Study Summary
Children with acute and chronic illness undergo frequent, painful, and distressing procedures. This randomized control trial was used to evaluate the effectiveness of guided imagery (GI) vs virtual reality (VR) on the procedural pain and state anxiety of children and young adults undergoing un-sedated procedures. We explored the role of trait anxiety and pain catastrophizing in intervention response.
Primary Outcome
GI will be compared to VR when it comes to the Pain Catastrophizing Scale for Children (PCS) to identify subgroups that may respond better to one intervention over another. Patient perceptions of pain will be assessed prior to the first procedure using either the child (for patients 8-16 years) or adult (for patients 17+ years) version of the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS). The PCS is a 13-question survey which assesses thoughts and feelings related to pain on a 5 point scale ranging from "not
