Summary
This study looked at whether watching a virtual reality video or coloring a mandala pattern could help pregnant women feel less anxious during a Non-Stress Test (NST), a common check on baby's health. 108 pregnant women took part, and researchers measured their anxiety, satisfaction, and test results. The goal was to find simple, drug-free ways to make the test more comfortable and improve outcomes.
