About

Objective: The research was conducted to determine the effect of music and nutrition played together with motivational video on non-stress test (NST) result and mother's anxiety level.

Method: The study was conducted as a randomized controlled clinical trial. The sample of the study consisted of 360 pregnant women, two experimental and one control group (120 pregnant women in each). In the study, pregnant women in the first experimental group were provided to consume cake and fruit juice 30 minutes before the NST procedure. The second experimental group was provided to eat fruit juice and cake before NST, and the video created with a similar content was given about the developments and changes occurring in the mother and fetus during pregnancy, and was watched for about 15-20 minutes during the NST procedure accompanied by music that provided relaxation. The data of the study were collected by using the Participant Presentation Form, NST evaluation form and State Anxiety Inventory.

Full description

Non Stress Test (NST) has been used frequently in fetal health assessment in recent years due to its easy application, cheapness, reliability and rapid assessment. False negativity rates of NST also cause an increase in cesarean rates. Studies in recent years show that there are methods and factors that increase fetal movements and shorten NST application time. It was observed that nutrient intake, music playing, fetal acoustic vibration application and halogen light applications before NST increased fetal movements and shortened NST time.
