Abstract

Empowering women for labour mobility is acknowledged as a component of good midwifery care, yet challenges persist in hospital settings. While the benefits of antenatal education are recognised as supporting labour mobility, specific details and correlations with outcomes remain deficient. A comprehensive synthesis of interventions empowering women for labour mobility is lacking. This study aims to map strategies in antenatal education for labour mobility, utilising JBI methodology. The review will centre on antenatal education, highlighting crucial information for strategies to enhance women's decision-making and childbirth self-efficacy, fostering labour mobility and upright positions during labour.
