AbstractBackground: Childbirth and delivery are among the most joyful and stressful parts of a woman's life and could considerably influence the mother and her child's health. Helping mothers reduce their stress and anxiety about this procedure, especially during cesarean sections, may lead to better outcomes. Objectives: In this study, virtual reality (VR) technology will be applied as a potential modality to reduce maternal anxiety and stress during cesarean sections and improve maternal and/or neonatal outcomes. Methods: In this randomized clinical trial study, VR headsets, as a novel technology, will use to reduce maternal anxiety and stress during cesarean section by spinal anesthesia. Outcomes such as maternal stress, anxiety, pain, postpartum hemorrhage, and neonatal outcomes such as Apgar score and respiratory distress will be evaluated and compared with a control group. Conclusions: In conclusion, our study wants to provide an initial insight into the advantages of using VR technology during cesarean section, and we will be able to understand if VR could improve the quality of surgeries.en
