The Effect of the E-Mobile Health Application on Postpartum Adaptation

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of the e-mobile health application on postpartum adaptation. The study will consist of two groups: Experimental group and control group.

Detailed Description
-----------------
This is a randomized controlled trial. A questionnaire and The Postpartum Self-Evaluation Questionnaire will be used to collect data. The main hypothesis of the research: Postpartum Self-Evaluation Questionnaire total mean score of women who use e-mobile health application created according to Roy's Adaptation Model is not different from the total mean score of women in the control group. Research sample will consist of a total of 62 pregnant women, 31 in the experimental group and 31 in the control group. The data will be evaluated with the SPSS (Statistical Package of SocialSciences) 24.0 package program.

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Postpartum Adaptation | Postpartum adaptation according to Postpartum Self Evaluation Scale. Postpartum self evaluation questionnaire consists of 82 questions in total. The questions are scored between 1 and 4 points. The minimum value that can be obtained from the scale is 82, the maximum value is 328. It is seen that the lower the score in this scale, the higher the postpartum adaptaion of the individual. | At postpartum tenth day (baseline) and last-interview at postpartum sixth week (change from baseline at sixth week) |
