Virtual Reality vs. Standard-of-Care for Comfort During Immunizations in Children

Vaccination Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Pragmatic Randomized Controlled Trial of Virtual Reality vs. Standard-of-Care for Comfort During Immunizations in Children

Clinical Trial Summary

Children need routine immunizations which can be a painful procedure associated with pain and anxiety. This is particularly true of children visiting the children's hospital to visit relatives during flu season. No topical anesthetic or oral analgesia is commonly used.

Virtual Reality (VR) is an immersive experience using sight, sound, and position sense. Using VR may enhance distraction during the painful procedure and may reduce attention to pain.

This study will randomize children (6 - 16 years old) to receive Virtual Reality or standard of care while receiving immunizations. Investigators will measure pain, anxiety and satisfaction.
