Abstract

Objectives: The evaluation of cold plasma irradiation results for postpartum women at the National Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital in 2024. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 238 mothers who had normal deliveries at the National Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology from January 1, 2024, to April 30, 2024. Cold plasma irradiation was applied within the first 24 hours postpartum. The condition of the mothers was monitored before and after the irradiation. Results: Cold plasma irradiation significantly changed the condition of the perineum before and after irradiation. The rate of perineal tearing decreased from 16% to 4.6%; the rate of pain at the suture site decreased from 40.5% to 5.1%. The rate of bruising and swelling after childbirth also decreased after cold plasma irradiation, from 2.5% to 0.8% and from 3.4% to 1.7%, respectively. Most women were very satisfied with the cold plasma perineal irradiation service at the obstetrics department: equipment (86.1%); service attitude (87.4%); and technique (89.1%). Conclusion: Cold plasma irradiation significantly changes the statistical condition of the perineum, pain condition, and the ability of perineal regeneration before and after cold plasma irradiation treatment. The majority of patients are very satisfied with the cold plasma irradiation service at the hospital.
