Doğum, kadınların yaşamında eşsiz bir deneyimdir. Doğum deneyimini etkileyen en önemli etkenlerden biri de doğum ortamıdır. Son zamanlarda, özellikle anne ve bebek sağlığını tehdit edebilecek durumlara karşı hazırlıklı olmak adına doğum ortamları birçok teknolojik aletin bir arada bulunduğu medikal ortam hâlini almıştır. Kadınların çoğu, yabancı oldukları bu doğum ortamında korku ve endişe duyarlar. Bu duygular, travay ve doğum eyleminin nörohormonal sürecini kesintiye uğratır ve müdahale olasılığını artırır. Son yıllarda doğumların aşırı tıbbileşmesi eleştirilmekte ve doğumun fizyolojisini koruyacak doğum ortamlarının önemi vurgulanmaktadır. Doğum ortamının tasarımında önemli unsurlar; mahremiyet, suya girebilme imkânı, duş ve tek kişilik tuvalet, aydınlatma, pencereler, gürültü, ses, dekor, mobilya ve ekipman, hareket etmek için yeterli alan, manzara, koku, kişisel eşyalar, gebelerin desteklenmesine izin verme, kadının kültürüne uygun davranışlardır. Kadınlar ise doğum yaptıkları alan için en önemli 3 etkenin şunlar olduğunu belirtmiştir: Temiz bir oda, etrafta rahatça dolaşabilme, diğer insanlar tarafından göz ardı edilmeme ya da göz önünde bulundurulmamaktır. Bunların yanı sıra doğum süresince istedikleri kişilerle aynı odada kalmalarına izin verme, tek kişilik banyo ve tuvalet, odadaki ışık ve ısıyı kontrol edebilme, acil durumda kullanılacak olan ekipmanın yakın olduğunu bilme ancak görmeme, atıştırmalık yiyecek ve içeceklere kolay erişim gibi özelliklerin de doğum alanında olması gereken özellikler olduğunu belirtmişlerdir. Bu unsurların göz önünde bulundurulması, en iyi doğum sonuçlarının elde edilmesine ve kadınların olumlu doğum deneyimi yaşamalarına katkı sağlayacaktır. Bu derlemede, doğum ortamı tasarımı ile ilgili mevcut kanıtları ve uygulamaları incelemek amaçlanmıştır.
