NCT ID NCT07338747
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether watching an educational video can lower anxiety in pregnant women who are deciding whether to attempt a vaginal birth after a previous C-section. About 90 women will be randomly assigned to either watch the video or receive standard verbal advice from their doctor. The main goal is to see if the video helps them feel less anxious and more informed.
