Effect of a Confidence-Building and Diaphragmatic Breathing-Assisted Graded Exposure on Kinesiophobia and Anxiety During First Mobilization Among Women After Cesarean Section
This quasi-experimental study will evaluate whether a program combining confidence building, diaphragmatic breathing (slow, deep belly breathing), and gradual exposure to movement can reduce fear of movement and anxiety during first mobilization after cesarean section.
The study will include two groups without random assignment. The intervention group will receive the combined program in addition to routine hospital care. The control group will receive routine hospital care only. Fear of movement and anxiety will be assessed before and after the intervention period in both groups. Changes will be compared between the groups to evaluate the effects of the program.

설명
Inclusion Criteria:Women aged 18 years or older who have undergone cesarean section.
2. Women who are medically stable and approved by the responsible healthcare team for first mobilization.
3. Women who have not yet started their first out-of-bed mobilization at the time of baseline assessment.
4. Women who are able to understand the intervention instructions, communicate with the researcher, and complete the study assessment tools.
5. Women who are willing to participate and provide written informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria : Medical instability or a clinical contraindication to first mobilization.
7. Severe postoperative complications that prevent safe mobilization. 8. Neurological or musculoskeletal disorders that substantially impair the ability to stand or walk safely.
9. Cognitive or communication difficulties that prevent understanding the intervention or valid completion of the study assessment tools.
10. A severe psychiatric condition that substantially interferes with informed consent, participation in the intervention, or valid completion of the study assessments, as determined according to the approved study protocol.

실험적: Confidence-Building and Breathing-Assisted Graded Exposure Group
|
The researcher will deliver the program in addition to routine hospital care after the clinical team confirms that the woman is medically stable and cleared for first mobilization after cesarean section. Confidence building will include supportive discussion (approximately 5 minutes) to identify concerns, explain the movement sequence, and provide realistic reassurance and encouragement. Guided mental rehearsal (approximately 10 minutes) will help the woman mentally prepare for sitting, standing, and walking. This will be followed by 3 minutes of slow, comfortable diaphragmatic breathing without straining the surgical area. Graded exposure-assisted mobilization will progress through five levels: in-bed position adjustment, upright sitting, sitting at the bedside, supported standing, and short assisted walking. Each level will be attempted according to clinical stability and tolerance, with positive feedback after successful completion. |

Change in Kinesiophobia Measured by the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK-17)
기간: Baseline before the intervention and first mobilization, and immediately after completion of first mobilization; the same assessment timing will apply to both groups.
|
kinesiophobia will be assessed in both groups using the 17-item Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK-17). Total scores range from 17 to 68, with higher scores indicating greater fear of movement. Changes from baseline to the post-intervention assessment will be compared between the intervention and control groups. |

|
Anxiety will be assessed in both groups using a 100-mm Visual Analogue Scale for Anxiety (VAS-A), ranging from 0 (no anxiety) to 100 (worst imaginable anxiety). Higher scores indicate greater anxiety. Changes from baseline to the post-intervention assessment will be compared between the intervention and control groups. |
