Objective To analyze the improvement effect and application value of unprotected perineal delivery on perineal incision rate in delivery room nursing practice. Methods A total of 68 postpartum women who gave birth normally in our hospital between January 2023 and January 2024 were randomly divided into a control group (intervention with traditional delivery methods) and an observation group (intervention with unprotected perineal delivery methods), with 34 cases in each group. The application effects of the two groups were compared. Results The duration of the first, second, and third stages of labor in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group. The rates of perineal lateral incision, perineal incision, and total incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The application of unprotected perineal delivery in delivery room nursing practice has a good effect, which can significantly shorten the duration of labor, reduce the occurrence of perineal lateral incision and perineal incision, avoid postpartum hemorrhage and neonatal asphyxia, and has high clinical application value.
