In the hospital of Cebu Puericulture Center and Maternity House all labor-delivery-recovery rooms (LDRs) are designed to accommodate the birthing process from labor through delivery and recovery of mother and baby. Equipment is moved into the room as needed, rather than moving the patient to the equipped room. Each labor room shall contain a hand washing facility and they do have the access to toilet room. In two labor rooms there is one toilet room and each of it must be controlled in accessing the toilet rooms that has been arranged in nursing station. At least one shower (which may be separate from the labor room if under staff control) for use of patients in labor shall be provided. Windows in labor rooms, shall be located, draped, or otherwise arranged, to preserve patient privacy from casual observation from outside the labor room.

Bed Assignment

            Hospital address capacity issues in a number of ways. A common approach is to seek licensure for more beds – an expensive investment. Expanding bed capacity through licensure may be necessary. But incorporating a bed management system is a less costly solution that makes better use of existing resources. Bed management systems maximize existing capacity by efficiently moving patients through care delivery.

Bed manages systems provides nurses data necessary to assess performance measures based on activity, thus increasing resiurce of effectiveness.(Technology alleviates bed management woes by: Pam Parker, RN, C, BSN, MBA; Nursing Management 2005) Date Retrieved, May 21, 2010.

Federal health planners propsed a series standards for most of the nation’s hospitals that they said would reduce the number of unneeded beds by 100,00 over the next seven years. The standards, which are aimed at further constraining almost runaway hospital charges, would limit acute care hospital beds to four pero 1, 000 persons throught the country and set a minimum level of 80 percent occupancy in genral hospitals in an effort to force the closing of inefficient and expensive facilities. The specifics of the proposals are also intended in the interests of efficiency to concentrate obstetrical and pediatric services in fewer hospitals and reduce the numbers of high cost (http://news.google.com/newspapers) Date Retrieved, May 23, 2010.

As nurses, we must asses and treat one patient whose body has been anatomically and physiologically change by pregnancy and another whom we cannot see, touch, inserted an IV catheter into, or place an oxygen mask on. It’s essential that we understand the changes associated with pregnancy, which can affect both the nature of an injury and  the body respones to it, and their implication i the assessment and treatment of both patients.

Nurses and midwives are registered with their advanced training in care of obstetric patients. They provide care for about 6% of the birth in the United States and Canada (ventura et al. 1998). Nurse-midwives may practice with physicians or independently and with an arrangement for a physician back up. They usually see low risk obstetrics patients .( Wong et al. 2002)

Nursing assistance has a traditional role and a professional role to fulfil: of clinical assessment of the progress of labor and physical status of mother and fetus. In addition, emotional support is provided by expressing caring and dependability as well as being an advocate for the childbearing woman if needed.  They should display a tolerant non-judgmental attitude, ensuring that the woman is accepted whatever her reactions to labour may be. Women who feel in control of their own bodies, who retain control of thir behavior and who feel they have an active part in decision making have a more satisfactory birth experience.

Physical

            Bed rest is often prescribed to pregnant women who shows signs of distress of preterm labor, despite of evidenced of its effectiveness in preverting adverse outcomes. However, the bed rest must include many psychologic and metabolic changes related to musculoskeletal reconditioning.

The objective of the study is to know the influence of back pain and physical ability on quality of life in late pregnancy. Irrespective of back pain the pregnant women studied featured lower quality of life (QOL) compared with published data on healthy women. Among the women with back problems, who had the most impaired QOL, the factors affecting QOL were mostly related to physical ability (http;//www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pbmed/10789670) Date Retrieved, February 25, 2010.

 

            All women stated they were physically supported by their female companions. Examples of this physical help included position changing, massaging, and help with walking them to the bathroom. The majority ( n=18) of women stated that the presence of their female relative helped facilitate communicating their wishes and needs to the care providers. The remaining seven women stated that the presence of their female support relative created some minor conflict with midwives, who seemed to view the relatives as interfering with the process of care. (Enkin, M., Keriese, M., Neilson, J., Crowther, C., Duley, L., Hodnett, E., et al. (2000).

Previous research has shown that intrapartum practices in Jordan are not always based on the best on the best evidenced in the literature (Khresheh; Kresheh et al., 2007; Sweidan et al., 2008). Women in the sample expected poor support from their healthcare professionals, but when allowed to have support in labor from family members, they readjusted their expectations and had a more positive experience (Dahlen et al., 2008) The physical support provided by the female companion encouraged this sample of pregnant woman to relax. This may reduce theri stress response resulting in an improved pattern of labor ( Taylor et al., 2000).

The physiological dimension addresses factors that affect the client’s physical status, such as rest and relaxation, treatment of medical condtions, level of nutrition and hydration, and elimination of wastes (Kolcaba, 1992a, p. 34). The physical comfort is comprised with all the ramifications in physiological which is associated with medical problems that would or would not result in the physical sensations at once. One of the signifcant examples for the physical comfort are the homeostatic mechanisms such as the fluid and electrolyte balance, blood chemistries, oxygen saturation and other indicatiors of health metabolically.

Many studies have provided evidence about the positive influences that women may be exposed in receiving the support from the companion during at birth. Sauls 2002 published an overview of the randomized controlled trials related to the effectiveness of labor support on birth and maternal outcomes, reporting that all studies found benefits; the most powerful beneficial effects occurred when support was provided by a birth companion rather than by a health professional. Other studies of laboring have also identified the positive effects of help given by a support companion who was present and provided verbal encouragement (Parpinelli & Osis, 2007).

A supportive companion has been shown to have a possitive influence on the womans satisfaction with the birth process, and does not interfere with other events, interventions, or neonatal outcome, or breastfeeding. The evidence for the effectiveness of support in labor is strong enough for the World Health Organization to have recommended that woman in labor must be accompanied by people with whom she feels comfortable and trusts ( Bruggemann, , Cecatti, & Neto, 2007)

            There is scarcity of evidence on the effects of the presence of companion during the birth process in developing countries. In a larger part of this current study (Kresheh, 2008), a total of 226 nulliparos women who were admitted to Al-karak government hospital for birth were asked if they wanted a female relative to stay with them. Findings showed significant effects on labor and birth outcomes, with less use of pharmacologic pain relief, and improvement in the womens general perception of their birth experience (World Health Organization. 2007).

The labor room should be such that the woman is not considered is not constrained by lack of privacy or lack of supports such as cushions and beds from adopting her preferred position. In a hospital environment, it may help to move the labor from its traditional place in the middle of the room, and to place other support such as cushions and birth balls I the room so that the mother is free to roam from one to another as the labor dictates. Low lighting and music of her choice may help the woman to see a safe and secure place to give birth. Minimizing unnecessary intrusion by the other  member of staff is essential.(Fraser et al.2003)

Psychospiritual

Anxiety is a major dtractor form psychospiritual comfort and some include in this context are confusing, incomplete or negative information; threatening diagnoses; fear and the prspect of a change in routine or health status (http://ivythesis.typepad.com/term_paper_topics/2008/12/sample-resear-2.html) Date Retrieved, May 23, 2010.

According to Hamilton the theme of second comfort are self-esteem, which includes their faith in God, independency, relaxation, productivity. These contexts of psychological and spiritual comfort are combined in forming the context of psychospiritual. This comfort is comprises of mental, emotional, and spiritual components of self. It has been evolved to give the meaning of life to an individual which is associated with self-esteem, self-concept, sexuality and relationship to a higher order or being of oneself (Kolcaba, K., 1997).

Parity

Traditionally, aged pregnant women have the chances to have an adverse event in the pregnancy outcome compared to the younger pregnant women. In fact, majority shows that in the literature of medicine in concerning with late childbearing that relates to women ages between 30 to 45 years. Anyhow, research studies have showed that the performance of pregnancy and the outcome of neonatal among the group of mothers with an age of less than 35 years are almost similar to the younger age (Kirz et al., 1985; Ho et al., 1986). Findings constitutes a challenging to the recent definition in advanced maternal age that uses 35 years as the cut-off point with reference to the age-related effects on the pregnancy. There is a higher incidence in primiparous mothers that may be associated in antepartum hemorrhage and hypertensive disorders.

The factors influencing birth experience as acceptable were multiparous women (Para 2-3) in 128 (68.08%) cases; primigravidas in 61 (80.26%) cases, study have shown that the pain threshold of pregnant women differs from the number of birth experiences. Furthermore, labour pain is nearly a universal experience for childbearing women but threshold of this pain varies between individuals (http://jpma.org.pk/full_article_text.php?article_id=2106) Date Retrieved, May 24, 2010.

Hospital room Accommodation 

In some countries, having a companion in labor room is not allowed due to some cultural or other reasons that may affect the perception of pregnant women (policy does not allow, place too crowded, no privacy, bad advice from companion etc). It was discussed and agreed that there is a need for midwives to use their knowledge and scientific evidence available to influence policy in ensuring that companions are not allowed, it can also still be considered. In those countries which allows companion but not permitted in labor ward because they ma be able to give wrong advices. In that sense, midwives were challenged in ensuring that the companion will give an adequate and right information before the labor starts to develop the optimism which will help the pregnant women at labor. http://whqlibdoc.who.int/hq/2005/ICM_report_eng.pdf) Date Retrieved, May 23, 2010.

According to the CHCAA’s interpretation, the Ontario Health Insurance Act requires that public hospital must provide overnight accommodation at the standard ward level at no charge to the patient. In addition, The Canada Health Act states that all Canadians are entitled to the level of accommodation required by the patient’s medical condition at no charge. Funding – including Federal Transfer Payments – for these scenarios is provided to the hospitals by the province (http://www.chcaa.org/education/HospitalWP.pdf) Date Retrieved, May 23, 2010.

 Theoretical and Conceptual Framework

  

In the theory of comfort by Katharine Kolcaba it states that the concept of comfort has a firm association in nursing. Traditionally, the nurse will provide comfort to the patients and their families with an observation of comfort measures. Internationally, the actions of comfort in strengthening the patients and families. If the patients and families were strenghtened with actions of nurses, they can be engaged in seeking health beahvior. (http://www.thecomfortline.com/comfort-theory.html)

 

The researcher anchored this theory in their research since the dependent variable in this research is comfort. Basically the main topic here is about the comfort that the mothers in the labor room are experiencing. every patient in the hospital deserves to have comfort.

 

In this research, the researchers are trying to find out the relationship of lack of beds in the comfort of pregnant women in the labor room of Davao Regional Hospital Tagum City.

 

Figure 1 shows the conceptual framework of the study. It consist of three variables. The Independent variable is the labor room accommodation and the dependent variable is the comfort of pregnant women. The moderators are the parity and ward.
