Registration Number
NCT06832332
Lead Sponsor
Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University
Brief Summary

Simulation training provided before clinical practice at many universities helps students feel confident and well prepared for the clinical environment. Simulation-based learning not only improves professional competence in midwifery educators but also equips and empowers midwifery students in practice. In undergraduate midwifery education, students are provided obstetric skills training on electronic fetal monitoring (EFM), delivery management, shoulder dystocia, postpartum hemorrhage, breech delivery, umbilical cord prolapse and perineal repair (incision and episiotomy). It has been determined that simulation-based training positively affects the perceived readiness of the participants. It is emphasized that health personnel should be encouraged to freely choose birth positions and be informed about the risks and benefits of upright and supine positions. This study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of midwifery students' use of alternative birth positions in the second stage of labor on students' anxiety, self-efficacy, skill and knowledge levels.
