Intrapartum Nurse Perception of Labor Support After Implementation of the Coping With Labor Algorithm.
The Coping with Labor Algorithm positively impacted intrapartum (IP) nurses, increasing their perceived frequency of labor support interventions and slightly shifting their birth beliefs. This study highlights the algorithm's potential to enhance nursing practice during childbirth.
Area of Science:
- Nursing
- Obstetrics
- Healthcare Interventions
Background:
- Intrapartum (IP) nurses play a crucial role in supporting women during labor and birth.
- Existing practices may influence nurses' beliefs toward birth and the interventions they provide.
- Standardized algorithms can potentially guide and standardize labor support.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the impact of the Coping with Labor Algorithm on intrapartum nurses' beliefs regarding birth practices.
- To assess changes in the perceived frequency of labor support interventions utilized by IP nurses after algorithm implementation.
Main Methods:
- A pre- and post-intervention survey design was employed.
- Participants completed the IP Nurses' Belief Toward Birth Practice Scale and the Labor Support Scale.
- Nurses implemented the Coping with Labor Algorithm and Toolkit between surveys.
Main Results:
- A positive change was reported in nurses' perceived frequency of labor support interventions.
- A slight shift in nurses' beliefs toward birth practices was observed post-intervention.
- 13 IP nurses completed the post-intervention survey, with 23 completing the pre-intervention survey.
Conclusions:
- The Coping with Labor Algorithm appears to positively influence intrapartum nurses' practices and perceptions.
- Implementation of the algorithm may lead to increased labor support and subtle changes in birth beliefs.
- Further research with larger sample sizes could validate these findings.
