Psychological reaction due to failure using the Lamaze method.
From 1972-1982 we selected 50 patients who had a normal delivery without the use of anesthesia (group A) and 50 patients who had abnormal deliveries (group B). Both groups were following the Lamaze method. All patients answered a questionnaire to detect depressive syndrome. In group A, 5 patients (10%), and in group B, 40 patients (80%) had depressive syndrome. The Chi square, P and Z were statistically significant. It is imperative to prepare our patients who are training for the Lamaze method for the possibility of an abnormal birth.
