Research Activity Title

Physiological plateaus during childbirth: A constructivist grounded theory and novel definition

Research Activity Description

Constructivist grounded theory study

Methodology

This data was collected through individual semi-structured interviews, conducted face-to-face and online (via online video conference or phone) with twenty midwives across Australia. Interviews followed a participant-led approach (i.e., questions of each interview differ). Key topics of interviews include: (1) What patterns of labour and birth midwives perceive as 'normal'/physiological, (2) What midwives think and do when labour slows down/pauses/stops, (3) How midwives conceptualise 'physiological plateaus' during childbirth. A reduced demographics table (multiple variables removed for de-identification) lists participants' geographic location (state only), pseudonym, years' practise experience and work setting at the time of data collection, among other.
