VR training for midwifery students on episiotomy skills
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests if a virtual reality (VR) simulation helps midwifery students learn how to perform an episiotomy (a small cut made during childbirth) and feel more confident in their skills. If you are a midwifery student in your third year at Van Yüzüncü Yıl University and have not learned this skill yet, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You speak and understand Turkish
- You have never been trained on episiotomy (a procedure that cuts the area between the vagina and anus during birth)
- You do not have any medical condition that prevents using virtual reality, like epilepsy
- You are a third-year midwifery student at Van Yüzüncü Yıl University Faculty of Health Sciences

This study tests whether watching videos before class (called flipped learning) helps midwifery students learn about episiotomy—a small surgical cut sometimes made during childbirth. The goal is to see if this teaching method improves learning and confidence.
This study tests whether virtual reality (VR) can help midwifery students learn how to handle breech births (when the baby is positioned feet-first). It compares VR training to usual methods to see which improves skills and confidence.
This trial uses a virtual reality birth simulator to help 4th-year medical students learn about childbirth. It aims to see if this training method is better than traditional teaching.
This study tests whether a mixed reality (combining real and virtual) training tool can help midwifery students learn how to check cervical dilation and effacement during labor. It's for students who are also pregnant women in early labor and want to improve their skills.
This study tests three non-drug methods—breastfeeding, virtual reality, and squeezing a stress ball—to see which best helps reduce pain, anxiety, and stress during episiotomy stitching after childbirth. It may help first-time mothers feel more comfortable during the repair.
This study tests whether virtual reality training helps first-time mothers learn breastfeeding skills. It may make it easier and more comfortable to breastfeed your baby.
