NCT ID NCT07702058
First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a one-hour mindfulness-based education program given to new mothers within 24 hours of delivery can improve how they perceive their maternal role and reduce anxiety. Half of the 84 participants receive the mindfulness program plus standard discharge care, while the other half receives only standard care. Researchers measure changes in maternal role perception and anxiety levels at one week and one month after birth.
