Clinical Trial Summary

The needles of port catheters, which are often used in childhood cancer treatment, must be changed every 5-7 days, which causes pain, anxiety, and fear in children every 5-7 days In recent years, the usage of virtual reality has grown to distract children during port catheter needle insertion. But it's not always easy for children to switch their attention to something else. A good child distractor must be sensory-stimulating, developmentally appropriate, and highly interactive.


Clinical Trial Description

Today, virtual reality applications have advanced, and software that provides biofeedback with breathing has improved engagement with the user. Our aim in this study is to examine the effect of biofeedback-based virtual reality games on pair, fear and anxiety levels during insertion of port needle insertion in children. The randomized control trial design will be used, and The CONSORT list will be used to guide the research. This study will be conducted at the 62 pediatric oncology patients (31 experiment/ 31 control) aged 6-12 years. This study will be carry out in a university hospital in Istanbul, Turkey between January 2023, and June 2023. The research data will collect from the children's self-reports and parents through a survey form and scales. Children's pain will evaluate by the children and parent with Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale, child fear will evaluate by the children and parent with 'Child Fear Inventory', and child anxiety will evaluate by the children and parent with 'Child Anxiety Statement Scale'. ;
