Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study aims to examine whether use of an abdominal binder for postpartum patients after vaginal delivery can effectively manage their pain and reduce the need for pharmacologic analgesics. The investigators hypothesize that use of an abdominal binder will decrease patient pain as reported on a visual analog scale of one to ten, and will decrease quantity of pain medications given. The study will be conducted at the Berry Women's Center at Miami Valley Hospital. Potential eligible participants will be approached regarding the study on admission to labor and delivery. The investigators will recruit 130 participants that will be randomized to two study arms, standard care and standard care plus abdominal binder with 65 participants in each study arm. Data will be collected prospectively while participants are admitted, and through review of electronic medical records. Potential benefits of this study include investigation of a cost-effective method for pain management that could improve patient comfort and reduce need for medications.
