370: Distraction for pain management during labor induction: A randomized clinical trial.

Non-pharmacologic intervention using music or video games has been applied for pain management in pediatrics, palliative care, physical therapy, and surgery. Previous studies pertaining to music in labor are limited. Our objective was to assess whether distraction using music and/or video games improves pain outcomes and assists in analgesia management in women undergoing labor induction.
