Background: Pain control is considered as the key issue in modern midwifery. Along with medical painkillers, reflexology is viewed as a non-medical and noninvasive method. Hence, we aimed to investigate the effect of reflexology on the intensity of pain and length of labor. Materials and Methods: In this clinical trial, participants included 240 Iranian primiparous women with term and singleton pregnancy. Having a 3-4 cm cervical dilatation once they visited the hospital. Through a convenient sampling method, they were selected and then randomly divided into two groups. In the intervention group, reflexology was performed, and the intensity of pain during the active phase of labor along with the length of labor in the active phase was measured by visual analog scale (VAS) and compared with the control group. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, and Mann-Whitney U-test. Result: Data analysis showed a statistically significant difference between the intensity of pain in the 5-7 and 8-10 cm dilatation in the two groups (P=0.01). Moreover, the labor length in the active phase was found to be significantly shorter in the intervention group (P<0.001). Conclusion: It appears that reflexology can lead to a reduction in the pain and length of labor. Therefore, through instructing this technique, a goal of midwifery, which is reducing labor pain and its length can be achieved. Keywords: Reflexology, Labor Pain, Labor Length, Primiparous Women

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of a non-pharmacological childbirth care protocol in women in the active phase of labour in improving obstetric and perinatal outcomes. Design: Randomized trial with concealed allocation, assessor blinding, and intention-to-treat analysis. Setting: Reference Centre of Women’s Health of Ribeirão Preto–MATER, São Paulo, Brazil. Methods: Eighty low-risk primiparous women at the end of pregnancy and beginning of the active phase of labour were randomized to experimental group (EG) (n=40) or control group (CG) (n=40). Women in EG received four interventions: ambulation at 4 to 6 cm of cervical dilation; alternative maternal positions associated with TENS at 6 to 7 cm, and a warm shower bath at >7 cm. The CG received only routine obstetric. Main outcome measures: The length of the active phase of labour, the expulsive phase duration, and the prevalence of labour dystocia assessed by the partograph. Results: The parturients who received the sequential non-pharmacological protocol had a shorter length of the active phase of labour (CG=444 minutes; EG=373 minutes; p=0,02), presented rupture of membranes later in labour (CG=7cm; EG=8cm; p<0,01), requested pharmacological analgesia with more significant cervical dilatation (CG=5cm; EG=8cm; p<0,01) and had lower labour dystocia rates than the patients in the CG. Conclusion: The implementation of a sequential non-pharmacological protocol has the potential in decreased and delayed use of pharmacological analgesia, duration of the active phase of labour and dystocia rates. Keywords: length of labour, labour pain, dystocia, randomized controlled trial, non-pharmacological resources, pharmacological analgesia.
