Clinical Trial Summary

We conducted a randomized controlled trial in 120 patients undergoing an outpatient hysteroscopy (OH). 60 patients were randomly allocated to the control group and 60 patients were randomly allocated to the study group. The intervention in the study group was to use a virtual reality (VR) device (Meta Quest2) as a distraction technique during the OH. We wanted to study if the distraction generated by the VR could improve patients' perceived pain or satisfaction with the OH


Clinical Trial Description

We conducted a randomized controlled trial in 120 patients undergoing an outpatient hysteroscopy (OH). 60 patients were randomly allocated to the control group and 60 patients were randomly allocated to the study group. In the standard hysteroscopy protocol, all patients are advised to take an Ibuprofen 400-600mg or Paracetamol 650-1000 mg two hours before the procedure. They are also suggested to take Bromazepam 1.5 mg two hours before the procedure if they feel anxious. The standard care group had a trained nurse providing distraction and emotional support. The study group had a VR device (Meta Quest 2) with a video consisting of a gondola ride through the canals of Venice with relaxing music played on the headset We wanted to study if the distraction generated by the VR could improve patients' perceived pain or satisfaction with the OH, comparing it with the standard care group. ;
