Results from this trial, once available, may inform whether immersive virtual reality enhances engagement and efficacy of mindfulness-based interventions for perinatal mental health compared to conventional approaches. Until results are reported, no clinical recommendation can be made.
This is a registry record for an ongoing, actively recruiting randomized controlled trial with no results yet reported; it describes planned methods and endpoints only.

Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.

Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07606248). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: National Taiwan University Hospital. Recruitment status: RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 100 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Perinatal Anxiety, Perinatal Depression, Maternal Mental Health. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Virtual Reality Forest Mindfulness Intervention; BEHAVIORAL: Conventional Mindfulness Intervention. Primary outcome measures: Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) Score , Baseline (20-24 weeks gestation), post-intervention (32 weeks gestation to before delivery), and 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postpartum; Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) Score , Baseline (20-24 weeks gestation), post-intervention (32 weeks gestation to before delivery), and 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postpartum. Brief summary: Perinatal anxiety and depression are common mental health concerns that may negatively affect maternal well-being, infant development, and family functioning. Mindfulness-based interventions have shown beneficial effects on reducing psychological distress during pregnancy; however, maintaining attention and engagement during mindfulness practice may be challenging for some pregnant women. This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of an integrated virtual forest environment and mindfulness-based intervention for improving mental health in perinatal women. Pregnant women between 20 and 24 weeks of gestation will be randomly assigned to either an experimental group receiving virtual reality (VR)-based forest mindfulness intervention or a control group receiving conventional mindfulness intervention. Both groups will participate in a 9-week mindfulness program and receive app-based mindfulness practice. The experimental group will additionally receive immersive VR forest-based mindfulness sessions during prenatal visits. Outcomes including anxiety, depression, mindfulness awareness, physiological indicators, and intervention acceptability will be assessed during pregnancy and postpartum follow-up.
