Abstract (English)  :

A prospective quasi-experimental study was conducted to determine women’s perceptions of their childbirth experiences using a birth chair. The sample consisted of 55 primiparas, from 37 to 41 gestational weeks, with normal pregnancy and labor; 22 women delivered on a traditional delivery table (DT), and 33 women used a birth chair (BC). A questionnaire consisting of 21 items on a five-point scale (the higher the score, the more positive the perception) was self-administered by subjects during postpartum hospitalization. No significant differences were found between groups on overall score. However, women using the birth chair had a significantly higher score on the comfort subscale, as did women who had attended prepared childbirth classes.
