The Effect of Nonstress Test Device Noise Level on Stress Parameters in Primiparous Pregnant Women
Sponsor: Halic University
Summary
Introduction: Prenatal tests can increase the stress levels of pregnant women. One of the tests performed to evaluate fetal health during pregnancy is the Nonstress Test (NST). Objective: To evaluate the effect of NST device noise level on stress parameters in primiparous pregnant women. Method: A randomized controlled, prospective study was conducted with 44 pregnant women in a State Hospital in Istanbul/Turkey between 01.02.2021 and 01.10.2021. Personal Information Form, Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory, Hillrom Welch Allyn Connex Spot Monitor, Gluco Dr Glucometer, Extech SL 400 Personal Noise Dosimeter, Sennheiser HD 450BT ANC Over-Ear Bluetooth Headset, Eppendorf Tube, Philips Avalon FM20 NST were used to collect data. A p value of \<.05 was considered significant in the statistical evaluation.

Stress Parameters Measurement
Pre-Test (0-2 minutes before NST starts) - Measurement of vital parameters (Pre-Test) * Glucose measurement * Taking Salivary Cortisol and Saliva ACTH samples * Filling the Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory • Starting NST by controlling the noise level Interim Test-(NST 10th minute) - Measurement of vital parameters (Intermediate Test) * Taking Salivary Cortisol and Saliva ACTH samples * Filling the Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory • Termination of NST after 20 minutes Final Test(within 0-2 minutes after NST is over) * Measurement of vital parameters * Glucose measurement * Taking Salivary Cortisol and Saliva ACTH samples * Filling the Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory After Data Collection - Recording of data * Centrifugation and analysis of saliva samples taken
