Although labor pain has benefits like advancing labor process it can cause serious problems such as protracted delivery, unnatural fetal heart rate pattern, high-risk cesarean and low Apgar score. So alleviating labor pain by playing the sound of Quran can be an important subject in medicine. Labor pain is one of the severe pains that most mothers face in their lifetime. Nowadays different methods are used to alleviate this pain. The present study was carried out with the aim of evaluating the auditory effect of the sound of Quran e Karim on the labor pain of primiparas. In this clinical trial 90 primiparas referring to the delivery ward of Shiraz’s Zeinabieh Hospital were placed in 3 groups randomly. The first and second group listened to Quran and Tavashih for 20 minutes but the third group did not listen to the sounds. Labor pain intensity, blood pressure and fetal heart rate before and after the intervention were recorded using McGill-Melzack scale and observation reports. The difference between the three groups was not significant in regards with age, education and cervical dilation rate (P > 0.05). Labor pain intensity in the first group was not significantly different before and after the intervention (P >0.05) but it increased in Tavashih and the control group (P < 0.001). Mean average pain intensity in the three groups differed significantly (P < 0.001). This variable decreased significantly in Quran group compared to the other two groups (P < 0.001). Mean fetal blood pressure and heart rate did not differ significantly in the three group (P > 0.05). The findings of the study at hand indicate the auditory effect of the pleasant sound of Quran e Karim as one of the supplementary methods in alleviating the labor pain of primiparas. Therefore considering faith issues and utilizing spiritual factors in order to alleviate or help tolerate labor pain is recommended.
