ABSTRAK
Latar Belakang : Relaksasi nafas dalam merupakan metode nonfarmakologis
yang dapat membantu mengurangi nyeri persalinan kala I dengan cara membuat
ibu lebih rileks, mengurangi ketegangan otot, dan menurunkan kecemasan. Teknik
ini dilakukan melalui pernapasan yang teratur dan dalam sehingga meningkatkan
oksigenasi tubuh serta merangsang pelepasan endorfin yang berperan sebagai
pereda nyeri alami. Dengan berfokus pada pola pernapasan, perhatian ibu
terhadap rasa nyeri berkurang sehingga intensitas nyeri yang dirasakan selama
kontraksi dapat menurun dan proses persalinan menjadi lebih nyaman. Tujuan
Penelitian : mengetahui pengaruh relaksasi nafas dalam terhadap nyeri persalinan
kala I. Metode Penelitian : Penelitian ini merupakan jenis penelitian eksperimen
dengan bentuk Pre-Experimental Designs. Desain penelitiannya yaitu One Group
Pretest-Posttest Design. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Maret-April tahun
2026. Populasi studi penelitian ini adalah ibu bersalin di Wilayah Kerja
Puskesmas Seri Tanjung Tahun 2026 dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 30
responden. Analisis data menggunakan Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test. Hasil
Penelitian : nilai median nyeri persalinan kala I sebelum dilakukan relaksasi
nafas dalam sebesar 7,00, dan standar deviasi 0,88. Nilai median nyeri persalinan
kala I sebelum dilakukan relaksasi nafas dalam terendah adalah 5 dan skor
tertinggi adalah 8. Rerata skor nyeri persalinan kala I sesudah dilakukan relaksasi
nafas dalam sebesar 4,63, dan standar deviasi 0,71. Skor nyeri persalinan kala I
sesudah dilakukan relaksasi nafas dalam terendah adalah 3 dan skor tertinggi
adalah 6. Ada pengaruh relaksasi nafas dalam terhadap nyeri persalinan kala I.
Kesimpulan : Ada pengaruh relaksasi nafas dalam terhadap nyeri persalinan kala
I.

ABSTRACT
Background: Deep breathing relaxation is a non-pharmacological method that
can help reduce pain in the first stage of labor by making the mother more
relaxed, reducing muscle tension, and reducing anxiety. This technique is done
through regular and deep breathing so that it increases body oxygenation and
stimulates the release of endorphins which act as natural pain relievers. By
focusing on breathing patterns, the mother's attention to pain is reduced so that the
intensity of pain felt during contractions can decrease and the labor process
becomes more comfortable. Research Objective: to determine the effect of deep
breathing relaxation on pain in the first stage of labor. Research Method: This
research is an experimental research type with a Pre-Experimental Design form.
The research design is One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. This research was
conducted in March-April 2026. The study population of this research was
mothers giving birth in the Seri Tanjung Community Health Center Working Area
in 2026 with a sample of 30 respondents. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon Signed
Ranks Test. Research Results: The average score of pain in the first stage of
labor before deep breathing relaxation was 7.00, and the standard deviation was
0.88. The lowest pain score of the first stage of labor before deep breathing
relaxation was 5 and the highest score was 8. The average pain score of the first
stage of labor after deep breathing relaxation was 5.00, and the standard deviation
was 0.71. The lowest pain score of the first stage of labor before deep breathing
relaxation was 3 and the highest score was 6. There is an effect of deep breathing
relaxation on pain in the first stage of labor. Conclusion: There is an effect of
deep breathing relaxation on pain in the first stage of labor.
