Virtual Reality Distraction Technique to Improve Chest Burns With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Clinical Trial

Official title:
Role of Virtual Reality Distraction Technique to Improve Chest Burns With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Following Smoke Inhalation in Community-dwelling Middle-aged Adults - A Randomized Controlled Study.

Clinical Trial Summary

Inhalation of toxic gases and chemical irritants during the fire leads to damage to the respiratory tract or the alveolar tissue, which is known as smoke inhalation injury. Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is associated with smoke inhalation injury. These patients usually need physiotherapy in the form of chest mobilization and breathing exercises for up to 4 to 6 weeks after discharge from the burns care centre. The patients during this phase are usually in pain and extremely anxious about these exercises. Virtual reality distraction (VRD) is one such technique that is gaining immense popularity recently, it has more immersive distraction when compared to traditional distraction techniques. This study aims to investigate the effect of a virtual reality distraction (VRD) technique as a pain alleviation tool for reducing pain during physiotherapy in burns patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in a hospital setting.

Clinical Trial Description

Burns of the chest region (Chest burns - CB) constitute a common burn (29%) among other types of burn, in which second and third-degree burns are the most common type of injuries noted. Additionally, inhalation of toxic gases and chemical irritants during the fire leads to damage to the respiratory tract or the alveolar tissue, which is known as smoke inhalation injury. Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is associated with smoke inhalation injury, which is one of the infectious complications after a burn injury. According to the present data, the incidence of ARDS in burn patients is about 20 - 56% and is one of the main causes of death among burn patients. Management of ARDS generally includes mechanical ventilation, prophylaxis treatment, proper diet and physiotherapy treatment. These patients usually need physiotherapy in the form of chest mobilization and breathing exercises for up to 4 to 6 weeks after discharge from the burns care centre. The patients during this phase are usually in pain and extremely anxious about these exercises, hence pain and anti-anxiety drugs may be prescribed. Virtual reality distraction (VRD) is one such technique that is gaining immense popularity recently, it has more immersive distraction when compared to traditional distraction techniques like inhibition exercises, meditation or progressive muscle relaxation exercises. This study aims to investigate the effect of a virtual reality distraction (VRD) technique as a pain alleviation tool for reducing pain during physiotherapy in burns patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in a hospital setting. ;
