Research Abstract

This study planned to develop a labor simulator for learning tool on basic research. The differences of the motion during the conduct of labor between students and experts were examined. The pressure sensor using pressure sensitive conductive ink was used to measure the pressure of the finger and the palm during the conduct labor. We measured the pressure during the conduct of labor on 13 students and 17 experts. Then the characteristic of the motion experts were extracted by the results from pressure sensor and motion picture. Expert mean pressure are higher than student ones and in addition the large variation of expert were showed during the conduct labor. The correlation coefficients between the pressure profiles of right hand and left hands during the delivery of the external occipital protuberance were calculated. It is founds that the best conduct labor method is frontage position method because It is the highest rate of synchronizing between right hand and lift hand during the conduct of labor.
