Objectives

Narrative objectives1

It is common for cesarean section to be performed while awake under regional anesthesia, and many pregnant women complain of discomfort, anxiety, and fear of abdominal manipulation. It has been reported that the use of music and other means to remove these anxieties and fears and, as a result, the autonomic nervous system of the pregnant woman becomes parasympathetic, thereby reducing circulatory fluctuations before and after anesthesia.
Aromatherapy has long been used in obstetrics and has been reported to be effective in relieving pain and anxiety in pregnant women during transvaginal delivery.
In this study, we investigate how aromatherapy with Parmarosa essential oil during cesarean section affects the autonomic nervous system of pregnant women. This is an exploratory study to examine whether there is a difference in autonomic nervous system activity between the essential oil aspiration group and the placebo aspiration group using heart rate variability analysis.
