PENGUKURAN KAPASITAS VITAL PARU IBU HAMIL TRIMESTER TIGA UNTUK MENENTUKAN POSISI PERSALINAN YANG EFEKTIF
Abstract: Respiratory system
is one of physiological processes that is changed for adaptation in preg-nant
women and influence power factor on birth process. One of methods to assess
respiratory system (ventilation mechanism) is measuring vital capacity. Main
factors that affect vital capacity are body’s anatomical shape, position for
the measurement of vital capacity, respiratory muscle strength and lung compliance.The
aim of this study was to determine the effect of maternal strain position on
lung vital capacity. This type of research was cross-sectional with
quantitative approach. Respondents of this research were 41 pregnant women
which were selected by consecutive sampling. Instruments of this research were
spirometer Vise Medical Spirolite 220
and NescoAll New Multi Check. Analysis data using Anova test.Results of
this study concluded that body position was factor that influence lung vital capacity
and lung vital capacity with semi fowler position was higher than that in
dorsal recumbent position, which was position that is used by all pregnant
women when deliver their baby.This research conclude that semi fowler position
was more effective than dorsal recumbent position during partus.
