Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study was planned to determine the effect of virtual reality glasses on anxiety, fear, and physiological parameters in cancer patients aged 4-10 years undergoing intrathecal chemotherapy. The main questions that the study aimed to answer are as follows: * Could virtual reality glasses affect the fear experienced by children undergoing intrathecal chemotherapy? * Could virtual reality glasses affect the anxiety experienced by children undergoing intrathecal chemotherapy? * Does virtual reality goggles have an effect on the physiological parameters of children undergoing intrathecal chemotherapy? Researchers will compare the effects of virtual reality glasses on fear, anxiety, and physiological parameters (heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation) in children with cancer undergoing intrathecal chemotherapy to a control group that will not receive any intervention. Cancer patients participating in the study will be given virtual reality glasses before intrathecal chemotherapy treatment.
