What this Trial Is About

Researchers are investigating the quality of recovery after childbirth, focusing on both physical and psychological factors. They aim to validate the Chinese and Malay versions of the ObsQoR-10 questionnaire, which measures recovery aspects such as pain, comfort, control, ability to care for the baby, mobility, and hygiene. This study will identify modifiable risk factors linked to poorer recovery scores to better understand postpartum recovery and help manage expectations and develop future interventions. The study will begin with a pre-test of the translated questionnaires in a small group of patients, followed by recruitment of 112 women on the first postpartum day to complete the ObsQoR-10 and other related questionnaires assessing mood, anxiety, and pain. The participants will have delivered either by spontaneous vaginal delivery or elective cesarean section and will be assessed shortly after delivery. Participants will be involved mainly on postpartum day 1, completing the questionnaires initially and again after 60 minutes to measure changes in recovery scores. Additional correlations with health status, pain, breastfeeding confidence, depressive symptoms, and length of hospital stay will be evaluated. The study focuses on female participants aged 21 to 50 years and will continue through the postpartum period, aiming to provide comprehensive data on recovery quality after childbirth.
