What this trial studies

This interventional study tests a structured health education program about vaginal and cesarean delivery among primigravida women in their third trimester. It uses a quasi-experimental, two-group, pretest–posttest design with 120 participants (60 in the education group and 60 in the control group) at Women's Health Hospital, Assiut University. Baseline and post-intervention assessments measure knowledge, attitudes, and preferred and actual modes of delivery. The intervention group receives an illustrated Arabic booklet and structured education; the control group receives routine antenatal care. Outcomes include changes in knowledge, attitudes, delivery preferences, and actual mode of delivery after the program.
