Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Virtual reality (VR) group
Immersive education using a 360-degree VR video tour at operation day
a 360-degree VR video tour
At operation day, pediatric patients of the VR group and their parents are educated using virtual tour program explaining preoperative procedures and showing environment of the operating room. A 360-degree virtual reality (VR) video for the tour program was filmed in advance and is provided using a head mount device into which a smartphone is installed, at 30 minutes before the induction of anesthesia.
Control Group
Conventional verbal education of preoperative proceudres
No interventions assigned to this group
