The birth plan reflects the preferences and expectations of women in the delivery process and can be designed with the participation of women and her partner and implement as a basis for midwifery care during childbirth. This research was designed to promote the participation of low-risk pregnant women in the child birth process by developing a birth plan.
The present study is a participatory action research designed in a single specialized, main maternity hospital in Isfahan, Iran. This study was conducted in four stages proposed by the Kemmis, including planning, action, observation, and reflection with the participation of all midwives, gynecologists, and managers who involved in childbirth.
Considering the importance of childbirth as an opportunity for participation and empowerment of women, it seems that designing a birth plan based on the preferences of these women and all people involved in this process can strengthen women's participation in child birth process.
分娩计划反映了女性在分娩过程中的偏好和期望,可以在女性及其伴侣的参与下制定,并作为分娩期间助产护理的基础来实施。本研究旨在通过制定分娩计划来促进低风险孕妇参与分娩过程。
本研究是一项参与式行动研究,在伊朗伊斯法罕的一家单一的专业妇产医院进行。本研究按照凯米斯提出的四个阶段进行,包括规划、行动、观察和反思,参与人员包括所有参与分娩的助产士、妇科医生和管理人员。
考虑到分娩作为女性参与和赋权机会的重要性,基于这些女性以及参与此过程的所有人的偏好来设计分娩计划,似乎可以加强女性对分娩过程的参与。
