Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
* After full dilatation of the cervix, assign participants in a 1:1 ratio to the study and control groups randomly.
* Ask women to select one closed envelope containing a card with the group allocation (study or control groups)
* Provide usual care according to the unit protocol to all the women until the second stage of labor.
* Provide the participants of the study group with a warm perineal compress during the whole second stage of labor
* Provide usual care according to the unit protocol to the participants of control group during the whole second stage of labor.
The process of applying the warm perineal compress
* Fill a clean container with warm water (45-59°C)
* Soak a clean pad in the water, squeeze then place gently on the perineum during each uterine contraction.
* Maintain the temperature between 38-44°C during its application.
* Re-soak the pad in warm water between contractions, to maintain warmth and then reapply.
* Replace the water in the container every 15 minutes until delivery or if the temperature drop below 45°C
