Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
The number of patients who are being induced for labour has increased in the present days as compared to the past. Generally patients are being induced for medical or obstetrical indications. Maternal satisfaction in these cases is not taken into prime consideration. The level of patient satisfaction is an important determinant of the proper functioning of the healthcare system. In our study we aim a factorized comparison of the level of maternal satisfaction in induced and spontaneously progressing patients. Antenatal mothers admitted in our hospital for safe confinement during the time period from January 2015 to May 2015 were enrolled in our study. Minimum 50 patients who spontaneously progressed and 50 induced patients were studied. It is a prospective study and descriptive analysis and comparative study were used to analyze the results. Sampling method used was purposive sampling. Questionnaire method was used to collect data. Patients planned for elective cesarean section were not included in the study. All patients going into spontaneous/induced labor were taken into consideration.
