A prospective cohort study was conducted with 64 women who had vaginal deliveries at Adana City Training and Research Hospital between October 2023 and May 2024. Women who received intrauterine interventions during the third stage of labor formed the case group (n=32), and those who did not formed the control group (n=32). Data were collected using the Pregnant Information Form, Labor Observation Form, Early Postpartum Period Follow-up Form, Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and Traumatic Birth Perception Scale (TBPS). Findings were determined through regular monitoring and follow-ups during the first 24 hours postpartum.

| Case | In the study, women who underwent intrauterine interventions during the third stage of labor for placental removal were included in the case group (n=32), while those who did not undergo such interventions were placed in the control group (n=32). Manual placental removal (hallas) and the cleaning of the uterine cavity using the hand or gauze/sponge (wrapped around the hand or using an over-clamp) after placental expulsion were considered intrauterine interventions |

| Women's pain levels | The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used to assess pain levels in this study. The VAS is a continuous scale ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 represents "no pain" and 10 represents "worst possible pain." Higher scores on the VAS indicate a worse outcome, as they reflect greater levels of reported pain. | VAS scores were recorded at 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 12 hours, and 24 hours postpartum |
| Traumatic Birth Perception | The Traumatic Birth Perception Scale (TBPS) was developed to measure the perception of traumatic birth in women and consists of 13 items within a single subdimension. There are no reverse-scored items in the scale, and each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 10. The lowest possible score is 0, and the highest possible score is 130. The total score reflects the level of traumatic birth perception, with higher scores indicating a higher perception of trauma related to the birth experience. | At 24 hours postpartum |
| Early postpartum health characteristics | 10th minute, 15th minute, 20th minute, 30th minute, 45th minute, 60th minute, 90th minute, 2nd hour, 3rd hour, 4th hour, 5th hour, 6th hour, 12th hour, 18th hour and 24th hour |
