About this study

The aim of the clinical trial is to examine the effect of a stress ball applied to pregnant women during the active phase of labor on labor pain and labor comfort. The effect of the stress ball used in the experimental group on labor pain and labor comfort will be evaluated. The stress ball applied to pregnant women during the active phase of labor minimizes labor pain and increases labor comfort H 0: The stress ball used during the active phase of labor has no effect on labor pain and labor comfort. H 1: The stress ball used during the active phase of labor increases labor pain and labor comfort. The researchers will monitor the pregnant women from the time the cervical dilation is 3-4 cm (from the active phase of labor) until the cervical dilation is 8-9 cm and the experimental group will be asked to use the stress ball. Routine application will be made to the control group. The pain during labor of the experimental and control groups will be evaluated with the VAS scale. After the birth, the labor comfort scale will be applied to measure labor comfort.
