Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Visual analog scale (VAS)

    A 10 cm ruler with no pain at one end and the most severe pain at the other end, the patient's own pain signs, the use of VAS should be explained very well. This is natural; patients are said to have two extreme points and to be free to remember between these points. The validity and reliability of the scale were made by Aslan (1998).

  • State Anxiety Scale (VAS)

    Spielberger's State Anxiety Inventory: The scale was adapted to Turkish by Öner and Le Compte (1983) in 1964 by Spielberg and his friends in order to classify the degree of normal and abnormal situations. It is a self-assessment type scale consisting of short statements. The state anxiety inventory is available in a way that the person can use their anxiety at a certain moment, the state anxiety inventory consisting of 20 items is a scale that molds how the individual wants himself at a certain moment and under certain conditions. The emotions or behaviors expressed in the state record inventory classes are answered by marking one of the options (1) none, (2) a little, (3) a lot, (4) completely according to the degree of distribution. There are 10 reversed statements in the inventory. These statements are items 1, 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 15, 16, 19 and 20. The state anxiety score is calculated by adding the total weighted scores of direct and reverse statements to 50 points. The scores obtai

Study Arms (2)

Behavioral: Educational with milnacipran

EXPERIMENTAL

IStage 1: When the cervical dilatation of the pregnant woman was 4-5 cm, DCO was applied after VAS 1 application. VAS 2 was applied 15 minutes after DKÖ 1 was applied. Stage 2: When the pregnant woman's cervical dilatation was 6-7 cm, VAS 3 was applied by the researcher. VAS 4 was applied 15 minutes after VAS 3 was applied. Stage 3: DKÖ 2 was applied when the pregnant woman's cervical dilatation was 7-8 cm. Stage 4: VAS 5 was applied when the pregnant woman's cervical dilatation was 8 cm and above. VAS 6 was applied 15 minutes after VAS 5 was applied. Stage 5: When the cervical effacement and dilation of the pregnant woman is completed and the fetal head rests on the perineum, the pregnant woman is taken to the delivery table. Stage 6: In the fourth stage of labor, between the second and third hours, the researcher will apply DCO and NDAMDS.
