Effect of Upright Position on Pain and Duration of the Active Phase of the First Stage of Labor among Women in Labor in the Work Area of Tasikmalaya TPMB

---

Prolonged labor is one of causes of maternal and infant death.
Several causes of prolonged labor are inefficient uterine
contractions, presentation or position of the fetus, inadequate pelvic
bones or abnormalities of maternal soft tissues, which result in
failure to progress in labor and an increase in the incidence of
Caesarean section delivery. The upright position will encourage
stronger and more efficient contractions, wherein gravity will occur
to keep the baby's head pressed towards the lower uterine segment
so as to help cervical dilation and shorten the duration of labor.
Upright positions in the first stage of labor include walking,
standing, sitting, half-sitting, kneeling, and crawling positions. This
study aims to determine the effect of upright position compared to
supine position on the level of pain and the duration of the active
phase of the first stage of labor among primigravida women in labor.
This was a quasi-experimental study with a post-test only design.
There were 100 study samples who were assigned in the control
group and the intervention group, consisting of 50 respondents,
respectively. The study was conducted at the Tasikmalaya TPMB.
Data collection was carried out for approximately 6 months on
March-August 2022. The results showed that primigravida women
in the active phase of the first stage of labor with upright position
had a shorter duration of labor compared to those with supine
position. Independent t test results obtained a p value = 0.000 (p<
0.05). Such finding indicated a statistically significant difference.
Based on the results of the data analysis, it can be concluded that
there was a significant difference in the duration of the active phase
of the first stage of labor between upright position and supine
position among women in labor in the Work Area of Tasikmalaya
TPMB.
