The Effect of Nonstress Test Device Noise Level on Stress Parameters in

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Introduction: Prenatal tests can increase the stress levels of pregnant women. One of the tests performed to evaluate fetal health during pregnancy is the Nonstress Test (NST). Objective: To evaluate the effect of NST device noise level on stress parameters in primiparous pregnant women. Method: A randomized controlled, prospective study was conducted with 44 pregnant women in a State Hospital in Istanbul/Turkey between 01.02.2021 and 01.10.2021. Personal Information Form, Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory, Hillrom Welch Allyn Connex Spot Monitor, Gluco Dr Glucometer, Extech SL 400 Personal Noise Dosimeter, Sennheiser HD 450BT ANC Over-Ear Bluetooth Headset, Eppendorf Tube, Philips Avalon FM20 NST were used to collect data. A p value of <.05 was considered significant in the statistical evaluation.

Clinical Trial Description

A number of tests are used to evaluate fetal health during pregnancy. One of these tests is the NST. NST is a frequently used fetal evaluation method in gynecology clinics/services during pregnancy and labor. The sound levels of the NST device are created in a way that the healthcare professional can adjust, and at the same time, the average dB(A) range of the sound levels is not known. It has been stated in many studies that noise causes stress in individuals, and that the stress experienced in pregnant women is associated with negative maternal and neonatal outcomes. It is important to evaluate NST noise levels and stress parameters in order to maintain NST, which is a frequently used fetal evaluation method in the prenatal period in clinical practice, without causing maternal stress and to prevent possible negative consequences. With the information to be obtained in line with the results of the research, it is aimed to maintain the noise level of the NST device used by the midwives in the most appropriate sound range for the pregnant women and thus to ensure that the stress levels of the pregnant women are at the lowest level during the procedure. This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of NST device noise level on stress parameters in primiparous pregnant women. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
