Study Summary

This study explores the use of virtual reality (VR) to reduce pain and anxiety during thyroid biopsies and PICC line insertions under local anesthesia. One group experienced the procedure with VR, while the other group did not. Participants completed questionnaires before and after the surgery to measure pain and anxiety levels. The main goal is to observe if VR can significantly decrease pain and anxiety during these procedures.

Primary Outcome

Pre-procedure pain assessments were obtained using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) corresponding to the patient's expected level of pain during each procedure prior to randomization to treatment or control. VAS scale was measured in mm, 0mm indicating "no pain", 100mm indicating "worst pain." Following each procedure, participants completed a self-reported survey indicating actual pain felt during procedure on VAS scale.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Virtual Reality
  • PROCEDURE Standard Procedure Thyroid Biopsy
  • PROCEDURE Standard Procedure PICC Placement
