Brief Summary

In this proposed study, the investigators hope to assess the quality of recovery after delivery in a local population that would take into account physiological and psychological parameters to better understand the recovery process after delivery. The investigators will identify risk factors, especially those that are modifiable and associated with a poorer ObsQoR score and hence a poor quality of recovery after delivery. This data may then be used to educate women and manage expectations in the postpartum period, and help develop potential therapeutic interventions.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Change of ObsQoR-10-Chinese after 60 mins

  Postpartum day 1; 1 day

Secondary Outcomes (9)

• Correlation between ObsQoR-10-Chinese and global health status
