The aim of this study is to determine the level of pain and comfort associated with the implementation of virtual reality prior to nursing care in patients undergoing treatment in the intensive care unit. The research will be conducted in the Internal Medicine Intensive Care Unit of a university hospital.
详细描述
The aim of this study is to determine the level of pain and comfort associated with the implementation of virtual reality prior to nursing care in patients undergoing treatment in the intensive care unit.
The study will be conducted in the Internal Medicine Intensive Care Unit of a university hospital. The study population will consist of patients admitted to the internal medicine unit who are between 18 and 65 years of age, are conscious with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 10 or above, have no auditory or visual impairments, and are not receiving mechanical ventilation support.
A total of 60 patients will be included in the study and randomly assigned into two groups: 30 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group.
Data will be collected through face-to-face interviews using a Sociodemographic Characteristics and Information Description Form, a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and the General Comfort Scale - Short Form (GCS-SF).
The intervention for the experimental group will include viewing calming videos using a virtual reality headset before nursing care. Pain and general comfort levels will be evaluated 24 hours after the nursing care procedure.

盲法说明
In the experimentally planned study, patients diagnosed with cancer hospitalized in the 10-bed internal medicine intensive care unit at Eskişehir Osmangazi University Hospital were first evaluated in terms of the inclusion criteria, and individuals who did not meet the criteria were excluded from the study. Eligible individuals were included in one of the intervention group and control groups using virtual reality glasses by randomization method. The lottery method was used to randomize individuals to research groups. In this method, 30 pieces of red and blue paper were placed into 2 black fabric bags by the researcher. Red paper represents the intervention group and blue paper represents the control group. Individuals who met the inclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study were asked to randomly choose a piece of paper from the bags. In this way, the groups were automatically balanced.

研究组 & 干预措施
virtual reality
During care, patients are given a duration of 3-10 minutes. virtual reality glasses (VR box 2.0 virtual glasses) for a total of 15 minutes walks in parks, nature and seaside with music background, with reality glasses (6.5 inches), videos that the patient wants to watch and whenever he/she wants, such as underwater or museum tours. Videos that could be changed were shown.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Pain Level Measured by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Before and After Nursing Care
时间窗: 24 hours
Pain will be assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain). Higher scores indicate worse pain. Pain levels will be measured before care and again 24 hours after nursing care, and compared between the experimental and control groups.
Change in Overcoming Problems Sub-dimension and General Comfort Level (GCS-SF) After Virtual Reality Application
时间窗: 24 hours
Comfort will be assessed using the General Comfort Scale - Short Form (GCS-SF), including the "overcoming problems" sub-dimension. The GCS-SF total score ranges from 24 to 96, with higher scores indicating greater comfort. Scores will be measured 24 hours after the virtual reality application in both the experimental and control groups.
Change in Refreshment/Comfort Sub-Dimension Scale Score After Virtual Reality Application
时间窗: 24 hours
Comfort will be evaluated using the Refreshment/Comfort sub-dimension of the General Comfort Scale - Short Form (GCS-SF). Scores range from 8 to 32, with higher scores indicating greater comfort. Scores will be measured 24 hours after the virtual reality application in both the experimental and control groups.
