Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Control Group
Participants in this group will receive standard care, which includes preoperative education about the surgical process via an educational video and the completion of informed consent. No virtual reality intervention will be provided during their recovery.
No interventions assigned to this group
2-Hour Postoperative VR Intervention
Participants in this group will first watch an educational VR video about the surgery before the procedure. Two hours post-surgery, they will be exposed to a VR intervention featuring calming nature videos.
Virtual Reality Intervention for Preoperative Anxiety and Postoperative Pain Management (2 hours)
The Virtual Reality intervention involves participants wearing a VR headset at least one hour prior to their surgery to watch immersive, pre-recorded educational videos showing the operating room with a nurse explaining the process aimed at reducing pre-operative anxiety and nature videos with distraction effect after surgery for pain management. The intervention for pain management will be delivered 2 hours after surgery. The videos to be shown to patients will be limited to a maximum of 30 minutes. In addition, all participants will be reminded that they can remove the glasses or leave the study at any time.
4-Hour Postoperative VR Intervention
Participants in this group will first watch an educational VR video about the surgery before the procedure. Four hours post-surgery, they will be exposed to a VR intervention featuring calming nature videos.
Device: Virtual Reality Intervention for Preoperative Anxiety and Postoperative Pain Management (4 hours)
The Virtual Reality intervention involves participants wearing a VR headset at least one hour prior to their surgery to watch immersive, pre-recorded educational videos showing the operating room with a nurse explaining the process aimed at reducing pre-operative anxiety and nature videos with distraction effect after surgery for pain management. The intervention for pain management will be delivered 4 hours after surgery. The videos to be shown to patients will be limited to a maximum of 30 minutes. In addition, all participants will be reminded that they can remove the glasses or leave the study at any time.
6-Hour Postoperative VR Intervention
Participants in this group will first watch an educational VR video about the surgery before the procedure. Six hours post-surgery, they will be exposed to a VR intervention featuring calming nature videos.
Virtual Reality Intervention for Preoperative Anxiety and Postoperative Pain Management (6 hours)
The Virtual Reality intervention involves participants wearing a VR headset at least one hour prior to their surgery to watch immersive, pre-recorded educational videos showing the operating room with a nurse explaining the process aimed at reducing pre-operative anxiety and nature videos with distraction effect after surgery for pain management. The intervention for pain management will be delivered 6 hours after surgery. The videos to be shown to patients will be limited to a maximum of 30 minutes. In addition, all participants will be reminded that they can remove the glasses or leave the study at any time.
