Summary

This study tested whether comfort-focused care and virtual reality glasses can help reduce pain and improve comfort for first-time mothers after a cesarean birth. 105 women who gave birth with epidural anesthesia were included. Researchers measured pain and comfort using standard scales. The goal is to find simple, non-drug ways to support recovery after childbirth.
