    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Score [In the labour (active and transition phase)]

      The score ranges from 1 to 10 peints, with increasing score reflecting more discomfort

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Postpartum Comfort Scale [At the enf of the delivery (In the 24 th hours)]

      It is possible to score between 9 and 45 on the scale. An increase in the scores obtained from the scale represents a high level of comfort.

    2. Posttraumatic Growth Inventory [At the enf of the delivery (In the 24 th hours)]

      A minimum of 0 and a maximum of 105 points can be obtained from the scale. As the score obtained from the scale increases, it is thought that the level of post-traumatic development is higher.
