There are a variety of good birthing positions that a patient can adopt when it is time to push, and it does not always have to be the supine position. Objective: To describe the existing scientific information about the benefits and complications of free position delivery compared to lithotomy position delivery. Methodology: The study opted for a literary, documentary, descriptive, and retrospective review; it was acquired through scientific databases such as Pubmed, Science Direct, Scielo, and Elsevier, resulting in a final sample of fourteen bibliographic studies published between 2019 and 2025. Discussion: Most studies determined that free position during childbirth offers more benefits than lithotomy, reducing the duration of the process, cesarean section and bleeding rates, and providing a more controlled experience. Professionals should offer mothers the opportunity to move freely. Lithotomy, although used for the convenience of staff, carries more complications. The choice of position should be based on maternal-fetal well-being. Conclusion: The Free positioning during labor provides more benefits than the lithotomy position. This practice ensures a reduction in the duration of both stages of labor, leading to a shorter labor process, decreased bleeding, and lower rates of episiotomies and medical interventions, along with a faster uterine involution in the postpartum period. At the same time, it offers a more controlled experience, which contributes to a reduced perception of pain and, in many cases, eliminates the need for analgesia. In contrast, complications associated with the lithotomy position have been reported, including lower back pain, cases of hemorrhage, and a higher incidence of perineal tears. |
