Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Methods: The study was conducted between June 2019 and December 2019 with 120 healthy individuals who applied for blood donation for the first time in Northern Turkey. Individuals included in the study were assigned to intervention, placebo and control groups with 40 people in each group by block randomization method. During the phlebotomy procedure, the intervention group watched a cold environment image via virtual reality, the placebo group watched a hot environment image, and the control group received standard application. "Descriptive Characteristics Form", "Visual Comparison Scale", "State and Trait Anxiety Inventory" and The CONSORT checklist were used to collect data.

group watching hot environment image
A virtual reality headset was placed on the heads of the individuals included in the intervention group one minute before the procedure and a cold environment image called "Peaceful mountain snow" was shown. By starting the image before the procedure, the individual was prevented from seeing the needle and blood. At the end of the procedure, the tourniquet and needle were removed and the virtual reality headset was removed from the individual's head and the displayed image was terminated.
group watching hot environment image
In this study, Sony playstation VR (Virtual Reality) glasses with LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen with OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) technology and 1080P resolution integrated on the device were used. These glasses work integrated with the processor box. The processor box, which provides communication with the Sony playstation VR glasses, can also be connected to the computer with HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) output. Within the scope of the study, the licensed "Peaceful mountain snow" image was shown. This image includes a cold winter day.
Following the completion of every VR session, the removable face pad was replaced and the goggles and headsets were wiped down with alcohol-based sanitary wipes. Preventing infection via the sharing of the technology was a paramount issue with the study patients.
group watching cold environment image
A virtual reality headset was placed on the heads of the individuals in the placebo group one minute before the procedure and a warm environment image called "Deep space relaxation" was shown. By starting the image before the procedure, the individual was prevented from seeing the needle and blood. At the end of the procedure, the tourniquet and needle were removed and the virtual reality headset was removed from the individual's head and the image shown was terminated
