Background: As pregnancy advances, maintaining a high Quality of life becomes
increasingly challenging due to fatigue, bodily discomfort and emotional fluctuations. Aim of the
study: This study aimed to evaluate quality of life among pregnant women. Design: A quasiexperimental study design (study and control groups) was used. Setting: This study was conducted
at Obstetrics and Gynecological Out- patient Clinic in Benha University Hospital. Sample: A
purposive sample included (140) pregnant women. Tools of data collection: Three tools were used,
tool I: A structured interviewing questionnaire which included three parts: general characteristics of
pregnant women, obstetrical and gynecological history and current pregnancy profile, tool II: World
Health Organization Quality of Life - BREF, tool III: Women's Satisfaction Sheet. Results: There
was no statistically significant differences between the study and control groups regarding all
subscales of quality of life at pre intervention stage (p > 0.05). While, there were highly statistically
significant differences between the study and control groups regarding all subscales of quality of life
at post intervention stage (p < 0.01). Also, there was a marked improvement in all subscales of quality
of life among study group after implementation of progressive muscle relaxation technique with a
highly statistically significant difference compared to pre intervention (P= < 0.01). There was highly
statistically significant positive correlation between total quality of life score and total satisfaction
score among the study group at post implementation of progressive muscle relaxation technique at
(P= < 0.01).
