Abstract

Perineal wounds due to spontaneous tears or episiotomy are common conditions experienced by postpartum mothers and have the potential to cause complications if not properly cared for. Low knowledge and compliance of postpartum mothers in performing perineal wound care remains a problem in primary health care. This study aims to analyze the effect of perineal wound care education on the level of knowledge and compliance of postpartum mothers at the Laiwui Community Health Center, South Halmahera. The study used a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest approach. The study sample consisted of 40 postpartum mothers with perineal wounds and were selected using a total sampling technique. The intervention in the form of perineal wound care education was provided in a structured manner through counseling, leaflets, and live demonstrations. The level of knowledge and compliance was measured before and after the intervention using a standardized questionnaire. Data analysis was performed univariately and bivariately using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results showed an increase in the level of knowledge and compliance of postpartum mothers after being provided with education. The Wilcoxon test showed a significant difference between knowledge levels before and after education (p < 0.05), as well as a significant difference in postpartum maternal compliance (p < 0.05). It can be concluded that perineal wound care education has a significant effect on increasing postpartum maternal knowledge and compliance. Structured and applicable education is recommended to be integrated as part of the standard postpartum care in primary health care to support maternal recovery and prevent postpartum complications.

Abstract

Cesarean section is a widely used surgical delivery procedure, with increasing prevalence globally and nationally, often accompanied by postoperative wound pain. Unmanaged pain can delay recovery, hinder early mobilization, and lower the quality of postpartum care. Various clinical and obstetric factors influence pain intensity after cesarean section, one of which is parity. However, scientific evidence regarding the relationship between parity and cesarean section wound pain, particularly in regional hospitals in Indonesia, remains limited. This study aimed to explore the relationship between parity and the intensity of cesarean section wound pain in post-cesarean section mothers at Datoe Binangkang Regional General Hospital in Bolaang Mongondow Regency. Using an observational analytical design with a cross-sectional approach, the study involved 50 post-cesarean mothers selected through total sampling. Parity was categorized into primipara, multipara, and grandemultipara, and the intensity of surgical wound pain was measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), classified into mild, moderate, and severe pain. Data analysis was conducted univariately and bivariately using Spearman’s rank correlation test. The results revealed a statistically significant relationship between parity and postoperative pain intensity, with a weak positive correlation. The study concluded that parity influences pain intensity, though not as a dominant factor. These findings highlight the importance of considering parity in planning individualized and evidence-based pain management for cesarean section patients.
