Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objectives of this study were to determine the vaginal examination techniques used by midwives through measurements with objective indicators; to determine the relation between midwives' vaginal examination techniques, number of years of work experience, and providing birth assistance; The study was conducted on 103 midwives working in hospitals.An actual measurement of five items (Cervical dilatation, position of the cervix, cervical consistency , cervical effacement, and station of the presenting fetal head) involved in vaginal examination was performed by using the first virtual-reality model of vaginal examination to have been developed in Japan.The accuracy rate of the vaginal examination based on the total score was 57.8%. the “station of the presenting fetal head” had the lowest accuracy rate.No relationship was found between the total scores of vaginal examination techniques, the midwives' clinical experience, and the number of births they had assisted.
