Summary

Labour pain has different locations, intensity, quality and meaning for each woman, and the experience of pain changes throughout the delivery process. This pain is often associated with varying degrees of fetal malposition, particularly occipito-posterior position, which may apply pressure on pain-sensitive structures within the pelvis. Administration of Injections into the sacral area (both posterior iliac spines and 2 cm downward and medial) is used and have been shown to relieve the pain of labor. Controlling pain with simple methods can reduce the desire of mothers to give birth by cesarean section and make them more diligent for normal birth.

The benefit we expect from the research; Since sterile water injection is a safe, effective and low-cost method, it is important to understand the effectiveness of its use to reduce labor pain. It also aims to increase the knowledge of gynecologists about this method.
