Abstract

The study was conducted to investigate the effect of virtual reality on fetal movement, fetal heart rate, maternal satisfaction, fatigue and anxiety levels.

The data of this randomized control experimental design study were collected using the State Anxiety Inventory, the Visual Analogue for Fatigue and the Newcastle-Satisfaction-Nursing-Care-Scale. A total of 88 pregnant women were included in the study. While the pregnant women in the experimental group watched a nature video with virtual reality during the Non-Stress Test procedure, those in the control group underwent the routine Non-Stress Test. The anxiety scores, the maternal satisfaction scores significantly higher in the experimental group. The virtual reality application is effective in reducing fatigue. There was a significant difference only in the experimental group in terms of systolic blood pressure, pulse values, the number of fetal movements and accelerations. It is recommended to have pregnant women use virtual reality during the Non-Stress Test procedure.

虚拟现实对非压力测试期间孕妇胎动、胎心率、产妇满意度、疲劳、焦虑水平和生命体征的影响：随机对照试验。

这项随机对照实验设计研究使用状态焦虑量表、疲劳视觉模拟量表和纽卡斯尔护理满意度量表收集数据。共有 88 名孕妇参与了这项研究。实验组孕妇在无压力测试过程中观看了虚拟现实的自然视频，而对照组孕妇则进行了常规的无压力测试。实验组孕妇的焦虑评分和产妇满意度评分明显更高。虚拟现实应用能有效减轻疲劳。只有实验组在收缩压、脉搏值、胎动次数和加速度方面存在明显差异。建议让孕妇在非压力测试过程中使用虚拟现实技术。
