THE EFFECT OF 360° VIDEO-ASSISTED TRAINING ON VERTICAL BIRTH POSITIONS IN PRIMIPAROUS WOMEN ON FEAR OF CHILDBIRTH, SELF-EFFICACY IN CHILDBIRTH, SATISFACTION WITH CHILDBIRTH, AND PERINEAL TRAUMA: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL
10 september 2026 bijgewerkt door: Rozerin BALCI, Bitlis Eren University
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of 360-degree video-supported upright birth position education on fear of childbirth, childbirth self-efficacy, birth satisfaction, and perineal trauma among primiparous pregnant women. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to one of three intervention groups or a control group. In addition to routine antenatal care, participants in the intervention groups will receive 360-degree video-supported education on one of three upright birth positions: use of a Pilates ball, birth dance, or squatting. Participants in the control group will receive routine antenatal care only.
The study will examine whether 360-degree video-supported education can help primiparous women prepare for childbirth, reduce fear of childbirth, improve childbirth self-efficacy and birth satisfaction, and reduce the occurrence of perineal trauma. The outcomes of the three intervention groups will also be explored to determine whether the effects differ according to the type of upright birth position.
