Detailed Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to To learn The Effect Of Pre-Natal Breastfeeding Education Prepared Wıth Virtual Reality Technology On The Breastfeeding Self-Efficiency And Breastfeeding Success Of Primiparous Mothers in The study will be delivered to 60 healthy primiparous pregnant women.The breastfeeding software developed with the primary study was transferred to virtual reality glasses. It will also be implemented in this study. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Prenatal breastfeeding education prepared with virtual reality technology positively affects the breastfeeding self-efficacy of primiparous mothers.
  • Prenatal breastfeeding education prepared with virtual reality technology positively affects the breastfeeding of primiparous mothers.

Participants will Pregnant women in the intervention group will be given breastfeeding training prepared with virtual reality technology and will fill out questionnaires and scales will be filled in on the first and seventh days after birth. Questionnaires will be filled in by pregnant women in the control group, and the scales will be filled out only on the first and seventh days.

Researchers will compare breastfeeding education given with virtual reality glasses with the control group to see whether it has an effect on breastfeeding success and breastfeeding self-efficacy.

breastfeeding success
Time Frame: 4-5 week
LACTH BREASTFEEDING ASSESSMENT SCALE This measurement tool consists of five evaluation criteria and is a combination of the first letters of the English equivalents of these criteria. Each item is evaluated between 0 and 2 points. The total score that can be obtained from the measurement tool is 10. The measurement tool has no cutoff point. It is understood that the higher the LATCH score, the higher the breastfeeding success.
4-5 week
