Hypertension in the second trimester of pregnancy is accompanied by proteinuria that is called Preeclampsia Syndrome (PES). Body relaxation is a technique which makes harmony between mind and body. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Body Relaxation Technique (BRT) on some symptoms of Preeclampsia Syndrome (PES).
This clinical trial was conducted on 96 high-risk pregnant women who were selected by random sampling method from among women referring to community health centers of Isfahan city. The samples were divided into intervention and control groups by even and odd numbers. The intervention group members received BRT during 16 sessions. Blood pressure and proteinuria were measured and recorded before and after the intervention in both groups at the beginning and in the 36 week of pregnancy. The collected data were analyzed.
According to the Chi-square test, the frequency of PES was 11.10% and 23.50% in the intervention and control groups, respectively (χ = 3.95, df = 1, = 0.046). After the intervention, there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of the diastolic blood pressure and proteinuria. Systolic blood pressure and stress were also significantly reduced in the intervention group. However, proteinuria was not significantly different between the two groups.
Based on the results, the relaxation technique, as an easy technique, is recommended for pregnant women who are susceptible to pregnancy hypertension and preeclampsia. Moreover, as a clinical complementary method, it can be recommended for preventing the symptoms of PES.
妊娠中期高血压伴有蛋白尿，称为子痫前期综合征（PES）。身体放松是一种使身心和谐的技巧。本研究的目的是调查身体放松技巧（BRT）对子痫前期综合征（PES）某些症状的影响。
本临床试验对96名高危孕妇进行，这些孕妇是从转诊至伊斯法罕市社区卫生中心的女性中通过随机抽样方法选取的。样本按奇偶数字分为干预组和对照组。干预组成员接受了16次BRT。在妊娠开始时和第36周时，测量并记录两组干预前后的血压和蛋白尿情况。对收集的数据进行分析。
根据卡方检验，干预组和对照组中PES的发生率分别为11.10%和23.50%（χ = 3.95，自由度 = 1，P = 0.046）。干预后，两组在舒张压和蛋白尿方面无显著差异。干预组的收缩压和压力也显著降低。然而，两组之间的蛋白尿无显著差异。
基于研究结果，放松技巧作为一种简单的技巧，推荐给易患妊娠高血压和子痫前期的孕妇。此外，作为一种临床辅助方法，它可用于预防PES的症状。
