Summary
This interventional study evaluates whether video-based patient education regarding Trial of Labor After Cesarean (TOLAC) reduces maternal anxiety compared with standard verbal counseling. Pregnant women eligible for TOLAC will be randomized to receive either a structured educational video or routine verbal counseling. Maternal anxiety levels will be assessed using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI).
Detailed description
Trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC) is a complex clinical decision that may be associated with significant maternal anxiety. Adequate counseling is essential to support informed decision-making; however, the optimal method for delivering information remains unclear. This randomized interventional study aims to assess whether video-based patient education can reduce anxiety levels compared with standard verbal counseling. Eligible pregnant women planning delivery after a previous cesarean section will be randomly assigned to one of two study arms: video-based educational counseling or standard verbal counseling. Anxiety will be measured using the validated State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) questionnaire after counseling. The results of this study may inform future strategies for patient counseling and shared decision-making in women considering TOLAC.
