BackgroundWomen’s childbirth experience can have immediate as well as long-term positive or negative effects on their life, well-being and health. When evaluating and drawing conclusions from research results, women’s experiences of childbirth should be one aspect to consider. Researchers and clinicians need help in finding and selecting the most suitable instrument for their purpose. The aim of this study was therefore to systematically identify and present validated instruments measuring women’s childbirth experience.MethodsA systematic review was conducted in January 2016 with a comprehensive search in the bibliographic databases PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, The Cochrane Library and PsycINFO. Included instruments measured women’s childbirth experiences. Papers were assessed independently by two reviewers for inclusion, and quality assessment of included instruments was made by two reviewers independently and in pairs using Terwee et al’s criteria for evaluation of psychometric properties.ResultsIn total 5189 citations were screened, of which 5106 were excluded by title and abstract. Eighty-three full-text papers were reviewed, and 37 papers were excluded, resulting in 46 included papers representing 36 instruments. These instruments demonstrated a wide range in purpose and content as well as in the quality of psychometric properties.ConclusionsThis systematic review provides an overview of existing instruments measuring women’s childbirth experiences and can support researchers to identify appropriate instruments to be used, and maybe adapted, in their specific contexts and research purpose.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12884-017-1356-y) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Aim and objectives This study was conducted to determine the effect of showing images of the foetus to the pregnant women with the virtual reality glass during labour process on labour pain, childbirth perception and anxiety level. Background Virtual reality is an effective and inexpensive method that allows the creation of simulated scenarios in which it interacts with the virtual environment with multisensory stimuli. Design This is a randomised controlled experimental study. This study was conducted with the guidelines of Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT). The study was enrolled in the Clinical Trials database (NCT04664114). Methods The study included 100 pregnant women (50 intervention group and 50 control group). Ultrasound images of the foetus were recorded on the 28th week of pregnancy of the women in the intervention group. These images were shown to the women with the virtual reality glass during labour process. Routine procedures were carried out for the women in the control group. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was applied to both groups when cervical dilatation was 4 cm and 9 cm. The Women's Perception for the Scale of Supportive Care Given During Labor (POBS) and the Perinatal Anxiety Screening Scale (PASS) were applied almost two hours after labour. Results The VAS scores of the women in the intervention group with 9 cm dilatation and their PASS mean scores were significantly lower than women in the control group while their POBS score were significantly higher (p < 0.01). Conclusion The results of this study show that showing images of the foetus to women with virtual reality decreased labour pain and anxiety level. Relevance to clinical practice It is known that supportive care given during labour is important both for the mother's and baby's health. Therefore, it is important that nurses and midwives, who spend the most time with women and provide the most support, reduce the pain and anxiety of the woman with nonpharmacological practices and make them feel positive feelings about delivery.

“…A series of descriptive and factor analyses led to removing 24 items because of low Spearman's rho with the rest of the item pool, low R 2 , high residual correlations, or inappropriate content. The remaining 57 items formed three unidimensional measures (0 existing items as-is, 34 significantly modified existing items, [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43] and 9 de novo items). Results of a bi-factor analysis support the sufficient unidimensionality of the "Humanity" measure, in which the general factor was defined as "humanity" and four local factors (or subdomains) were as follows: safety and accountability, autonomy, communication and information exchange, and empathy.…”

Background Perinatal quality improvement lacks valid tools to measure adverse hospital experiences disproportionately impacting Black mothers and birthing people. Measuring and mitigating harm requires using a framework that centers the lived experiences of Black birthing people in evaluating inequitable care, namely, obstetric racism. We sought to develop a valid patient‐reported experience measure (PREM) of Obstetric Racism© in hospital‐based intrapartum care designed for, by, and with Black women as patient, community, and content experts. Methods PROMIS© instrument development standards adapted with cultural rigor methodology. Phase 1 included item pool generation, modified Delphi method, and cognitive interviews. Phase 2 evaluated the item pool using factor analysis and item response theory. Results Items were identified or written to cover 7 previously identified theoretical domains. 806 Black mothers and birthing people completed the pilot test. Factor analysis concluded a 3 factor structure with good fit indices (CFI = 0.931‐0.977, RMSEA = 0.087‐0.10, R2 > .3, residual correlation < 0.15). All items in each factor fit the IRT model and were able to be calibrated. Factor 1, “Humanity,” had 31 items measuring experiences of safety and accountability, autonomy, communication, and empathy. A 12‐item short form was created to ease respondent burden. Factor 2, “Racism,” had 12 items measuring experiences of neglect and mistreatment. Factor 3, “Kinship,” had 7 items measuring hospital denial and disruption of relationships between Black mothers and their child or support system. Conclusions The PREM‐OB Scale™ suite is a valid tool to characterize and quantify obstetric racism for use in perinatal improvement initiatives.
