NCT ID NCT07368387
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether giving women a QR code with educational videos and tips before a planned cesarean birth can lower their anxiety, reduce pain after surgery, and improve comfort. About 88 pregnant women will be split into two groups: one gets the QR code education, the other gets standard hospital care. Researchers will measure anxiety before the procedure and pain and comfort afterward using simple questionnaires.
