Brief summary
Multimedia birth prediction intervention helps mothers and their spouses reduce the number of trips to the hospital, reduce anxiety, and increase self-confidence. A total of 83 couples were accepted for cases, with a 10% attrition rate. so, A total of 95 couples were admitted and divided into the experimental group and the intervention measures were implemented Experimental group.

Detailed description
More than 90% of pregnant women are prone to anxiety and fear due to unexpected and uncontrollable birth signs before delivery and because they cannot control their own condition. Pregnant women who receive prenatal education can reduce their fear, depression, anxiety and stress about childbirth, increase their self-confidence during childbirth, and thus gain a positive childbirth experience. As a quasi-experimental study, cases were accepted using a random method. The number of cases admitted was 83 couples, with a 10% attrition rate. Therefore, a total of 95 couples were admitted and divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group received intervention measures, and the control group received intervention measures. At 37 weeks of pregnancy, at the first visit to the hospital for examination, and one hour after admission, basic demographic and obstetric variables, self-confidence visual analogy scale, and situational-trait anxiety scale-situational anxiety were filled in, and statistical analysis was performed. The methods were descriptive statistics, independent t test, chi-square test, analysis of variance, generalized estimating equations, and linear regression between the experimental and control groups.
Interventions
BEHAVIORALmultimedia
When mothers and their spouses reported to the health classroom on the 37-week prenatal check-up day, the researcher explained the motivation and process of the research. After the women and their spouses agreed to join the study, they were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. The control group will be given general care guidance, while the experimental group will receive general care and multimedia birth control education intervention, and the mothers and their spouses will download and watch the video through Line, an instant messaging software on their mobile phones.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Self-Confidence Visual Analog Scale | Time range: 37 weeks of pregnancy, first visit to the hospital for examination, one hour of hospitalization | 0 points represent the lowest self-confidence and 10 points represent the highest self-confidence |
| Situational-Trait Anxiety Inventory-Situational Anxiety Section | Time range: 37 weeks of pregnancy, first visit to the hospital for examination, one hour of hospitalization | The range is from 1 for almost never to 4 for almost always, with higher total scores indicating a higher level of anxiety in the individual. |
