The aim of this study is to determine the effect of mindfulness breath awareness meditation (MBAM) on health profile, vital signs, and fetal heart rate in pregnant women with preeclampsia.

Sample size:

  • There will be two groups in the study.

  • Vital signs (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, body temperature, pulse, respiration, oxygen saturation) will be measured immediately before the first application. They will then be refilled at the same time every 24 hours for 72 hours. Vital signs will be completed a total of four times.
  • Fetal heart rate and fetal movement count will be measured immediately before the first application. They will then be refilled at the same time every 24 hours for 72 hours. Fetal heart rate and fetal movement count will be assessed by Non-stress Testing (NST). The pregnant woman will undergo NST for 20 minutes.
