Abstract
  • Background: Epidural and pain management options discussed during the prenatal stage empowers women to make an informed decision during the labor phase. Providing tools that women can refer to during pregnancy encourages shared decision making. Methodology: The purpose of the Doctoral Nursing Practice project was to provide education and increase knowledge regarding epidurals and pain management options to childbearing or pregnant women. In childbearing and pregnant women over the age of 18, does prenatal education on epidurals and intravenous pain management options increase knowledge to make an informed decision regarding pain control during labor? Findings: The educational project was implemented at Women’s Health Advantage in Bluffton, Indiana. A pretest, educational brochure, and posttest was used throughout the implementation process. The average pretest score was 46% and the posttests average score was 73%. The percent of change between the pretest and posttest showed an increase of 36%. Implications: Childbearing and pregnant women lack knowledge regarding epidurals and pain management options. Women of childbearing age need to understand what their options are for delivery to make an informed decision. Future recommendations involve providing educational brochures on the obstetric units to allow time for the pregnant women to decide the type of pain management desired. Involvement from childbearing and pregnant women encourages shared decision making.
