| Abstract: | ABSTRACT BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY The postpartum period begins immediately after childbirth. During postpartum, women experience discomfort and pain. The pain is mainly associated to perineal area. Perineal pain is the mostly associated after vaginal delivery with episiotomy. The episiotomy pain and poor wound healing are the problems that are generally encounter by the postnatal mothers who have undergone episiotomy. Inadequate management of episiotomy wound can causes infections and longer hospital stay and it may also delays in maternal and child bonding. Sitzbath are the common practices and effective method for perineal wound healing and reducing the episiotomy pain. Sitzbath warm water increases blood flow to the perineal area, this promote faster healing. METHODOLOGY An evaluative approach with Quasi Experimental pre-test post-test only design was used for the study. Puposive sampling technique was used to select postnatal mothers(n=30), which was allocccated in Experimental group I (n=15) and experimental group II (N=15). The Experimental group I received 5ml of 10% betadine sitzbath and Experimental group II received 10mg of halite salt sitzbath. Both the group received the intervention after 6-7 hours of delivery for 15-20 minutes, twice a day for 3 consecutive days. The episiotomy pain was assessed by Numerical Pain Rating Scale and wound healing was assessed by Davidson’s REEDA Scale. The pilot study was conducted from 09/3/21 to 23/03/21. The main study was done during the time period between 30/03/21 to 12/05/21. TOOLS Three tools were used to collect data, they were a demographic proforma, Numerical Pain Rating Scale and Davidson’s REEDA Scale. RESULTS The result for present study illustrated that, for episiotomy pain the Experimental group I (betadine sitzbath), pre-test mean score was 7.93 and standard deviation score was 0.68 and post-test mean score was 5.38 and standard deviation score was 0.83. Whereas, Experimental group II (halite salt sitzbath) pre-test mean score was 7.87 and standard deviation score was 0.96. and post-test mean score was 4.2, standard deviation was 0.91. The comparison between the Experimental group I and Experimental group II, shows a significant difference and it was calculated by using unpaired “t”-test. The degree of freedom was 28 and the value for unpaired “t”-test was 5.13=0.001(P<0.05). For wound healing, among the Experimental group I (betadine sitzbath), pre-test mean score was 3.2 and standard deviation score was 1.17 and post-test mean score was 1.93 and standard deviation score was 093. Whereas, Experimental group II (halite salt sitzbath) pre-test mean score was 3.67 and standard deviation score was 0.77 and pre-test mean score was 1.27 and standard deviation score was 0.57. And the comparison between the Experimental group I and Experimental group II, shows a significant difference and it was calculated by using unpaired “t”-test. The degree of freedom was 28 and the value for unpaired “t”-test was 6.67=0.000015(P<0.05). CONCLUSION The present study concluded that both betadine sitzbath and halite salt sitzbath is effective for episiotomy pain and wound healing. While comparing, the halite salt sitzbath is much more effective than the betadine sitzbath for episiotomy pain and wound healing. |
