Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will be conducted to examine the effect of virtual reality applied during K-wire removal and dressing on the pain and fear levels that develop due to the procedure in children aged 7-12 years who apply to the orthopedic outpatient clinic.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Technology-based methods have now begun to be used to control anxiety and prevent pain that may occur before, during and after diagnosis and treatment procedures in children.

Virtual reality (VR), which is among the technological products, can be used in non-pharmacological methods as well as pharmacological methods.

It has been observed that VR, especially in children, creates an analgesic effect by mainly distracting the pain centers in the brain and evokes positive emotions with an anxiolytic effect.Since children do not want to see the procedures to be performed on them, virtual reality used during the procedure is one of the methods of diverting attention from the environment they are in. This study will be conducted to examine the effect of virtual reality applied during K-wire removal and dressing on the pain and fear levels that develop due to the procedure in children aged 7-12 years who apply to the orthopedic outpatient clinic.

Study Groups

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

virtual reality applied group

Before the K-wire is removed and dressed, the three-dimensional video that the child likes and wants to watch will be placed on virtual reality glasses and attached to the child.

During the procedure, the child will be allowed to watch videos through virtual reality glasses.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

virtual reality applied group

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Before the K-wire is removed and dressed, the three-dimensional video that the child likes and wants to watch will be placed on virtual reality glasses and attached to the child.

During the procedure, the child will be allowed to watch videos through virtual reality glasses.

control group

During the removal and dressing of the wire, the child's attention will be diverted by asking some questions (where she lives, the name of the school she attends, what grade she attends, etc.).

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
