Outline of Final Research Achievements |
ThThis study aimed to elucidate the effects of prenatal childbirth fear on resting autonomic modulation among low-risk pregnant women during the last trimester, and to validate the effects of heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback. We surveyed 97 low-risk pregnant women in their 32nd-34th week of gestation and measured childbirth fear and resting autonomic modulations. Women with moderate or severe childbirth fear were advised to practice HRV biofeedback at home for 3-4 weeks. High frequency power, an HRV parasympathetic modulation index, was significantly lower in women with severe childbirth fear than in those with moderate childbirth fear. Women practicing HRV biofeedback showed a significant reduction of W-DEQ but did not show significant influence on autonomic modulations, sleep quality and fatigue.
