The research was conducted at the Istanbul Zeynep Kamil Women's And Children's Diseases Education And Research Hospital's Maternity Service between the dates of June 15 and December 31, 2025. It is a randomized controlled experimental research. The data consist of a total of 32 primiparous mothers whose baby was hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit who met the criteria for inclusion in the study. Mothers were divided into groups (16 experiments, 16 controls) by randomization method. The data of the research were collected using the Personal Information Form, the Status Anxiety Scale and the Inadequate Milk Perception Scale after obtaining the permission of the ethics committee and the institution. Virtual reality glasses were applied to the mothers in the experimental group. Only routine clinical care was applied to the mothers in the control group.
Type of Research: It is a randomized controlled experimental research type.February Decembers/Sample of the Research: The research will be conducted between 3 February 2025-31 December 2025 after obtaining the approval of the ethics committee and the authorizations of the institution.
February December 3, 2025-31, 2025, SBU Zeynep Kamil Women's and Children's Diseases Training and Research Hospital Dec. 3, 2025, the universe of the research will be composed of primiparous mothers whose baby is hospitalized in the neonatal unit. Primiparous mothers (a total of 32 mothers) who participated wholeheartedly in the study will constitute the sample.
Working Group Power analysis was performed to determine the number of people to be included in the research. The strength of the test was calculated using the G*Power 3.1 program. As a similar research in the relevant literature, the effect size of the change in the amount of breast milk was calculated as 1.354 in the study conducted by Herlina et al. (2022). In order to exceed the 99% value in determining the strength of the study, it is necessary to reach 26 people, including 13 people in groups with a significance level of 5% and an effect size of 1,354(df=41; t=1,683). In the research, it was aimed to reach a total of 32 people, including 16 people in groups, taking into account the high strength of the test and the losses.
Statistical Analysis of the Data The data obtained in the research will be analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) for Windows 22.0 program. The Kolmogorov Smirnov Test will be used to determine whether the research data are distributed normally. According to the Kolmogorov Smirnov Test, if p>0.05, the distribution is determined to be normal. However, if p<0.05, it is determined that the distribution is not normal and the Skewness and Kurtosis values of the data are checked. If the Skewness and Kurtosis values are between +2 and -2, it is assumed that the variable shows a normal distribution (George, Dec and Mallery, 2010). The homogeneity of the descriptive characteristics between the groups will be tested by chi-square analysis.Dec. For the difference between the averages of two independent groups, the data will be evaluated using the t-test if they are Decently distributed, and the Mann-Whitney U test if the data are not decently distributed. Changes in measurements within the group if the data are distributed normally, repeated measurements will be analyzed by Anova test, and if the data are not distributed normally, Friedman test.
The Hypotheses of the Research H1. Virtual reality application is effective in increasing the amount of breast milk.
H2. Virtual reality application is not effective in increasing the amount of breast milk.
H3. Virtual reality application is effective in reducing mother's anxiety. H4. The virtual reality application is not effective in reducing the anxiety of the mother.
Collection of Data and Data Collection Tools After explaining that the purpose of the research and all kinds of information about them will be kept confidential to primiparous mothers who are hospitalized at SBU Zeynep Kamil Women's and Pediatrics Training and Research Hospital, whose babies receive care in the neonatal intensive care unit and meet the criteria for admission to the research, the Personal Information Form, the Status Anxiety Scale and the Inadequate Milk Perception Scale will be completed by the researchers using the face-to-face interview technique by having those who volunteer to participate sign an Informed Consent Form. The data collection time will take about 15-20 minutes.
The duration and frequency of watching all the designed videos and images will be determined as an average of 15 minutes according to the time of milking and filling the breasts with milk again.
10.6.2 Collection of Data
Experimental Group (Those who applied virtual reality glasses):
Stage: The mothers who will be included in the experimental-application group will first be informed about the study and the "Informed Volunteer Consent Form" will be filled out. Then to mothers (breast milk, methods of milking, etc.) information will be provided about. Before milking, the "Personal Information Form", the "Status Anxiety Scale", the "Inadequate Milk Perception Scale" will be applied. After the application of the forms and scales to be used in the study, 1.the milking process will be performed (If milking is to be done with a milking machine, the device used will be "Babyvacc Model TBM3100".) and the amount of milk milked will be measured (in a plastic 150 ml sized bottle contained in the Milkvacc breast milk milking and storage kit belonging to Ankalaps Company), and attention will be paid to the inclusion of mothers who have never been able to breastfeed for medical reasons in the study.
Mothers in the experimental group will be told about the use of virtual reality glasses (SG) while waiting for the next milking time, and the first 1. Per hour and 2.SG will be applied per hour (1. Practice- 15 min), (2. practice-15 min). 2.2 for a period of 15-20 minutes at the end of the hour. the milking process will be performed.
Stage: After the milking process is completed, the "State Anxiety Scale" and the "Insufficient Milk Perception Scale" will be applied for the second time in the research.
Control Group (Those who underwent routine maintenance):
Stage: The mothers who will be included in the control group will first be informed about the study and the "Informed Volunteer Consent Form" will be filled out. Then to mothers (breast milk, methods of milking, etc.) information will be provided about. Before milking, the "Personal Information Form", the "Status Anxiety Scale", the "Inadequate Milk Perception Scale" will be applied. After the application of the forms and scales to be used in the study, 1.the milking process will be performed (If milking is to be done with a milking machine, the device used will be "Babyvacc Model TBM3100".) and the amount of milk milked will be measured (in a plastic 150 ml sized bottle contained in the Milkvacc breast milk milking and storage kit belonging to Ankalaps Company), and attention will be paid to the inclusion of mothers who have never been able to breastfeed for medical reasons in the study.
Mothers in the control group were given 1 during the waiting for the next milking time. and 2. routine information will be provided during milking per hour and questions will be answered. 2.2 for a period of 15-20 minutes at the end of the hour. the milking process will be performed.
Stage: After the milking process is completed, the "State Anxiety Scale" used in the research and the "Insufficient Milk Perception Scale"will be applied for the second time. After that, information will be given to the mothers in this group about the application of virtual reality.

| Personal Information Form | In accordance with the relevant literature information provided by the researchers (Sari Ozturk and Demir, 2023; Ferraz Dos Santos et al., 2020) developed (Personal Information Form socio-demographic variables belonging to mothers (age, education level, income level, etc.) obstetric characteristics (pregnancy, miscarriage, number and shape of birth, etc.) consists of 33 questions related to breastfeeding and anxiety. | 2 weeks |
| The Status Anxiety Scale | The status-continuous anxiety scale is a self-assessment questionnaire consisting of short statements. It has been adapted to Turkish by Öner and Le Compte. In this study, only the State Anxiety subscale was used. The reason for this is that the Situational Anxiety Scale describes how an individual feels at a certain moment and under certain conditions, and includes a response taking into account their feelings about the situation they are in, Cronbach's Alpha internal consistency coefficient for the situational anxiety scale was found to be between 0.94 and 0.96 in reliability analyses. Dec. The state anxiety scale consists of a scale consisting of a total of twenty items. There is no time limit for responding to the scale. The emotions or behaviors expressed in the items of the state anxiety scale are answered by marking one of the following styles according to the degree of severity of such experiences: (1) none, (2) a little, (3) a lot, (4) completely. | 2 weeks |
| Inadequate Milk Perception Scale | Inadequate Milk Perception Scale Developed by McCarter-Spaulding and Kearney in 2001, the scale consists of 6 questions to determine the inadequate perception of breast milk. The first question that questions whether the mother perceives her milk adequately is in the form of "yes" or "no". The other 5 questions are aimed at measuring the perception of milk Deciency and are scored between 0-10. "0" indicates that milk is completely inadequately perceived, "10" indicates that milk is completely adequately perceived. The scale is scored between 0-50 Dec. A high score indicates that the competence perception of milk has increased. The Cronbach α value was determined as 0.81 in the original of the scale (McCarter-Spaulding & Kearney, 2001). The validity reliability of the scale in Turkish was made by Gökçeoğlu and Küçükoğlu and the Cronbach α value of the study was found to be 0.82 (Gökçeoğlu, 2014). |
