The purpose of this study was to identify procedural components to be used in analogue studies of preparatory techniques for childbirth. The questions asked were (a) which of four laboratory pain stimuli (modified submaximum effort tourniquet technique. Forgione-Barber pain stimulator, cold water stimulus, faradic shock) is most similar to the pain associated with the transition phase of labor? and (b) what is the patterning and duration of contractions and intercontraction intervals in this phase? Forty primiparous women rated their contractions (within 48 hours following delivery) and rated the four laboratory stimuli (six to eight weeks postpartum) using the McGill Pain Questionnaire. Significant correlational relationships were found between each laboratory stimulus and contraction ratings. Uterine monitor records were scored to obtain contraction and intercontraction data: mean number and duration of contractions, mean duration of intercontraction intervals. The general patterning of these variables was relatively stable. In a subsequent laboratory trial using the above parameters, the Forgione-Barber pain stimulator was found to be the stimulus of choice.
本研究的目的是确定用于分娩准备技术模拟研究的程序组成部分。所提出的问题是：(a) 四种实验室疼痛刺激（改良次最大努力止血带技术、福尔焦内 - 巴伯疼痛刺激器、冷水刺激、感应电休克）中哪一种与分娩过渡期相关的疼痛最为相似？以及 (b) 此阶段宫缩和宫缩间期的模式及持续时间是怎样的？40名初产妇在产后48小时内对其宫缩进行评分，并在产后六至八周使用麦吉尔疼痛问卷对四种实验室刺激进行评分。发现每种实验室刺激与宫缩评分之间存在显著的相关关系。对子宫监测记录进行评分以获取宫缩和宫缩间期数据：宫缩的平均次数和持续时间、宫缩间期的平均持续时间。这些变量的总体模式相对稳定。在随后使用上述参数的实验室试验中，发现福尔焦内 - 巴伯疼痛刺激器是首选刺激。
