Abstract

Labor pain is an unpleasant sensation due to stimulation of sensory nerves. Pain is always subjective. Objective reactions to pain can include grimacing, tachycardia and hypertension. This reaction is used as a pain parameter, however, this symptom is generally not visible in chronic pain. Apart from that, there is no examination that can be used as a pain test. Therefore, every pain complaint from a sufferer must be accepted as an objective statement. This research is a literature review which aims to determine the differences in anxiety levels of primigravidas and multigravidas in the lead up to childbirth. The literature review source uses electronic media with various journals from 2019–2023 from the Google Scholar data base. These articles were found in 5 journals consisting of national journals. These results showed that there were differences in anxiety levels between primigravidas and multigravidas, including mild, moderate and severe levels of anxiety.
