Description
Background: Pregnant women experience lower quality of life compared
to the general population and experience a decrease in their quality of life
as their pregnancy progresses. Video interactive provides an interesting
and interactive environment, so participants would be more likely to enjoy
completing their physical activity regimen.
Purpose: This study aimed to determine the impact of video interactive-
based exercise on quality of life among pregnant women in Indonesia.
Methods: A quasi-experimental study was carried out in Bandung, West
Java, Indonesia from August 2023 to January 2024. The intervention and
control groups involved healthy pregnant women aged above 18 years
old, second trimester pregnant, advised by healthcare, literate, and willing
to participate in physical activity. The study involved 264 pregnant women,
with a response rate of 96%. Data was collected before (T0), immediately
after (T1), and 2 weeks after the intervention (T2). The videos covered
combination of exercise program for pregnant women, including warm-up,
main phase (with an aerobic element, followed by strength and endurance
exercises) and final stretching and relaxation. quality of life was measure
using quality of life Gravidarum. The analysis was evaluated using repeated
ANOVA test and difference-in-difference estimate.
Results:After a two-week follow-up, the intervention group showed a
substantial increase in quality of life scores, with a moderate level of impact
(effect size= 0.39). The difference-in-difference estimate showed a modest
increase of 3.57 percentage points between groups.
Conclusion: The study demonstrated that video interactive exercise
significantly improved the quality of life for pregnant women, indicating the potential for encouraging their participation in such activities.
