旨在确定花生球对产程各阶段持续时间和剖宫产率的影响。
系统评价和荟萃分析。
无时间限制,截至 2020 年 12 月,进行了全面的电子检索。使用 RevMan-版本 5.3 软件分析收集的数据。使用 I ² 、T 和 评估异质性。使用 GRADE 方法评估证据的确定性。
对 6 项临床试验(645 名参与者)的荟萃分析显示,两组剖宫产率(RR=0.82)和第一产程(MD=-15.64)无统计学差异。
因此,应开展进一步的临床试验,以评估花生球对剖宫产率以及第一、二产程持续时间的有效性。
