Abstract

Objective To understand the role of prenatal health education in successful delivery of birth. Methods 1500 admitted to the hospital during the period from January,2012 to December,2012 and expecting delivery of birth were chosen as subjects of the study and randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group,each consisting of 750 cases. The experimental group were regularly provided with prenatal former health education. The control group was given routine prenatal maternal health care,yet did not participate in any prenatal health education seminars. The two groups were then compared in maternal birth rate,postpartum hemorrhage,the birth process and the complication rate. Findings The rate of successful delivery in the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group( P 0. 05); Postpartum hemorrhage and complications rate were significantly lower than that of the control group( P 0. 05); Labor time was significantly shorter than that of the control group( P 0. 05). Conclusion Prenatal health education can improve early maternal birth rate and reduce the amount of early postpartum hemorrhage,shorten the birth process primipara,and reduce the incidence of early maternal childbirth complications effectively.
