An experimental study was conducted on “Effectiveness of Lamaze Breathing on Labour pain among primi gravida mothers at Maternity Hospital, Hyderabad, Telangana. The objective of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Lamaze breathing on labour pain among primi gravida mothers in experimental group & Control group. A quantitative approach with quasi-experimental with post- test only control group research design was used to study the effectiveness of labour support measures on pain perception of mothers in labour. Sixty mothers in labour were selected by using simple random sampling technique and randomly assigned into two groups, i.e., experimental group (n = 30) and control group (n = 30). A structured interview questionnaire, Visual analogue pains scale (VAPS) and verbal response questionnaire were administered to assess the effectiveness of Lamaze breathing. Intervention was given to the experimental group, i.e., Lamaze breathing was provided during the first stage of labour after 3cm of cervical dilatation. Post interventional pain perception was assessed by using Visual Analogue pain scale after that researcher administered Lamaze breathing technique to the mothers during labour. 2 hours after the delivery the mother of the experimental group was assessed for Labour pain. There was a significant difference in experimental and the control groups.
The study results shows that the Mean scores were in Experimental group 2.87 SD 0.571, in Control group Mean scores was 4.07 SD 0.691 the Obtained “t” value is 7.327 greater than the table value 2.019 at df 58 was significant at P = 0.000 level of Significance it indicates that Lamaze breathing is effective on Labour pain among Primigravida mothers.
The study concluded that Lamaze breathing is an effective technique in reducing labour pain among primigravida mothers.
