Study Description

Hypotheses 01; there was no difference between the Surgical Fear and Anxiety score of the Virtual Reality Glasses group and the control group.

The study will be carried out in two different groups. The practice will start with meeting the women whom will go to cesarean section in the hospital. After the women are evaluated in terms of eligibility criteria for the research, the women who are eligible will be informed about the research and written informed consent will be obtained from the women who accept. The random distribution of women to the study groups will be carried out using the Block Randomization method. The following applications will be made to the groups.

Virtual Reality Glasses Group; the intervention will be given glasses before the surgery and will be shown a video (30 minutes) of the 9-month fetal development process. Among the women who were admitted for a planned caesarean section, those who met the criteria would first be given the Informed Consent Form and a data collection form including sociodemographic characteristics, surgical fear scale, Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Scale, and then randomization would be applied.

control group; the first surgical fear scale, anxiety scores will be recorded. After cesarean section anxiety scores will be recorded.
