A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial investigates the impact of an informative video on maternal anxiety and the success rate of external cephalic version (ECV) in women with breech presentations. Women scheduled for ECV are recruited and randomized into two groups: one that views the informative video and a control group that does not. The study measures anxiety levels before and after the procedure using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Sonographic data is also collected to assess various factors related to the pregnancy.
