This study aims to evaluate the effect of music played for women who undergo cesarean delivery on their early-stage pain, comfort, and mother-infant bonding levels. The study was conducted with 62 women who had cesarean deliveries and were hospitalized in the Obstetrics Unit of Bilecik Training and Research Hospital. Participants were randomly assigned to either an experimental group or a control group. Music in the Acemaşiran mode was played for 20 minutes twice, at the 8th and 16th postpartum hours for the experimental group, while the control group received routine midwifery/nursing care practices provided in the clinic after cesarean delivery. The study is designed to assess whether listening to music after cesarean delivery influences postoperative pain, comfort, and mother-infant bonding levels.
