Distribution of subjects according to mode
of labour and mode of delivery.
T able 3 shows that in experimental
group, 50% of the subjects had spontaneous
onset without acceleration of labour whereas,
in control group these were 10%. In
experimental group 3.3% subjects had
spontaneous onset and acceleration of labour
with other drugs (Drotaverin, Epidosin, and
Buscopan) and 16.7% in control group. 3.3%
subjects in experimental group had
spontaneous onset and acceleration of labour
with pitocin but in control group these were
10%. There was no single subject in the
experimental group who had spontaneous
onset and acceleration of labour with both
pitocin as well as with other drugs (Drotaverin,
Epidosin, and Buscopan) but in the control
group these were 13.3%. Subjects who had
induction with pitocin were 43.3% in
experimental group and 23.3% in control
group. No subject in experimental group had
both-induction with pitocin and acceleration
with other drugs whereas in control group
these were 26.7%. 100% of subjects in
experimental group had normal vaginal
delivery whereas in the control group, 73.3%
subjects had normal vaginal delivery and
26.7% had forceps and V entouse deliver y.
Results revealed that subjects who had
maintained upright positions significantly less
acceleration of labour with pitocin and with
other dr ugs and they had nor mal vaginal
delivery as per chi-square test (p400 minutes
but in the control group, 36.3%subjects had
duration of active phase of first stage of
labour>400 minutes. The results revealed that
there is significant difference in the both groups
in terms of duration of active phase of first
stage of labour as per chi-square test
