Objective: To investigate the effects of psychological nursing combined with midwife-led positional care on labor duration and delivery outcomes in nulliparous women undergoing vaginal delivery.
Methods: This retrospective study included 110 nulliparous women who underwent vaginal delivery in our hospital’s obstetrics department between August 2023 and January 2025. Participants were divided into an observation group (n = 55, receiving psychological nursing combined with midwife-led positional care) and a control group (n = 55, receiving routine nursing interventions). Labor duration, sense of labor control, anxiety/depression scores, health knowledge mastery, and self-efficacy were compared between the two groups.
Results: No significant differences were observed in baseline clinical characteristics (eg, age) between the groups (P > 0.05), indicating comparability. The observation group exhibited significantly shorter labor durations during both the first and second stages of labor compared to the control group (402.65 ± 61.51/39.78 ± 5.91 vs 311.56 ± 50.69/26.58 ± 5.31, P < 0.05). Scores on the Labor Control Scale were markedly higher in the observation group (141.56 ± 11.6 1 vs 68.54 ± 12.61, P < 0.05). Post-intervention, the observation group reported lower anxiety (HAMA) and depression (HAMD) scores than the control group (13.14 ± 2.11/10.65 ± 1.45 vs 8.25 ± 1.52/7.34 ± 1.28, P < 0.05). Health knowledge levels regarding childbirth were significantly superior in the observation group (78.23 ± 5.56 vs 90.11 ± 5.14, P < 0.05), as were post-intervention CBSEI-C32 self-efficacy scores (88.23 ± 2.88 vs 98.56 ± 1.17, P < 0.05).
Conclusion: The integration of psychological nursing with midwife-led positional care effectively shortens labor duration, enhances health knowledge mastery and sense of labor control, alleviates negative emotions, and improves self-efficacy in nulliparous women. This joint intervention plan has empirical basis for clinical implementation.
