An important indicator of mothers' satisfaction with their care is birth satisfaction. Maternal health care can only be deemed to be of good quality if mothers are satisfied with the care they received. This increases maternal joy. A vital tool for understanding the delivery process from the mother's point of view is the Birth Satisfaction Scale - Revised (BSS-R). Nigeria stands to gain from the modification and implementation of BSS-R in terms of improving care, measuring maternal health, and reducing the high prevalence of adverse obstetric outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to convert the Birth Satisfaction Scale - Revised (BSS-R) into the Igbo language and examine its validity and reliability.
A study with a cross-sectional design was conducted on 500 women who gave birth at the Alex Ekwueme Federal University Teaching hospital in Abakaliki between March 1 and August 31, 2019. In the postnatal ward, data were gathered using the BSS-R questionnaire. SPSS version 20 was used to analyze the collected data. Through validation and reliability analyses, the scale's characteristics were examined. P-values less than 0.05 indicate a significant level.
The mean age of the women was 28.8 ± 4.7 years; the majority (230, 46.0%) were between the age group of 30-40 years. Three-fifth of the study participants had formal education. The majority (460, 92.0%) were multipara and had delivered mostly (326, 65.2%) at Full Term. Three Component loading were identified in the Scale. Examination of the pattern matrix showed three components/themes: support by staff during labour (I felt well supported by staff during my labour and birth (r = 0.875); parturient confidence during labour (I felt out of control during my birth experience (r = 0.714) and distraught during labour (I was not distressed at all during labour (r = 0.821). Communality value (r) mostly ranged between 0.507 and 0.801. The scale had a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.62. This increased to 0.70 following removal of "I was not distressed at all during labour" responses from the analysis.
The Igbo version of BSS-R has good internal consistency. It is a valid and a reliable scale to be employed in assessing maternal satisfaction among Igbo speaking women in the study area and Nigeria in general.
母亲对分娩护理的满意度是衡量她们对护理感受的一个重要指标。只有当母亲对所接受的护理感到满意时，孕产妇保健才能被认为是高质量的。这会增加母亲的喜悦感。《分娩满意度量表修订版》（BSS-R）是从母亲的角度理解分娩过程的一个重要工具。尼日利亚若对BSS-R进行修订和实施，有望在改善护理、衡量孕产妇健康状况以及降低不良产科结局的高发生率方面有所收获。
本研究旨在将《分娩满意度量表修订版》（BSS-R）翻译成伊博语，并检验其有效性和可靠性。
于2019年3月1日至8月31日在阿巴卡利基的亚历克斯·埃克乌梅联邦大学教学医院对500名分娩妇女进行了一项横断面研究。在产后病房，使用BSS-R问卷收集数据。采用SPSS 20版对收集到的数据进行分析。通过效度和信度分析来检验该量表的特性。P值小于0.05表示具有显著性水平。
这些妇女的平均年龄为28.8±4.7岁；大多数（230名，46.0%）年龄在30至40岁之间。五分之三的研究参与者接受过正规教育。大多数（460名，92.0%）是经产妇，且大多（326名，65.2%）为足月分娩。该量表确定了三个成分载荷。对模式矩阵的检验显示出三个成分/主题：分娩时工作人员的支持（我在分娩和生产过程中感到工作人员给予了很好的支持（r = 0.875））；分娩时产妇的信心（我在分娩过程中感到失控（r = 0.714））以及分娩时的心烦意乱（我在分娩过程中一点也不心烦（r = 0.821））。共同度值（r）大多在0.507至0.801之间。该量表的克朗巴哈系数为0.62。在分析中去除“我在分娩过程中一点也不心烦”的回答后，该系数增至0.70。
伊博语版的BSS-R具有良好的内部一致性。它是一个有效且可靠的量表，可用于评估研究区域以及整个尼日利亚讲伊博语妇女的孕产妇满意度。
