Shafa Hospital’s maternity ward cares about mothers and children and uses modern equipment and the latest medical developments with experienced doctors and staff to provide the best medical services to pregnant mothers. An important feature of this ward is its proximity to the NICU.
The ward’s medical activities and facilities include:
- Physiological birth (with non-pharmacological pain relief by aromatherapy, massage therapy, heat therapy, cryotherapy, birthing balls, and painless delivery with Entonox gas)
- Maternity ward with trolleys for neonatal resuscitation
- Accompanying midwife
- Free natural childbirth consultation
- Free training class for pregnant mothers
- Promoting natural childbirth on social media
- KMC (Kangaroo Mother Care)
- Painless childbirth with Entonox gas
- Despite doctors’ recommendation of natural childbirth, unfortunately, Iran’s cesarean birth rate is very high.
- A primary reason why pregnant women prefer cesarean delivery to natural childbirth is the fear of labor pain.
- Entonox gas reduces labor pain during natural childbirth and is a very easy and safe method with no known side effects for mother and fetus.
