Trial Outcomes & Findings for Vaginal Breech Birth Management Educational Mobile Game (NCT NCT05551611)

NCT ID: NCT05551611

Last Updated: 2025-07-15

Results Overview

The Vaginal Breech Birth Management Knowledge Test (VBBM-KT) is a 47-item multiple-choice assessment developed to evaluate midwifery students' knowledge of vaginal breech birth trauma and management. * Each correct answer scores 1 point, resulting in a total score range from 0 to 47 points. * There are no subscales; only a total score is calculated. * Higher scores represent better knowledge and indicate a more successful learning outcome. The test was administered to both groups at four time points: pre-intervention (pretest), immediately post-intervention (Day 0), two weeks later (Day 14), and seven months later.

Measure
Play Group
The participants were informed about the research and the mean score was calculated by applying the VBBM Knowledge Test to the participants before the vaginal delivery management training of the breech-presented fetus was given within the scope of the Risky Delivery and Postpartum Period Course. After playing the mobile game, VBBM Post-Knowledge Test and General Satisfaction Level Test were applied to the participants again. In addition, the Mobile Game Evaluation Form was applied to the participants in the game group and their opinions on the mobile educational game were determined. Test-retest reliability was calculated by applying the Vaginal Breech Delivery Management Knowledge Retention Test 14 days later.
Control Group
The participants were informed about the research and the mean score was calculated by applying the Vaginal Breech Delivery Management Knowledge Test to the participants before the vaginal delivery management training of the breech-presented fetus was given within the scope of the Risky Delivery and Postpartum Period Course. On the same date as the playgroup, but at a different time and in a class, the researcher gave a theoretical lesson through the presentation prepared in the powerpoint program about the birth management of a breech-presented fetus in the classroom as in the traditional education method. After the lesson, the Vaginal Breech Birth Management Post-Knowledge Test and the General Satisfaction Level Test were administered to the participants again. Test-retest reliability was calculated by applying the Vaginal Breech Delivery Management Knowledge Retention Test 14 days later.
