简要总结

The goal of this randomized trial is to investigate if using virtual reality (VR) glasses for patients who require non-emergent oral surgery procedures under intravenous (IV) sedation improves their overall experience compared to using standard of care safety glasses.

This study has two primary objectives.

  1. To evaluate if VR glasses can improve patient tolerance during IV access, sedation induction, and the surgical procedure.
  2. To investigate whether the use of VR glasses reduces the amount of sedation required for induction and throughout the oral surgery procedure.

80 subjects will be randomly assigned 1:1 to either wear VR glasses playing a relaxing video and audio or VR glasses that will only serve as eye protection (control group).

研究组 & 干预措施

Virtual Reality (VR) Intervention Group

Experimental

Participants randomized to this group will receive VR glasses with a relaxation module (audio, visual) to wear during IV placement, induction of anesthesia, and during the procedure.

干预措施: Virtual reality (VR) glasses with relaxation module (Other)

Virtual Reality (VR) Control Group

No Intervention

Participants randomized to this group will receive VR glasses without a relaxation module to be worn only as safety glasses, during IV placement, induction of anesthesia, and during the procedure.

结局指标

主要结局

Level of anxiety

时间窗: 3 days before oral surgery, immediately before surgery, immediately after surgery, about 8 hours after surgery

Scores from the General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) will be used to assess the level of anxiety. It is a 7-item instrument with each item scored from 0=Not at all to 3=Nearly every day. GAD-7 total scores for the can range from 0 to 21 with higher scores suggesting more anxiety. The scores are interpreted as 0-4: minimal anxiety, 5-9: mild anxiety, 10-14: moderate anxiety, and 15-21: severe anxiety.

Level of depression

时间窗: 3 days before oral surgery, immediately before surgery, immediately after surgery, about 8 hours after surgery

Scores from the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) will be used to assess the level of depression. It is a 9-item depression screening tool with each item scored from 0=Not at all to 3=Nearly every day. Scores can range from 0 to 27, with higher scores suggesting more depression. The scores are interpreted as 0-4: None or minimal depression, 5-9: Mild depression, 10-14: Moderate depression, 15-19: Moderately severe depression, and 20-27: Severe depression.

Amount of Midazolam used

时间窗: pre-incision, 30 minutes post incision, 60 minutes post incision

The amount of this drug used will be abstracted form the medical record of each participant.

Amount of Fentanyl used

时间窗: pre-incision, 30 minutes post incision, 60 minutes post incision

The amount of this drug used will be abstracted form the medical record of each participant.

Amount of Propofol used

时间窗: pre-incision, 30 minutes post incision, 60 minutes post incision

The amount of this drug used will be abstracted form the medical record of each participant.

Amount of Ketamine used

时间窗: pre-incision, 30 minutes post incision, 60 minutes post incision

The amount of this drug used will be abstracted form the medical record of each participant.
