About

The aim of this study is to explore the information provided to mothers about labor induction and its connection to their childbirth experience. In addition, the study examines how the use of social media may influence the birth experience among patients undergoing labor induction.

Full description

Subject undergoing planned induction of labor will be recruited. At recruitment the participants will be asked to answer a questionnaire. Follow-up questionnaires will be sent to the participants one week and three months after the induction.

The first questionnaire assesses how well the participants were informed about the induction. The following questionnaires will assess the childbirth experience and induction experience.

The main aim of the study is to investigate whether being being well informed about the induction of labor is related to better experience of childbirth. Moreover, the correlation between reported social media use and childbirth experience will be evaluated.

After obtaining full data from the first 50 subjects an interim analysis will be performed, to decide the final target sample size.
