Study Overview
Brief Summary
To investigate the effect of virtual reality on painful menstruation in adolescent female
Detailed Description
The focus of relatively recent work has been on non-pharmacological pain management techniques. The usage of virtual reality (VR) devices that can replicate three-dimensional (3D) immersive worlds is one particularly exciting advancement. This technology is becoming more widely available in healthcare settings and has shown promise in lowering pain and anxiety levels for people receiving minor gynecological disorders, dental work, burn wound care, and labor. So, the research purpose is targeted to look into the impact of virtual reality combined with diaphragmatic release as an active relaxation technique on painful menstruation in adolescent female
