This study was conducted as randomized controlled study to evaluate the effect of Therapeutic Touch on acute pain and comfort level in women who delivered by cesarean section. Personal information form was used as data collection form, VAS was used to assess pain, and PPCQ was used to assess comfort. When power analysis was performed, the sample size was calculated to be at least 45 participants for each group (45 experiments, 45 controls). Experimental group received deep Therapeutic Touch by investigators two time at 10th and 40nd hours after cesarean section.
Introduction: The postpartum period is very important and is a suitable period for women to gain healthy lifestyle behaviors. Studies in the literature show that women with high quality of life have a more comfortable postpartum period. If the needs of women are not met in the postpartum period, there may be an increase in traditional practices for mothers. For this reason, postpartum education is very important for maternal health. Various ways can be used to provide education to mothers. With the development of technology, education given over mobile applications has often found a place in studies. The face-to-face education format, on the other hand, remains up-to-date. It is not known for certain which form of education is superior to the other. Testing the superiority of these two training methods to each other will eliminate the question marks in this area. Purpose: To determine the effectiveness of WhatsApp-based and face-to-face nursing education and counseling given in the postpartum period on mothers' quality of life and traditional practices. Method: The experimentally planned study will consist of three groups including WhatsApp, face-to-face and control group. The universe of the research will be composed of women hospitalized in Sivas Numune Hospital Aseptic Service. A total of 180 people will be taken into the sample of the research, 60 of which are in the WhatsApp experimental group, 60 in the face-to-face experimental group and 60 in the control group. Training videos for the postpartum period will be sent to the WhatsApp experimental group via WhatsApp. Face-to-face training will be given to the women in the face-to-face experimental group by the researcher, and the handbook containing the training content will be distributed to the women. Women in both experimental groups will be supported by providing counseling over the phone (message, meeting if needed). No attempt will be made to the control group. The participant introduction form and the Turkish version of the world health organization quality of life scale (WHOQOL-BREF-TR) will be used to evaluate the data of the study. The data will be evaluated with the SPSS 28 program.
To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of W-PPMA among a diverse group of postpartum mothers.
This is a pilot randomized control trial to demonstrate the feasibility of a novel model of dyad-centered, doula-coordinated, midwife-delivered postpartum care located in the NICU in a large urban hospital.
The aim of this prospective study is investigation of efficiency and safety of medical device "Magic Gyno" in accordance with the stated purpose. To assess the condition of the vaginal walls and vulva before and after laser treatment, the following methods will be used: gynecology examination, vaginal health index, clinical blood test, vaginal flora examination, vaginal pH. International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) will be used to collect feedback on changes in the participants life quality. Total up to 70 participants with pathology of pelvic organs will be involved in the study. Participants will be divided into two groups: group with genitourinary symptoms and group with vaginal relaxation symptoms, by 35 participants in each. The time intervals between tests will be the same for both groups. The main hypothesis of the study is improvement in condition of the vaginal walls after laser treatment compared with the condition before treatment.

A randomized controlled trial of two different regimens of intermittent catheterization in women with overt postpartum urinary retention. Participants will be randomized to one of two groups with different cut-offs for accepted postvoid residual urine (150 ml vs 250 ml). Primary endpoint is be the time to regain normal bladder function in each group. Secondary endpoints are 1) presence/absence of bacteriuria or urinary tract infections, 2) the duration of hospital stay, 3) scores on the adapted version of the German pelvic floor questionnaire section about bladder function and postpartum symptoms.

The research team has designed, and will test, a web tool to support traditional Maternal Education (EM). This tool is organized into 4 areas: 1) Information área; 2) Communication área (with peers and with professionals) 3) Self-management health area(instruments to check or reflect on their own health needs, as well as decision algorithms to detect the time of delivery and postpartum alarm symptoms); 4) Clinical data área (the woman can have her clinical data, include it and share it with other professionals) The objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the EMAeHealth tool and also its implementation in the real world (its usability and acceptability, by women and professionals).
