Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Mental simulations can motivate patients for their first verticalization after cesarean section, although perceived anxiety before verticalization may reduce a positive effect of mental simulations.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

process simulation group

an experimental group with process simulation with elements of relaxation

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

mental simulation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Audio recordings with a mental simulation. The women listened to the text using headphones about 10-15 min before verticalization (5 h after arrival in the postoperative room, about 6 h after anesthesia). In each group, the mental training lasted for about 10 min.

outcome simulation group

an experimental group with outcome simulation with elements of relaxation

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

mental simulation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Audio recordings with a mental simulation. The women listened to the text using headphones about 10-15 min before verticalization (5 h after arrival in the postoperative room, about 6 h after anesthesia). In each group, the mental training lasted for about 10 min.

control group

a control group with no process and outcome simulations, but with elements of relaxation

Group Type OTHER

mental simulation

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Audio recordings with a mental simulation. The women listened to the text using headphones about 10-15 min before verticalization (5 h after arrival in the postoperative room, about 6 h after anesthesia). In each group, the mental training lasted for about 10 min.
