Roy Adaptation Model-Based Prenatal Education

Roy Adaptation Model-Based Prenatal Education: Roy Adaptation Model-based prenatal education will be provided face-to-face by the researcher to pregnant women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. The education will be delivered in two sessions, one week apart, with each session lasting approximately 45 minutes. The educational content will address hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, blood pressure monitoring, healthy lifestyle behaviors during pregnancy, stress management, adaptation to physical and psychosocial changes during pregnancy, and seeking support from healthcare professionals. Participants will also receive a blood pressure monitoring chart for home monitoring. The intervention is specifically structured according to the four adaptive modes of the Roy Adaptation Model: physiological-physical, self-concept, role function, and interdependence.

Study summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of Roy Adaptation Model-based prenatal education on perceived stress and quality of life in pregnant women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.

Pregnant women with hypertensive disorders who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group or a control group. Participants in the intervention group will receive prenatal education based on the Roy Adaptation Model in two face-to-face sessions, one week apart. The control group will receive routine antenatal care. Blood pressure monitoring will be recommended for participants in both groups.

Perceived stress and quality of life will be assessed before the education and after the intervention. The study will investigate whether Roy Adaptation Model-based prenatal education helps reduce perceived stress and improve quality of life among pregnant women with hypertensive disorders.
