In the current study, The investigators aim is to test the distraction affect of "Virtual Reality" (VR) technology on pain and anxiety in pregnant women who undergo through an induction of labour with an extra-amniotic balloon catheter
Cholecystectomy is one the most frequent laparoscopic procedures worldwide. It is a safe and effective operation but intraoperative bile duct injury remains a relevant complication with serious consequences for the patient. Most of the complications occur due to a lack of knowledge of the anatomy or misidentification of the cystic duct. Thus, the study of the anatomy is a cornerstone of a successful procedure and the preoperative magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a way to preoperatively determine relevant structures to avoid intraoperative incidents. This trial has been designed to assess the effect of preoperative virtual reality training based on MRCP on intraoperative performance and outcome.
Background and Goal of Study Labor pain remains an area where different analgesia options are looked for, more specifically non-pharmacological remedies are popular. Hypnosis and virtual reality (VR) have been studied with encouraging results. However, until now, the combination of VR and hypnosis (VRH) has not been assessed during labor, although it has shown promising results in other acute pain areas. The VRH4L study will evaluate the efficacy of Virtual Reality Hypnosis (VRH) in reducing pain during labor. Hypnosis is delivered as a standardized therapeutic intervention through virtual reality, using a digital sedation software (AQUA ®, Oncomfort SA). For this prospective, interventional parallel group, monocentric randomized controlled trial full term women who were planned for an induction of labor at the St-Jean Hospital in Brussels from March to May 2021 were included. Women with complicated pregnancies and patients with contraindications to VR were excluded. Patients were randomized in two arms. In the VRH group the patients received a 30-minute session of virtual reality hypnosis when in active labor and had access to standard care. Patients in the control group received only standard care. Primary outcome was the difference in post intervention pain score between the two arms. Secondary outcomes were the difference in pain score 30 minutes after the intervention, vital signs correlated to pain, satisfaction of the experience, interaction with the midwife and prevalence of side effects. Data was analyzed using the student's T test.
With the virtual reality application in patients with bronchoscopy, it is aimed to reduce the fear, stress and tension arising from the possibility of the development of pain and complications in the patients. The research will be carried out in the form of pretest-posttest application with 30 experimental and 30 control groups. The researcher aims to minimize the fear and stress in the patient by applying the virtual reality application to the patient in the experimental group 10 minutes before the procedure and 5-10 minutes during the procedure. The researcher will download the licensed program called 'a walk on the beach' to the virtual reality glasses and the patient will watch this program with glasses. The patient in the experimental group will have to fill in the Visual Analogue Scale, Anxiety Evaluation Form, Anxiety Symptoms Follow-up Form, and Patient Information Form before the procedure. 10-15 minutes after the procedure, the patient will be asked to fill the Visual Analogue Scale, Anxiety Evaluation Form, Anxiety Symptoms Follow-up Form and the Virtual Reality Glasses Application Satisfaction Form. No procedure will be applied to the patients in the control group and they will be asked to fill in the Patient Information Form, Visual Analogue Scale Form, Anxiety Evaluation Scale Form, and Anxiety Symptoms Follow-up Form before the procedure. After the procedure, he will be asked to fill in the other forms again, except the Patient Information Form. Patients over the age of 18, who have no communication problems, no psychiatric problems, who volunteered to participate in the study, and who had local application in bronchoscopy will be included in the study. Patients with psychiatric problems and communication problems will not be included in the study. Before the procedure, the patient will be informed that his/her identity information will be kept confidential and that he/she can withdraw from the research at any time, and all his/her rights will be informed.
According to the latest published literature reviews, stroke patients have a prevalence of 19.5% of minor depression and 21.7% of major depression. Furthermore, the loss of autonomy is the most strongly correlated variable in these emotional disorders. In addition, emotional disturbances - in particular anxiety, sadness, crying, and anhedonia - are interpreted as natural reactions to the loss of physical capacity. Along these lines, it has been shown that the use of Virtual Reality (VR) as a co-adjuvant therapy of neuro-rehabilitation in stroke patients with emotional disorders decreases the incidence of these disorders.
This research was carried out to evaluate the effect of video and accompanying music played with virtual reality glasses during episiotomy repair on women's perceived pain, vital signs and postpartum comfort during episiotomy repair. This research is a randomized controlled experimental study. The study was conducted on 84 pregnant women, 40 of whom were in the intervention group and 44 were in the control group. The goals expected to be achieved during the research are; Reducing the perceived pain during episiotomy repair with video and accompanying music played with virtual reality glasses during episiotomy repair Video and accompanying music watched with virtual reality glasses during episiotomy repair increase postpartum comfort The positive effect of video and accompanying music on vital signs during episiotomy repair with virtual reality glasses
Coronary angiography (CAG) is an invasive method for imaging the coronary arteries. The femoral artery is frequently used during CAG and patients feel pain and anxiety during removal of the catheters placed in the femoral region. These disorders also negatively affect the vital signs and comfort levels of patients. Different methods are used in direct proportion to the development of technology for relieving anxiety and pain caused by invasive surgical procedures in patients. These methods include virtual reality (VR) applications. Innovative, up-to-date and original, virtual reality is the fusion of fiction and technology with reality and imagination. These programs; It is stated that in addition to reducing the patient's anxiety and pain, it makes them feel safe, increases their comfort, care satisfaction and positively affects their participation in care. Acupressure is one of the most widely used non-pharmacological methods to reduce pain and anxiety, and one of the applications included in the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC). Applications made with manipulations such as pressure and rubbing on certain points on the meridians where energy flow takes place in the body are called acupressure. It has been determined that acupressure applications in different areas reduce pain and anxiety and positively affect vital signs and patient comfort. Although there are studies in the literature in which different non-pharmacological methods are applied to reduce pain and anxiety caused by catheter extraction after CAG, positively affect vital signs, and increase the level of comfort, no research has been found in which acupressure method and virtual reality methods developed with today's technology are applied together. In this study, it was planned to reduce the pain and anxiety of the patients, to observe the effects on vital signs, and to increase their comfort levels, with acupressure application and virtual reality methods, which have not been applied non-pharmacologically until now, in patients who underwent CAG.
The aim of this study is to compare between active distraction (video game) and passive distraction (cartoon video) using a Virtual Reality ( VR ) device, in reducing injection pain and anxiety associated with local anesthesia in children.
The project uses virtual reality technology to recreate situations that cause freezing of gait in individuals with Parkinson's disease. Individuals who underwent deep brain stimulator (DBS) surgery for Parkinson's disease will walk through a virtual reality environment while brain signals are recorded from the DBS device. The goal is to better understand what occurs in the brain during freezing of gait.
