Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the Holistic Care Program for High-Risk Pregnancies on the stress levels and mental health of pregnant women. Within this framework, the study seeks to examine the potential of the holistic care program to strengthen stress coping mechanisms, positively influence mental health, and enhance general health awareness among high-risk pregnant women.

The study was conducted using a randomized controlled trial design between April 1, 2024, and December 31, 2024, at a maternity hospital in Istanbul. A total of 100 high-risk pregnant women were randomized into two groups: 50 participants were assigned to the group receiving the holistic care program along with routine midwifery care (intervention), and 50 were assigned to the group receiving only routine midwifery care (control).

The Holistic Care Program for High-Risk Pregnancies consists of three sessions: Physiological Information and Preparation for High-Risk Pregnancy, Psychological Support and Preparation, and Creative Practices and Final Evaluation.

Research data were collected using five forms: Informed Consent Form, Demographic Information Form, Perceived Stress Scale for High-Risk Pregnancies Based on Neuman Systems Model, Brief Symptom Inventory, and Holistic Care Program Evaluation Form for High-Risk Pregnancies.
