Effect of Midwives' Application of Intelligent Delivery Room Management System on Delivery Outcome

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of midwives using an intelligent delivery room management system on the outcome of deliveries. METHOD: A total of 100 primiparas admitted to the department of obstetrics and gynecology of our hospital from January 2019 to June 2020 were selected as the research objects. They were randomly assigned to one of two groups: control or observation. The control group got standard obstetric care. On the basis of the control group, midwives in the observation group applied the intelligent delivery room management system for delivery management. The outcomes of childbirth, postpartum anxiety, and postpartum depression were recorded and compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The observation group's first and second stages of labour were shorter than the control group's (P < 0.05), postpartum NRS score was lower than the control group's (P < 0.05), neonate Apgar score was higher than the control group's (P < 0.05), and the rate of vaginal delivery to caesarean section was lower than the control group's (P < 0.05). There was no statistical significance in prenatal S-AI scores between the observation group and the control group (P > 0.05). After delivery, the S-AI score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, and the comparison result was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in prenatal EPDS scores between the observation group and the control group (P > 0.05). After delivery, the EPDS score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, and the comparison result was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Midwives may employ sophisticated delivery room management technologies to improve birth outcomes and reduce maternal anxiety and depression, and it is something that should be extensively promoted in clinic.
