Clinical Trial Summary

This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate patients with decompensated heart failure undergoing an early mobilization protocol with the use of immersive virtual reality glasses compared with patients undergoing the same protocol but without immersive virtual reality. The primary outcome will be the sensation of difficulty breathing, and the secondary outcome will be whether this technology provided a positive experience for patients in the intervention group that was superior to that of patients in the control group.


Clinical Trial Description

This randomized clinical trial aims to assess the sensation of dyspnea in patients undergoing an early mobilization protocol with immersive virtual reality and their experience using this technology. The study population consists of patients with acute decompensated heart failure in an intensive care unit at a teaching hospital. The 3-day protocol will include active exercises with an in-bed cycle ergometer, orthostasis, and ambulation. The intervention group will perform all exercises using virtual reality glasses. The variables will be collected before and after each intervention. ;
