Study Summary

The investigators propose a pilot study to examine the feasibility of utilizing immersive virtual reality to reduce procedural anxiety in children undergoing non-facial laceration repair in the Pediatric Emergency Department. The investigators hypothesize that virtual reality will be well-received by patients and their caregivers, and that the anxiety provoked by laceration repair will be mitigated by the immersive virtual reality experience.

Primary Outcome

Anxiety score will be measured on a Visual Analog Scale. This scale consists of a 100mm line on which parents mark their estimate of their child's anxiety level, with anxiety level increasing from left (0mm) to right (100mm).
