About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the effect of a video-supported flipped learning model on anxiety and skill levels of midwifery students in episiotomy education. Episiotomy is an important clinical skill in midwifery education, and the method used to teach this skill may influence students' anxiety and performance.
This randomized controlled educational study will be conducted with midwifery students who are enrolled in the episiotomy course. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group or a control group. Students in the intervention group will receive episiotomy education using a video-supported flipped learning model, in which theoretical content is provided through instructional videos prior to in-class activities. The control group will receive traditional classroom-based education.
Students' anxiety levels and episiotomy skill performance will be assessed using validated measurement tools before and after the educational intervention. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to evidence-based teaching strategies in midwifery education and support the use of innovative learning models to improve student outcomes.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
State Anxiety Level
State (situational) anxiety will be assessed using the State subscale of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) to determine students' momentary anxiety related to episiotomy skills training. Higher scores indicate higher state anxiety.
Episiotomy Skill Performance Score
Episiotomy skill performance will be evaluated using the Episiotomy Skill Assessment Form (ESAF), a 40-step procedure scored from 0 to 100, where higher scores indicate higher skill performance.
