The mean fatigue level was calculated as 6 ± 2Æ85, and the
correlation between F / R ratio and fatigue level and fatigue
severity was statistically significant (p < 0Æ001 and
p = 0Æ007, r = 0Æ27, respectively).
A significant correlation was observed between the maternal
fatigue severity and the pattern of uterine contractions
using the Spearman’s correlation test (r = 0Æ22, p = 0Æ026).
Accordingly, with increasing fatigue level, the return time of
the contractions to baseline was prolonged in each contraction
