ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a special program designed to help women who are facing anxiety before and after having a Cesarean delivery due to high-risk pregnancies. The program uses a technique called cognitive-behavioral therapy, which helps people understand and manage their feelings. Participants will take part in a single session where they will learn about the steps involved in a Cesarean delivery in a setting that looks like an actual operating room. This approach aims to reduce anxiety and improve satisfaction with the delivery experience.

To be eligible for this study, participants must be women planning to have a Cesarean delivery because of complications with their pregnancy, such as issues with the baby's health. Unfortunately, if someone plans to deliver at a different hospital, they won't be able to join the trial. During the study, participants will receive support and follow-up care to see how they feel immediately after and in the weeks following the delivery. This trial is currently looking for women aged between 18 and 45 who meet these criteria.
