Study Summary

Relief of severe burn wound care pain may require both medications to relieve pain and non-medication interventions,such as distraction. Little is known about distraction's effectiveness. Virtual reality may be an effective distraction. The aims of this study are 1)to evaluate the effect of virtual reality (VR), a newer interactive kind of distraction, compared to passive distraction (PD) by watching a movie, and usual care (SC) that is provided by the nurses, on pain experienced by adolescents during burn wound care and 2)to determine the relationship among anxiety, desire for distraction, and engagement with distraction on the pain.

Primary Outcome

The acute pain experienced during the burn wound care procedure was measured on a 100mm visual analog scale called the Adolescent Pediatric Pain Tool through self-report by adolescents ages 10-17 years receiving outpatient burn wound care. The scale ranges from 0mm (No Pain) to 100mm (Worst Pain).
