Read the detailed description
The research was carried out as a single-blind and block randomized control. The research was conducted in a tertiary hospital in Turkey between February, 2019 and February 2020. The universe of the research consisted of women who gave birth by cesarean section. In the power analysis, the sample size was calculated as a minimum of 105 for each group, according to α:0.05 and 1-β= 0.95. Considering the possibility of loss or separation of the selected specimens during the conduct of the study, 240 women who met the inclusion criteria were assigned to the experimental (120) and control (120) groups.Due to the nature of the study, it was conducted as a single-blind randomized controlled trial.
The pre-test procedure was performed when the mothers' statuses were stabilized two hour after the admittance to the maternity service. The post-test procedure was conducted one hour before the discharge. Woman-centered care was provided to the experimental group, and standard care was provided to the control group.The women in the experimental and control groups were not told which group they were in. Each woman in the experimental group was given woman-centered care from the 2nd hour postpartum, and this process continued until the mother was discharged (mothers are discharged after 24 hours). The standard care provided by the hospital covers the basic postpartum care components. These components are the nutrition of the newborn and the protection of maternal and newborn health. A dynamic interaction was established between the women in the experimental group and the researcher in which woman-centered care was applied. Each woman in the experimental group was responsible for explaining herself, her own health behaviors, and her own needs and values.
"Descriptive Information Form", "Postpartum Comfort Scale" and "State-Trait Anxiety Inventory" were used as data collection tools.
Statistical analyses were performed using IBM SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) Statistics 22 software. Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, frequency and percentage values) were used to assess the results. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to review the goodness of fit to normal distribution.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Woman-Centered Care GroupBehavioural
Each woman in the experimental group was given woman-centered care as from 2 hours postpartum and this process continued until 24 hours postpartum. Physiological parameters (systolic-diastolic blood pressure, pulse, body temperature) of women assigned either to the experimental group or the control group were measured at 2 hrs postpartum. The State, Trait Anxiety, and Postpartum Comfort Scales were pretested. A dynamic interaction was ensured between the researcher and the women in the experimental group who received woman-centered care. In the processes of determining and meeting the care needs of women in the early postpartum period, both the women and the researcher took equal responsibilities and the common goal of achieving safe results was shared. Clinical guidelines were used while providing woman-centered care.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Woman-Centered Care Group | Experimental | Woman-centered care was given to the experimental group. At the time of the study, 6 women were discharged early, 4 women did not want to continue the study, and the babies of 1 women were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit due to complications so these women were excluded from the study. The study was completed with 109 women in the experimental group. Receives: Behavioral: Woman-Centered Care Group |
| Control Group | No intervention | Standard care was given to the control group. At the time of the study, 2 women were discharged early, 7 women did not want to continue the study, and the babies of 2 women were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit due to complications so these women were excluded from the study. The study was completed with 218 mothers, with 109 women in the control group. |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Pre-Test State, Trait Anxiety
The State, Trait Anxiety Inventory consists of two subscales, being state and trait anxiety subscales, and 40 items. The State Anxiety Inventory determines how an individual feels at a certain moment and under certain conditions, and the Trait Anxiety Inventory on the other hand, generally determines how one feels. High scores indicate a high level of anxiety.
Measured: 2nd postpartum hour
Postpartum Comfort Scale
It is a five-point Likert-type scale that evaluates the physical, psychological, sociocultural and environmental comfort of mothers who had cesarean section and normal spontaneous delivery. The lowest and the highest scores that can be obtained from the 34-item scale are 34 and 170, respectively. High scores obtained from the scale indicate that the level of comfort increases.
Measured: 2nd postpartum hour
Systolic blood pressure
All of women were measured from the cubital fossa area using a digital sphygmomanometer. In order to ensure consistency in the measurement of physiological parameters, measurements were conducted on the women using the same devices. The first measurement of the physiological parameters of the women in both the experimental and control groups was recorded when they agreed to participate in the study. The measurement taken at the 2nd postpartum hour will be accepted. It will not be combined with the value measured at another time.
Measured: 2nd postpartum hour
Diastolic blood pressure
All of women were measured from the cubital fossa area using a digital sphygmomanometer. In order to ensure consistency in the measurement of physiological parameters, measurements were conducted on the women using the same devices. The first measurement of the physiological parameters of the women in both the experimental and control groups was recorded when they agreed to participate in the study. The measurement taken at the 2nd postpartum hour will be accepted. It will not be combined with the value measured at another time.
Measured: 2nd postpartum hour
Pulse
Pulse was measured using a digital sphygmomanometer. In order to ensure consistency in the measurement of physiological parameters, measurements were conducted on the women using the same devices. The first measurement of the physiological parameters of the women in both the experimental and control groups was recorded when they agreed to participate in the study. The measurement taken at the 2nd postpartum hour will be accepted. It will not be combined with the value measured at another time.
Measured: 2nd postpartum hour
Body temperature
Body temperature was measured from the forehead using a non-contact thermometer. In order to ensure consistency in the measurement of physiological parameters, measurements were conducted on the women using the same devices. The first measurement of the physiological parameters of the women in both the experimental and control groups was recorded when they agreed to participate in the study. The measurement taken at the 2nd postpartum hour will be accepted. It will not be combined with the value measured at another time.
Measured: 2nd postpartum hour

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Pre-Test State, Trait Anxiety (time frame: 2nd postpartum hour). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05253664, which also lists 6 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Mar 2025.
