Tools: two tools were used to collect data: Tool (1): A structured interviewing questionnaire and Tool (II): The Mackey Childbirth Satisfaction Rating Scale. Results: The present study revealed that the maternal childbirth satisfaction means score in the virtual reality group was higher than that of the control group (P< 0.001).
