Virtual Reality-Supported Psychosocial Care for Women After Perinatal Loss

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of virtual reality (VR)-supported psychosocial nursing care on the psychosocial health of women aged 18 and older who have experienced perinatal loss (≥20 weeks of gestation). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does VR-supported psychosocial care reduce depression, anxiety, stress, perinatal grief, and postpartum depression compared to psychosocial care without VR support? Researchers will compare two groups: VR-supported psychosocial care Psychosocial care without VR support Participants will complete baseline psychosocial assessments during hospital admission, receive psychosocial nursing care based on Swanson's Theory of Caring - with or without VR support - during hospitalization, take part in follow-up interviews on Day 7 and Day 30 after discharge, and continue the psychosocial care process at home, including practicing breathing exercises, keeping a daily journal, and receiving supportive information about coping after perinatal loss.
