The two methods were not significantly different
in terms of pain intensity reduction,
progression, labor type and Apgar scores. In
addition, the effect of breathing on labor pain
reduction was more at 10 cm dilatation. Thus,
although implementation of breathing technique
requires training during pregnancy,
the simultaneous use of the two methods
would provide better results. It is recommended
to conduct a similar study on subjects
who undergo labor with another position
except lithotomy Furthermore, conducting
a study to compare the effects of simultaneous
use of both methods is suggested.
