Brief Summary

Multimedia birth prediction intervention helps mothers and their spouses reduce the number of trips to the hospital, reduce anxiety, and increase self-confidence. A total of 83 couples were accepted for cases, with a 10% attrition rate. so, A total of 95 couples were admitted and divided into the experimental group and the intervention measures were implemented Experimental group. Fill out basic demographic and obstetric variables, self-confidence visual analog scale, situational-trait anxiety scale-situational anxiety part at 37 weeks of pregnancy, at the first visit to the hospital, and one hour after admission to the hospital for delivery

Detailed Description

More than 90% of pregnant women are prone to anxiety and fear due to unexpected and uncontrollable birth signs before delivery and because they cannot control their own condition.

Pregnant women who receive prenatal education can reduce their fear, depression, anxiety and stress about childbirth, increase their self-confidence during childbirth, and thus gain a positive childbirth experience. As a quasi-experimental study, cases were accepted using a random method. The number of cases admitted was 83 couples, with a 10% attrition rate. Therefore, a total of 95 couples were admitted and divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group received intervention measures, and the control group received intervention measures.

At 37 weeks of pregnancy, at the first visit to the hospital for examination, and one hour after admission, basic demographic and obstetric variables, self-confidence visual analogy scale, and situational-trait anxiety scale-situational anxiety were filled in, and statistical analysis was performed. The methods were descriptive statistics, independent t test, chi-square test, analysis of variance, generalized estimating equations, and linear regression between the experimental and control groups.
