简要总结
The study is looking at whether wearing a virtual reality device will help reduce pain and anxiety during minor procedures
详细描述
Patients who are undergoing minor plastic surgery procedures will be assigned to either wear a virtual reality device or to listen to music of their choice. Patients will still get the standard lidocaine/novocaine numbing agent. Patients will be asked questions about their anxiety level and pain level. Heart rate and blood pressure will be monitored as measures of anxiety and pain.

结局指标
主要结局
Blood pressure
时间窗: 1 hour
Systolic and diastolic blood pressures (mmHg) at the half way point of the procedure as well as 1 minute after completion of the procedure. Blood pressure will be measured as a surrogate measure for objective pain. Blood pressures will be averaged for each cohort. The data will be collected by Dynamap automated Blood pressure monitor.
Subjective Pain
时间窗: 1 hour
Subjective pain measured using the 11-point Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), which is widely employed and is a validated measure of pain (17) at the half way point and 1 minute after the procedure.The scale name is Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) it is a validated scale for graphically measuring pain. The scale range is 0-10 (11 point scale). 0 is no pain. 10 is intolerable pain. The values on this scale will be averaged for each cohort.
Heart rate
时间窗: 1 hour
Heart rate at the half way point of the procedure as well as 1 minute after completion of the procedure will be measured in beats per minute using pulse oximetry. Heart rate will be measured as a surrogate measure for objective pain. Heart rates will be averaged for each cohort.
次要结局
- Patient Satisfaction(1 hour)
- Anxiety(1 hour)
