Study Overview
Brief Summary
Regional anesthesia allows surgery without affecting the patient's level of consciousness.However, this may cause anxiety in some patients.In previous research, scientists have tried to prevent anxiety with non-pharmacological interventions such as music and cognitive therapies.Virtual reality is thought to offer an immersive experience that can alter the mind's perception of pain. Scientists have found in previous preliminary studies that virtual reality is safe and effective as an adjunct to standard sedative/analgesic protocols for reducing patients' pain and anxiety during endoscopy, colonoscopy, dental treatments, burn dressings, and labor. In this study, it is expected that anxiety scores, postoperative analgesic need and intraoperative sedation need will decrease, recovery quality will improve and patient satisfaction will increase in patients who will undergo upper extremity surgery under regional anesthesia and watch videos through VR glasses.
