Summary

Aim: This study examined the effects of blood pressure measurement in different positions on diastolic and systolic blood pressure values and anxiety levels in pregnant women diagnosed with preeclampsia.

Method: The study was conducted between March and June 2024 as a pre-test post-test quasi-experimental study with 96 pregnant women diagnosed with preeclampsia in the perinatology department of a training and research hospital. Participants were divided into three groups and their blood pressures were measured in the left lateral, right lateral and semi-Fowler positions. Data were collected using an introductory information form and the State Anxiety Scale.

Conditions

  • Preeclampsia
  • Blood Pressure Check (Hypertension Screening)

Interventions
