The Effect of Biofeedback-Based Virtual Reality Game on Children

The Effect of Biofeedback-Based Virtual Reality Game on Pain, Fear and Anxiety Levels During Insertion of Port Needle in Children

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Mar 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The needles of port catheters, which are often used in childhood cancer treatment, must be changed every 5-7 days, which causes pain, anxiety, and fear in children every 5-7 days In recent years, the usage of virtual reality has grown to distract children during port catheter needle insertion. But it's not always easy for children to switch their attention to something else. A good child distractor must be sensory-stimulating, developmentally appropriate, and highly interactive.
