Burn Hydrotherapy

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

virtual reality intervention which will take place using a cell phone coupled with the three-dimensional image glasses. The cell phone will play three-dimensional games which will be downloaded for free. The options for images and games involved which children could choose freely, all games will be suitable for the age group of the study.

• The intervention will be applied for three days when hydrotherapy session done
Primary Study Purpose

SUPPORTIVE_CARE

Blinding Strategy

NONE

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Control

The children will receive the standard pharmacological treatment of the unit to manage pain and stabilize their physiological parameters throughout the three days of study.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Virtual reality

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

artificial construction of 3D environment via mobile technology. It included a head-mounted device (HMD) with 3D-enabled goggles, sensory input devices and headphones, which together allow a multisensory experience to divert a child's attention.
