ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying how certain non-drug methods can help reduce pain and anxiety, improve breastfeeding, and encourage movement in women who have just had a cesarean section (C-section). Researchers will investigate the effects of using virtual reality glasses, focusing techniques, and gentle touch to see if these approaches make the recovery process easier for new mothers after surgery. Since many women experience significant pain after a C-section, the goal is to find effective ways to help them feel better without relying solely on medicine.
To participate in this study, women must be between the ages of 18 and 35, have had a single baby through a C-section using regional anesthesia (like an epidural), and not have any conditions that affect their ability to communicate or understand the study, such as psychiatric issues or vision problems. Participants will be asked to provide their consent both verbally and in writing. The study is not yet recruiting, but those who join can expect to learn more about their recovery while contributing to important research that may improve care for future mothers.
