- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)-Questionnaire immediately before repair episiotomy State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)-Questionnaire \[ Time Frame: up to one hour \] STAI was used to measure the anxiety level of pregnant women. It was developed by Spielberger et al. (Spielberger et al., 1970) and Öner and Le Compte conducted a Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale (Öner \& LeCompte, 1983). In the scale, individuals are provided to express their feelings with 40 expressions. With the state anxiety scale, it is possible to determine how the individual feels at the moment and in the conditions, and with the trait anxiety scale, how he feels outside of the current situation and conditions. The scale is a 4-point Likert type.The last score obtained shows the anxiety level of the individual. High scores from the scale indicate an increased level of anxiety, low scores indicate a decrease.
Socio-Demographic Data Collection Form in active phase on labor (4 cm vaginal dilatation) Pregnant Introductory Information Form is a questionnaire prepared by researchers using the literature.
Visual Analog Scale-Pain (VAS-P) immediately before repair episiotomy The VAS-P, which is used to evaluate the severity of pain, is a 10 cm long horizontally or vertically drawn ruler, starting with "No pain (0)" and ending with "Unbearable pain (10)". The woman is asked to show the point on this line that corresponds to the intensity of pain she feels. The distance between the marked point and the starting end of the line (0=no pain) is measured in centimeters and the numerical value found shows the severity of the patient's pain (Hayes and Patterson 1921). VAS-P is accepted as a safe, valid and usable measurement tool in repeated measurements. In this study, horizontally prepared VAS-P was used to assess pain intensity.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Satisfaction Evaluation Scale and Form immediately after episiotomy repair "Visual Analog Scale (VAS)" has been adapted to similar usage principles. The VAS is a scale that is evaluated by individuals on a horizontal or vertical line of 10 cm or 100 mm, with one end indicating that the individual is "very good" and the other end is "very bad".

Birth Action Follow-up Form 60 minutes after birth This form includes the week of pregnancy, the height and weight of the pregnant woman, hemoglobin values, induction status, how long the birth stages last, the time of opening the episiotomy, the time of starting the repair, the ending time of the repair, the length of the episiotomy, the baby's Apgar score, the baby's weight.
