Effect of Using Virtual Glasses on Anxiety, Pain and Comfort During Uterine Tonus Assessment

Data collection tools will be collected from women who gave birth in the Maternity Ward of Malatya Education and Research Hospital between February 2024 and February 2025 and who agreed to participate in the study, using the face-to-face interview method on weekdays by the researchers. Data will be collected in two stages. The application time of the data collection tools is planned to be completed in approximately 20 minutes as pre-test and post-test. Before the women in the experimental group are applied with SG glasses, the Personal Information Form, State Anxiety Scale (SAS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and General Comfort Scale (GCS) will be applied and pre-test data will be collected. Then, these women will watch videos with nature scenes using SG glasses during the uterine tone assessment. After the uterine tone assessment process is completed, the pregnant women in the experimental group will be applied the State Anxiety Scale (SAS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and General Comfort Scale (GCS) again and the post-test data will be collected and the data collection process will be completed. Before the uterine tone assessment, the State Anxiety Scale (SAS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and General Comfort Scale (GCS) will be applied to the women in the control group and pre-test data will be collected. No intervention will be applied to these women during the uterine tone assessment process. After the uterine tone assessment process is completed, the State Anxiety Scale (SAS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and General Comfort Scale (GCS) will be applied to the pregnant women in the control group again and post-test data will be collected, and the data collection process will be completed. The pre-natal hemoglobin value and the 6th hour post-natal hemoglobin value of all women in the experimental and control groups will be recorded as part of the hospital's routine procedure.
