The birth satisfaction scale: Igbo adaptation, validation, and reliability study.
Article in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAn important indicator of mothers' satisfaction with their care is birth satisfaction. Maternal health care can only be deemed to be of good quality if mothers are satisfied with the care they received. This increases maternal joy. A vital tool for understanding the delivery process from the mother's point of view is the Birth Satisfaction Scale - Revised (BSS-R). Nigeria stands to gain from the modification and implementation of BSS-R in terms of improving care, measuring maternal health, and reducing the high prevalence of adverse obstetric outcomes.
objectiveThe purpose of this study is to convert the Birth Satisfaction Scale - Revised (BSS-R) into the Igbo language and examine its validity and reliability. MATERIALS AND
methodsA study with a cross-sectional design was conducted on 500 women who gave birth at the Alex Ekwueme Federal University Teaching hospital in Abakaliki between March 1 and August 31, 2019. In the postnatal ward, data were gathered using the BSS-R questionnaire. SPSS version 20 was used to analyze the collected data. Through validation and reliability analyses, the scale's characteristics were examined. P-values less than 0.05 indicate a significant level.
resultsThe mean age of the women was 28.8 ± 4.7 years; the majority (230, 46.0%) were between the age group of 30-40 years. Three-fifth of the study participants had formal education. The majority (460, 92.0%) were multipara and had delivered mostly (326, 65.2%) at Full Term. Three Component loading were identified in the Scale. Examination of the pattern matrix showed three components/themes: support by staff during labour (I felt well supported by staff during my labour and birth (r = 0.875); parturient confidence during labour (I felt out of control during my birth experience (r = 0.714) and distraught during labour (I was not distressed at all during labour (r = 0.821). Communality value (r
conclusionThe Igbo version of BSS-R has good internal consistency. It is a valid and a reliable scale to be employed in assessing maternal satisfaction among Igbo speaking women in the study area and Nigeria in general.
