Overview

Brief Summary

This study will conduct as a randomized pretest-posttest study to examine the effect of virtual reality glasses (VRG) application during the IUI procedure on anxiety and patient satisfaction. The population of the research will consist of women who were treated with assisted reproductive techniques and underwent IUI at the infertility polyclinic of Ministry of Health Adana City Training and Research Hospital between May and December 2024 and who meet the research criteria. The research sample was calculated as a total of 90 people (at least 45 people in each group) using the power program. Data; Personal Information Form, Visual Assessment Scale (VAS), State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Patient's Perception of Nursing Care Scale will be collected from women who agree to participate in the research. Virtual reality glasses will be applied to the intervention group.

Data; Personal Information Form, Visual Assessment Scale (VAS), State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Patient's Perception of Nursing Care Scale will be collected from women who agree to participate in the research. These scales will be applied to both groups before and after Intrauterine Insemination (IUI). Virtual reality glasses will be applied to the intervention group during intrauterine insemination (IUI).

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)

Time Frame: The research period for a participant takes approximately 30 minute

State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) was designed to identify individuals' persistent anxiety and the level of anxiety felt towards the situation they are in. A total score between 20 and 80 can be obtained from both scales. Measuring ranges; 20-39 points are considered mild, 40-59 points are considered moderate, 60-79 points are considered severe anxiety, and 80 points are considered panic.

Patient's Perception of Nursing Care Scale

Time Frame: The research period for a participant takes approximately 30 minute

The Anxiety Inventory was designed to identify individuals' constant anxiety and the level of anxiety they feel about their current situation. A minimum of 15 and a maximum of 75 points can be obtained from the scale. An increase in the total score obtained from the scale indicates that the patient is satisfied with the nursing care.
