abstract = {Childbirth is a biological process and how it is experienced and managed is influenced by
numerous factors, among them, socio-cultural or health care received. Objective: The objective of this
study is to ascertain whether cultural factors influence the way in which women deal with childbirth
through the treatment of pain, companionship and maternal satisfaction. Methods: This study is
a non-experimental, quantitative, ex post facto, cross-sectional study of women who gave birth in
a border town in southern Spain. The sample consisted of 249 women. Results: No relationship
was found between cultural factors and the choice of epidural analgesia, alternative methods to
alleviate pain, being accompanied nor maternal satisfaction. There was a significant relationship
between the type of companionship and with maternal satisfaction. Conclusions: Cultural factors
did not influence how women dealt with dilation and childbirth. Results found that the person
accompanying the mother was important for increasing maternal satisfaction. The intercultural
training of healthcare professionals is necessary.},
