Abstract:
A Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of knowledge, attitude, practice and barriers to implementation of
non-pharmacological pain management during labor using non-experimental cross sectional descriptive study design and used a
structure questionnaire to collect data from a sample of the population. The majority of the health care providers’ have
inadequate knowledge regarding non-pharmacological pain management during labor. Health care providers have a positive
attitude towards non-pharmacological pain management during labor. Most of the health care providers practice massaging,
breathing exercise and encourage different laboring positions during labor. The main barriers were lack of time, lack of
knowledge and patient unwillingness.
